Total - 2130 calories
I'm not going to feel bad about that number because the majority of what I ate was healthy, Paleo, protein-dense foods, and way below the kind of numbers I've been hitting this week. I'm going to try to move away from grains like bread, crackers, etc. unless I come in way below my calorie deficit.
I feel like the smoothies were a really great thing in my diet, so as soon as I'm back at university I'll start incorporating those again. The ideal is, eventually, to be able to burn enough calories through high-intensity exercise like kickboxing and running that I can eat 2000 calories a day of smoothies, salads, good quality/free range meat and eggs, and nuts without gaining weight. I'd rather overexert myself physically and sleep better, look better while eating more, than look skinny and malnourished. Part of me thinks that I'd look even better at 70 kgs whilst exercising a lot and eating Paleo, than not exercising and dieting at 65.
We're back on Thursday so that will cut out all of the restaurant food (I can't afford to eat out that much at home, boo). Excited to launch into a good long stretch of eating high protein and exercising again.
