Daily Eating & Tracking

Still working on the whole eating thing.  I am not a clean eater, I vow to eat balanced and moderate.  The biggest issue I have is I love chocolate...
Truly I am a chocoholic!

 

I do not imagine that I will ever stop eating chocolate, I may go insane if that happened!  But I am working on having only the serving size.
Today I did get my food recorded for breakfast, lunch and my snack.  It looks like I will be working out later this afternoon, as I am a few 100 calories away from my goal for the day.
Recording calories and watching serving sizes can be tedious but when I think of the alternative, eating whatever whenever, then it's worth it. 
When I got back into logging my food, I had ended up with 2,000 calories, that first day. 

There were two problems with that:
I only have a three-day-a-week marathon schedule. 
I hadn't logged all the food I would normally eat.

I was well over 2k in calories a day, running 3 days a week. It is no wonder I put on so much weight!

Recording calories, watching serving sizes and making sure you get in fitness is a full-time job.  But if you don't do it, you can be doing too much or too little and hurting your weight loss goals.

My breakfast today was minus one ingredient: raisins

Cream of Wheat
Almonds
1/4 scoop of Muscle Milk
Honey

Lunch was a sandwich:

Whole Wheat Bread
Romaine
Tomato
1 slice of Ultra Thin Colby Jack Cheese ( these thin slices are awesome! )
Cantina Traditional Tostitos

Snack:

You guessed it!  Those Hershey bars up top ( but had the serving of 4, of course!)

It is hard to share my sweet tooth addiction, but I must do it!

I did get to talk to my cousin today and realized I needed water, so I did start to get that in.  It was great talking to her and discussing fitness, weight and eating.  Sometimes it helps to talk about your goals, where you are currently at and where you still need to get to.

Guess I'll see what workout I do today and what we have for supper. 

Have a great Friday!!
May your goals be reached!
