Eating monday
Ladies and Gentlemen, you will now be privvy to more in depth information into the life and times of Erik Abrams than you have previously here-to-for cared for. In other words, TMI (dun dun duuuuuuuun).
I'm rather pleased with my current eating habits, as the change to how I eat now helped me lose 60 pounds. However, my current combination of eating / exercising is not making any changes to my waistline (been at 195 lbs for over a year), so I wish to document my intakes and expenditures for a week so I can get an idea of what other changes need to occur. Weight = caloric intake balanced by energy spent. Nothing more, nothing less. Though Jamie and I do a good job staying active, I can almost gaurantee I need more consistent exercise. As I firmly do not believe in diets and cutting anything out of my available edibles, I'd like to try to find if there's some area where I should consider minimizing its impact (like, less beer? gasp!).
To figure this out, I intend on keeping a record for a few days of everything I eat, its caloric and fat values, and any exercise I undergo and its respective approximate caloric expenditure. Then, tally up at the end. See whats a happenin' empirically!
