Good Morning! Well, if you read yesterday's post, you know that I had some changes to make. One of them was to start logging my protein, carbs, and calories again. It's been well over a month since I've last done this! That's not good and I needed my hand slapped a month ago!
So today is Saturday and the morning is kind of a slow one. Good thing because I had time to go dig out an old column pad book that you would normally use for recording some type of budget. I'll use this for a while because it has columns and lots of lines to record what I'm eating.
Anyways, so far this is what I've recorded:
2 Calcium Citrate Chewables (Lemon) 0 protein/6 carbs/30 calories
8 oz. regular coffee 0 protein/0 carbs/0 calories
2 tsp. Coffee Mate Creamer 0 protein/2 carbs/20 calories
1 tbsp. sugar 0 protein/12 carbs/48 calories
TOTAL 0 PROTEIN / 26 CARBS / 128 CALORIES
Are you seeing what I'm seeing? Oh my goodness! Look at those carbs! I haven't even eaten breakfast yet and I will have almost consumed my days worth of carbs. Let's see, a days worth is 30-40 grams. Wow! Well, guess what, I'm not going to drink my coffee today! Whaaaaaaa! And it's setting right here sending it's wonderful aromas my way. Do you realize....or do I realize that I've been doing this terrible routine since I was last recording my food intake? I convinced myself that it was only 1 tbsp. of sugar...how bad could it be? See, not recording what you're eating...or plain not paying attention could get you into some serious default of diet. I'm so glad I didn't wait another 3 or 4 months to figure this out. Now, maybe my weight loss will speed up a bit.
Well, the days not over with yet. I still have 3 meals to record. I may be back on here telling on myself again. lol Hopefully I don't get a massive case of the grumps. No wonder I enjoy my coffee so much! This has to stop now!
