Stressin'
Its a common excuse, but I'm stressing bad and feel like my diet is suffering because of it.
Today I am starting out strong. My plans are as follows:
Only one cup of coffee & a small piece of blueberry breakfast cake. (This is in comparison to 2 large cups of coffee and 2 slices of breakfast pastry).
Lunch is tomatoes & broccoli w/ feta & italian dressing + half an everything bagel with 1/2 tbs cream cheese.
On call for snacks is a banana (with peanut butter if I get desperate), an empire apple (I hope its not mealy), a yogurt cup, and m&ms.
3 sports bottles of water and any tea that I want.
Dinner will be salad and ravioli with the high likelihood of an alcoholic beverage.
On to the stress part:
One of my very close friends is away in a foreign hostile country - putting me in a constant state of anxiety. I usually text message them all day long along with emails and IMing in the evenings and an occasional phone call. Now it is a sporadic email maybe every 2 days and if I get text messages they are because he is scared. :( I am being strong for him but just learned the trip has been extended (he was supposed to be home Wednesday) and maybe he will be home on the weekend. Time is dragging. I know I can't change it, but it helps a little to share.
