Wow, was Jared right?
I've started eating Subway Sandwiches instead of my normal McFare. Instead of a hamburger and fries, I'm chowing down on a turkey sub with lots of vegetables.
They have lettuce, tomato, black olives, pickles, peppers (green, banana and jalapeno), spinach and cucumber! To check this against the volumetrics diet system, if you divide the number of calories in a sandwich (280 for the six inch turkey breast) by the weight in grams (225 for that sandwich), and get a number close to or less than two, I'm doing great--- and I am, with 280/225 being about 1.25! (of course that doesn't include cheese or dressing).
I don't need the cheese or mayo for a delicious sandwich; I'm getting the deli mustard (lower in fats) and having them put it on one of their seven grain bread options. If I get iced tea or water instead of my soda, I'm practically eating healthy! Of course, sometimes I get the cheese. They'll toast it too, making it a turkey melt sort of tasty meal.

Looking for something new
Wow, the Wii Fit and I are rocking, but I'm thinking of another package to shake it up a little.
Jenny McCarthy ... I'm sorry, honey, I can't help you any more. Your stupid stuff on autism ... I just can't help you. I've loved you, you brought me through my teen years, I've killed untold kittens fapping to you, but we're through.
My Fitness Coach and Nutrition Director, however; well, this might be interesting too. I wonder if it'll help support my volumetrics diet. Think there's some settings in it to help me find foods on that volumetrics food list?

Volumetrics
Oh this isn't going to be as bad as I thought.
Volumetrics is the idea of eating things that take up a lot of space in my (large) belly. Lots of fiber, fresh fruits, vegetables and water. Not so much cheese and nuts, though. There's a nice volumetrics food list over here. I was worried that I was going to be counting points, eating two of those teeny little diet lunches, trying to make my meals all grapefruit.
I hate grapefruit.
But instead, I've got to guzzle my water down and eat this apple, then I should be ok to go eat that slice of pizza. It's all about filling up on volume.
And the Wii wasn't so bad this morning. I was down half a pound. I'm going to start easy, doing yoga every morning and then one of the aerobic games. Getting this thing whittled down!
