Eerika's Diary

I took a calorie counter for few weeks from internet and its just great cos I can count the cals so easy now. (It costs, so thats why just for few weeks.)

Today I ate 1659 calories (106 g proteins, 140 g carbs, 73 g fat and 12 g fibres). I also worked out for two hours today so the consumption has been nice today!

The calorie counter is really awesome.. You can feed your own recipes there and it gives you all the nutritional values! Like I did today, I got information of my meatball recipe. :)

I find it so hard not eating after evening meal. I do feel a bit hungry and I was almost putting another meatball in to my mouth! Oh, I really must stop eating any extra. Argh. Well I put the meatball back to fridge though. :D Why is it so hard to start dieting again..

Morning coffee WAKE-UP!

OMG!! I finally counted the cals I get from my morning coffee... Fortyfour is definitely right how much needless calories you can get putting cream into your coffee instead of skimmed milk! Hmm.. How in the hell Im going to get rid of my 10% Coffee cream???!!!!! :cry: And I got the real nutritional values of the cream from this finnish calorie counter site, and I weighed the cream while putting it to my coffee this morning. So, Im a bit muddled about this. :D The cream I DRUNK today included 116cals (3g protein, 4,4g carbs and 10g FAT!!) I mean no way! I must learn to drink something else than this cream which is sabotaging my diet! :D

Ive been thinking also the sallad dressing thing.. I COULD save so many calories by eating something else than the dressing I buy from the grocery store... Im going to find some information from internet today how to make your own sallad dressing. And then I will compare which one would actually be better. The calorie counter really helps me now, otherwise I wouldnt bother to count the nutritional values myself.

P.S. My weight is going doooown AGAIN slowly but surely: 87,2kg this morning. Im so fuckin' pissed to these readings, I want 85kg here NOWWW!! :D Im like bouncing between 86 something and 88 something!! ARGH! So sick of this, and now Im agry and going to goddamn morning jogg!!!!!

Im so in love with the calorie counter, really! Now I dont have to worry have I eaten too many calories because I know exactly how many Ive eaten!! This is so great, Im already hooked on it.. Probably have to make longer deal after two weeks! Today I realized that this could really be something I CAN control: my diet & work outs. So many things are not up to myself, but at least this one is. Got weird satisfaction of the idea! :D

Today I had 1819 calories (144g protein, 120g carbs, 85g fat and 11g fiber). I think I did very well.. I also exercised for two hours today (jogg and body pump)!

2 hours- you are superwoman!

I know its frustrating not seeing the scales move much, but they WILL!!!!!!

I was the same as you when I first started counting calories :eek: It was nice to have the exact number. I use myplate.com, it analyses your food as well. But your one is probably better if you have to pay for it.

I can't believe how many cals are in cream!
 
im shocked with the cream...as i was shocked from the calories are in mayo...i knew it wasnt good for you but i think its evil.I wont have mayo ever again.Even on my cheat days i had hot dogs and didnt put mayo in...
So you must get rid of the evil Cream OR get rid of something else you eat in the day for that ammount of calories.
DOnt worry you're getting to the 85!Slowly but steady!
 
Thanks girls for the comments!! :)

This morning I halved the calories of my morning coffee! I put only 20g of cream instead of ..60g in my first cup. In the second cup I put 60g of 2% milk which included only 27cals and 0,9g of fat. But the milk is higher with carbs? Thats what is shows.. I think Im going to change to 2% milk right after I finish my coffee cream bottle. Milk is also much cheaper ofc. The evil cream will go dooooown!

Jasper, I bet mayo included lots of calories!! And FAT! In Finland we dont really use mayo except if we make some fine food.. But Ive noticed that swedish people do use it everywhere cos their grocery stores are full of things made of mayo (like sallads)!

Rainbow, It is very frustrating to not see the scale moving.. OR if it does, it goes up. :D Im not so motivated as I was in the beginning of my diet.. Like yesterday in the body pump lesson I felt like shit. Didnt wanna work out at all and I bet I looked like lazy fat spaghetti in there with my light weights. I was standing beside my instructor and I saw how she was yelling to us (=me) to put much more weights to the barbell cos I did the work out with only few kilos instead of my 15kg. :toetap05: Well maybe I had a bad day.

Do you have these Les Mills lessons in your countries?? I wish I could be some day some kind of spinning / body pump or step aerobic instructor.. :rolleyes:

Im feeling GOOOOOOD today!! How about you my friends??? :) Sun is shining and life is beautiful! Didnt weigh myself this morning and now Im going to shop something nice for myself! xoxo
 
I'm feelin' gooood too my deary :D Glad you've cheered up from yesterday!

Did you buy anything nice?

I think that being an aerobics instructor would be a great job for you, you have the physique for it with your defined arms, and you wanted to join the police, which is sort of similar, except this this job you would be the exersice police :) I can just see you doing it. GO FOR IT!

