Readers, (of which there are two! Hi there!) today will not be my day, calorie wise, just as yesterday and the day before were not, and I had no time to weigh myself this morning. I had an Indian buffet with my mom and sister today (940 cal) and I will have spaghetti carbonara for dinner (544 cal) on Saturday. On Sunday I had Wingstop, (700 cal) and chicken pasta (??????? cal) and I have started off today with a taco. I am surprised that these last few days have not caused me to gain weight. I am, in fact, down three pounds yesterday since I started, so 113.6.I am absolutely baffled as to why this is, but for now I will not look a gift horse in the mouth.
This week has been a total loss of control. First, my flight back to school was cancelled, so though I am flying out today I will miss all of my first classes, my eating has been off because my parents were constantly taking me out to eat ("Oh, but this may be your last meal with us!"), my furniture shipped to my parents' house instead of my apartment and on and on and on and on. I am really stressed (I'm already a high anxiety person). I hope that once I get to DC I can finally get things in order and make a personal space for myself.
Sorry for the short post, I know that wasn't interesting! I hope you guys who are following will take the time to leave a comment and introduce yourselves! I would love to hear from you. :)

{Edit: My flight to Charlotte just got delayed by two hours, which meant that it would arrive at 7, an hour after the connecting flight to DC is scheduled to leave. SO I had to haul my ass back out of the terminals, out of the "secure" area of the airport, heckle the reservation people at the front desk for an hour only to be told there are NOOO open flights to anywhere near DC. Of course I wasn't going to stand for that. So, I sat my ass down on some cold, hard tile, called the airline, booked another flight for no cost in under 5 minutes, and returned to stand in line, have the reservation people at the front desk look at me funny, take 20 minutes to process the reservation, and go back through security.
I can already tell today is going to be a good day.}
I love Neutral Milk Hotel :]
ReplyDeleteI can't believe you read my archive! I didn't think I was that interesting...but after reading your posts you know exactly how it goes, you stop eating certain meals and start looking smaller and smaller and the rush is too much to give up. College changes everything too, as you're on your own and your parents aren't around to make sure you're eating. If you ever need anyone to talk to, I like texting buddies and the like :]
Just keep at it love, your body burns 700 calories a day just working I think and aslong as you try to stick under 1200 it should work just takes a bit longer. I gained weight when I went to uni because I constantly ate convenience food but in retrospect it would've been so easy to lose weight as you are in complete control! Don't give up, good luck xxx
