Here I am in my cozy bed, but in fucked up bedroom.. I just did 4 loads of laundry and I have no desire to fold it till I am ready in few days... Helloo single life, do the fuck you want between your 4 walls... If I don't want to do my laundry today-- I am not going to do it.. If I don't want to mop my floors today... I AM NOT GOING TO MOP THEM.. Does it make me lazy... NO, I am just RELAXED at this point ;). I am not a hoarder and my place is clean, so ... Laundry can wait, floors can wait... BUT what can not wait is my BOOKS.... I am full time college student, and every day I have some sort of paper due. I don't let it affect my life in general, but it is my main focus and goal to be the best I am. I want to be my own role model in the end of the day. In 2 years I want to finish college, look back and say... YOU MADE IT!!! It is hard, but doable.. My mind needs to focus 400% more at this time and age.
I am stubborn as fuck. But one thing I had to let go when I started my college journey was- BEING stubborn about learning new things.. I am re learning everything at this point. Times have changed, patterns have changed, diets have changed... BUT what has remained the same is.... BASIC foods and our relationship to food... We all are still addicted to food. We try to find ways to get away with our addiction to food, but if you are not in amazing shape or have 40% of body fat -- you better watch out your calorie intake...
Carbs, fats and protein have to be indigested in harmony.
1 gram of carbs=4 cal
1 gram of protein =4 cal
1 gram of fat =9 cal.
eat minimum 135 grams of carbs(540 cal) per day.. IT keeps your brain active. Do not listen to fad diets. If you are not bikini body competitor... whatever.. NOT MY THING....... BUT - drop this shit and have your carbs... Carbs do store more water but its ok!!!! CHoose your carbs wisely.... ;)
and about 144 grams of protein( 576 cal). These are just resting metabolic rate numbers... Meaning I DO NOT HAVE to work out to loose weight. THis is for maintaining weight...... these numbers are low.
I weigh 172 lbs..=78 kilos. i should be eating in daily about 1440 calories for maintaining my weight... To loose , without adding any workouts, I should be consuming 1200 cal( never drop below this number)...
TO show you my progress... In september 2017 I weight 205 pounds... In February 2018 I weigh 172 pounds.... It is slow progress, but i am moving in right direction.
Anyway...
Stop fad diets. STOP listening to tv and newspapers and magazines about next best thing... YOU ARE SHIT BABY!!! YOU ARE BEST EVER... eat your food in balance and your body will thank you.... IT might seem scary at first, but you know what is scary... Ending up in hospital, doctors telling you- there is nothing we can do for you....
Make food your friend... rest will follow.... xoxoxo
love....
Glad to see your posting again. I believe I once read that writing about one's feelings is like chicken soup for the soul, sometimes it can be healing.
