Ok, the past 2 days have been weird days. I am not my perky self and my food choices have reflected that. I mean, I ate almost 2000 calories yesterday and decided after lunch I needed a cupcake. No, I definitely WANTED the cupcake. Not need.
Last night when I weighed I was up 2 lbs. Ugh. Now, I blame- primarily- my alcohol choices the last 2 weekends. And that last week I only worked out once.
That still does not account for the weirdness going on. I was so sure today was going to be a productive healthy day and I totally blew it with my choices.
I
s this a self-sabotage attempt? Is it laziness? Did I just want a fricken cupcake?
I have been trying to eat more vegetables, and whole grains and less meat. I can't seem to find my footing here. I know those things are good for me- yes. I will never cut them out of my diet. But, eating this way feels wrong to me. My body keeps telling me to have more protein, but the info I am reading and watching tells me I don't need the meat.
I could be a vegetarian based on the meat industry. But, I could also buy local grass fed organic meat and like that better.
I am having a weird day. I think I need to do more protein and less carbs. The way I have been eating really has made me feel all wrong. I don't know.

Try upping your protein with veggies, nuts.. lentils are a good way to get some protein, edamame is also really good.

Why not trying some organic chicken? I love it! I also like protein bars and things like that. How about whey shakes? I agree also with pixi, try some beans and things. I love Edamame. AMAZING. Fish can be an option as well. I hope we can get off this cupcake-alcohol ridden ride, it's not going to end in our favor!!!!!!

I agree with you both-- at one time in my life ( this is funny) I was a certified personal trainer. ( Just to cover a gap in my license-- so I could tell people to stretch.) I did have to learn about nutrition. I love beans, edamame and chicken.
Here is the rub: Cancer runs very deep on my side and my husbands side of the family. ( His dad died from it at 42)I really do believe that animal products are a major contributor to the growth in cancer. So, to that end we decided to take a more plant based approach to our diet.
I am not an Atkins follower, but I do believe in a higher protein based diet for weight control. So, when I look at my calender I freak over the amount of carbs. Also, the 2 lbs weight gain seemed to confirm my suspicions-- but then there is all that wine I drank. ( shame shame)
So here is what I have decided: Still eating mostly plant things. But, I know I need more protein, so I will add that ( shrimp, fish, organic chicken, etc) and eat less rice. More salad.
That's the plan.
Allie- we are off the ride!

Maybe don't do Atkins but have you looked at other low carb approaches? I do my own low carb, I know Kat does low carb, there is primal and paleo too. its worth looking into it.
