    Default Wow - Keeping a food journal

    I started keepign a food journal today. I woke up at 8am, it is now 10:50
    And I have already consumed 1,300 calories. A whole days worth, in 2 hours!

    Writing everything down is very eye opening. And this started as a healthy day. I had a bowl of total cereal, 2 glasses of juice. The thign that fucked me up was 3 slices of pizza, (820 cal)reheated from yesterday, and a can of sprite.

    If this is how much I've already had, before the day is over, I bet consume over 3,000 calories. Wow.

    Now i realize how totally unrealistic I've been.

    At least tomorrow is another day to start over and try again. And i can go to the gym today and work some of that off, plus working tonight can work it off.....but wow.....I had no idea i ate that much. I'm lucky I've stayed as thin as I am, with how bad I ate and how little i worked out.

    It is definately a good idea but three slices of pizza definately does not make this a healthy day!

    Good luck!

    Yeah, keeping one really opened my eyes too. Not so much the food though. For me, it was the alcohol... I realized I'd been consuming like 1000 calories in drinks every friday and saturday night!

    LOL. Theres about 1,000 in 1 drink of mine, if I make it at home!
    There is about 400 if I drink it in the club.

    I guess even just 1 drink a night isn't to good.

    People tend to drastically understate their calorie consumption if they do not track their food. I estimated myself around 2,000 before I started keeping a journal. It was more like twice that! Ack!!

    Yeah, I usually just stick to straight shots with orange or cranberry juice chaser. But it adds up... There's like 100 calories in just one shot of vodka.

    I used to religiously keep a food journal. It really helped me a lot. Now, my healthy eating is pretty much habitual.

    Don't worry, Kaylinn...my weakness is pizza, too...Yum! There's this local place here called, "Rami's" that makes the most delicious homemade cheese pizza...such a doughy, soft-crusted goodness... and, and the cheese.....

    I've been keeping track of what I eat again in the "What's for Breakfast/Dinner" threads in the lounge. It's like a food journal right here on SW! Works for me!
