For anyone reading this I am a 51 year old male currently weighing 100 Kgs (220 lbs)
My Metabolic Rate was previously slowed down by diabetes and a dysfunctional thyroid but I think it is only slowed down these days (by 10% I hear) by my necessary taking of beta blockers,
My info comes from different sources including CalorieKing and Nutrition Data.com
Here is a new log kind of edited but did not come out as good as my original document which I can't seem to paste properly here anyway.
All this to say that this new and improved habit is quite instructive and challenging and interesting.
It also helps for balance and reasoning I find, i.e. Yes I want 2 eggs this morning Yes I had a very hard work out yesterday and I need and deserve them BUT in order to keep my meals around the 300 Calories mark I will have to cut my cottage cheese to 50 g this morning too etc
Or Wow for the calories of that relish and dijon I could have had another can of tuna... but mind you with the band one NEEDS the relish and dijon or something to wash that tuna down :puke:
Or I thought oat bran was empty calories a bit like saw dust...
Or hmmmmm no wonder I plateaued when I was adding two or 3 rounded tablespoons of "Healthy" Peanut Butter to my banana mix
Plus it makes one accountable and I can't say I eat like a bird and still gain weight because it is all recorded.
Anyway from an arithmetical point of view it sure makes a lot of sense.
This has been a very interesting experience so far even though it is only a few days old. In 51 years of life I have never ever logged and counted my calories but the band has change my lifestyle and my mind I guess.
Anyone feel free to correct this as my data is guesses at best.
But there has been a few lessons and a few things learned already.
