Anyone out there counting calories (who isn't should be the real question here...)? I found this great site that allows you to input your food and it gives ALL the nutritional information about that food. It even gives you free range on the size and amount of the portion. The site also has recipes that match your food query: example, I queried banana and it gave me banana muffins AND Daiquiris! Even though there are TONS of sites similar to this one, I find that it complements the system I use through SparkPeople although this site does not need for you to log in. Check it out!
Has it really been three months since I started up this lifestyle change? Seems to me it's been more than that. Oh well time flies when you're in a crunch! Anyway. Today I decided to weigh myself for the first time in I'd say a month. I'm actually at 157 which is good considering how many times I fell off that damn wagon...
I've changed my goal date to September 1 but I'd really like to be trim for Phil's cousin's wedding at the end of July. I've yet to buy a dress but I have a few in mind. I promised myself to purchase the dress no later than a week before the wedding so that I'm not crash dieting at the last minute or doing major alterations (wishfull thinking perhaps?). Choices are knee length pink satin and brown lace, strapless, tight and form fitting OR same colours and fabric shin length, flared skirt and straps. I like the first one better... I guess we'll have to see!
