Hermiones Mom's Journal, 06 April 2016

Ok -- I didn't do so well today in total calories because I had lunch out, but I didn't eat anything terrible either -- just more total than I should have. Now I'm thinking I should try to shift my visits to the gym to the morning. Because when I go in the afternoon, I get so hungry that I have to eat a Luna Bar or a Kind Bar, and that adds 200 calories to my day. So if I try to get to the gym around 10 am, then I can go right home for lunch and skip the snack. It sounds silly, but that's a big change for me. My morning is really driven by the dogs' routine -- I shower, dress, walk the dogs for 20 minutes, make their breakfast, then make my breakfast, and by that time it's 9:15 am. and I'm ready to get to work. So if I go to the gym in the morning, that pretty much takes care of the morning. It's not a great solution for me. The other possibility is to split up my lunch calories better -- so I have half my lunch at lunchtime, and I save the rest of my calories for after the gym. It's really confusing trying to figure this out.

Ahhh....they say small meals could bump up the metabolism...so the eating part of lunch at lunch and then the rest after gym may work well, and then later yu still have dinner calories, right?

Yeah -- HCB -- that's my idea. I already manage my total calories with room for snacks in the am and pm. I am finding that the more active I am, the more I need to spread my calories out across the day. And I have to say, I have really felt much healthier and energetic throughout the day since I started doing this. Now I want to adjust on days that I am going to the gym to try to spread the calories out a bit differently, because if I eat a snack after going to the gym, then I end up eating too many calories by the end of the day.
