Day 3

I'm already getting lazy with this food journal thing. But I keep reminding myself that if I can't keep track of what I eat for a week then it is, indeed, a sad day. So I'm continuing. Hoo-rah! Yesterday's entry was pretty loose anyways, as we went out and drank last night. I don't usually drink very often because I'm so busy/tired with school, so it was a special occassion and I don't really know what was in/how much was in the drinks I had. ^^;

I find I eat a ton more when I`m not in school. Being at the University for what, 8 hours in a day, I didn`t usually eat during that period--we never bought anything that was really easy to bring to school, and I couldn`t afford to buy anything. The past month or so I brought breakfast--yogurts and bagels and fruit. But that lasted me throughout the day...now I eat every couple of hours. Just something small--some fruit, again, or a fibre bar. Boredom eating!

Still looking into P90X. From what I can tell, it won`t be too hard on my knee--Tony, the trainer associated with the training program, apparently offers low-impact exercises and alternatives for people with knee problems. I might borrow it from my brother and see...I know it would be a huge undertaking, and I don`t want to try it only to give up--I want to make a decision beforehand and stick to it. I would be ashamed to back out, especially knowing how difficult it is ahead of time. It`s a commitment, and as long as I tell myself I can`t do it I won`t be able to...

Right now, I plan on waiting until my job situation is more finalized...READ: Until I actually HAVE a job. But I should start soon. Summer`s the best time for me to do all of this, really, and 90 days--three months--would already overlap into September...I really need to get started.

I went online and I`m trying to figure out my recommended daily calorie and fat intakes.

Calorie: 1721 calories (assuming I`m sedentary, which I`m really not...only some days. ;) )
Fat: 48 g fat (assuming I`m eating 1721 calories per day..), or 42 g fat assuming I`m eating 1500 calories a day (my current average)
