Tuesday, January 5th, 2010

Today went great! My Endocrinologist appointment revealed that I have mild hypothyroidism, and am now on medication to correct it. This coupled with a change in my eating and exercise habits could mean a serious change in my health, and my life. I got up early 9:30ish , but took a two-hour nap in the middle of the day. I still have not completed my essays, but I did schedule my first Bodysmith appointment with Leo, order my books, and come up with a way to schedule my week once I get back to school.

As for today in food:

I had an apple (100 calories) waiting for pop to get out the door for my doctors appointment around 9:45am. After my appointment, around noon, I had a low-carb/fab muscle milk (160 calories). Provided a nice boost, quelled my hunger. At home, around 1pm, I made a Salad with romaine, some carrots, and 2tbs of fat-free Italian (20 calories) and ate it with can of Chunky Chicken Noodle Soup (240 calories). A cup of coffee with cream and splenda (80-100 calories) -also had a half a cup in the morning, not even sure if I finished this one either. For dinner, around 8pm, I had a piece in a half of whiting fish (110 calories) and two helpings of mixed vegetables. My goal is to eat no more after this, only having some diet soda and water. I want to start weening off diet soda, and get away from craving sweet things.

Total Calorie Count: 1000-1200 calories

Physical Activity: None
