We look like we have similar goals, Kalia! My question for you is...how do you plan to cut your calories to 1500/day? My problem always has been that I do really well cutting out the snacks and lessening my portions throughout the day, but by dinner-time, either because I've gotten too hungry with all my portion-control or because I feel so proud my how well I've done all day that I feel I can afford to, I then seem to over-indulge at dinner, thus ruining the whole day. Do you have a more effective plan to cutting calories?
Yes, I want to know that, too.
I have to keep a food log or I cheat all over the place. I have a sheet for the week that lists 6 food groups with their alloted serving (vegetables--4 servings, breads--5 servings, meats--2 servings, milk--3 servings, fruits--6 servings and fats--3 servings). I eat 300 calories for breakfast, 400 for lunch, 200 for a snack and 600 for dinner. I also keep a talley of my glasses of water a day (I drink 8 total--2 at each meal to help fill me up). I did this last year and lost 20 lbs but then cheated like mad when I had almost reached my goal, hence I'm here now, back at square one.
by the way, I failed to mention that Kaila is factotum
Great idea...thanks!
I'm down 3 1/2 lbs!!!
