summer

hello hello!

finally home for the summer. trying out a new diet plan. i'm seeing how well that 5-6 small meals a day thing works. it's only going to last a couple weeks b/c once i start work we have specific times for eating meals, so that kills that. calculating the time and amount of food to eat during each small meal is kind of challenging. i think america lives for the 3 meals, and the biggest always being dinner. which is too heavy. but here are some of the meal options i've thought of so far:
  • 2 eggs scrambled with an assortment of veggies
  • plain yogurt with a fruit
  • some sort of korean food that i'll try to calculate the calories for
  • walnuts/almonds and cheese
  • fruit & cheese
  • banana and peanut butter
  • tuna and salad
i'll add some more as i try this out. today is my official first day of trying out small meals. i think it would be impossible to do that with a real job b/c u r only technically given a lunch break. plus, it would take a lot of energy to plan all the meals for the day and carry them around.

trying a modified south beach diet.
plus, i'm working out everyday, bought a bike at walmart for $65. we'll see how long it lasts.
