_____________________________________________________
I fixed the flat tire problem before work - only got to work hour late - amazing - i'll eat at my desk and not even really owe any time (deduct an hour lunch away from desk) by just having lunch at my desk today and still leaving at 5. 9am-5pm. excellent. the rim was bent - so they fixed the rim and added some rubber seal to it...should be excellent now. so the problem wasn't the tire and wasn't the valve - but the actual rim. I should have checked all rims....another time before i enter the academy i may just check that out so i have no new problems?!....
i hope to take care of all problems and possible future problems with my computer, car, etc. - before the academy. I need to also update my anti-virus program on my computer. I plan to do this in the fall - on a holiday we get i'll go to the store where i bought my computer and have them update it there. - close by and should be good. i already bought microsoft word earlier this year....so i have all the programs i need - just need to make sure the computer is good. i may even purchase a NEW COMPUTER specifically for NYPD. yes. but that's $1,000 down the drain, so, we shall see. It may be worth it - to have the best laptop / computer for the 6 months i'm in....actually...now that i write this....6 months is nothing....i do not need a new laptop for 6 months....unless mine starts to fail.
Progress as of today: 2 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
Home: kombucha 60

550 tops. and some candies.
almonds 100
lunch: crackers 150, marinated mushrooms with oil extra 200, tuna 50, caffeine drink: 450.
cookie around 2pm 100
i want the gym ... have to decide...leaning towards a positively YES! and more almonds 50
1250 before snack before gym....
(but my legs are sore, so i'm resting. i may change my mind bc i think i'm slightly restless. shoulder feels fine .....legs / arches of feet are sore that's it...) prob going to gym and changing once again at home (forgot clothes) and doing only upper, lightly instead of fully skipping...sounds like a good idea right now.
Snack before gym: prob fruit and granola bar...or something i will grab it at home in my house....and seltzer with stevia that i have been enjoying...100
1350 before gym, EXCELLENT thanks to a very healthy lunch!!!! going back to gym today instead of sunday, getting one extra workout in...
1850 today - very good.
6day avg: 2076 = very good.
i think the gym will be good for me...i love my arms and hate waiting to exercise them until sunday so instead of waiting...since the show activity is cancelled tonight, off to the gym i go! no more excuses and i think it's better to move than not to move at all today. i should also do abs...for sure....another reason to get my booty back in the gym tonight...i have rested 6 days. practically one week. and i'll rest again soon, so that's why i am going back now.
Dinner after gym: will be healthy as i have a ton of good food at home and maybe also some ice cream after dinner yes depending on the time! otherwise maybe just sweets tonight.?
__________________________________________________
I might just go back to the gym tonight...or rest, not sure.
NO TICKETS GIVEN OUT TONIGHT PER THAT THEATRE...will hvae to do this another time: I was given FREE past-dated tickets to a Broadway show and the deal is to see it on a Monday thru Thursday night. So, i'm calling this morning to make sure there are seats left and then the plan is to leave work half hour early in order to get to NYC with my friend back at home (i will drive home first). We're leaving here 5:30pm and the show starts at 7pm. It'll be just enough time as long as everything goes smoothly we may even have up to 30min to spare before the show starts, but not more than that!
We will not have time for dinner, just the show. So i told him to eat on his own. lol...there's simply no time! But we def want to use these free tickets! duh! The show is BANDSTAND. it should be good!
We were going to go the week of July 4th in the evening on that Thursday but because i am not at the gym this week and it's an easier week, I asked my friend if he wanted to go this Thursday instead and he's usually very excited to do things....so he said of course let's go this Thursday!
Luckily i am happy the show starts at 7pm today and not 8pm like yesterday....the earlier the better because i am going to work tomorrow! so it means we get home earlier. We're taking public transportation in and a TAXI nice and quick home!
5-day average: 2122 - def have some fat on my stomach from all the extra cals, but overall the clothes still fit, lol...who knows right now!
Slept for a long time as I was pretty tired and could have slept in after my alarm easily...but got up for work lol...

________________________________________________________

1400 before dinner....need more veg for this week...i might pick up thai food - a lot of it.
today i'm getting last of the supplies i need for this hamster cage. nope - store closes at 5 everyday, so i'll hvae to get the rest on the weekend....
work is really upsetting today from the start as i moved desks to another one (there are so many empty desks) but instead of my boss giving any desk to the new guy, he gave my old desk to the new guy like as a sign to me saying "get lost" like i'm so easily replaced but straight out does it based on his actions. it's hurtful. it's really, really disrespectful.
I hate my boss.
i didn't feel very good all day. in fact, i felt terrible and didn't even finsih an assignemnt before deciding to go home, at 5, and not work a single minute longer. I just couln't - my mind couldn't function another second in that hostile work environment.
dinner: potatoes with like some curry or something 250, lots of bok choy 150, and a bar on the healthy side with some protein 250. 650
2050.
If my boss is going to treat me like a piece of sh*t, i just cannot respect that. I don't have that within me & it's totally unacceptable.
i will remain at this job until December.

i didn't have to deal with him thankfully.

