I started my vacation from work today. I'll be out of town all week and probably not have access to a computer. I won't be listing my calories here, although I have thought it would be a good idea to go see what a place like Book A Million might have that is SMALL, gives calorie counts, and a place to record daily calories.
I suppose I could make my own.
Now, why tell me if you can, was the first thought I got after I typed the above: "I can go eat what I want to and nobody will know." I'm serious. I actually had that thought go through my mind. JUST HOW RIDICULOUS IS THAT!!!!! But it gives me an insight into one thing. Keeping this record has helped me keep myself "in line".
That is something that it is good to be aware of. NOT counting calories could make me lax about what I eat. Hmmmm. I guess I'll just have to find a way to easily keep track of what I eat in a BROAD way for the rest of my life on MOST days.
I'm getting pretty good at estimating how many calories I'm getting in what I choose to eat. And I joke with myself about it that I'm warding off Alzheimer's because calculating and recalculating all these food values in my mind all day is really MENTAL exercise.
