I really want to prepare more meals, but it seems like I don't have the time. I am always rushing in the morning, so I never eat breakfast. NEVER. If I do, it's donuts that I pick up if I have extra time and I KNOW that they are not healthy.
On Mondays and Tuesdays, I go to school directly from work. I don't get out in time to come home and start cooking. Therefore, I decided that I would maybe eat a Subway sandwich, a bowl of soup, or have a smoothie. The other days, I can come home and prepare dinner.
For breakfast, I think that I can throw in the boiled egg. I can put it on while I brush my teeth and stuff and it should be ready in about 15 or so minutes. I need things that I can eat in the car. About the toast, I have been buying Nature's Own Honey 'n Wheat bread. I will have to check into the other brands of wheat bread. Right now, I have some white bread. I'll have to pick up some wheat during the week.
For lunch, I can throw in a salad. Is it cool to buy the pre-cut lettece that comes in the bags at the grocery? Instead of the salad, what if I throw in a soup?
Dinner sounds good. I usually steam broccoli and potatoes and sprinkle it with some Mrs. Dash and a little bit of shredded cheese.
I went to fitday.com like suggested and made a sample entry of the foods that I would eat in a day and it gave me a little over 2,000 calories for the day. Isn't that enough? I know that I am supposed to stay in the that range and workout in order to lose, right?
As for exercise, I LOVE walking! I can walk for miles. As long as I have some music going, I am ready for it. Once I'm there, I'm OK. It's just getting there. I have tried other htings in the gym, like the stair climber and the bike, but the treadmill is my machine. I am going to walk for a while and try to build my endurance to start running.
