Okay- starting all over! Next month I'll be starting a Belly Dancing class- if you haven't ever taken one before I highly recommend it! It was the best self esteem booster I've ever had and is meant for all women.
Today I am going to get back into counting calories... I'm not very good at it, so my confidence is starting out low, but that's what I'm using this site for so hopefully I can just keep up on logging my meals for the day. I am choosing to go the all science route- fat doesn't make you fat!!! Ever!!! Sugar does. It's the only of the 3 that can be stored as fat, as it is our only natural energy source. However, if you cut sugar out entirely, then protein and lipids can be changed within the body and used as sugar. So I'm not doing gluten free, or carb free. Instead, I am cutting out anything with fructose corn syrup in it- did you know it's processed in the liver the exact same way ALCOHOL is?? (This is why we are seeing children with liver failure, and liver cancer). So, 0 fructose/sucrose (as they are the same exact thing). All natural vegetables and fruit- most of which will be raw. A smoothie a day- I used to juice, before we learned that when you juice, you rip away all of the fiber within the fruit/vegetable you are drinking. Sugar is better processed and burned when taken in with fiber... What's wrong with America and the fast food industry? They took out all the fiber to increase shelf life... Very sad.
0 High Fructose/Sucrose. All NATURAL carbs, with the occasional multi-grain bread.
More all natural fiber- ie pomegranate seeds, veg and fruit skins etcetc.
Chew the food more!
I'm a Massage Therapist, so my workouts are in my daily activities, but I will also be taking a weekly dance class. :)
