So I am off and running today on eating healthier. I know a month from now this will be old hat for me, but right now, I am worried about going over my calories and my exercise is minimal at the moment. (I opted for a 15 minute walk on the treadmill today...) I don't really know what I am doing yet so I am being overly cautious.
I was worried in getting a nutritionist that I would be stuck on the six small meals a day, food pyramid, splenda train. I am more of a whole foods person, I spent a lot of time with a previous trainer/nutritionist getting information on eating things that are really healthy. I learned a lot and it really worked for me, but how long did it last? I need it to be something where I can eat McDonald's. Once I fall off the wagon, I make it worth it...in a bad way. I am thinking if the Spike Day is part of the program then maybe I just change my eating habits around a little.
I don't usually eat breakfast at all and talking to Russ, that is just fine. It never keeps me from being hungry at the same time, so I feel like I am just losing out on food I could eat later when I really want it. Today, when I got hungry, I got really hungry. I wanted to be a bit conservative on my food today so I ate 2 cups of vegetables and a really terrible 2% cheesestick, an hour later a salad, then a burrito and ended up grazing through the night. I am not going to take a dive on my first day of eating healthy, but sweet Jebus, I was hungry. I am, in fact, still hungry. I wish I would have just sat down and ate until I was satisfied, the grazing never took the hunger away and I still managed to be under the low end of my calories. I am at the end of my day and the gnawing feeling in my stomach...still there.
