I love to eat. Carbs is my weakness link that I always lose control in front of it.
I started running for fitness in 2007. Ever since I finished the 1st marathon (San Diego RnR 2007), I am addicted to running.
I started traineoing in Nov 2007. I have reached my goal weight in Jun 08 already. But, now, I don't care much about my weight. I care about it only if it affects my running performance.

Pre-WO: Raw oatmeal+applesauce 1/2 cup
Post-WO+B: pineapple 100g, cottage cheese 1/2cup, peanut butter 1tsp, almond 0.5oz
S:egg white 1, baby carrot 100g
L:Panera pick2 (salmon salad, black bean soup), tomato basil bread 1 oz
S: hard boiled egg 1, baby carrot 100g
D: beef 2.5oz, almond 1 oz, broccoli salad 1, pineapple 50g
I gave myself B today. Dinner was a bit too late and was flaw at lunch by the tomato basil bread.
Just came back from the nutritionist. She said my diet has improved a lot compared to the last few weeks. Each meal, including snack, has protein. This week I still have lost some muscle. But, the amount was relatively less compared to the last few weeks. She still complaint my high quality protein was too low. She told me to eat solid meat instead of milk during snack.
This was the last meeting with the nutritionist. So far, I have lost 3.5lb already. I have learnt a lot from this program. But, I still need to learn eating proper protein.

Words to live by: "Now's the time to grab the steering wheel of your life. Delve deep within yourself and take responsibility for your health and behavior. Ask yourself hard questions and face the truth of what needs to be done. Weight loss is not always easy or fair but you are the only one that can lose weight for you. Take a turn for the better!"
Goals: 1) Lose ~45 pounds 2) Work out at least 6 days a week 3) Eat healthier consistently
I will reward myself at the following weights: 240, 235, 230, 225, 220, 215, 205, 200, 195, 190
I will reassess my goals after I have met the above goals.

I'm basically trying to get in shape and be healthy...
diaryofthefatman.blogspot.com
I like participating in sports but I want to be more competitive. Also I'm with Kevin Spacey from American Beauty - good reason :)
I'm looking to lose about a hundred lbs in the course of a year, and basically to just consistently get better. And I love comments and messages, so keep 'em coming!
I talk about goal setting a lot, how about I actually set some?
Well it's time to revisit goals... I didn't do too well with my end of year plans, but learned some things and changed my plans up a bit as I went along. During the 5-7 weeks of the year, I was able to put on about 8-10lbs of muscle, and stay at the same actual weight. The plan is to start the Strong Lifts 5X5 program to supplement the Couch to 5K program, and that should last the next 8-12 weeks.
I'm updating goals as well. Lowering cholesterol remains a goal, and I'll find out about that at the end of August.
Been bouncing around a bit, but getting a little stricter again and will monitor that over the next 3-4 weeks. I feel poised to really lose some weight again, so I'm looking forward to the healthy eating and additional exercise.

Exercise and working out have become less convenient because of work, lower back problems and age. I'm way more tired in my 40s than ever before.
I have no desire to look perfect - just want to get rid of the spare tire and take some of the stress off my knees.

Sher, your food makes me hungry for naan in masala sauce also. Did you cook them? What is "black salt"? Pear with black salt. Do you spinkle black salt on fresh pear?

PostWO+B: cottage cheese 1/2 cup, pineapple 50g, special K cereal 1/4 cup

L: Panera pick2(sesame chicken salad, turkey chickpea chilli)
S: baby carrot 200g, egg white 1
D: sugar snappea 3 cups, tuna 3 oz
~1400 cal
Today, I felt hungry for simple carbs all the time. Perhaps, the devil inside me knew that the program with the nutritionist was over, it kept telling me to unleash myself. LOL I listened to the devil in the morning and ate 1/4 cup of cereal that I have avoided for last 5 wks. But, I did not let that devil control me afterward. .I did not touch the Panera sample bread at all in lunch and no simple crabs for the rest of the day.
So, I gave myself B.

Rachael, I am a Wholefood fan also. I love their splitpea soup, tofu wrap, chicken and chickpea masala. Their thin crust pizza is great also. The cornbread is yummy. In the deli section, I like the Kale pinenut and golden beet salad the most. You can ask to sample taste any of them before purchasing. They also place samples of different things everywhere. Their meat department has good stuffs. I have sampled their beef burger, very good. Cheese samples are everywhere. I love them.  ....It makes me want to go there now.
I will try to get their turkey this weekend as daily snack. It was recommended by Jen.

I love to eat. Carbs is my weakness link that I always lose control in front of it.
I started running for fitness in 2007. Ever since I finished the 1st marathon (San Diego RnR 2007), I am addicted to running.
I started traineoing in Nov 2007. I have reached my goal weight in Jun 08 already. But, now, I don't care much about my weight. I care about it only if it affects my running performance.

PreWO: raw oatmeal+applesauce 1/2 cup
PostWO+B: pineapple 100g, tuna 2 oz, peanut butter 2tsp, orange 1

L: Lazy Dog Cafe: Maggie Snake River salad (huge mixed green, walnut, goat cheese, cherries, bacon bites), beef chilli
S: apple 1, tuna 2 oz
D: left over of the Maggie SnakeRiver salad, chicken 3 oz, pineapple 50g
Don't know how much cal. I guess it is ~1600. The Maggie snack salad was huge that i could not finish in lunch.
I gave myself B this time. Good protein in every meal. The only flaw was the simple carbs fom the pretzels.

Snack: oatmeal (150)
Dinner: Quesadillas on whole wheat tortillas with the some of the left over Mexican dish spread on it plus some shrimp, chicken, beef, and diced jalapeƱos. Then dipped in a low fat sour cream and salsa mixture. (700)
Dessert: oreo (50)
Total: 1850 Cal
I know. I know. I ate too much last night. I just felt really hungry for some reason. After eating all that I still felt like I wanted more. When that happens, is it best to try to ignore the impulse or go with it?
Today:
Breakfast: whole wheat bagel with honey PB (400)
Snack: banana (100)

http://anotherfatguy.wordpress.com/ I'm looking at a total weight loss of over 130 lbs (60 kg for those of you in Europe like me...), from 150 kg to 90 kg (330 lbs to 198 lbs). I'm a 36 year old man and am REALLY tired of... well being tired.
So far I've been training like a mofo, and have totally revisited my diet - so far so good, 1/3 of my goal HAS been met - YIPPEE!!
Have met some great people here, and looking forward to meeting even more here on traineo - don't be afraid to bombard me with motivation - I'll take all you can give me :)

Quoting: rach_1623 I just felt really hungry for some reason. After eating all that I still felt like I wanted more. When that happens, is it best to try to ignore the impulse or go with it?
That's usually when I start to stuff myself with raw veggies - I have to be careful with being hungry/being hungry for chocolate. 2 totally different things in my world!!
But if I'm just hungry even though I really shouldn't be (after a meal or at the end of the day...), veggies do the trick for me
That said, after reading what you had for dinner yesterday I got REAL hungry  Sounds yummy!

I do the veggie trick sometimes, but then sometimes I'm craving something heavier and I know it wasn't just a "chocolate crave" kind of thing. I was looking in the pantry and just about everything I saw, I wanted to eat. I finally just had to get out of the kitchen. I went and took a shower which is a pretty difficult place to eat.
Quoting: spyke Sounds yummy!
Oh! It was! My mom gave me a quesadilla maker for Christmas and it's pretty awesome.
