Day 2 of tracking

I'm hungry. I'm not sure if it's because of the mental restriction of: DONT EAT OFF PLAN. But I really can't wait to go home to eat. It's no fun tracking your food when you are eating at a caloric deficit.

I still need to figure out the rest of my dinner, but here's the current plan:

Track, baby, track

I am now back on the myfitnesspal bandwagon. I've proven that I can maintain, now I want to see if I can lean out again.

Here's what day 1 looks like:

I'm over on calories, but at this point I just want to get back into the process of logging.

I'm sort of all over the place: sometimes I'm tracking, other times I'm not... A healthy lifestyle is a journey, and never trust anyone who thinks they have it all figured out. It's natural to ebb and flow. Test the waters and see what works best for you. One day it may be more strict planning, and other times you may only have the focus to thumbnail it. Neither approach is wrong. You have so many tools in your toolkit!

After looks a lot like Before

My goal for 2014 is maintenance. If I can go a whole year without gaining a lot of fat, I will call the goal obtained. From left to right: January, march, and July.

 You don't really see a difference, right? So far, success. And surprisingly I have about 1.5% less body fat now, compared to the beginning of the year. It's probably due to muscle weight from lifting.
