goals for tomorrow

NO CAKE!!! (meaning I can have a small cone of soft serve- (It's not that bad for you) IF I have a healthy lunch.

Exercise: I will look for a chiro and give my full effort in dance class.

Weigh in-and more.

147.2lbs.

here's what I had today.

10am 100 cal yogurt.

1:00-tuna salad with iceberg lettuce, onions, and tomatos, some rice with baked beans. (I know baked beans are bad!) BUT!! The worst part is coming: a piece of chocolate cake with soft serve ice cream and crushed nuts. (I get cravings for ice cream and cake! I need to not eat it!)

4:00-bag of microwaved popcorn! (YUP I KNOW!) 100 cal bag of turkey jerky. (yeah-I'm a loser for the jerky)

5:00-small skim mocha w/o whip cream

11:00- pepper jack cheese and an apple.

I drank a lot of water today. It's been hard to exercise outside of rehearsal and dance class cuz my neck and back are in a LOT of pain. I'm trying to find a chiro around here though.

it's been a while

Hey,
I know it's been a while, I've had an awful weekend...food wise and life-wise. Hey look! I've found a correlation, when I'm stressed I eat.

Today, I've eaten some oriental snack mix, carrots, a bagel with cream cheese, a tortilla with some cheese and salsa, some oatmeal cream pies. WAY too much food. I'm not eating anymore today.

Tomorrow I will once again report time and amount of food i'm eating...

i'm going to nap.

setting some goals for tomorrow:

I will run tomorrow.

I will eat NO cake or ice cream.

thurs

there were some good moments, and some slip ups...

8:16 granola bar

9:20-oh no! Emily brought brownies because it was her birthday. I had two small brownies. GOsh darnit!

1:00 some gatorade and a handful of Kashi cereal

5:10pm a grain burger with a slice of american cheese on it, a salad with some red vinegar on it, and some tator tots! (not too many though like 5! i swear,) but then I ate a piece of cake with some soft serve! gosh darnit! Plus, I think it's the sweets that make me want to eat more.

6:00-a couple fries. (Gosh! I'm a moocher! if i wasn't i bet i'd lose some pounds-it's just sooo hard to say no to food if someone offers it to you.)

it's now 8:00, I am going to starbucks with Kiki. I will get a nonfat, sugar free latte.

after dinner and wed

Well, last night I ate a veggie sub and tomato soup, and a small bag of cheddar chex mix...

Then I had a nonfat vanilla latte later that night.

Today:

9:15--eggs w/ salsa, half a grapefruit, muesli (a grain cereal) with some honey and a smidge of butter. (I had an extra serving of eggs-I am an egg crazy girl!)

I didn't eat any lunch.

6:00--a veggie wrap (pepper jack cheese, mushrooms, tomatoes, romaine, onions w/ fat free ranch), a bag of popcorn.


8:30-granola bar.

I drank a good amount of water today too. I can't find my scale right now, which you think would be really easy to find considering that I live in pretty much a 12x12 square...but hey!

reporting...

well let's see...

Last night 5:20pm here's what happened. Let night I went to debot, got green beans, sourkraut with a couple pieces of polish sausage, and butternut squash...then I had a small piece of lemon cake and some soft serve vanilla ice cream on the side...

Last night
9:40-The reason I love college so much is how much RANDOM food runs people go for. So of course, my friends went to KFC, and I had bites of their mashed pot and three pieces of boneless honey bbq wings!!! Ugg, but besides that I ate pretty yesturday.

today:

8:20--half a grapefruit, eggs, toast with some cream cheese and jam on it.

11:30--A nature valley granola bar

12:30-an ENITRE bag of light popcorn and two poptarts!! (GURR! sugar is going to be the end of me!) I was just sooo in the mood for something and I didn't know what. That's when I end up eating the most. (I think usually in those situations you're probably actually thirsty for water-or I heard that somewhere.

Usually I'm pretty good about not eating in the afternoon time. I had dance today. Tomorrow I plan to implement my "go to gym between my two hour break between classes." I'm excited. I'd be even more excited if my Ipod was here yet... but meh what can you do?

At least I'm starting somewhere-and being aware of what I'm putting into my body, even if it's not good stuff.

i'll write after dinner.

today! so far

So let's see. So far today I've eaten some beef jerky. (I know! I know!!). Then for breakfast/brunch I had half a grapfruit, some green tea, blueberry yogurt with granola...

Which I think is pretty good. I haven't eaten since then and I'm going to the caferteria at 6pm...I will NOT eat anything before that. :)

I didn't work out today because I'm not feeling too great, but I did a lot of breathing and stretching-so at least that's good.

I'll report dinner later.

weight-still 148.6

The rest of the day...How quickly can you forget!

Hello!

So, with the cafeteria closed and my tummy grouling, I went out to eat with my WONDERFUL roomate Becca. I went to a nice little cafe called "The blueberry muffin" and ordered a veggie and cheese omelettel, toast, and a coffee. The thing is-I probably should have just ate half of what was on my plate...but I didn't.

Later on I ate a small bag of baked potato chips.

For dinner I ate a personal size cheese pizza...

ANd...I ate some beef jerky just now...

I feel not too good about my food choices for the day. I actually like eating in the caferteria, because then I don't tend to eat as much-and they have LOTS of veggies and fruit there...I really should go there more often.

Also, I have found a time in my schedule on Mondays and Wednesdays where I an go to the YMCA and workout in between classes. I think that'll be fun. I start tomorrow. And! I have an IPOD coming to give me an extra boost of umm enthusiasm...(My friend found a first generation 2gb nano for me on Ebay as a birthday present. It's coming in the mail.) So that should really help. And once rehearsals start, I'll be dancing like no one's business.

MAN I CANNOT WAIT FOR THAT IPOD! I think I'll start making a workout playlist! Anygood song suggestions?

~Arwen

ugg fest. 148.6

Sometimes I just cannot believe my weight. It frustrates me that I am not smaller. Even though I "know" how to get smaller, I'm just not quite sure how to do it. I want instant results, like anybody else, and when I see that my weight has gone up, I start to freak out.

I'm beginning to accept my body, and like it for what it is, and through the process reshape it. I have started up dance classes-two times a week, plus I will have rehearsal every night soon, so I will have less time to eat, the only thing I need to worry about is not eating late after rehearsals, and I should be fine. Although, it is really hard for me to get to sleep on an empty stomach.

Isn't it awful that I'm having trouble NOT eating food, when other places on this planet, people having trouble finding enough food to eat!?!

It's so dumb. I'm going to try and wait to eat unless I feel hungry today.

My breakfast: a nature valley peanut granola bar: 180 calories.

love,
Arwen
