FOOD DIARY

Food Diary
Year Three
“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” Philippians 4:13
HEALTHY AND THIN IN 2010
As you can see I actually wrote this on Friday but due to major computer problems at home I am just now getting to post this blog. I hope to have all computer problems solved in the next couple days and should be on time next week or this week!! Well is has come to the end of our first monthly competition. Most of you know about and feel the pain of the cardio competition. Well the results are in and I did not quite do enough!! Boo Who!!! But I am very proud of the winner!! Lisa you did an awesome job! Congrats!!!!!! Go buy yourself something special!!!
Now our next competition is a Food Diary. I have been keeping a food diary for a long time. Now I am not saying that I have always as faithful at writing it down but I do try. However, we not only are to write down what we eat but it had better be healthy when it comes down to the wire because that may be the tie breaker. A food diary holds me accountable just as much as the scales come weigh in! So get those pens and pencils ready and log in those bites of everything!!!!
If you have never kept a food diary you need to know exactly how much of the food you eat. Just writing down chicken will not do. You should record -4 oz. boneless skinless grilled chicken breast. I know you are saying I do not have time to do this. Make the time!! Not just because of the competition but because we want to eat healthy. Be sure to record everything!!! Even a bite of cake at the office. Everything counts! Many times we eat unconsciously and when we try to record everything at the end of the day, well, some of us are a little older and cannot remember what the heck we ate. I try to make out my daily allowance of food, write it all down and then stick to it! Good Luck to all of you!!!
Does the bad weather make you hungry?????? Many times when we cannot get out of the house because our regular scheduled day has been turned topsy turvy we find ourselves at a loss as to what to do and suddenly we are ready to cook or eat. When the weather is really bad, as it has been lately, my mind wanders to baking. I want to bake brownies or pound cake or anything I do not need to be baking. Lately I have turned to cardio to take my mind off the baking. Just was curious if your mind works the same way. Send me what you do to keep your mind off the munchies!!
I would love to hear from you. Email me at healthierfaith@yahoo.com. Thank you for following along on my journey. I promise 2010 will be more interesting than 2009!!!!!!!!
