I'm watching Biggest Loser as I am writing this and it is quite the inspiration to keep pushing forward with this goal. It isn't as hard as I thought to turn away some of the foods or drink the water that is needed for a healthy, functional body. I really thought this would be a bit of a hassle to write things down all of the time and keep track but it's not that bad at all.

1. 3/4 of a banana
2. 1 cup of coffee
3. 1 cup of Raison Bran cereal

January 10th & Pedemoter

I bought a pedometer to wear when I played basketball since I am running and getting plenty of exercise that way. At first, I wasn't going to count that running and viewed it as extra...but then I thought...Why wouldn't I count it - it's running. So, I have counted that and will continue to as I push to reach my goal. This was a bad eating day.


Food Intake:

1. 7/8 of a plain doughnut
2. Starbuck's Frappacino - Coffee Flavor
3. 1 Salad w/french dressing
4. 1 slice of pizza - chicken and bbq
