Well, I broke down and decided to count my calories. I hate doing that! I figured if I eat well and exercise it shouldn't matter. But, after my little freak out yesterday I figured its time. I downloaded the "My Fitness Pal" app onto my iPhone. With my height and weight I am allowed 1480 calories a day. Its actually a really neat app and is really easy to use. You can even scan the bar code of what you ate and it will automatically enter it for you. You just adjust how many servings you had.
You can also log your exercise. Of course, I have to improvise because they don't have Zwow's in their archives. LOL. They need to get on that ASAP! I just said I did 10 minutes of Circuit training. It said I burned 90 Calories but I'm assuming I burned more than that considering the intensity of a Zwow, but I'll just keep logging it as circuit training, unless you all have suggestions!
So here is my diary for yesterday.
