Today I realized I have not consistently eaten enough fiber over the past couple of weeks, so I added FIBER to my short list of nutrients to track- an easy thing to do on Sparkpeople.com. I made sure to get extra fiber in today, and I will strive to reach the top of the recommended range in fiber daily. Today I had over 1600 calories but because I had a turkey burger instead of fish for dinner, I ate below the recommended fat amount (drats- I forgot the sliced avocado. The broccoli and cauliflower must've thrown me off!).
So now that I'm getting my eating squared away, I am trying to increase my fitness efforts. I haven't been losing anywhere close to 2 lbs a week, so I'm kinda bummed. But I feel very proud of my fitness efforts. I played racquetball this morning before work and I wasn't in pain all day as I thought I'd be (but I was sleepy). Now I'm thinking of trying to run- it'll be slow, of course, and I'll probably limit it to after dark/before sunrise when it's coolest. I just want to get this weight off of me ASAP without starving myself. I know that eating raw will accomplish that quickly, but I live in dread of losing more hair. I'm thinking that I should start eating vegetarian during my weight loss and then incorporate raw very slowly as I continue to lose weight but am much closer to my goal. I don't know though- I change my mind every few days!!
