i'm guessing around 2200 cals today. i'm happy with that.
exercise: i walked at least 7 miles today! and then i biked for at least 20 minutes later on! such a GREAT day. i hadn't done that walk in awhile and I'm proud of myself for sticking with it and also doing some extra that is not ordinarily part of the trail. :) so happy. i hope you all had nice weather and enjoyed it too!
breakfast: mix of oatmeal 150, finished some old protein powder (i have lots of it laying around) 80, egg whites 60, and i added a banana bc i love them and they were in my house 100. total: 390. :)
snack: almonds 160, some tasty canned fruit in my house that i bought at least a year ago lol. trying to eat up everything before i buy more. total 280 good.
lunch: maybe some diet drink and a fiber one bar... 150
snack: diet drink....and nature's valley granola bars 180....later on a drink....100
total so far before dinner: 1100. fine.
.... maybe i can order sushi/seafood for dinner instead of the prepared dish they do for you...with all that butter. but, maybe i should just go and enjoy...yes, i don't plan on doing anything drastically different for dinner than everyone else! no need. i am trying to learn to live my life as relaxed as i can...and that includes not stressing over orderring dinner...
dinner: is out tonight for my friend's bday....benihana type of place (japanese bbq where they cook it up right in front of you)....lots of food. but i'm looking foward to it.

IGNORANCE is NOT bliss! I am saddened by all the hate in the world and people who think they are better than everyone else. We are all equal and let us live together in peace and harmony.
breakfast was great: oatmeal/egg mix and yogurt spread on top after: 350
snack: yellow raisins/almonds: 290.
lunch/snack: fiber one bar: 150
snack: protein "builder's" bar all natural: 270 (lots of diet drinks today)
total so far: 1060. today will be much lower than what i've been having per day this week. that's a good thing....
dinner: i think a dunkin donuts egg white sandwich, some vegetable drink powder things... (they're called red lightning if your're interested. it's the only one i like of the "lightning/nature's plus" powders that i've tried. very healthy at about 22 calories per package. good source of veg/fruit vitamins...
exercise yesterday was fantastic. today, i will go to the park as well. right now i'm just leaving some posts to you guys, ironing my white scrubs for school next week, did some reading....and just enjoying these next 3 days before school starts again. :) It was a good break.
The weirdness: so that guy, who texted to say he would call did NOT. so i'm done with him. He had 2 chances to get in touch. that is kinda rude so i'm past it. which is ok, bc i'm not very into dating right now since i'm more focussed on school...and now fitness. :) and getting a job....
BUT, the florida guy texted me again. (i ignored his texts earlier this week bc i've been kinda upset with him). but i didn't text him back much and he decided to actually CALL me. we spoke for around 45 minutes. and it was pretty late, maybe around 10 when he called. ehhh, not sure what to think of his call. I won't be calling/texting him though. I have learned to control myself....so that i will NOT end up being upset at my own actions with him. If he wants to contact me, he can. but i'm not going around chasing him.
THANKS FOR ALL THE DATING ADVICE! :)

woke up a little earlier compared to the last few days. that's ok. it was still later than when i'm in school! plans today include lots of exercise. and also filling out a workbook for school that needs to be done. also, i know i'll be having an anatomy test the friday i get back to school. i think a may study a VERY LITTLE bit, but every day, so that the info really sticks and i do well on the test without being overwhelmed with studying when i get back... i only plan on doing work during the morning. then, the day is mine!

dinner:
its rainy, but that will not get me down. how can you be down on vacation??? i'm loving it. weird, but the guy never called last night. i had the same situation with another guy last week. but, i had a really long online convo with this guy so i'm not sure why he would say he would call but then didn't. whatever, i'm not mad at all or concerned. i'm not looking to go crazy dating right now. AT ALL. i'm in school and feel that until i graduate, in a bit over a year, i just go with the flow. dating is not a priority at all.

i met this guy on a dating website last night. had a long chat online with him. he said he'd call tonight and we can set up a date. lives in the city but we'd meet on Long Island. i will be nervous later for when he calls. haha.

Once the body starts getting a steady amount of TSH and all the chemicals level out as a result, I think it will be much easier to stop reaching for food to overfuel my body. You see with a damaged thyroid I don't really have a metabolism. So I am tired a lot, but I am also looking for a constant stream of energy to help all my systems, while my body HAS food it isn't being used properly so only a quarter of what I eat is actually used to fuel me, the rest just sits there and can't be taken back up and used. So I'm always looking for a fuel source to keep my energy level going, to make me feel good.
I do believe that once all the chemicals are back in place, things will be much easier. But I still have to get the right attitude in place. =)
i had dessert yesterday, too, so calories were a bit higher. i'd say around 3,000 approx.
today is a wedding. woke up and had lots of cream cheese and whitefish salad on a sandwhich of 2 pieces of wheat toast.
for the wedding, i'm wearing all black but i realized the wedding takes place at noon...it's less formal i guess kinda at that time, no? not sure. anyway, i was going to wear heals, but if i do, i'll be in pain for the next week (my VACATION week) and that won't be good at all. so, i'm wearing flats. ha.
honestly, there have been plenty of times recently where i'd rather not be alive. that's the thought in my head, anyway. thankfully, i'm too afraid to do anything to actually harm myself so for now i can say i will remain alive but depressed. i am at a low right now in my life. a continued low for the past 2 years. i am struggling deeply to get out of it. i do not want to be at the wedding today. i am sad for what i have become.

First, seek out a counselor but let that counselor know you've not had a complete physical for a couple of years, then get a check up to rule out anything medical (Including thyroid disease-get the number!) and then continue with your counseling. The doctor can prescribe something that will help you feel better right away as well as something that will take time but evenutally help. There is NOTHING WRONG with asking for help and there is no shame in admitting to a professional that you need a particular kind of help. They deal with all kinds of issues each and every day. And you don't have to tell your family spit about any of it.
The first step of being independant is taking care of yourself. And knowing when you have to get outside help. Stop trying to carry all of this yourself! You may have something medically wrong that you didn't even know about! And your weight gain, binging, etc. might be a symptom of a medical condition. You are only going to drive yourself crazy if you keep going in circles waiting for that magic moment when you step out of this cycle and everything is well again. Sometimes we need help and at the risk of pissing some people off, I am going to tell you once again...YOU NEED HELP.
Get help. If you want me to do some research on clinics in your area that are low cost or doctors or whatever that will help for free, TELL ME because I am very good at being an advocate. I've done it many, many times for my employees. Anything from counseling to eye glasses. But you have to actually admit that you have a problem, and that will honestly give you the strength to get help.
