Keeping an Eye on What You Eat

I'm back!

Sorry about the long pause with posting, i had a very busy week, it was very productive though. I meet a few people that could be potential clients, and made some friends over the last few days. All in all, it was a great, tying week.

This week i want us to continue on the path that we set out on last week, we started out with sleep and making note of everything we eat. I hope everyone got adequate sleep, and is feeling energize for whats to come. The exercise of writing down what we eat is so important, especially for those of us who eat based on emotion, for instance eating when bored, sad, or happy. Over indulging in foods as healthy as that food may seem can sabotage the goal of losing weight. As mentioned in an earlier post, understanding your BRM (check post on counting calories for info.) and how it relates to your weightloss should be made first priority. Losing weight is not about starving or depriving yourself of the foods you love, it is more about knowledge and discipline.

Challenge

Continue to write down everything you eat and the quantity, this week though, i want you to review last weeks log and pay close attention to when you are eating the most. We are going to look for "the problem times" of the day so to speak, meaning the times when you find yourself eating not because of hunger. In addition to that, you are going to eliminate two foods from your list that is unhealthy, and replacing them with fruits and/or water. Stay healthy and have a super week.

Contest

Only two days left on the contest, i am happy with the participation, and look forward to announcing the winner on Wednesday.

  1. Absolutely love the challenge you have because it has helped me a great deal since I have been working out on a daily basis (prior to you posting on the blog) and would encourage anyone to do it. Proud of my 24.5 lbs weight loss and counting =)

  2. I am not really consistent with the challenges, but just with the little changes I made I was able to lose 7lbs. It's amazing, I feel like a new person, and that's only 7lbs, I know I can do better and I will. Thank you so much for all the help and advise.
