Patterns
I have a couple of crap days, feel depressed and lousy, and don’t eat well, and don’t get to the gym.
Then when I snap out of it, and eat a good breakfast and am on target to eat right and want to do good, I’m starving during the day.
Perpetual cycle. This is why you should just do good.
Breakfast: 1/2c egg beaters (I need to go grocery shopping post vacation) w/ spinach &...
7. By this point in my relationship, the feelings I’m developing for [Trevor]...

I’m on both sides of this. This is a brand new point of a relationship with Jay. Terrifying, Scary, & Wonderful.
You know when you think you have everything...
And then you have second thoughts and you’re not sure you do?
And then you don’t know who to talk to about it with?
Geographically there’s no one around, and even if they were, I’m not sure how words would come out. I’m probably making something out nothing.
There are just thoughts. I wish things were easier.
I wish people were here

And then I ate most of it this afternoon at home.
And this is why I suck at life.
Thank You

Only 1 more work day till the holidays
And I’ll be in the air across the states to New England to visit my family.
Also known as Weigh In Tuesday.
FINALLY: 191.2 Last Wk: 192.6 Mid Week: 198 (what??) Loss: 1.4 lbs
Then went and ate all the gyros tonight, but I laughed the whole time, so my tummy was shaking, like the shake weight, so it all went away?
Seriously though, I had very good breakfast and a good lunch and so had...

And the worst of it?
When I realized I’m “obese” again, which was just a couple weeks ago.
I’m no longer “overweight”, like I was. I had 20lbs to go to being “normal” but I felt fantastic, label or not.
Now.
I’m Obese.
It feels terrible.

And Speaking Of Mental Health...
A long weekend with the LDR Boyfriend was exactly what the doctor ordered.
Except now he’s gone again.
And it’s sad. But I had such a wonderful weekend.
Tonight was Great.
Two months ago if I did the same exact thing, it would have been Thursday, but tonight, in my new world where I feel alone a lot of the time and haven’t decided on this new city, I had a wonderful time.
I laughed a lot, shared sarcasm, had some drinks, and enjoyed myself.
We won’t talk about caloric intake of those drinks or how I decided to snack on Italian loaf & M&Ms prior...

After today’s craziness, I got home snacked on some edamame and went to the grocery store to make dinner! And the result was this:
And I attempted the previously reblogged zucchini & tomato app things, but did it without discovering the the recipe thing first, so I kind of made it up, and it was pretty good, but has room for improvement!
But flavors were there and yummy! (just...

Drink more water!
::fills up 24oz cup for 3rd (maybe even 4th) time today::
And I had my banana like 20 min ago.
And I’m planning my dinner now (shrimp, tofu shiritaki noodles, red sauce, green peppers, asparagus for anyone that’s curious)
Edit: It’s just so frustrating. Now at almost 3pm, my stomach feels like I haven’t...

It's 12:11pm
I woke up late (and oddly super hungry) so I ate my VitaTop breakfast sandwich once I got to work at 9a (mixed reviews on that… I added some Frank’s to make it better, it’s a little weirdly moist, but still dry, if that makes sense?
But I ate that at 9a, still hungry.
At 1045a-ish, ate a yogurt.
1145ish, I heated up the meatloaf I brought for lunch and the 5 asaparagus spears...

Summary of the rest of my night:
Grocery Shopping & Dinner with HIMYM
I’ve been wearing this dress with a t-shirt underneath so I decided to just take the sleeves off the shirt and attach them to the dress! But I don’t really sew and don’t have a machine, so that was fun.
And then I went crazy and sewed on a button and then finished the few loose parts on my...

Lunch
My cleaning break:
Grilled Chicken/Avocado Pita (the other half of last night’s chicken breast)
And Minestrone Soup:
Tricking the Eye…
This is 1 cup of soup and it barely fits in the bowl. I found these bowls when I moved (I had them in the back of the hutch and didn’t use them). They’re small and wonderful. It helps portion control with soups, cereal, etc, instead...
Day Off: The Productive Version
I’m off today and getting into the necessary cleaning & putting away in my apartment that’s been needed since my family left & the holiday festivities happened.
I got right into this morning. Made my pot of coffee and before I made breakfast I did the dishes. Then got into something else, and something else, and then before I knew it I had drank my whole pot of coffee and it...

New Food! Tofu Shirataki Noodle Substitute
Discovered from Hungry Girl, this was described as “bouncier” noodles and I couldn’t figure out how that would work, but apparently, it’s true. I never would have used the word myself to describe it, but it’s true?
This is Hungry Girl’s Fettuccine Alfredo swap. Except on the website it uses Laughing Cow cheese, and I used the one the back of the bag which...

Friday Night's All Right...
I spend the night at the grocery store & in my kitchen, and it was a great night!
I discovered Central Market and loved it. Rivals Wegman’s in a serious way. Especially for a girl who hasn’t had access to a W\egman’s in over 3 years.
But I made a turkey meatloaf (came out to 3 points a slice!) and Hungry Girl’s twist on mashed potatoes (now the second time I’ve...
