Day 28: Hungry, Anyone?

The weight loss continues, but I've noticed over the past couple of days I've felt hungrier. For a while I was able to get by on 1,100, 1,200, sometimes, 1,300 calories most days without really getting hungry, but so far this week I've been feeling hungry. I don't know if it's because I've increased the cardio, or what's behind it, but my calorie count has risen a bit as I've been eating a little more.

That's got me thinking a little about modifying my eating plan some, but I'm going to give that a little more thought and maybe blog on that later this week, once I hit the 30-day mark.

For today, everything went relatively well, both in eating and working out. It's late, and I'm overdue for bed, so I'll make this one a short post as well.
