meh. my energy's been really scattered lately. from being gone for a week, then being sick, then going straight to being really busy this week, i'm just off. also, my room's a mess, which always infects the rest of my life, making me less focused and lazier. in college i used to feel like this when i was behind in classwork. i'm seeing another play tonight, but tomorrow night is all mine - gym and neatening and just relaxing with myself.
i've also realized (and i don't think this is me making excuses, exactly) that although i slip here and there, i'm still eating much better than i was six months ago, much better than i have most of my life. i still slip into old habits (especially the nighttime thing) but i'm working to get out of that, and until i'm 'perfect' i'm still much better. so.
1/3 c rice pudding (rice, soy milk, sugar)
1 1/2 c crispix 1/2 c soy milk
banana 2 mini bagels 1 t reduced-fat pb 1 c soy milk
sesame bagel 8oz fake chicken salad (soooo good - i went into whole foods in search of fake tuna salad, craving it from all kate's been talking about the real stuff. i found this, though, and it rocked my world. mostly tofu, egg whites, and some veggies. new addiction.)
then, on my way home at 11:30, i had to stop and get cat food. and i was tired. and cranky that my roommate hadn't gotten it, since he was home much earlier. so i bought a kit kat bar. i threw away half of it, as that makes it a reasonable snack. but then i got home and ate two more pieces of chocolate.
1760. i walked to work in the morning, knowing my gym schedule for the week has been shot to hell. that was 30 min, and there was lots more walking later.
i've seen worse. i'm back to eating more like my normal, not-sick self today - oatmeal, some veggies, more protein. gradually, of course. but it's easier to feel full on this stuff, and it just makes me feel better. the last couple of days i've been hungry every hour and a half or two hours, and i'd like to last a little longer between grazings.
