Good Friday morning!!! Its a brassy, muggy morning here at 7:56 am!!
Things done this morning.......
get out of bed...check
drop the hubby off at work
check
first cup of coffee.....check!!
writing in my diet journal....Check!!!
I have a Dr appointment today at 10. This will be my official weigh in since I started this diet on saturday.
After counting the calories in what I have eaten this week, I have set my calorie intake to 1800 calories a day. Most days I struggle to get to 1200!! I am going to rearrange my eating, so that I eat my biggest calorie meal in the afternoon for lunch, and then eat a light supper.
My biggest problem was mostly WHEN I ate, along with WHAT I ate.
As far as I am concerned, you can't eat 700 to 900 calories or more for supper at or after 6:00 pm, and then snack on things until 11:00 and expect to lose weight .
I know I will do much better eating this way, and I have no problem fixing something for my hubby to eat, and me just eating a good salad!!
I know there are people out there who will say what is the difference when you eat, as long as you cut your calorie intake. Thats all well and good maybe for them. But look at it this way, do you want all those calories fermenting in your gut all night long???
Not me!!
When I eat this way, I try to count my carbs, and to reduce them as much as I can, and I never count fat. I DO read labels, and try to limit the saturated fats and sodium and carbs and cholesterol, but I also look at the ingredients!!! I cut out anything with MSG, Artificial sweeteners, corn syrup.....
things I can't pronounce.......
Reading labels is a lot more than just the calories, fat and carbs!! For me......I have to get into a better way of eating again, and stay there!!! I have to make better choices! More water, more fresh food, less packaged and processed stuff.
Thats it for this morning, going to get some business out of the way, go to the Dr, and be back on here this afternoon.
Until then, Keep the fight going!!! I'm right here pulling for you!!!
