Eating Healthy, Day 1 So Tiff's been on this site called Spark People for a while. She's trying to be all healthy, and I've been giving her a little distant encouragement.
Well, after a particularly rough night of remembering why Mexican shouldn't be eaten every third meal, I decided to sign up to. And, after one day, I'm alreay a little surprised.
Apparently, I eat more fat, sodium, and cholesterol than two of me should. Actually, in the case of cholesterol, 3 of me. Or, for sodium, 2.5 of me.
Yeah. And after Friday, I bet I'll have all of one day's nutrients across the week, too.
Now, I don't want to make another "Super-Size Me" movie, but I am definitely going to point the finger at food services for a minute. The healthiest option, besides starvation, really isn't an option there. So, I'll be getting creative with these meals if I'm going to stick to this.
Supposedly, this'll give me more energy with less caffiene, which isn't tracked through my program but which flows through me regularly. I like my caffiene, and with finals coming up I'm not going to be going without it, but cutting back couldn't hurt.
gah. Healthy is scary.  ¶   1 comments
