Today, we decided to track our calories. For the next 90 days, in an attempt to shave off some extra fat that we just can't seem to get rid of, we're going to try and avoid processed foods, bad fats and sugars. It's a simple plan that we hope will be effective. We figure since we're not the type of people that are crazy about writing down every detail, we can post our progress up on a simple blog to help keep track of our simple plan. We've heard too many experts repeat the same thing - track your calories by writing them down. It's time to put that advice to the test. So, here goes...
Monday
breakfast - plain oatmeal and fresh blueberries
snacks and lunch - apple, cantaloupe, almonds; cucumbers, spinach, tomato and tuna with red wine vinegar and olive oil
915 calories approx.
dinner - grilled fish (delicious), broccoli, toasted bread
All in all about 1400 calories for Monday
Oopsie, need to add another 75 cal for 1/2 cup of whey protein this morning after the workout. Also, does coffee have any calories? One quick google confirmed our suspicions [http://www.diet-blog.com/08/how_many_calories_in_coffee.php]. With no addtional creams or sugars, it's virtually calorie free! Yay! That's just how I like it.
