Yeah, I've been trying to add more protein into my diet. P90X comes with a nutrition guide so I've been trying to get some ideas from that. Specifically, things that are easy to cook and not crazy expensive. That program is also very centered around body building type stuff along with cardio. I figure I can't go wrong by running two miles a day either lol.

You're certainly right about eating more to loose weight though. I feel so much healthier and more energetic when I get enough calories. It's just about eating the good stuff.

I finished day three strong today- but I had Chinese food for dinner (there's this AMAZING take out place right on my way home from work.....plus my husband asked lol)

Actually, for me that's my biggest obstacle- my husband. He's a bean pole with the metabolism of a five-year old. He actually ate fast food for every meal for two weeks and didn't gain a pound. It's absolutely ridiculous. The problem with this is that he really doesn't understand that not everybody is like that. I can't eat whatever I want. I've never been able too. However, it makes me feel embarrassed to have to turn him down lol. I should probably get over that ^^

I'll keep posting about my progress! My goal is to loose seventy pounds total. It feels like I have forever to go...
