WIAW (What I ate Wednesday)

So I decided to write my first "What I ate Wednesday" post! Funnn. I created this blog as a guide to healthy eating and living but I'll be posting lots of other random facts, pictures, plans etc. I figured if I took pictures of my major meals and factored in what I snack on (More than likely I won't be posting those as I'm sure you all know what a hard-boiled egg looks like..but we'll see) that I could really get my head around how many calories I actually consume in a day.

 

Primarily, I decided I wanted to try a 1200 cal/day diet. Honestly, this doesn't work for me. I know, I know ... "you just like to eat"... and you're right (ugh). BUT, I'm trying to drop a fair amount of weight for running the Tely 10 this year. With nightly jogs and a scattered cross-training session, I find myself always hungry. I'm not trying to make excuses. Truly. But waking up at 4:15am, getting home after 7 and then working out? Well ya can imagine I'd be a little 'peckish' (haha).

 

Anywho, my plan is to track my eating using myfitnesspal, document all my workouts and then do a weekly progress report/blog update.

 

 Wish me luck ;)
