I just got off my treadmill and I feel SICK! I walked for 30 minutes and rode my stationary bike for about 10 minutes. This is the first time I have exercised in about 3 weeks even though I previously blogged I was going to exercise every day! What can I say, life always intervenes. But today I decided to buckle down and really exercise...so from 5pm until 6pm I WILL be exercising...everyday....no matter what!
Now, I did not say I would be dieting because I cannot starve myself, but I think counting calories go a long way in anyone's fitness regimen. Take lunch for example, we ordered Burger King...so let's see what my total calorie count for today's lunch was:
Whopper: 670 calories
Lg fries: 450 calories
Lg. Coca-Cola: 255 calories
-------------------------------
Total: 1375 calories
Yikes! That is a LOT for one meal!! I am only supposed to eat 1700 calories per day according to a fitness website based on my height/weight if I want to lose weight!
No one counts calories in Kuwait, but they should. Heart disease is the leading cause of death for women and diabetes is so rampant here.
I remember seeing Dr. Oz on Oprah once and he said that you can still eat fast food but everything has to do with portion. He said that the size of a kid's happy meal is the exact size that an adult should be eating. Not the gargantuan burgers that they have on the adult menu.
So from now on I will be ordering from the kids menu whether it is McDonald's or where ever and limiting fast food to only Thursday or Friday.

whoaaaaaaa!! u don't have to order from the kids meal, but u shouldn't order a large size one either! Junior Whopper, with regular fries. u don't need the coke, just drink water instead. coke is sooo bad for u anyway!

just a note, the time i posted this post its 11:3o pm so i dunno how its appearing as 1st June :P
Thanks for the tips!! For me fast food IS mom's home-cooking. My mother never, ever, ever cooked. I don't know how we survived (My 2 bros and 1 sis). We ate mostly stuff that couldbe boiled like pasta. And microwaved ready-made meals...Ugh! So, when I get homesick, etc, I turn right to the fast food joints! But I am doing better.
Now I only eat on Thursday/Friday!
Oh and the Whopper Jr. is a great idea!! But for McDonald's I think it is just 1 happy meal...that's the restaurant Dr. Oz was specific about because ALL Americans are crazay over McDonald's!
Oh and about the time...yeah it is seriouly screwed up. I set the blog on the appropriate time....any ideas how I can fix it???
i wish i could help in fixing the time, i myself cant figure how to make my own blog :) i need help on that so any tips are welcome ....
