In all my dieting and lifestyle changes I have learned many things about myself. A) I can not give up carbs. I love bread, crackers and all those carby goodness foods. I CAN do them in moderation though! Same deal with ice cream and fro-yo. B) Sometimes a good salad is all you need. I love chicken right off the grill in bed of greens. I have also widely expanded my vegetable choices over the past 7 years. C) Research and planning is important to going out. D)Alcohol is a challenge for me. When I go to the bars I tend to drink too many calories, and usually after I tend to binge. Currently leading up to my race on thanksgiving (ankle healing pending), I have given up alcohol except for a wine festival in October. E) I got frustrated when my weight stays the same for more then 2 weeks and I need to get over that. F) I need to eat. I can not go extremely low on calories. I have tried several times eating 1200-1500 calories right off the start. I get cranky, hungry and I end up binging. Eating up to 1800 has been doing well and I am in a much better place.
