So I have class in an hour... and instead of reading the like 100 pages I had for homework and haven't even looked at, I'm writing here.
I went to the gym this morning! YAY! I wanted to go to an Abs class at 9:45 but that didn't materialize due to not being able to get to sleep before 4am thinking about what is wrong with me. I was Facebook dissed... majorly. It was probably because of all those fattie pics that are up on there. It just sucked... cause I was on a high of earning back some ounce of self esteem... only to have it shot down... by fucking Facebook. Agh.
But anyway... got to the gym at about 11:15. Did 35 minutes on the weight loss setting. Then worked my inner and outter thighs and my chest (I want those puppies up to my neck... agh... Puppies was my nickname in high school... cause of my humungous puppies). I did 3 sets of 20 reps on each. After that I went back on the treadmill and ran fast for 5 minutes. I could not believe I ran. Five minutes sounds like nothing but for a fattie smoker with the legs as long as normal people's calf it was quite the feat. I was surprised that I didn't feel like dying after the whole work out. I was there like almost 1.5 hours. I could have stayed longer... but the gym is right next to Dunkin Donuts (why do they do that... when I was doing Weight Watchers it was next to a Red Lobster and a Wendy's) and I had planned to reward myself with a giant iced coffee (skim milk and sugar... regular sugar is better than the artificial sweetners which I have totally cut out of my diet... I'd rather take on the calories and not the chemicals). The reward turned into an iced coffee and a bagel. OMG... do they put all the calories on food in Atlanta? It is awful (and wonderful). You're constantly aware of every single thing you put into your mouth that you buy out. The bagel (multigrain... helps me poop... which is always a problem for me) was 380 +the low fat cream cheese and the coffee with the skim milk and sugar was about 60 calories. I'm planning to have some kind of fruit before class and a salad afterwards. Please don't let the cafeteria close before I get out of class. Salads don't exist in Harlem.
So succinct objective writing is not my forte as has become evident from this blog and all of my graduate classes. I'm wordy... deal with it. Okay... going to "read."
7:47pm: Just got back from class before which I ate a low fat yogurt and a banana. Decided I didn't want to pay anything for dinner... so came back and made myself three Trader Joe chicken strips (220 calories for three!) and Trader Joe organic brown rice (like 200 calories). Agh and ketchup. I need to get over my ketchup addiction.
I'm going to a friend's to watch a movie tonight. I'm going to try my best not to eat anything. I swear to God if I don't read a blog post from you when I get back.....
Okay... peace out,
Kate
P.S. Oh yea... I wanted to add that in class tonight my professor said, "I challenge you all to the yogurt challenge of Harlem." The challenge is to see how long you can search for yogurt in a store here. The answer is... you probably can't. So what I said about salads not existing in Harlem is true. The distinction between the diets of the rich and poor and the availability of food to each group is interesting. Okay that's all.
P.P.S. I just got back from my friend's house... ate a little tiny bit of popcorn and had a green tea. Now I'm eating three more of the chicken strips. So another 225ish calories. These are so great! I'm feeling bad about it just so you know.
