{ Kelly Brook looking healthy and fit }
Last week I decided I needed to make a few changes in my eating habits so I started a food journal. It was in the One Small Change article; a must read for those of us who can't fully commit to healthy eating yet but would like to get started...one small step at a time.
I've realized in starting a food journal that I'm more aware of what I should eat (being that it will be written in my journal as a setback) rather than just ordering/cooking what I want to eat. I am all for indulging once in a while and rewarding myself for taking care of my body but I am hoping that, in time, I won't even crave my favorite fatty foods anymore. Also, now that I have begun tracking all my food intake, I have introduced into my life a somewhat neurotic nutritionist - who lives in my conscience and is quite obnoxious but I know she's only doing it for my own good. =p
Here are a few sites I looked at which help calculate your calories, have food logs, blogging options, and diet/nutrition/fitness information. I am currently using these two sites and will decide which I like better at the end of the week:
- nutrimirror.com
- livestrong.com
The National Institute of Health (click link to check yours!) says you're at a healthy weight if your BMI falls between 18.5 - 24.9. My BMI is at 18.8 which is ok but I should gain a few pounds - as you all can see. =/
I want to get fit/toned and healthy, NOT lose weight so Don't Hate! =)

I can’t wait to hear which website you like better. (thanks for the links…)
