six week core evolution part 2: food records


Photo by appleogen.be
One of the most important things about working with Julie was the ongoing support that she gave me.  Each day I would email her my food records, along with any other nutrition questions that came up along the way.  She was always accessible, knowledgable, and most of all, encouraging.

Bloggers are not supposed to bore readers with topics like "what I had for lunch" ;) but I thought I would go ahead and share some sample food records in order to illustrate what a typical day looked like using (my interpretation of) the guidelines she gave me.  (These include my exercise records also.  I will elaborate more on the exercise portion of my journey in another post.)
