The Gym

Jan 29, 2009

As I have mentioned previously this is all about developing habits. I don't think this is going to work if I don't develop sound and healthy habits. I have to admit I don't measure my food out...at all. I eat reasonable and real food very slowly and stop after I think I have had enough. I try to stop before I get full. I need to develop what I call real world habits. I don't want to get too wrapped up in how many calories I am eating. I stay clear of sugar, starches (sweets and breads) and fats. I have eaten pizza and to be honest sometimes it makes me very sick and sometimes it doesn't. I no longer eat a complete large pizza like I used to. I eat 1 or maybe 2 small slices. Having just said I don't count calories let me add that I don't do a formal calorie count. I do keep track in my head. My reason is to make sure I am getting enough food in me. I tend to eat around 800 calories a day. This is a level where I feel good.

I need to work on exercise. I have not been going to the gym on a daily basis. I am getting there but it is hard to get going. I have found it is best to exercise first thing in the morning but I am pretty fast on shutting off the alarm. If I miss the morning I make sure I go in the evening and I am sorry to say that sometimes I don't go at all. My goal is to go every day and never to allow 2 days without exercising. I feel great after I do it.  Its just a matter of forming good healthy habits.

Peace and Love,

jb
