It's a new Routine

Jul 01, 2020 11:08

I've decided to keep track of a new diet I'm trying.  I signed up for Noom.  The reason I decided to give it a try is because the science behind the method is cognitive behavioral therapy.  I know this science to be beneficial through the work I do as a counselor.  I thought, this might help me.  I know I changed a lot of behaviors after going through the counseling program and becoming a counselor.

I know I need to change my eating habits and the green, yellow, red way that Noom shows a person what they eat helps me to know what is healthy and what is more indulgence.  When I first started keeping track of my meals, I noticed that I eat a lot of red foods.  These foods are less calorie dense than green foods like apples, oranges, oatmeal and coffee.  I haven't seen a big drop in my weight this week.  I do feel that I have more energy.  Basically, less calorie dense foods contain a lot of water.  Tea is another drink apart from water that's green.  Yellow foods include baked items: chicken, fish, gravy, busicuits.

I know I need to include excerising to my routine.  I ordered a machine for $100 that seems to be comact enough and allow for a variety of movements.  I'm expecting it today.

I guess after getting married, it's easy to not think about what I'm eating because I just eat with Jeremiah.  He can weigh more than me, though because he's over six foot tall.  Short doesn't look good with more weight.
