Codi is Back!!

I entered in the food (planned to eat today, except for dinner as I am unsure of that until tonight), and it shows a nice balance:
fat = 25%
carb = 64%
prot = 11%

= 655 calories so far

**Calculating my activity level as "moderate" (3-5 times workout per week), minus 500, I should be eating 1600 calories per day.

Im 5'6" and weigh 129, 26yrs old.

Hhhhmmm, so that means I need to eat 945 more calories today. but i didnt workout today, so maybe i can cut a few hundred since i wont be burning much today.
 
I've used fitday and didn't care for it much. Currently, I'm using , and have been satisfied with it so far.
 
Last nights dinner....well, I ate a odwalla choco-walla bar around 4pm. Then ate a bunch of Cheez-Its crackers (ugh! so bad!) then got to school and had a coffee. thats it for last night.

this morning - no work out, as usual on fridays due to late night thursdays.

bkft: flax seed wheat waffle with redu fat pb & honey, 1 cup strawberries, 1 kiwi.
lunch: probably soup
--didnt bring snacks today. will cook something at home for dinner.

shopping for Maine winter clothes after work!! yay for shopping!

Are you tracking all this?

Yes, I started yesterday after you scorned me about it. ha ha, kidding.
I can customize more tonight/this weekend so I can see the nutrition facts on the foods at home. I can already tell that I will need to adjust my meals, such as, adding more protein but I need to get a few days logged before I can really tell what changes to make.

Usually dinner/evenings is when I start falling off the "healthy eating wagon", but this week I have done fairly well. I have eaten grilled chicken and grilled venison for dinner.

Ok, so start posting your food logs along with your workouts. :)
 
Last week was bad with eating and exercising. Not sure what happened, probably hormones.

This week I hope to get back on track.

Didnt work out this morning. I didnt sleep well.

I will try to copy and paste my food log, I have to make it a habit first. Its so much work to keep track of it all, but I know I need to do it sooner or later to monitor my results.

Bkft: ww flax seed waffle, 1 cup strawberries, 1 kiwi, 2 cups ff milk with hersheys syrup.
snack: yogurt
lunch: soup
snack: apple
dinner: unplanned.
 
I have almost decided to get a gym membership to increase my motivation and get a personalized workout and meal plan from a PT. So after work today Im going to a gym that seems very cool to see what they have to offer. They have $0 enrollment and a $75 admin fee. not bad. just wanting to know what the monthly damage will be. They are 24/7 which I like because I will most likely workout in the morning before work, use their showers, etc. Its pretty convenient, basically in between my house and my work. I get a free session with a PT, free FitPoint Assessment (dont know wtf that is but im sure i will like it), and a $50 life spa certificate (i like!).

i just cant seem to stay motivated to work out alone right now, maybe in the future. i will stick to this forum and stick to journaling. im hoping a gym will help me get motivated and stay motivated.

multi-grain chips and salsa
6 bagel bites
1 string cheese
1 fat free jello pudding cup
1 skinny cow ice cream sandwich

bkft: ww flax seed waffle, 1 cup strawberries, 1 kiwi, 2 cups ff milk w/hersehys choc syrup.

Just be wary of the high pressure sale - some places are known to be pretty unscrupulous in that regard. Good luck.
