Oh, was I ever in a wretched mood last night! I ate several fancy dessert glasses full of double-churn ice cream and read on the couch as a “remedy.” I know that I should not use food to feel better, but the sick thing is that it worked. I relaxed a bit, [...]

Something new!

Daily weigh-in: 153.8 lbs (I think this is temporary)
Instead of eating more quinoa for lunch, I made a carrot salad that I saw posted on KathEats. I realized that it wouldn’t be enough for lunch, so I decided to shake things up and bring some Yo-Plus, too. We’ll see how it goes.
Kickboxing was okay yesterday. [...]
Wake-up call

It never fails to amaze me when I’m thrown off my game. This time, I sat back afterwards and thought, “Oh, that’s why that happened.” And I felt better about it. Other times, an afternoon meltdown would have presaged another and another and another, all getting worse because of the guilt. But instead, I woke [...]
Finals/Vegas countdown

Sometimes time flies by so fast that it scares me a little–seriously, where has the time gone?? I need to start studying with finals in mind…and I still don’t have a job lined up for this summer.* At least vacation is coming up, and with it more and more motivation to work out. I [...]
A hit-and-miss weekend

I have a feeling tomorrow’s weigh-in will not please me. I have not planned well, so I’ve had to rely on meals procured on the run (including snacks from a coffee shop). I over-indulged several times, but fortunately I did balance some of that out with light meals.
I tried part of a new [...]
Too much wine

Last night, I went to An Event/Fundraiser. We were all dressed up, and I thought I looked pretty good…then I saw a photo someone took! I hope to god it was the angle, but I looked puffy. It definitely made me realize that I need to spend more time on my arms! [...]
Endorphins are my favorite

Kickboxing is becoming more and more difficult. She is really, really pushing us. It’s great. I think I burned even more calories than normal today!
Today went well food-wise until I got home. The temporary hunger block from a hard workout disappeared and I was ravenous! I tried the tofu shirataki noodles…NOT [...]
Thursday!

Everyone loves short work weeks. I am no exception! It’s particularly nice that it’s Thursday because my bedtime last night was much later than normal.
Yesterday, I had errands to run after studying. By the time I returned home, the mini-gym at the apartment was crowded. It stayed that way for quite some [...]
Happy in February?
Posted in daily goals, daily weigh-in on February 20, 2008 | Leave a Comment »
Usually, February is the dreariest month. The first few weeks definitely felt “blah” to me. But lately, things are feeling better. I think that’s why the fact that yesterday’s weigh-in was a bit of a fluke doesn’t bother me too much. Today’s read 152.0 lbs.
This morning, I was in the mood [...]
Fidel steps down, and so does my scale

It’s a weird day all around, everyone. My daily weigh-in was 151.0 lbs (I should go to bed feeling slightly hungry more often). I’m pretty sure this is an outlier.
I’m getting a free lunch today; to offset the calories, I’m going to pick whatever vegan option is offered. I also brought healthy snacks to keep [...]
