Ok so I have been trying to eat healthier these days and I heard that if you calorie count then you are more likely to lose a couple more pounds or have better results than people who dont. I promised I would never become one of these people but now that more then half my 20 pairs of jeans hardly fit without me doing some awkward poses to get everything in all the right places while putting them on, and even sometimes tripping over miscellaneous items spread around my bedroom floor, almost resulting in near death experiences, I thought this was a drastic measure for help. Because I have the new iphone 4s (no boasting here) I downloaded a calorie counter app and found out the amount of calories I need to consume in a day to reach my goal weight. After I cried a bit and said goodbye to my fast food coupons, and junk food in the cupboard, I entered my meals I had eaten on Monday to start off in my meal plan diary. For Monday alone I had gone over my calorie goal by 1112 calories and if that wasnt bad enough a little message box popped up telling me that if I continued to eat like this everyday I would weigh 146.3 lbs by May 1st. FML...
It was obvious I needed to go grocery shopping to fit my new dietary needs and more importantly back into all my cute clothes. My first problem was presented when driving down mayor magrath. I hadnt eaten since 8 that morning which wasnt enough to satisfy me for a couple of hours let half of the day and it was now 3pm and my levels of hunger were reaching an unsafe level of low to be driving, or even to be out in public for that matter. Since I am a sucker for any fast food place out there, I thought that if I could just get to walmart before breaking down and gorging myself at mcdonalds persay, than I had passed this "test" and there was more hope in me accomplishing this whole goal. As I said this was not an easy challenge, oh brother, easy challenge? Da heck??? Anyway, I somehow passed this test and I made it to walmart successfully without any unnessary stops at any fast food places. Important lesson to learn from going grocery shopping is to never go on an empty stomach. Some of the main reasons why that is, is because you fill your cart with so many random items that you neither need or can afford and you waste precious life putting everything back. Another reason is that you mostly fill your cart with complete junk that will bring you to 146.3 pounds alot quicker than may 1st. You also forget to calorie count but this may be because hunger made you forget how to count altogether. To make sure I was dead serious about this dieting and such I challenged myself to walk down all the junk food isles without putting anything in my cart. I am proud to announce that I was able to do this and because I did it and didnt have to run or walk with my eyes closed I awarded myself one big bag of old dutch BBQ chips. YAY me!!! Since then, I have been recording everything that I eat and have been resisting any fast food. Day 2 has begun an hour ago...FML.
I have got to do some fun and exciting things lately. 2 weeks ago I got the honor and pleasure of house sitting at my sister's home while watching her 2 animals for the weekend, while she went away to vegas to my bestfriend's wedding...FML. Although I would have rather of gone to vegas and attended the wedding in person, I still made the best of the situation while at the Wynder residence in southern alberta. Canada. I guess I cant complain too loud as I had the whole house to myself and I could watch any movie, play xbox kinect, sleep in complete peace and wear all her clothes. I even bonded with the animals by playing hiding go seek!
This is where I found Marci. Clever Girl.
Poor little guy, fell asleep while I was looking for him.
Hiding behind the ball might have worked for marci but not so much for abby.
I even got to ref a couple fights.Actually, my only complaint was that for the entire weekend her house was only 14 degrees and I had to bundle up in her clothes to remain alive. My brothers even stopped by after we were done work to bring me mcdonalds and for the last night I had a couple of good friends stay over with me to watch movies and keep me company. I cant wait till I have my own place...
and everyone else was wearing normal clothes that show up glowing in the blacklight. good job kaylee good job... At least it was dark and my suit was comfortable, too bad it looked like I ate the whole dessert table too. GAHHHH. Even though most times I make fun of YSA dances and play them off to be something nerdy or lame, I did have fun at this one and it gave me a break I needed from my homework. Three besties :)
Even though I looked ridiculous, I was still able to score a dance with a guy who had a hot australian accent. Any chances of us going on a date in the future was probably diminished when he saw me pigging out at the dessert table. Not because I cant make eating food look attractive but he probably felt ashamed of himself that I could probably out eat him. Or, there just wasnt any food left for him after I was done. I really cant talk about food anymore without me being tempted to go raid the fridge and cupboards, so we will have to talk about something else. Its actually almost time for bed only because I dont know what else to talk about not because its 1:31am and I can hardly keep my eyes open as it is. Plus, I am going to need all the rest I can get because I have a lot of work to do tomorrow. So I guess this is goodnight
