Mathew,
I'm glad what I posted struck home...
I decided to post that post because of you...
You know that my pm's and rep notes to you are harsh....
It's because I see a lot of my 20 yr old self in you...
You said it best... Sometimes seeing it in the words that someone else wrote down is like a kick in the gut (paraphrase)
That's what this thread had done for me...
So maybe share myself a little and see if I can do the same for someone else...
Breakfast:
1 cup of coffee... 1 teaspoon sugar and half the amount of creamer.. (slowly decrease the sugar and creamer until I'm drinking black... STOP using things as a delivery meathod for fats and sugars)
1 cup of white rice ( I have brown, but I knew that being too gung ho FOR ME is setting myself up to fail) no sugar/ no butter... Chopped up two dried aprocots for the sweetness
2 slices of cantalope
Snacks:
Dried cranberries and carrots... (still high in sugar, but at least it's natural)
Lunch:
1 Cup Rice with cranberries, as much salad as I can eat... no cheese, no crutons, no meat, lemon (per usual) as dressing..
Snacks:
Almonds and cantalope
Dinner: I have no clue....
I will bring ONE cup of coffee to work with me... Non flavored creamer and 1 tsp of sugar... I WILL drink at least 3 8 oz glasses of water... I will bring lemon with me to flavor the water...
I will walk around the building on my breaks instead of sitting and reading a book...
I hope everyone has a GOOD day... off to get ready for work..
