calorie counting, not quite possible for me
General No Comments »hi all,
sorry ive been out for a couple of days. these past few days have been so hectic and non stop. i was in a meeting on tuesday from 4pm until midnight! it was nuts!
ok well a few things. i did my weigh in yesterday and i was at 225.4! so a loss of 1.6 lbs. nothing huge, but i still lost!
also, i realized that as much as I would love to specifically calorie count all of my foods, on things like fitday and the like, i just cant because i dont cook, and dont know the nutrition on most of the foods i eat. the dining halls do post nutrition information on most of the foods they serve, but not everything, and i also dont really know how to estimate ounces. so as much as i want to exact calorie count, it just isnt really possible. another thing ive realized is that i am often in situations where i am given a meal as part of a meeting. and therefore, my choices of what i eat are not as flexible and more about portion control. which i think ive been pretty good at.
also this weekend i have a huge family function, one with lots of food etc. this will be a true test.
back to complete food journals tomorrow.
ta ta.
