Hey Everybody!
Wow, I'm glad to have found this forum. I don't have much of a support group so I hope this will be a nice way to stay motivated. I've been overweight for a few years and I'm sincerely tired of it. I hate the way I look. I can't count how many times I've laid awake in bed and promised myself the next day that I would change the way I ate and how frequently I worked out. Well, recently I've really been watching what I eat and I've been going to the gym twice a day. I like going in the morning because if something comes up later in the day and I can't go after work, I still have had a good workout. I don't overdue it really. I just do some cardio and burn about 400 calories per workout. Also, working out more has made it so I can go to sleep earlier. I sit in front of a computer all day and if I don't get any physical activity in there, I stay awake until the wee hours of the night.
One thing that I really want to improve on is how frequently I'm eating. I have a really bad habit of getting involved in something at work and skipping lunch. I actually forget to eat lunch. Isn't that crazy? It will be like 4 or something and I'll finally feel hungry and have no idea where the time went.
Anyway, heres what I ate today.
Breakfast:
Bowl of Kashi Cereal
7 Triscuit Crackers
Lunch:
Yes I forgot to eat lunch today
Dinner:
2 servings of Healthy Choice chicken and rice soup. Yum!
I drank crap tons of water and I take a multivitamin.
I know what I did today for diet wasn't exactly the healthiest thing but tomorrow I will be better. I'm going to set a reminder to eat lunch. I know I should probably eat small 5 times a day but I really don't have time for it. So 3 times a day will have to do.
