I was hesitant this time around to "commit" to any particular diet... I started going to the low-carb boards, lurking around the SB boards, and reading the Mediterranean Diet boards... I just want to eat healthy and get active, ya know?
I am not going to go "low carb", but just cut out sugar, white four, and starchy carbs. I am not doing SB, but I like its idea of "good carbs" and "good fats". I guess I am going to follow more of a Mediterranean style nutrition plan, only keeping it within certain calorie limitations... Although, I am not sure what those limitations are yet.
Anyone else kind of making up their own way that fits them? I figure that if it all boils down to energy in vs. energy out, then calorie awareness is key for weight loss. Considering I have high blood pressure, bad blood work, and family history of cancer and heart disease, I am going to count my calories while eating the Mediterranean way so that I get bad fats out, and good fats in.
Just watch me shrink!