620.

2000 cals Sunday
2 day average: 2150 - decent.
i bought a coffee around 3pm on Sunday afternoon so sleeping Sunday night into monday was not good.) But at least I slept like a baby all weekend Friday night & Sat nights!
___________________________________
I saw another movie by myself today and it was another really good one - Wonder Woman! I'm glad a saw it and it had a great story line and well as themes.
After that, i had brought along everything i needed to go tanning at a local park - after stopping for an iced coffee and donut.
i then totally put on suntan lotion in the park bathroom, stripped to my bikini at the park and laid out, reading.
I don't prefer the beach anymore. I don't enjoy the drive out there. It's a hassle for a working person and tires me out for the remainder of the weekend. But the park is so close, i see myself going there often for a suntan, i can also lay out on my newly renovated terrace (but don't love the pigeons flying by haha...and the park is nice with everyone out there as well.) i even met a friend there today! Someone my age with her sister.
If i'm gonna try for the academy this summer, the beach is wayyyy too much hassel (over an hour drive each way) and the park is only 10 min....so this is why i prefer the park. also, it doesn't take a whole day with the beach...finding parking, walking thru sand....park is better this summer.
Progress as of today: 2 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
2300 saturday.
150 cal from last night's indulgence, yeah, it was a slight emotinal binge i'll admit. because after that, i did fall asleep which is really what i needed all along. but all is good.
I was planning to go to beach with parents but really i had wanted quiet time this weekend and not waking up early and spending it till very late with them - so i pulled out of that. I would have had to leave my apt now at 9am to go to them and i am just settling down to waking up now and having breakfast. So bailing was good - it's more important i get to sleep in and relax than rush to get ready for beach - it would have also meant picking up food last night after work and i had stayed late at work. So....i did what i had to do and told my parents i'd see them next week for Father's Day. Beach was only because i had meant to go to them to pick up a hamster cage but i have decided on a different cage now.
150 cal from last night.
9am: kombucha Rose flavor so good! 50 and honey 50
10:30 i made an awesomely, very rich, chocolate oatmeal dish: oatmeal 150, almond milk 20, cocoa powder 100 (lots of it!), steiva, dried goldenberries 100, peanut butter 200, cinnamon: 550
cookie before jog 120
920 after cookie before jog
2pm - 3pm late lunch after jog: cookie 250, ice cream 170, and then healthy sauteed veg when i got home lol yes weird 200: 650 tops
1550 (goal for today is for approx 2050 cal). tomorrow is now a rest day, no gym, taking the day off and also taking off the gym until thursday - hopefully should will heal up by then bc i have a pulled muscle).
_____________________________________________________
also tomorrow probably just going to Home Depot to buy a huge plastic bin for my hamster coming later this month (as soon as i have all the materials for the cage - ordered some cute things online!)
Progress as of today: 2 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
Good luck with the hamster.
I pulled a muscle in my shoulder last night accidentally moved too fast :/ .... so, i will be doing less gym this coming week or probaby skipping it & taking a break - to let my body have some rest, YES.
6:30am Home: honey & kombucha 100
8am Breakfast at work: wrap 100, pb 200, sf jelly small amount, cinnamon, coffee 50 = 350. oh and a smallish banana 120.
11am: Snack: egg & oatmeal cookie 200? i may skip the snack, again, trying....and just eat an early lunch & snack in PM of a cookie is what i'd like to do! egg
Lunch: Leftovers from last night's chinese yum and some soy meats 250. the leftover chinese is Chop Suey - this place cooks it EXTRA well! lots of veg, light sauce, very tasty like 400 tops for chop suey i hope! it was a lot of food.
100 cal chocolate on way home :-) 1 really tasty white chocolate truffle
Microwave meal for dinner. microwave meal was 450, lots of greens with it 200, and desert of strawberries 50. 700
2200 total.
2092 7-day = at least i'm in the 2000's and i think it should be my goal to average in the 2000's for now.
(and 150 cal more of ice cream after dinner, calories will be tacked onto tomorrow's total)
____________________________________________
I hope my shoulder improves so i can do keep lifting weights....most probably taking sunday off completely from gym - and trying to jog tomorrow bc sunday will be too hot for it (95) and i prefer outdoor exercise to the treadmill right now.

Thankful i guess for a quiet day at work - just ordered everything my Hamster will need. Her name will be GG...short for Gym Girlie!
She's going to be a female bc they are easier to care for...and are less fussy about what time you play with them (hamsters are nocturnal). I spend around $100 on the accessories and stuff. I just need a water bottle.

I wouldn't consider it "down the drain" consider it an investment in your future!
i'll just make sure everything is clean and working great with antivirus...since it's only a 6 month academy...i'll try to get thru without any major purchases (electronics, cars, etc.) ...
i'll make sure to get my laptop looked at later in the fall is my plan. i don't want to do anything else this summer...
you have a good point at the phrasing...to be more positive :)
