Quit Smoking 4/08, Next…

Well I like the way I ate today alot better than yesterday. Low cal diet feels alot easier, more natural, more healthy, to me (than low carb I tried yesterday).  I ate less snacks today than previously too.  And I only ate the  2 snacks when I was here at my Food Journal, and I suddenly realized I had only eat 1100 calories today! LOL- I thought, that means I can eat a few more calories and still loose! Well not a great theory I know, but hey…gimme a break! I am actually doing really good. I am getting ready to go swimming for 30 mins to an hour.  And I said I wasnt going to exarcise at all when I began this diet July 1st!  YAY for me  Any way I had abnout 60% carbs, 20% fat amd 25% protein. It felt good.

Good night folks! and good luck! Remember:

I tried to have a low carb day. I was doing real good, and even ended with a 12% carb intake, sounds good right? But I messed up at the end of the day. I fetl it would be ok to eat some low carb snacks. Alot of them. Stupid I know. When I entered the facts in my food journal, I saw the bad results.  Having nearly half of my intake be FAT doesnt seem good to me (42%). Is that really any better than having it be half  carbs but less fats? If I had stayed on my Low CAL version of my diet, I would have had less calories for the day overall but more carbs… which is better? I am so confused….I know I should not have had the snacks….but if I do have a snack, is a low carb high fat one  any better than a hi carb low fat one? Or are both just bad bad bad?!

 Maybe if I go exercise I will feel better!

Today is going ot be a low carb day. My goal is less than 25% carbs.

I should not have had the milk for breakfast! But I can still prevail.
I brougt a very low carb salad with me to work for lunch.
I will drive to the park nearby and eat it at a picnic table. I love doing that :).
