- Staying hydrated
- Taking daily vitamins
- Hitting daily protein requirements
I limited it to 3 things that I need to focus on currently. I know there are more, but 3 is a manageable number. So if ever I feel overwhelmed, I'll just remember these three things and when they become habits, I'll move on to the next three things.
Staying hydrated- I used to be really good at drinking water because if I don't drink enough water, I get migraines. Then I slowly tapered of, and I'm guessing my body got used to it. I want to go back to migraine reminders! Haha. But yeah, getting that 1.5 liter of water a day is necessary. Cleans out my system.
Taking daily vitamins- I got my daily vitamins from GNC, need to be good and consistent about this. I have my One a Day as well, but it becomes like One when I remember. Since I can be inconsistent about eating, I need my vitamins.
Hitting daily protein requirements- I'm so bad with this because I'm trying to hit 1200-1500 calories. I'm getting like 80-100 grams of protein and its supposed to be 1 gram of protein per 1 pound you weigh. I don't weight 80-100 pounds. Trying to find protein rich foods without adding too much calories to my daily intake. I should be hitting at least 150 grams. I'm doing better with this, its just being smart about what I eat and stuff, but protein is necessary since I'm doing P90x which is for muscle and I need to feed these crazy muscles.
So yeah, these are my current focus, maybe in a month or two, or three, I'll have new ones.
