Good morning, buddies!
Last night, I was kind of dreading the gym...as of late, there's a group of über skinny and fit girls who come around the same time Bestie and I do. On one hand, look at what I could look like! The potential "after" photo is right there! But... they are perhaps the loudest people I have ever met. Rather than come together and work out quietly, they jabber on as loudly as they can, drop weights regularly, and leave their keys in my (already claimed) cubby (even though my jacket and book were obviously there?? I don't understand why you would do that, but that's just me...). I certainly don't want to be rude to them in person, and they have every right to be there, same as me. Don't worry, I'm not going to go off on them! It just makes the gym a bit less pleasant for both me and Bestie-- neither of us are skinny, and we both prefer an empty gym to work out in. Bestie in particular has a lot of self esteem issues, and will sometimes leave early to avoid this group.
But today, they weren't there! In fact, no one was. It was just me, my music, and the machines-- the way I like it lol. Gym-wise, I was able to get in plenty of cardio on the elliptical and recumbent bike, and even did a bit of weight training. Michelle Obama-style arms, here I come!
Today, I'm trying IF again, eating only between 1 pm and 9pm. While I know that I'm choosing a longer period to eat than is probably best, my schedule can be a bit crazy. Often I'm not able to sit down and eat dinner until 8:30pm-- with homework, clubs, school...life gets a bit crazy. Still, I'm making the effort because it seems worthwhile-- I know that JockoT has had big success with IF.
The real challenge will be later. I'm making some chocolate chips for my fellow French House residents today as a "Welcome" gift. It's going to be hard to keep myself from indulging, I already know. So, to cope, I'll probably be on the app, reading success stories! That, and looking at the graph of my weight-loss; the last thing I want to do is undo all this progress!
I learned last night that I absolutely cannot have sweets in my room. When I went to check out at the Food Lion (with some ground flax seed and other health foods), an end-cap caught my eye. Cadbury cream eggs! I didn't think those came around until much later in the year, but I guess everything is being pushed up nowadays. After much internal negotiation, and carefully checking how many calories I had left for the day, I decided to get one. Well, guess what I couldn't stop thinking about at 11 pm as I tried to sleep? Yep, that darn egg. It went down the hatch (and didn't put me over on calories, but did make me crave more chocolate!). While it was really good, and isn't the worst thing for me in moderation, it really sent home that I need to keep all kinds of junk out of my room. If it's there, I'll want it!
On the positive side of willpower, when I went to the store with Bestie, we agreed to skip the chip aisle and candy aisle altogether. A small win is still a win! Just like a small loss is still a loss.
Can't believe the angle of my graph at the minute, to be honest. It seems like an illusion-- like it must belong to someone else on here. But the jeans don't lie!
Happy hump day,
--That Soon To Be Skinny Bitch
