First day of actually tracking what I eat. (Carebear)

Today I had 2 cups of coffee, a lowfat yogurt, grapefruit and granola bar for breakfast. I have company coming again, so not sure how it will go for dinner. Lunch will probably be homemade spaghetti sauce over digestable carb pasta, which surprisingly tastes just like regular pasta. Dinner is suppose to be pork chops and potato salad. I will just have to watch my portions. If this isn't what you had in mind, just delete it. I am not sure if I am doing this right.

I am not weighing myself for a while. I need to get my metabolism going first.

Today I had 130 calories nutrigrain bar for breakfast, about 160 calories in peanuts between meals -then splurged a little with a taco salad from the border cantina. Tonight i will eat light again, and walk 4 - 6 miles briskly.

We'll assume i still weigh 190 lbs. In a couple weeks we will look at our weights, (unless you don't want to), and we'll see how much we've lost.

May 20th 2009 First Starting Out

I am not sure of the format this will be, but you guys need to register - then I can make you author's and we'll get this ball rolling.

Today I weigh 190 lbs, which to some of you may seem like an ok weight, but I am much smaller boned than my two brothers, and I am about 30 lbs overweight (at my current muscle mass).

Today for breakfast I ate 2 oat bars:

190 calories, 50 fat calories, 6g of fat, .5g saturated fat, 75mg of sodium, 30g carbs, 2g of fiber, 11g sugar, 4g of protein

I also had a Southwest Salad from McDonald's for lunch. I don't know the content of the salad itself, but it had a pack of dressing that was 100 calories, and 50 calories from fat. Much better than what I had been eating.

I am also taking 2 men's vitamins, 1 chromium, 6 amino acids, and 2 - 4 hoodias per day.

Once you guys register you can begin your fairytale.
