Diet Speculations
Tonight, at Jade Palace, a fortune floated in the goldfish tank. All the fish were trying to eat it and it read, "You continue to take chances and are glad to do so." This made me laugh so hard.
I never think of myself as super healthy, but lately as I evaluate my lifestyle and activities, I am kind of proud of myself. I eat right. I try and exercise daily. I sleep at least 6-7 hours a night. I feel I am taking good care of my body. I'm actually getting to the point where I think I need to eat more and gain muscle weight. My goal was to get back down to 115lbs, which I've almost done and people have been noticing the weight loss lately. Its weird because when I was right under 130, people started blatantly informing me that I was putting on weight and it didn't look good. That I needed to watched the tummy. Or when I told them what I weighed they would tell me that I "hid it well". Now, 15 pounds lighter and I'm too skinny. Its so hard to understand the standards this world expects of girls. It doesn't matter because I'm at the weight that I want to be at. I'm eating healthy and I'm not going to stop now that I've lost the weight. I hate when people at work see me eating raw veggies or fruit and question if I'm on a diet. I just like eating those foods on top of my carbs and sugars. I work out so that I can eat lots of cheese and dessert.
Anyway, I'm in a weird place where I like hearing that I look like I'm loosing weight but I no longer want to loose more. I've been trying real hard to eat lots of protein in hopes of gaining more muscle. I want a tone tummy. I want stronger arms.
Okies, well I'm off to work on some crafts and hit the hay.
