Kate,
Do you ever accidently write your name when you meant to write mine? Yeah, me too.
Anyway, not very proud of myself. Tired. Short blog day.
What I ate:
Breakfast:
- Big bowl of mulitgrain cheerios
Lunch:
- Can of light progresso soup. It tasted like nothing.
- Small bag of baked ruffles.
- Fiber one bar
Dinner:
- Lean pocket
- Too many pita chips
- Grapes
- Pack of mini oreos
- 2 friggin pieces of dove chocolates
- Some cashews
Whatever. Weekends are really shitty for eating well. I froze some yogurt, so I'm going to try that tomorrow to get my sweet fix. Is there a way to desensitize a sweet tooth? Ugh. And yeah, I didn't post what I ate last night for dinner.. It was bad. Homemade mac & cheese (if you thought the kraft kind was bad for you..), a piece of white french bread, bag of baked ruffles.. all carbs. Bad carbs. But I made milkshakes with the kids I babysat last night and I only had a little sip. That was haaaard. The spell check is on on the computer I'm using and it's so annoying. I'm in my aunt's big house alone and it's a little scary. And not just because of her full pantry..
Today I completed my four days of working out (I also worked out on Fri for 20 mins) . I did 60 mins on the treadmill. Burned 500 calories and 3.5 miles. The girl beside me got off at 35 mins and burned 159 cal. I remembered her numbers and so I could take note of how many I burned at 35 mins.. It was 320 cal! That's like 160 cal difference. That was pretty cool.
Yesterday was a tough gym day. I did 40 mins on the treadmill, 4 mins running, and then decided to switch it up (I forgot my headphones so no tv on the treadmill. SO boring.) I got on the stairclimber thingy. Wow, big mistake. I did it on level 6 (6 of 20 levels, so not very difficult, right?) for only 5 mins. It was so bad. I got off after the 5 mins and felt like I was going to pass out. And when sat down, I could feel my pulse in every part of my body, like my heart was going to explode. I even felt it in my face. And the worst part? It said I only burned 50 calories. 17 floors and 50 calories? I don't think so. Not for that much sweat. Ok, enough about the devil's exercise equipment.
Goals for this week:
- 200 crunches everyday. I'm sick of seeing what I'm going to look like when I'm 6 mos pregnant.
- Get the sweets under control. But my bday is on Thurs, so this day is a free day, damnit.
- Workout (at least) 4 days, like usual.
- Add more veggies in my meals.
- And stop eating late. I'm gonna say no eating after 9 also. I usually workout late, so this might be hard. I just need to stop my endless snacking sessions after dinner.
Well, so much for the small post. I'm not going to be to super down on myself for my bad weekend, bc at least I'm working out and becoming more aware of what I'm eating (and what I shouldn't be eating.)
Here's to us being too skinny,
Katie

I was going to get those Progresso light soups... 0 points on weight watchers! I heart weight watchers. But I thought they would taste like nothing... and now I know they do.
ReplyDeleteDon't be hard on yourself. Like you said to me last week... you are GOING to the gym and you are trying. You could be eating all this shit and more of it and worse shit and just sitting on your ass. At least now we feel guilty when we're bad and are super aware of it and aware of what we need to do to better it. We could be doing nothing!
And wtf 500 calories in the gym is awesome! That's like almost half a days worth of food. So really... don't feel bad. You're doing great.
And I look 7 months pregnant... when people give me their seat on the subway I take it as not a chivalrous act but an insult saying that I look with child.
