Well it happened to me. I thought that working out would be all I needed to maintain my weight. Working out alone is not what helps keep the weight off. I say with certainty, 80-90% of maintaining your weight is based on what you eat. Over the past year I have allowed myself to slowly open the door to eat whatever I want. And I have to finally admit that it has caught up with me. I walk into my closet and can only put on half of the clothes that are there. I don’t like that the clothes “own” me. I want to be able to look in my closet and have everything fit. Enough said . . . .. .
I am back to using my faithful and extremely motivating calorie counting tool called Diet Power. If you do not pay attention to what you eat you can underestimate what you eat by 50%. Diet Power tracks what I eat, breaks it down into nutritional categories and gives me a grade for the day. It may seem weird but I am soooooooo motivated to get an A everyday. I log in my workouts, but try not to use the calories banked from the workout as “eating” calories. After 30 days of using the program and faithfully logging all my foods in I have a good estimate of what my metabolic rate is. Diet Power is a faithful and powerful friend to me. It helped me loose 80 pounds in the past and it is helping me to drop my weight now. I have lost almost 8 pounds since starting Diet Power 4 weeks ago. I have 14 more pounds to loose. Let’s see how long it will take me. I have a goal to loose 5 pounds every 4 weeks. Making the 14 pound loss to take around 12 weeks—–July 9th, 2009. I hope to keep you posted on the progress.
