Marginally Unsettling Fail or You are what you eat

Yesterday was supposed to be a food tracking day.  I failed at doing that task and I don’t think I will be able to do that today either.  I have no excuse for not completing the task except that I didn't pick up a pen or attempt to type anything yesterday, until the wee hours of the night.  When composing these illustrious words.  Did I say before that I was a writer?

Food tracking, Food Diaries and Food Logs, I haven’t decided which term sounds better, are

important because it allows people like myself to see in writing what we are eating.  According to Kristin Kirkpatrick M.S., R.D., L.D., a Manager of Wellness Nutrition Services of Cleveland Clinic Wellness Institute, it helps us portion out our food and think before we snack and eat.  That is a paraphrase.  I don’t plan to do an official citing for this entry.  I got this from briefly looking at an article on Huffingpost.com.  Look it up if you need to. 

Evidencemag.com also gives us nine reasons why food tracking it great for weight loss and healthier living but I won’t go into it either.  Using the information is more work than I want to do today.  In the future I will put more effort in crafting these entries.  I have to do more efficient research on wellness and lifestyle change.  

Coming up with effective practices to attain a healthier lifestyle is more work than I imagined.  These words may seem pessimistic but I really don’t know how else to describe what I am doing.   The horrifying and nagging fact and to quote the Barenaked Ladies, who are all men and Canadian, “It has all been done before”.  This will be my continued whine and rant for the next 100 days.   There is a large number of website blogs that focus on and chronicle the healthier lifestyle change and weight loss journey of so many people.  They have been way more successful with their website blogs and goals than I have been.  I am a little overwhelmed with my attempt since I have yet to reach my goal.  Crafting and entertaining, sometimes education and enlightening post is work not often appreciated.  Because I want all my post to end with a positive optimistic note.  I will type that it will get better in time and I will not give up.  I don’t plan to.  However I believe I will rant and rage about it until I get the desired result.
