Comfort with my food: a bad thing?

As stated, Heather and I have started this calorie count thing on caloriecount.about.com. Some people say "blah" to counting calories, but the great thing about this site is that you log the kind of food that you eat throughout the day and based on how healthy that food is, determines the score you get. I usually am at about a "B," which isn't bad, but not a great as I could be doing.

Now, the point of this post. Because a "B" is not that bad (seriously, I could be doing much worse) I am not trying to make it any better. Honestly, I don't think I have changed much since starting our "get in shape/weight loss" journey; I simply figured out where I was "score" wise, and was ok with it, now I'm sitting in that rut. The only real thing I've changed is that I have paid attention to what I eat a little more...but I haven't changed what I eat. Even though I get "B" on a day-to-day basis, I still don't feel like I am eating wonderfully.

Also, I need to work out. I need to take accountability! I haven't done that yet. I'll never improve until I'm willing to put that extra effort in. Sure, I participate in active activities, but for me, that's not working out. And I haven't felt a big change by doing just these activities (riding bikes, walking, hiking...pretty tame stuff).

Until next time,
Sam
