Very Interesting
FitDay has some handy-dandy reports, and I can track my progress over time. I've set up some goals for myself for min/max calories, fat, carbohydrates, fiber, protein, and water. After recording my food intake for the past month, here is the verdict:
Daily average over last month: 1417.5 calories, 43.05 g's of fat, 175.2 g's of carbs, 17.54 g's of fiber, 66.8 g's of protein, 2549 g's of water.
Daily average over last two weeks: 1362.7 calories, 41.48 g's of fat, 167.9 g's of carbs, 16.49 g's of fiber, 63.06 g's of protein, 2878 g's of water.
Daily average over last week: 1398.1 calories, 39.8 g's of fat, 175 g's of carbs, 14.2 g's of fiber, 61.2 g's of protein, 2499 g's of water.
This helps me to see where I need to improve. I think an increase in fiber and protein is in order - and fiber's impossible to increase without increasing carbs, which is where I need to *decrease*. My calories are just a teeny bit high (my goal is no more than 1350 a day), and I could definitely stand to decrease my fat (my upper limit is 40, and I'm always right at the limit). But overall I don't think I'm doing badly at all.
The frequency that I work out is improving - I worked out Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, skipped yesterday, and I intend to work out tonight. I need to increase the time I spend doing cardio (I've been doing 20 minutes in the morning instead of 30 - it's all I have the energy for at 6:00 a.m.!), and I only did weight training one night this week, so I really need to get on the ball there.
I'm working on a "vitals" page, which will have all my weight and measurement information, plus my intended eating habits and workout routines. You know, just in case you're dying to know.
So that's the scoop on what's going on with me, fitness-wise, lately.
