not such a good week, so far
Monday: fudge cookies, 8 or so?
Tuesday: can't remember...
Wednesday: Pizza, like 5 pieces
Thursday: too little in the first part of the day, then ate 1000+ calories for dinner
Friday? Better, I hope.
I have a really poor relationship with food, my body, my self image, sleep, etc. I think a lot of this week is wound up in tiredness that has come from a weird bout of insomnia. Insomnia inspired by stress? I dunno, perhaps. Today became a rest day, instead of a 3 mile day. I missed my last rest day (Friday) 'cause I wanted to run and go snowshoeing, so this rest was probably needed, but the food surely wasn't.
Sigh.
Reading Wintergirls, for work, and I can see it being a not so good choice for me right now.
On a different note: I like eating natural, good, wholesome food. (I often eat too much of it, but that's another story...) The thing I miss, though? The thing I crave? Pop! Full calorie or diet, over ice, with a straw, tons of caffeine. Mmmm. I haven't found a good substitute for that, yet. Many of the more wholesome sodas (Hansen's, and the like) have decided that caffeine is a bad thing. Bummer. And coffee or tea is most definitely not a good stand in; they have caffeine, but not paired with the right taste, nor the bubbles. Alas.
