Fitness

I'm trying to get fit.

With a persistent knee "injury" (I might refer to it as that, but it's really just a problem with the kneecap tracking improperly and damaging the cartilage), I find it hard to exercise properly, and being a University student I find it hard to eat right.

But I'm only 18 once. I'm tired all of the time, I'm embarrassed at my body, and I'm definitely starting to realize that this is all only going to happen once...and I want to be happy with my body, before I turn 19. My birthday isn't until February of next year, so we're going to see what I can do before then. C:

Every day I'll be posting what I eat, and monitoring my calorie intake. The first few days will be mostly to get an idea of when and what I've been eating already, while the days after that will start to reflect what I should be eating. Over the past months I've taken some good steps, but I'm going to aim for multiple small meals in a day (when I can), and healthy alternatives. We'll see, I suppose. ^^;

I'm just chasing my freedom, and seeing where it will lead me!

Today:

- Subway Oven-Roasted Chicken Breast (6-inch) with cheese, lettuce, tomato, and bbq sauce on whole wheat --- 370 cal, 8.5 g fat,
- Apple Chips --- 40 cal, 0 g fat
- Nature Valley Apple Cobbler Fibre Bar --- 120 cal, 2 g fat
- Nestea Iced Tea --- 207 cal, 0 g fat
- Tomato Soup --- 250 cal, 2 g fat
- Milk (1%, Approximately 2.5 cups) --- 300 cal, 6 g fat
- Veggies (3/4 cup) --- 25 cal, 0 g fat
- Perogies (Cheddar and Potato) --- 225 cal, 2.7 g fat

TOTAL: 1537 calories, 21.2 g fat [This was a food-heavy day for me, however, because it was an exam day and I ate a much higher calorie and fat breakfast than normal. I normally have yogurt and fruit or something. ^^;]
