Rep Power: 6 | | Hey Diary!
Sorry I've been a few days without posting, this is my first day with more than 5 minutes at the PC!
I have to admit that Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday didn't go so well for my diet. One of my best friends turned 21 and we spent Monday into Tuesday eating night club food and imbibing alcohol. Wednesday I just didn't feel like keeping up with stuff. I by no means binged but I did lose focus and most likely over ate by at least 1k. Alcohol has a high calorie content too so Monday and Tuesday I had to be way over.
On to the good news, Ive stepped on 3 different scales and they all tell me the same thing within a pound. So my weight has dropped to 345 pounds even. I'm going by the scale I just bought last night so I could keep up with my ticker.
Yesterday I ate: Energy bar-200 calories
Light TV Dinner-300 calories Energy bar-200 calories
Sandwich-300 calories
Candy bar-500 calories
2x small burritos-300 calories
Hot dog-300 calories
And umm..hmm I'm obviously forgetting a meal and a snack because I have my intake figured at 3100 calories yesterday. Sorry diary I slipped but at least I have the amount correct! Maybe I drank some milk and had an extra Lean Gourmet dinner. Anyway, update ya again tomorrow! |

As you can see, while people around here will tell you over and over again that "a calorie is a calorie", that isn't really true. It's true in that as someone new to the game you don't want to be overwhelmed by "extraneous" information, and in a limited fashion as applies to Thermodynamics, and can generally be assumed for the purposes of convenience, yes, but objectively, it isn't. If you're not really interested in the why you can just fast forward to the latter half of Lean Eatin' Part II (starts at "Choosing Your Food Wisely").
Hope everything's going well.  | Read part 1, good stuff. Especially if you pan the math out over say 10 years of eating. |

Rep Power: 6 | | Yo diary,
Yesterday I overate, found out I cant cook a whole pizza if i'm gonna be home because I cant let the leftovers sit around. Heres what I ate.
Breakfast: 2x energy bars- 400 calories
lunch: Whole pizza-2000 calories
Dinner: Tuna roll- 300 calories
Snacks/small meals: Energy drink: 200 calories
Milk: 100 calories
Turkey Sandwich: 300 calories.
Total: 3300 calories. Not as bad as I thought it was going to be but it still can't be healthy to eat 2k calories at one meal. |

Rep Power: 6 | | I think I am starting to figure out that I have to add a little sugar to my diet. When I cut off soft drinks I cut out sugar intake by 100% inadvertently. I'm not sure if your body makes its own sugar from carbs or what not but I know after I drank that OJ I felt 100% better. The weak, limp-noodle limbs feeling went away and so did my cravings for food. Gonna start having a glass of fruit juice, or a piece of actual fruit every day. |

This is really getting easier. | Hmm its funy looking at this entry, because its exactly what I used to eat back when I didn't care, just less of it. Only I might have squeezed a chinese buffet in there somewhere. The old me would have eaten this today:
First meal- Taco bell grilled stuffed chicken burrito, 2 of them, and a 1/2 pound beef and potato burrito: God knows how many calories.
Second meal- 3 Whopper jr's from BK: 1200 calories
Third meal- Whole pizza: 1223413254266276 calories
Snack- 2 candy bars: 600 calories
Drink- Coke, all day, many servings, I drink like a fish, like 2 litres a meal: 435432554636543747465756.7 calories
Snack- Energy Bar(Ive always liked these): 200 calories
Snack/Meal- Chinese buffet, 3-4 plates: 1000*12(405+15<a3+pi>) rounded to the nearest 10000 calories squared.
