- Reducing snacking. This means eating more full, scheduled meals and having substantial snacks. I'm also trying to minimize snacking past a certain point before bedtime.
- Eat more 'good' foods. Regarding my health problems, I have found a website that lists food I should eat, ones I should be careful with, and ones I should completely avoid. I'm supposed to stick more to things like pasta, rice, bread, and potatoes. So basically, carbs.
- Avoid the 'bad' foods. As per the list of foods I should be eating, the "completely avoids" are things like caffeine, chocolate, coffee, dairy, and fatty foods. I have become much more conscious of eating less butter/oil, checking the fat content of packaged foods, and limiting dairy.
- Drink more water. Like I noted in my last post, I'm really bad with having enough water per day. This one's pretty self-explanatory.
- Exercise. This has been tough since my sleeping has been off. I'm spending the day with The Boy, so a short walk may be involved, but I'll definitely be back on track with this tomorrow.
- Sleeping. Basically, stop sleeping for 12+ hours. Friday night I hit 15, but that was after staying up Thursday into Friday after my ridiculous sleeping binge. I'm shooting for 10 as my "regular" number, for now.
