Yeah, the whole food thing used to make me crazy...can't eat this, can't eat that...it was torture. I need to be able to live a normal life, and enjoy myself. I just needed to understand what was too much...once I educated myself about calories and carbs and proteins etc. I understood where I was going wrong. It's amazing to me now how much some of us know about how our cars work...but we have no clue about our own bodies!
Other than calories I also try to keep tabs on my saturated fats and sodium since I'm paranoid about my health. I lost one parent to a stroke and one had 6 bypass at 42 I guess that'll do it.
I just looked up the Bodybugg...how cool is that??? Right now I use a heart rate monitor, but this looks so interesting...plus it's lighter and less annoying than the band around your waist...mine sometimes rides up and malfunctions anyway. Thanks so much Lil'J! I am definitely doing to look into it, I like that it takes other things into consideration like your body temp etc. Very cool!!!
Thanks Aoife...it took me awhile!! I was reading through other logs, and I was really inspired to get mine going....I think it'll be a really good thing for me!
