Losing Weight with Starscream

I should also get back into writing down everything I eat so that I am more accountable to it.

Not dieting as much as making much healthier choices on what I eat. It used to be fast food for breakfast and lunch and sometimes dinner. Now it's counting the calories I take in and making sure I don't eat as much bad stuff. Instead of a bag of doritos for a snack it's baby carrots; just changes like that. Also managed to swim 825 meters in half an hour this morning, which is up from 500 meters last friday and 700 meters yesterday. The time constraint is pretty rigid, so I just have to keep pushing myself to do more in the time I have. The thing that surprises me most is that I don't feel tired afterward, or at any point in the day for that matter.
