I learned a few things posting my food logs for the week:
- It’s a lot harder to remember to photograph your food than you’d think it would be.
- I write in a Weight Watchers food diary every day, but doing “double duty” and posting to my blog made me feel both more accountable and more aware of what I’m doing, so I think I’m going to stick with the blog reporting for another week — maybe for the entire I AM CROSSFIT Challenge.
- I’m such a creature of habit. Check out my breakfasts all week!
- Cabbage rules.
- My energy and hunger/appetite are best-managed when I eat two servings of veggies and one serving of fruit at lunch. When I swap one of those piles of veg for fruit, I get hungrier sooner. Sorry, whole grapefruit; you’re bad news for me.
- My home computer is significantly slower than my work computer, and it makes me want to bash my head against the desk (hence the laziness mentioned below regarding lunch photo).
