new diet

lunch at work

for.. like, all my life, I have been eating crap-food.

I have a high metabolism, so, basically, I dont get fat...so with that in mind I have always lived by a motto: "I can eat whatever and as much as I want :D" - haha. But no.. thanks to that I was a 19 year old girl that was in so bad shape that walking my dog became a super tiering task, and dont get me started on WORK! Im the youngest one at work, but I was the only one ALWAYS tired before I got to work, always headache, always worn out even though I had done NOTHING.

I was a 19 year old with horrible health.

so i decided to change that!

so instead of my normal lunch, which would be scalloped potatoes, chicken, potatochips and coca cola, I went with this:

yummy meat-soup, which is a light lunch.

and it leaves you feeling full but not stuffed! and refreshed and rested.

the heavy potato-chicken-chips-soda lunch just left me stuffed, tired and sleepy, like a big dinner would.

instead of sugar soda i went for tropical juice.

which is REALLY good btw!

no added sugar, only the natural sugar from the fruits.

and instead of chips, chili nuts

Im not sure if this is truly a healthy lunch, but I have to keep in mind that I DONT GET FAT.

so, by eating healthier, I also must eat much more than Im used to, and I can eat outside of meals, and I can allow myself to eat non-healty stuff on the side, just not only non-healty.

I need fat and carbs.

i dont know.... but! Ive been doing this diet for about a week and I can feel the results.

instead of being tired and sleepy BEFORE I come to work and exhausted after 4 hours of work, I now and well rested and energetic when coming to work, and I can easily manage 8 hours of work and still have lots of energy left to tidy up a bit at home, as of before I crashed on the couch and fell asleep, feeling crappy the rest of the evening.

I feel better and thats really all that matters :)

its not a weightloss diet, its an energy-diet :P
