Ok, here we are at 5 weeks. Week 5 has been a good week week but not great. I did not take a day off and that is two weeks in a row without a day off. Drum roll please……
Exercise:

Figure 1: Runtastic Distance with Steps: This chart was created by Runtastic with steps from my FitBit.
During the fifth week, I had a decent week of exercise. I walked a total of 49.6 miles and averaged 7.02 miles per day. I did not take a day off which makes two weeks of straight exercise. I did add in 3 sets of push up and setups every other day with 20-40 of them per set. This increase in strength exercises should add some to my weight maintenance because the more muscle you have, the more calories you burn.

Figure 2: FitBit Steps for Week Five: Above is another depiction of the steps of the Fitbit Dashboard. The Fitbit surge is the source.
The above image is the 7 day graph of the steps for week five. I walked 86,542 steps foe an average of 12,670 steps per day.

Figure 3: Runtastic Graph for Week: Above is another depiction of the distances of the Runtastic Dashboard. I use man iPhone for GPS to get the distance.
I burned 2349 Calories this week. That is over 2/3 of a pound lost for the week just through exercise. My calculations and the fit bit agree with this measurement.

Figure 4: Fitbit Distance for Week Five: Above is a depiction of the distance out of the Fitbit dashboard. I use a Fitbit Surge is the source.
My best day for exercise was Sunday. I did 42 miles this week and averages 6.2 miles per day.

Figure 5: Fitbit Active Minutes for Week Five: This graph shows the active minutes per each day of the fifth week.
I had 595 active minutes for the fifth week and averaged 93 minutes a day.

Figure 6: Fitbit Calories Burn for Fifth Week: This a graphical representation of the number of calories burned each day during the fifth week.
I consumed approximately 1600 calories per day and burned 3400. That means about 1/2 pound per day lost. This would be 3.5 pounds lost in a week.
Weight:

Figure 7: Fitbit Dashboard Weight For Week: This a graphical representation of the weight progression over the past 7 days.
Clearly, the Fitbit and my actual weight do not agree this week. The Fitbit said I should have lost approximately 3.5 pounds in a week. The first week I have lost a total of 16 pounds in 5 weeks and 4.9 pounds this week. That is an average of over 3 pounds a week. The weight loss is gradual so you can see I am doing it by combining exercise and calorie restrictions.

Figure 8: Lose It Weight One Week Graph: It is a measure with an additional day. IT give you an idea of the features in Loseit.com. I prefer the nutrition features in Loseit over the FitBit dashboard.
Nutrition:
So how did I complete week three successfully. I continued to take in 30-45 grams of fiber and averaged 100-128 ounces of water. I maintained about 1400-1800 calorie per day. I reduce my candy intake this week but I could use more protein.

Figure 9: Lose-it Calorie Intake: A graphical representation of the calorie intake for the last 7-14 days. I averaged about 1300-2220 calories which is a deficit on the average of 800 calories a day or 5600 calories a week. That is just under 1.5 pounds on weight loss from my diet.

Figure 10: Lose-it Calorie Intake by Meal: This graph is a graph that show the percentage calorie intake by meal.
The one glitch I can see in my diet is that too many of my calories are in snack and too few are in my lunch meal. I would decrease the snack and dinner and add more to breakfast and lunch if I were making a suggestion to others. This has continued for 2 weeks. I need to find more time to eat launch.
My fiber consumption was 20-35 grams per day this week. I can tell a difference if I have less fiber. I am considerably more hungry.
