Its been 2 weeks i joined GHF but i have been lazy doing my workouts or tracking my nutrition. Thankfully its starting to change now. For the first time I cooked my own lunch which was way more healthy than what i get in office.

I am also looking forward to go to gym in the evening. Though its been 2 weeks i started on strength training but i am starting from week1 again today.

12 weeks from now I hope i have good results. I really feel like taking control of this part of my life.

I will post what meals i had during the day in the night before going to sleep.

Meals i had

Breakfast : Milk + porridge(oatmeal)

I decided to give Protrack a try, but I'm having some trouble. Is there a way for the software to tell me how many calories I've burned in a workout? It seems like it wants me to enter the amount I've burned but I have no way of knowing. All I can enter is the duration I worked out. Plus, I workout to tapes where exercises are constantly changing and cardio is included in bursts and I can't quite figure out how to enter in those kinds of workouts. Any advice?

Did more cleaning (several loads of stuff up and down stairs) last night. Was exhausted and didn't really want to exercise but (patting myself on the back) I put on the walking shoes and went up and walked the track again. 1 1/2 miles at pretty good pace.
