Well it's been almost 24 hours since my first post and I have noticed a few things since then. I now look at everything and think Oh, I can make a blog post about that, or Oh that would be something I could really talk about on my Blog. I literally pulled out my cell phone and used my checklist app and started to make a check list of different topics I can write about. So far I have 9 topics (this being one of them), I hope that is good news as I was a little worried that I would not have enough to write about lol. Now having said that I don't know how often I will make posts but I will try to do at least one a week.
Speaking of cell phones and apps, Do you use any on your phone for health and fitness? I use a few, My checklist app (ColorNote) is great for making up grocery lists for the week, whenever I think of something I need I pop it and then when I go to the store I know exactly what I need. Another App I like to use is Simple Weight Loss Resolution, It lets you set your goal weight and then tells you how many more lbs. you need to reach it. One of my all time favorite apps that majorly helped with my weight loss was MyFitnessPal, I Love this app! It is the easiest, quickest app to record and track your food, water and exercise...if you can't find a food in the database, zap the UPC code and in the app it goes! I never really realized until I started tracking my food what I was really eating. Being accountable for my food really helped me start eating the right kind of healthy food. I mean you can have a prepackaged 100 calorie snack that won't keep you full or you can have a handful almonds with fruit and be satisfied longer.
So even if you don't have a smartphone you can still keep a food journal or just ask yourself before you eating something, do I really need this or am I just bored? Am I hungry or thirsty? Will I feel bad about it after I eat it? If you answer this last one yes, I'd say don't eat it. You are, what you Eat after all.