Everyone has bad days hun, I don't know if it was hot in Finland yesterday, it was here tho, and I know someone else who just didn't feel like doing it either. A bad day is just a bad DAY. Not a bad week, or a bad month. Just one day, and in the grand scheme of things it doesn't matter. At least you went to the class, rather than thinking "Fuckit" altogether.

I can just imagine the cream doing an evil warlock cackle :)
 
Hi lovely! Glad you're feeling a bit better today. I think that was today? ;) I hate when you really don't feel like exercising but you just drag yourself out to do it, thinking that you will get into the groove on it for a bit... but then you just feel like shite the whole way through it.

But I totally agree with rainbow - good on you for still going!
 
Oi, Eerika!!!! This is a long shopping trip, did you fly to New York? :)

Hope your still feeling great. GET BACK HERE MY LADY!!!!!!!! x

Oh! Im sorry I havent been here in a few days... Umm, where would I start.

I havent been able to stick with the diet in the last days. I kind of fell again.. Ive been eating kebab, french fries, hamburger, some candy.. Holy shit! I mean, I cant remember what is sallad anymore! Ha!

But there is something behind this, why Ive been eating. Because I am emotional eater, Ive obviously eaten all of that food for some reason. Im having a looooot stress about one thing. Im really afraid I could be pregnant. :willy_nilly: Oh my... What have I done. LOL.

My head is just a mess at the moment. And I cant really keep on going untill my periods appear.. Or I get the positive result from.. you know what!
Ive had these reaaaaallly weird stomach cramps and pains like the periods would be starting but NO! Ive been suffering from the pains for 3-5 days already. First it was just a little twinging under the right ovary and now it is stronger pain, but its weird cos it goes away and comes back! And I woke up last night and the other night to this pain! I was so sure my periods were just starting.. Oh. Usually my periods start and the pain comes later.. And the periods shouldnt start in a two-threee days! Im SO FUCKIN' CONFUSED!

Ive talked about this with my bf and he seems to be so sure Im JUST pregnant! LOL. But this is the reason why my diet is suffering again.. Not a little worry really. But Ive done the wrong thing cos Ive been eating for this.

I havent been able to say/ or ask anything from my mom about this.. She is a nurse, but this is way too sensitive thing now. I took them yesterday to Oulu where they started their summerholidaytrip togehter with bikes! They are crazy cos they are going to bicycle to the south, like 700km!! But they are in a amazing condition and perfectly able to do it.. :) I just couldnt say anything to them cos they would be just thinking about me for their whole trip then :D

Do a pregnancy test - that way you get clarity. If the pain continues go see your doctor - no point in worrying about the unknown.
 
I don't want to scare you..... but.... I have been pregnant three times, and every time I have had period pains without the period.

One sided pain ISN'T GOOD though, because it could be an ectopic pregnancy where the foetus is growing in the fallopian tube instead of the womb, and that can be really dangerous. I know you probably don't want to, but do a pregnancy test asap. xxxxx

Also, however stressed you are, stick with eating well! That way you will have one less thing to be stressed about!

Ah, I bet your mum and dad are going to have a great time, I love that pic.
 
I did the test yesterday and it was negative. I think it was too soon to make the test. Im going to do another one tomorrow morning.. I bought Clearblue's sensitive test, which should show the pregnancy earlier than the other tests.

And I know the period pain belongs to pregnancy, or thats what Ive read. And the pains started when it was about one week from the assumed ovulation.. So IF I would be pregnant, the pains could be from embryo attaching to the womb.. The pains havent been intolerable though. Just like period pains. Ive always very bad period pains..

This is so comical, cos I booked time to councelling bureau two weeks ago to get a prescription for contraceptive pills... And I should go there tomorrom morning! So I REALLY wish the test will show the real result tomorrow morning before I go to see the nurse. Tomorrow it is 27 cycle day of 28...
 
Oh no, I hope it's nothing serious. :( My period was really weird the last time. My stomach hurt _so_much_ like for a week before they were supposed to start. I knew I couldn't be pregnant, but still it was pretty worrysome. I almost went to see a gynegologist. I might have to do that anyway cos they've been so irregular lately. But anyway, since you obviously don't want to get pregnant, I hope you aren't! ?
 
Well, Ive never had this kind of pain in my lower stomach.. And it is exactly same kind of that the period pains. Except the feeling under my right ovary. Im going to tell about this to nurse tomorrow when Im seeing her. We will see if I get some results!

Baby would be just a huge shock, I definitely wouldnt do abortion.
 
Ive been browsing internet too much lately about this pain of mine! Im glad Ive talked about this with my bf, so IF it would be a baby, we have talked about it already.. That it could be it. But cos it isnt planned, so sure it would be a "shock" and something I would think a lot.. I dunno, I cant get any sleep cos Im waiting for the morning and my time to go to the hospital. :( I hope its not anything bad, Im a bit afraid. But if the embryo would be growing in the fallopian tube, the pain would be much worse Ive heard?? At the moment Im feeling just twinging in my lower stomach and right ovary. This is so mysterious!!
