Weight and Body Fat
Ha! The weight loss
continues! 1.1 kg weight loss and 1.5 kg loss of body fat so far!
Breakfast
Today, I increased my running distance to 5 km.
I believe my body has
switched to fat burning. I not much need to eat. Once more, I
skipped the breakfast.
Lunch
Today I noticed that they do not only have Double Hamburgers, but
also Double Cheeseburgers. So I had one. As they don't provide the
nutrition flyers at "my" McDonald's, I estimated its
calories later.
I found that I prefer
the Double Hamburger to the Double Cheeseburger. All the Cheese with
the Double Cheeseburger somehow covers the taste of the two beef
patties.
My research on
McDonald's US nutrition web page lead me to the estimation that the
Double Cheeseburger has about 480 calories. Which is almost the
calories of a Quarter Pounder with Cheese (530). So I'd either go
for the Double Hamburger (110 kcal less, great beef taste), or the
Quarter Pounder with Cheese (530 kcal, great taste).
Dinner
As my current goal is to lose weight, my strategy is to eat only
when I feel hungry, and basically eat only as much that I would not
feel hungry afterwards. So for Dinner, I had 6 Chicken McNuggets.
Later, I felt hungry again and had 6 Fish McDippers (without sauce).
The Fish McDippers are the lightest product you can have at
McDonald's, if you spare the fries and desserts, which may be
considered less healthy than this "protein packed finger
food" (the description of Fish McDippers and Chicken McNuggets
you find on your tray liner in Singapore McDonald's Restaurants).
Even later, I had
another 6 Chicken McNuggets and a Hot Apple Pie. I kept the yoghurt
for later.
The second pie on the
receipt - a Pineapple Pie - I kept for tomorrow morning, when I want
to run 10 km. I'll need something sweet in my stomach for that.
Oh, by the way - the
weight loss motivated me to exercise some crunches for my tummy.
Calories
Today I had 1.586 calories.
