Journey to Losing Weight 2
So I had decided to work on my portion control and use the app myfitnesspal to help track what I eat.
I wasn't using myfitnesspal as often as I should have but I did use it for quite a while. I have to say that I absolutely love this app. At first I ate what I normally to see where I was lacking in nutrients as well as to see how much calories I was taking in. I was definitely shocked to see the results. I was eating a lot of calories and not enough nutritious food to balance my meals.
I few things that I have noticed are, even though I don't eat a lot of fatty foods, I take in way too much sugar and carbs. I also wasn't getting a lot of vitamins from the foods I ate as well.
After seeing the results, I definitely changed the way I ate. I notice that now my food intake is more balanced and more nutritious. I have also improved in portion control as well. Although I'm still not 100% on the portion control, I am definitely getting better at it. I have started to use smaller plates and eating a healthy snack in between my meals to help me eat less during my meals.
So far this journey is getting better but I still have a long way to go.

Journey to Losing Weight 1
One huge problem that I have though is eating. It's not that I eat unhealthy foods, because I've been working on that, but now I'm having a hard time with portion control and having a set time for eating. I don't wake up at the same time everyday so my breakfast is at a different time almost everyday. I have a hard time with setting my eating time. I'm also having a hard time with portion control. I know how much I should be eating but I keep on wanting to eat more then I need to.
So far my journey has been alright, I hope to get better though. I plan on using myfitnesspal, which is an app that helps you count calories as well as how much fat, cholesterol, sugar, etc. that you are eating in one day. I hope that this app will help me not only control my portions but help me to have a more balanced diet as well.
Journey to Waist Length 2

After straighten my hair I ended up trimming a huge amount of my hair because the ends were sooooo horrible, I hadn't trimmed my hair in months. I think I trimmed off about 2 inches of hair and now my hair ends feel pretty good. I plan on combining the castor oil challenge with protective styles to maximize my hair growth.

Journey to Waist Length 1

Here are a few things I've decided to follow to get to waist length:
- Keeping my hair in low manipulation and protective hairstyles
- I plan on keeping my hair in protective styles that will last more then a week. If I don't have time to do a protective hairstyle then I'll keep it in a low manipulation style.
- Deep Conditioning my hair more often
- I plan on deep conditioning at least once a month and doing protein treatments more often as well. I haven't done a protein treatment in my hair in a long time and whenever I do a protein treatment my hair feels so nice and soft.
- Moisturizing my hair at least twice a week
- Trim my hair when needed
- Never using a comb
- I plan on using my fingers to detangle/comb my hair from now on. I tend to be rough when combing my hair so I hope this will help
