Here we go again...

Posted on November 8, 2014

So I am starting over again. This time I am at my heaviest weight ever and I am now living at home again so I have to eat whatever the rest of my family eats (which is very unhealthy). I am tracking my caloric intake for the first time ever and I think I am not eating propperly, but I am not sure. One of the hardest things for me is getting motivation to exercise so I have written down my goals with rewards in hopes that it wlll motivate me to move.

If anyone wants to follow me on tumblr for fitness and body love

I will tell y'all my goals in another blog post.

The most important thing is to go as unprocessed as you possibly can, and get in some kind of exercise. Even if you just dance in your room, or walk back and forth inside your house. Any kind of movement is better than none.

You can use a online calculator to figure out what your daily calorie intake should be, to meet your current weight goal. You will also need to decide what your macronutrient ratios should be (how much of your calories do you aim to divvy up between carbs, fat, and protein). A good one to start with might be 50% carbs, 25% fat, 25% protein, but you want to tweak it until you get a ratio that results in the easiest weight loss for you. 33/33/33 is also good, or if you really like protein, you may want to make that one the highest ratio. Everyone is different, so there is no magic answer. And you can still get plenty of protein from non-meat sources, if you prefer a more vegetarian diet. Your fats need to come from healthy sources - grassfed meats/butter/ghee/lard/tallow, coconut oil, olive oil, avocado oil -- avoid canola oil, vegetable oil, soybean oil, safflower oil. If you can't get grassfed meat, get super low-fat supermarket meat and then add olive oil or coconut oil.

You go girl :) I have the biggest problems with excercising, too. To be honest I skipped gym today as well... We can do it!!! The hardest part for me is getting started, because, when I'm at it, I actually love working out.
