Saturday: today i have a few things planned...teaching a lesson and then rehearsing with a friend. i promised myself to do yoga later this evening. I will do it no matter what! calories should be able to be kept to around 1200. I will be busy and i was able to sleep in till around 8am, which is later for me! haha. i still plan on going to bed around 10 or so. this day is looking good so far!
Friday: 1205 cal.
yoga, 60 min exercise
today ended up turning out alright. teaching could have been a little better...i wasn't happy about how the day went. nothing went terribly, but i hadn't taught lessons to the friday groups in over a month because of vacation and trips so the kids had forgotten A LOT! I wish i had planned a bit more for that!
then, i did do yoga, which made me feel extra good!
i went to meet a friend for starbucks and we chatted it up... we discussed our difficulties in finding jobs that we're satisfied with. we're both 24 yrs old and a little depressed about our work/living situations.
next, i suggested we go to the supermarket to pick up a few things! LOL! we both love going there! I actually have a few friends that love to go to the supermarket. weird, huh? but, only when its less crowded...that's the best time. so, we browsed down all the isles! definitely not the typical Friday night hangout!
it's been a bad week.
i had work, then an interview, then rehearsal till 10:15 at night. I'm as frustrated as can be.
WAYYY too many ups and downs.
yesterday's calories: 1000.
yesterday's exercise: half hour.
today's calories: a MAJOR binge ocurred this afternoon. total calories today are 2500. the binge was totally because of the job interview. oh just so you know, i had about 650 calories up until this afternoon. so, the binge was like 1900 or so!...in one sitting!
today's exercise: nothing.
goodnight.
Hoping that Friday is a better day for you...I really hope you find some time to do something you enjoy this weekend, you deserve it.
Take care...
Wednesday edit: i'm feeling horrible...i should remember this and remember not to binge next time!
no exercise.
ok, my 19 day calorie average is currently 2044. not so hot. i just had a large binge, for dinner no less! plus, i've opted not to exercise. this is a perfect time to get work done...i am satiated to the point of no return...like i can just sit and do my work and forget about most things. If you had a sugar load like i just had, you'd understand! it involved lots of leftover candy, cookies, powerbars, chocolate, lays chips, and other carb/sugar rich things in my house. (that i don't buy, but eat; and get in trouble for!)
well, the bloated feeling is back!
MAJOR BINGE!
today should have been an easy low cal day! even 1500 is a high number compared to what i was capable of!
total cal: 3640. no exercise.
dinner calories were 2650, by the way.
blah blah.
3640 for the day! big mistake, huh!?
And wantabfit has a very good point, wednesday is a new day! All you have to do is make it better (how much better is up to you) than today. And you will be moving in the right direction again! Easy as pie! wait, no... easy as broccoli! yeah, broccoli, that's better. :-)
Hang in there you can do it!

Take care and I hope that Thursday is a wonderful day for you!
ah, one more thing...i felt really good today in my clothes as it was a Monday, and usually I binge on the weekend. However, this weekend was better, and I felt more "myself." not the stuffed person I usually feel like...and it felt really good to feel like myself and not some pillow person!
calories: 1200.
exercise: 20 min.
goodnight all!
busy week ahead!
Take care!!!!!!!
exercise: 60 minutes of yoga. no walking, didn't feel like it.
haha. somehow, calories are exactly what my goal was: 1790. complete with seriously terrible intakes of a massive amount of splenda, equal, and articifial sugars. blah. i'm not concerned about that at the moment! I even had a whole package of the sugar free jello...you know, the 6 little cups, each one being 10 calories. gosh!
so, today i ended up waking up quite early...around 7:30am. i decided to go to the 8:15am yoga class and have a carb/protein drink they sell during the class instead of breakfast. that went well. i definitely had a lot to eat when i got home. Most was fairly healthy. total calories consumed until noon are 1390. I'm making a goal of 1790 total for the day.
another update later!
calories = 1655. i was shooting for 1700 or so. that means i did well! with a large breakfast of 700 calories, i'm happy about my intake today. Tomorrow is yoga and i really need to get some work done, too!
today has been a nice day! i went for a walk on the boardwalk for about an hour and 20 min! so, exercise = 80 min.
edit: saturday morning. i promise this day will NOT be a total loss. breakfast was 700 calories, all healthy foods. just big. however, i plan on a 1700 day. i can do it! easy!
_____________________________________
today's gonna be good calorie-wise!...another update later!
exercise: 25 min.
calories: 1200! yay. I was assuming I would have around 1700 today. However, most of the day was very low in terms of stress level; and that helped keep calories low. I only worked a half day...and that gave me time to get very important things done! I went to the music store to pick up pieces for my students, registered for my LAST grad class for my degree, practiced some horn, chilled out!, took a short 10 min nap, went food shopping since i didn't want to exercise before rehearsal, and had ample time to eat! all went well!
this weekend should honestly be just as smooth. I just need to learn to breathe, take it easy! Life wasn't meant to give people ulcers!
i meant for a 1200-1300 day and went slightly over. oh well, can't change it! its far better than my 3000 calorie days two weeks ago, though!
exercise: nada.
calories: 1490.
1220 cal.
30 only- min exercise!
have a goodnight, better updates in a few days to come!
of everyone currently using DD, i think my journal has the most "up and downs" lately. whether it's my mood or calories or whatnot, every day is the complete opposite of the next!
so, no exercise...i decided on that early on this morning.
calories today: 1200.
thanks for all of your feedback, it really does help!
tomorrow is my first day back to work after vacation..i'm lucky some people went back today! i just had a college class, but gladly not work on top of that!
have a good day everyone!
Even so, I hope you start moving into more ups than downs.
