Old Breakfast vs. New Breakfast

Old Sunday breakfast: Mt. Dew or Diet Mt. Dew, 5 slices bacon, 4 eggs with added milk cooked in bacon grease, two or three biscuits.

New Sunday breakfast: Coffee with skim milk and zero calorie sweetener, 2 slices bacon with the grease blotted off immediately, 1 egg and 3 egg whites cooked in olive oil, mini whole wheat pita with hummus, 1/2 banana, and a multivitamin.

Old Sunday breakfast calories: 1242-1617, depending on Dew / Diet Dew and whether or not I ate that third biscuit.

New Sunday Biscuit calories: 437, and that was a lot of food! I feel like I got as much or more to eat as before, and I am full enough that I don't think I will be snacking.



This will be my biggest meal of the day.

Fruits & Veggies

Seven servings of fruits & veggies - probably 8 if you count all the lettuce I had at lunch. Second day of 30 min. exercise. I set my goal at 10 minutes, but once I start I might as well do 30.

Packing Healthy

I am having trouble counting calories - I have no idea what half of the stuff in my kitchen has in it. I have bought a lot of stuff fresh. Most of it is packaged at the store and doesn't have calorie counts. I hate counting calories and spending time logging them in. It's hard, but until I learn some healthy habits, it's the only way to hold myself accountable.

I am going to try to eat healthier. I plan to try and eat at least 3 servings of fruits & veggies a day. I have prepared tomorrow's lunch, and it is a salad (lettuce, 'artisan' greens, organic baby carrots & organic cucumber) with asian ginger dressing, fresh sliced papaya, seedless grapes, a mini whole wheat pita with hummus, and water. I have cut the diet sodas.
