It's official - today is the day I start my lifestyle change. I'm considering it a lifestyle change since that's what it has to be. That, and I hate the word "diet" and all the negative connotations I have surrounding it.
I'm doing the first week according to Jillian Michaels' "Master Your Metabolism" meal plan. I bought about 3/4 of my groceries from the organic grocery store yesterday, and it ended up costing me twice as much as normal. So although I understand that eating organic is beneficial, I don't think I'll be doing so. I just can't afford spending $200 a week on groceries - for ONE person. But hey, you learn something new every day, right?
I've only had breakfast so far today, and I seem a little hungry. It's entirely possible that I'm thirsty (thirst sometimes manifests itself as hunger) or that my hugner hormones are out of whack...so I'm not worrying too much yet. Under the plan, I'm supposed to eat every four hours, so lunch will be in about an hour. I can hold out till then :)
I'm going to try recording what I eat in here, too, so that I can see how many calories I'm eating - and make sure I'm not starving myself. Then it's off to the gym when I get home from work tonight. I'm trying to figure out what to do for exercise, though. I've got Jillian's "Making the Cut" book, so perhaps I'll use that program for 30 days and sees what happens...
