So, it's APRIL!! and I haven't blogged or made any sort of effort towards my diet since my last post. Again, always the best of intentions, VERY LITTLE follow through.
I'm making a real effort now. Gave myself a goal 60lbs in 60 days. Can I do it?? I guess we'll find out. Going to be posting my weight and measurements and update that once per week.
Yesterday started off with a bang. I actually remembered to bring food yesterday. I'm hypoglycemic and that means that if I don't eat when/what I should, I have a bad reaction and then will fall back on junk food to bring my sugar back up to par. So, where I normally consume around 2000+ calories for the day prior to even leaving work, yesterday I consumed a grand total of 1150.
I'm not starving myself though, I literally ate all day yesterday. I was full all day. I didn't have a single sugar crash and I only consumed 3/4 of a dr. pepper. So far today, 635 calories and it's 1pm. If I stay on track I will still consume less than 1200 calories today. I am basically cutting my intake in half, and upping my water consumption
Dr. Pepper is a big deal for me, it's seriously like my personal crack or something. I drink 3 or 4 per day, breakfast, lunch and dinner and maybe another if we are out running errands or something. Cutting that alone is saving me tons of calories.
Anyway, I'll get better about putting pen to paper so to speak and figuring out how to make this work, because frankly I'm uncomfortable in my own skin.
