reevaluating (more diet stuff)

Yesterday I decided to take a break from blogging about diet stuff. It was brought to my attention by someone I respect greatly about keeping in mind that there are different body types.

Okay so as I mentioned before, I am 5'1 and 105 lbs. My BMI is about a 19.5 which is "healthy" FOR MY HEIGHT. When I say Im mentioning a good meal plan for the day you need to keep consideration of this. If you are 5'4 and 120lbs you will probably need about 300-500 more calories than me. So what you can do is to up the portions and I forgot to mention how important it is to take a daily vitamin. I am fully aware that it is very difficult to literally eat every vitamin you need in one day. I use a daily womens vitamin from trader joes and I don't have to worry about lacking anywhere.

So what I am going to do is, Im going to blog about what I would eat for the day. I dont want to prescribe a diet because I cant see each one of you face to face and take in consideration lifestyles and health problems. I believe if you are the averaged height girl and you are looking to loose 10-20 lbs then you will succeed. There are important rules that I lived my life by and I succeeded.
Rule number one: No enriched, refined white flour
Rule number two: No Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream
Rule number three: Exercise is a MUST

Its really simple and if you have the drive and discipline I believe you can do this too.
