Food And Exercise Diary



Recommended Posts

Curious on everyone's eating, Water, and exercise diary , what your typical day looks like. I have one day off per week and I work in a fast pace restaurant.

9am drink my shake

10am- go to gym (usually 4 days a week and do cardio for 45-60 minutes , drink 32 ounces Water.

12pm- make lunch, usually 96/4 hamburger meat in a lettuce wrap or flat bread with onion and pickles and American cheese or chicken and veggies or a salad with let and tomatoe and lemon and olive oil as dressing with feta cheese.

2pm- more water about 20 ounces

4pm- usually a shake or another meal like lunch

530-6pm- more water 20 ounces

8pm - if needed a snack, a piece of cheese or mixed nuts/ pistachios

I always have a large glass of water by my bedside. This is my typical day, if I work in the mornings , then I'll workout later in the day or work is my workout because of the fast pace running around. Usually gym days are tues., Thursday, Friday, sat. My day off is Thursday.

Calories- 650-750 Protein 80-90 water- 8-12 cups , 30 grams of fat or less and carbs under 40.

I haven't been sleeved YET, but when I do, I will keep a diary of my food and Water intake and my exercise. I am concerned about getting all my water in. I don't drink that much water now, how am I going to after surgery?

Sweetsusie

hey newbie

OMG - Sweetsusie

i just don't know where to start telling you the all the stuff you are doing wrong :mellow:

Hmmmm, i don't know where to start, cuz you are not doing anything wrong - you are terific :)

you are drinking plenty of Water, exercising, eating right, calories, Protein

working at a fast pased restaurant, you are running around all evening, more daily exercise. you should wear a pedometer - you'd be amazed at how much you run around

hope you are keeping track of your eating, exercising, drinking, calories, Protein in MPS - or somewhere else.

kudos girlfriend :)

keep on doing what you doing ;)

You are so good I wish I had the patience to track my food and drink. I eat when I am hungry and exercise at least 60-90 min per day. The wt. is coming off and I adjust my activity level and food intake to lose faster.

I started to notice that my muscles felt like I need to stretch all the time. I was talking to my cousin who does Cross-fit. He told me that since I was doing low carb, I needed to add B-12. I wanted to post this in case someone else was having this same problem.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
