Worked upper body tonight at the gym, I think I might be sore tomorrow! I one of my old food journals tonight and landed on January 23, 2007. Let’s see for breakfast I had cereal, no telling what kind, I’ll give myself credit and say it was Special K! Along with the cereal I had grapefruit and yogurt and I know it wasn’t greek yogurt, it was most likely Dannon none fat yogurt. For my AM snack I had another yogurt, lunch consisted of beef chow mein?! I had some veggies with that, broccoli and carrots. For my PM snack I had pineapple and for dinner I had Weight Watcher meal Chicken Carbonaro. Oh, looking down the page I had dessert too, it was a Weight Watcher cake, I didn’t put what kind! My totals I listed for the day were: 1255 calories, 17 grams of fat 230 carbs Wow!! I wasn’t afraid of eating carbs that’s for sure!! 40 grams of protein, pretty low and 114 grams of sugar. There’s a place at the bottom for notes, I noticed I wrote “too much sugar for the day” haha!! I must have not cared too much about all those carbs I ate! I did exercise that day. I weight trained for an hour, total body and after that I stayed and did cardio on the Elliptical for 45 mins.
I have to get these journals scanned so, you can look at them, they’re a little embarrassing, but I want you to see how the progression over time with my nutrition became so much better. I really like the way I eat now, I feel in control of what and how much I eat, and I think that’s a big accomplishment.
Until tomorrow, enjoy the evening! ~Betsy
