What is my diet based on?

Just so you know my diet is inspired by Jillian Michaels' Making the Cut "High Oxidizer" Diet and also the Oxygen magazine diet of Spring 2009. The idea is to eat small frequent meals, mostly protein and vegetables with a bit of whole grain carbs. Also, the idea is to limit calories according to a formula, according to height, weight, gender, activity level etc (The formula said about 1350 calories for me in Making the Cut). I plan to limit my calories from 1200-1600 per day. Restaurant days will be at the high end. Other days will be at the low end.

Preparing for day two: Pacing myself

My goal for tomorrow is to allow myself more time to get to places, get ready, etc so I'm not late again.
Today I was late for bootcamp. Sometimes I try so hard, I make a mistake and flub. Other times I'm just careless. There's something to relaxing, and pacing myself so things come easier.
