Day 1

Hello Readers!

This is technically not Day 1, but for the sake of the blog I'm going to treat it as such. I'm going to update it every day, work out or not. I will be taking pictures and tracking measurements, but I'm not sure yet if I want to post them on a public blog. I might make certain posts friends-only so that I can include those. I'm not sure if I can do that, but I could do it in 2003 on LiveJournal so I'm sure I can. I'm going to be using SparkPeople to help me out with some of the food tracking.

My goals right now are to eat 1200-1550 calories a day, and burn 800 calories a week. I have decided not to track my weight, though I do have a starting weight just for knowledge's sake.

My format for tracking will be thus:

Sunday Sept. 29, 2013

Breakfast: 

  • 1 serving of Fiber One Cereal
  • 1 serving of lowfat milk
  • half a mango

Lunch:


  • 2 slices of Nature's Own honey wheat bread
  • 2 servings of Smart Balance peanut butter (with Omega-3)
  • 1 serving Smuckers strawberry jam
  • 1 serving Snyder's mini pretzels
Dinner:

Snack:

  • None today

Exercise:

  • 30 minutes of walking
  • 3 sets of "stadiums" 

Calories in:  (from SparkPeople website)


Calories out:


So that's it. I'm going to do this daily. Goals that I want to accomplish this week are:

  1. Wake up every morning and do my workout before work.
  2. Try to work in some more protein in my diet. 
  3. Drink 8 glasses of water a day.
  4. Get through the first two sections of GRE math (Substitution and Probability & Statistics) and one hour daily of Vocab practice.
  5. Come up with a list of fields I would most like to work in, to be built upon for future goals.
  6. At work, make an outline/timeline of how I want to work on the Jacksonville and Orlando meters this month. 
  7. For pleasure, finish (hopefully!) Clash of Kings, level Eiron to 90 (WoW), and do all of the Throne of Thunders LFRs on Dapi.
Well I think I have written enough for now. I will only be sharing this with a few people, but feel free to comment and let me know of any changes you suggest in the layout, etc. 

Thanks for reading!
