What Am I Eating?
Seriously - whatever I want for the most part. The key for me is everything in moderation. I make a real effort to stay within my calorie goal (currently 1240/day) just about every day. At least once every 2 weeks I screw it up and go over. Occasionally I screw up once a week. It's that simple.
The harder part - learn what portions look like. I started with measuring a lot, but after a while of doing that you can eyeball it.
Here's a snapshot of a day this week. My goal is 1240 but I got an extra 130 calories from exercise on those day.

What Am I Doing for Exercise
I started lifting.
Well... I carried two boxes yesterday when I worked at the Special Olympics. Doesn't that count?
Seriously though, I walk. That's about it.
My FitBit told me it loved me the other day, so you can say things are getting pretty serious.
I have a goal to walk 7,000 steps a day. I park far from my office, take quick walks throughout the day when I can, and add in a walk after work sometimes with the kids when I get home.
MFP activity is set to sedentary and it calculates my daily calories by that. If I'm more active than that my FitBit and MFP work together and I get exercise calories added back in
I'd like to hike up the mountain that my neighborhood backs up to. Maybe I'll do that this weekend.
That should make for an interesting story next week.
Till then,
Cat
