So today when I went to the nutritionist it kinda started to all make since and I realized everything I’ve done has been all wrong. Weight Watchers is hands down the smartest most feasible plan i’ve ever done, however i realize now that even though i was staying with my points range I was eating to many carbs and still out of control portions, instead of more balanced meals with smaller portions being stretched throughout the day. Also the nutritionist was telling me not to be afraid to used oil, mainly olive oil or canola, she told me to use in moderation but to not to even worry about measuring it. So that should help with salads and marinades and also when cooking vegetables and proteins this will add more flavor. This was an interesting revalation to me because I had always thought that I had to avoid this completely because of the high fat content.

Now I have to try to figure out how to work this into my life. I’m not a big cooker since i am a student and I also work second shift… So its been all about grab and go and convenience…. I get the feeling in order to make this work though i’m gonna need to figure something out here. If not i’m gonna stay in this vicious cycle of ordering dinner out from work everynight with coworkers and eating all the wrong portions and types of food….. Maybe I need to start cooking a couple days a week but enough to last for a few days, or maybe make my own “frozen dinners” …. On other diets that I’ve tried I did alot of store bought diet type frozen meals for dinner, but the nutritionist told me I should try to stay away from that since most of them are high in carb contect and also sodium. I don’t know I’m still trying to figure all this out but I wanted to share. Thats all I got for now. I hope everyone’s doing well and i’ll keep you up to date on how this new leg of the journey goes!
