What I Plan To EatI eat approximately 1500 Calories, and drink approximately 150 ounces of water each day. What I've discovered is that I am eating all day long, so I really don't get hungry. It took some time to get in the habit of sitting down, planning meals and sticking to them. It really works best, and I spend about half of what I used to on food! I make sure I keep healthy snacks at work and when I'm out and about, otherwise I'll grab something I shouldn't. On Sundays, I eat whatever I want, but I literally can't eat as much as I used to.

What I Actually AtePlanning meals helps keep me on track, but it's not a guarantee. So what I have to do is keep me on track. No, what I actually have to do is ask God to keep me on track! But I know that I have to continually make choices, and live with the results. I have to choose to prepare and eat what I have planned that is healthy for me, or I have to choose to each something that will kill me. I have to make these choices every minute of the day until they are second nature. It's that simple. I drink 25 ounces of water at the gym, and with each meal or snack.
