- About Me:
- Hi, my name is Kira, I've just really started getting into nutrition in the last few months and I've been trying really really hard to eat right and exercise. I've lost 20 pounds in the last 2 and a half months and I feel amazing!!! I'm currently saving up to travel to B.C. and then from there hopefully to Europe and Australia and I really want to learn to surf :)....In the future I was thinking about going into a career for a personal trainer and/or dietitian.

My mission to lose weight and eat right!!!
Ok, so I've never had a blog before...so I thought I'd give this a try... ok so what is today...Friday right, ok so this week I've gone to the gym 3 days so far..which is good, but I've also eaten about 10 cookies and 5 muffins!!! Which is bad. For some reason I've had insane sugar cravings at night this whole week, and I can't seem to control them, I am going to try to get that under control today.,..although I baked chocolate chip oatmeal muffins for breakfast..and ate 2....but I am off to the… Continue

Do you think you might be intolerant to something you're eating? Sometimes that can make you hold weight. Are you bloated or gassy?
Are you retaining water?
Make sure you are eating enough of the "good" fats. From nuts, olive oil, fish etc... It has been found that a diet with insufficient fat can lead to high sugar cravings.
Tips from me:
PLAN AHEAD: plan your meals, plan your exercise. For me, that means making all my food for the day the night before, so I don't eat anything except what I had planned. Making time for exercise. It is an appointment.
Journal: everything you eat: write it down! You'd be amazed how it helps
Balanced meals: I eat 5-6 smaller meals a day, which are a combination of carbs, protein and fat. I can't eat any other way now and love it! I'm always eating every 2-3 hours. I'm not saying this is what you have to do but it works for me, especially because I love to eat.
Theres so many other things I could say... I could write a book. But I really believe you should start journaling what you eat. It'll change everything.
Thanks for joining! Feel free to create or join groups, start blogging....or even just to spectate.....that's ok too :)
