Today is the first day of my new diet. I'm using this word, not as a short term way to lose weight, but instead for what it really means: the way I eat regularly.
I talked with JR, my trainer, and he made some recommendations. I started last night and we're gonna see how it goes.
He recommends two weeks with no "bad carbs". "Bad carbs" are the delicious ones. You know, bread, pasta, potatoes, rice. Then slowly introduce one carb a day, per week. For instance, after the first couple weeks, if I want a sandwich, I can only have one piece of bread.
He also recommends not counting calories unless I'm already eating healthily. Since I have not been, he thinks this has been an issue. If I only limit my intake via calories, I can still eat junk, just a limited amount of it. Unfortunately, junk is still that - junk.
So, we have come to a crossroads, it seems. I started this blog to track my calories daily, or as near to daily as possible. Now that I'm doing things differently, should I still blog everyday?
I want some feedback from those of you that read this blog regularly. I joke about it only being 7, but seriously, if you read this, do you want me to continue blogging about general things regarding my weight loss? I will also continue with faith and general life issues, if people are genuinely interested in what I have to say (and I would contend that many are not).
So please let me know via comment here or on Facebook if you'd like to keep reading my thoughts.
