Second Day... 23 hours and counting
So its day number 2- almost an hour into it and im doing my best not to stuff my face b/c im up working late tonight.
This is HARD WORK. Everyone says oh just chew gum! Oh just drink water! Oh just blah blah blah... what do i say? Oh just SHUT UP! It does not work. I can sit and drink water till i do nothing but pee the Hoover Dam and it doesnt fill me up.
Im trying to do the eating every few hours thing to keep everything stablizied and my energy up. So ive started this day off with a small container of yougurt , some juice, and some wheat bread with cheese. I wont eat again till 7 or 8 am and then ill probably eat again at 2 pm b/c i have to be gone all morning. So im trying to eat stuff that will fill me and keep me full for more than 20 min.
So far today:
Calories- 350
I know that sounds like a lot but in reality it really isnt.
I didnt get much exercise in yesterday b/c ive been sick. So here shortly ill be taking a mile walk down the road and back. Im trying to do 10 miles a day in intervals- like 1 mile here and 1 mile there. Space it out. It usually takes me only 20 min to walk a mile. I also count when i go shopping into my walking. My goal is to get up to walking 10-20 miles a day doing every day things- like shopping and walking for exercise and treadmills and every other piece of fitness equipment you can think of. Anything that keeps me moving.
I really want to invest in a bike. But how doy ou know your getting a good machine? Ill write another blog about that later.
Anyways, the love of my life has been very supportive of this. Which im grateful for b/c i need all the support i can get.
