Taking a break fromdoing minimal school work...
So I'm in this constant battle of attempting to lose weight. I go through times where I am working hard for a week and a half, then something happens and I take a week off. So far so good, minus the fact that I haven't had money to go grocery shopping to buy my necessary fruits and veggies for the week. That's another story that I really don't even want to think about. It definitely makes me think that lower income people/families really have very little options for being healthy/losing weight. Fruits and veggies cost a ridiculous amount of money. Anyhow. I weighed yesterday. 136 pounds. I'm writing this in hopes that maybe blogging will help hold me accountable. I haven't told anyone how much I weigh. Maybe by knowing that someone will read again next week, it will make me work hard to not have to write that same number. Am I even making sense??
Since I am running low on foods here, I had a piece of toast this morning for breakfast, with jelly. I would have paired it with some fruit if I actually had some. Then for lunch, I had some left over pasta salad my mom made and the rest of her homemade fruit salad. I have no clue what Dustin and I will do for dinner tonight. Probably eat fast food...it'll be difficult. I have been craving Chik Fil-A. Luckily, I don't have money to do a chicken egg & cheese bagel this week. Since I haven't eaten much today, I guess the fast food calories will balance me out.
I went to the gym. I really didn't feel like it though. I did one of the glamour.com mp3 workouts that I put on my ipod (which I absolutely love, nothing is better than having someone talking to you telling you exactly what to do). I did the core workout. It was hard! I was sweating after only 10 minutes. Then I did 30 mins. random hill on the stationary bike. That really sucked. I had set it for 60 mins, but I was getting so bored. I couldn't really read a magazine or anything. So after 30 mins. I switched to the treadmill. I did my usual run/walk. Next week I think I will switch to run 6 mins and walk 4 mins. Today was a success so far...Still bored though sitting around doing school crap.
