binge followed by more bingeing: bread with pb and cream cheese and caramel topping. 600!!
total cal: 3600.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
wanted to binge a bit after dinner and gave in. following my 450 cal dessert, i had 1/2 cup raisinettes (360) and two granola bars (280)
total cal: 2960. i'll round that to 3,000.
sheesh. everything tastes so good.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
lots of eating today. in a good way buy i do actually feel a little bloated. all good.
2 mi during work...and i would like to go on another short walk. like a half hour. i have to call this guy back from online dating who left me a message last night...i'm really not in the mood to talk to any guy right now but i have to. :( i'll tell him i have to go but didn't want to not call back.
so far, calories are 1870 but my mind is wandering and wants dessert. lol. dinner was a satisfying 570 calories. so we'll see.
gave in to dessert. rich ice cream with some jelly on top.
total cal might be as high as 2320. ok.

1850 calories today. right now, i cannot be so concerned with calorie restriction and diet as much as just eating within my calories. I will be starting a whole new education program in two weeks which is not much time. It is NOT time for a crazy diet plan. Exercise, that's fine. But, it's NOT the time to try to lose as much as I can or something before the program starts. It's only important for me to be myself and work to achieve my goals as much as I can without going overboard.
This was actually a good weekend because I didn't binge eat. More or less, I had a decent amount of calories both days as well as Friday. I am proud of myself for making good decisions on these days.
Still, I get too hungry in the mornings/afternoon and I'm going to have to think about the foods I will be eating and when during this program. I need to have ENERGY. I need to do my best. This is a big chance for me and for the rest of my life! I am excited and anxious for it to begin! :)
Exercise: 40 min bike, hot yoga :), 30 min stroll, 20 min elliptical, some weights and abs. yes, a complete physical day. wouldn't change a thing.

Suggestions for keeping hunger away: Protein! And fiber! And did I mention Protein? :-)
sun entry: breakfast 300 cal mostly carbs.
snack: one black apricot (saw them for the 1st time in a fruit/veg store, they look like slightly fuzzy dark purple plums and taste good!) and one plum. and 2 tbsp pb on a cracker: 295
snack: veggie/fruit powder in water: 35
BIG, tasty lunch: jeno's microwave pizza which i used like a flatbread inside of which i put lettuce and some deli turkey. 570 and some mints. 590
snack: lots of pineapple cc and bran crackers: 300...total 1520. I'm thinking around 1900-2000 calories today.
did a bike ride and yoga so far. i'd like to do some elliptical/weights later. but first, i must buy white pants!!! yuck! and lots of them, like at least 5 pairs for school...
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
sat entry:
ate a little unhealthy today. was at grandma's and had 7 cookies (four big three small.) so, that added about 530 extra cal. they are good though...and free. so, maybe if i just have a little less it'll be ok.
ordered food with my sister for dinner. then, had two plums and some mints after.
i'm hoping calories are around 2200 for today...and not more. right now, i'm making the most of exercise because i realize i shouldn't be eating 1200 cal (not that i ever do) or anything very low since i usually do get in some exercise each day. all in all, 2200 cal would be ok with me for today.
that's about it for now! tomorrow, i have plans to do yoga/bike ride in the morning. then, unfortunately, i need to go shopping to find white pants for the program i'm entering. i want to buy them tomorrow.

RE: Dating (again) - You are so smart to have standards (that may sound corny and old-fashioned, square but I mean it). There are always men who are self-made "clods", but I think women have "sold out" to lower standards and that's why men are of a lesser quality. Women need to give men the chance to rise to bar and prove themselves. Everyone benefits - the men have higher self-esteem because they know they have someone of quality and vice-versa - Gee I sound really un-cool, but I really believe this - even if I didn't say it very well.
thanks everyone for the thoughtful dating advice on my last entry!
things are much better than yesterday. was a bit tired during the morning but it wore off. now, time for a late session at the gym. looking foward to it, actually.
calories so far: 1470. but i may have another meal or so. or at least another snack. we'll see. not many veggies...but tons of tomatoes. 5 plum tomatoes to be exact.
alright, going out to the gym.
total calories approx. 1800. good day for me.
2 mi during work walk, elliptical 20 min, 10 min walk, weights/little bit of abs.

Have a good evening!
around 1850 today.
i went on a crappy date. i met him in the city at 10:30pm. basically, the gist of the date, is that he wanted to know if i would sleep with him early on in the relationship. well, i would never. that's me. can't change that so much. so, the date ended pretty soon after. i was home by 1am...left the city at 12. what crap.
i should not have gotten my nails done...that was a waste of money...although they do look good.
what have i learned??? weeknight dates suck. those guys are players. lol, a generalization but it makes sense.
exercise: 2 mi during work and some walking in city...but not much.

Have a good Friday!
i'm slowly but surely getting more sleep and feeling better at work :)
less bingey but definitely still hungry in the morning before lunch.
tried the new DD egg white flatbread - it's GREAT! :)
good eating so far. i'll probably aim for around 1750-1800 today. :)
exercise: 2 mi during work. probably will walk later or bike or go to the gym. it'll probably be the gym bc i want to use weights more! :) and abs.
calories: 1850.
Progress as of today: 2.5 lbs lost so far, only 7.5 lbs to go!
on a ten point scale, today would be a stress level 6 i guess. not too bad.
calories: too high. VERY hungry, bingey...and everything else. but, in general, i don't think i had too many carbs today.
calories: around 1850.
exercise: 2 mi during work, 2.5 approx. after work.
tired.
i fixed a problem i had with the bank today and that makes me very happy. i also know that my new insurance for the coming school year has begun. all good things.

i do not believe the calorie counts on the new Dunkin Donuts flatbread sandwiches. there's NO WAY that the cheddar turkey bacon flatbread has only 360 calories. sorry. it's HUGE, too.
total calories: 1450 approx. good!
exercise: 1 mi during work instead of 2! :( bike ride. some tennis if my partner....

Have a good evening!
evening edit: tomorrow will be better. plus, i have a new date on Friday night. and yes, i'd rather not be dating per se, but rather in a relationship. but i guess i have to do the work first??? i have never went out with this guy before and i hope it works out this time...
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

sat evening entry:
better eating in the second half the day aka dinner. very healthy although huge portions at a family bbq. many veggies. so, i can realistically say i probably didn't eat over 2200 today. exercise includes minimal weights (but that's a start!), short bike ride, yoga, 20 min elliptical and 1.5 mi walk. interesting mix, huh!? goodnight. better days to come.
going to drive my uncle to the airport in the morning. then YOGA. i'm actually going to go straight there i think from the airport. it'll be perfect timing!

afternoon entry:
ehhh, i'm writing as i eat a tad too much sugar.
breakfast: cereal/fruit/milk: 210
snack: plum/few cherries: 60
very sugary lunch: bran cereal,2 cups almond milk, 1/4 cup sf jelly, nasty soft tofu, cinnamon, FOUR granola bars boy are they GOOD, 1/2 cup dark chocolate raisinetts: 950 yuckie calories.
total: around 1220 now. and big bbq for dinner tonight. i'll aim for 2200 calories today.
bike to and from yoga and 6 mi walk...considering i had enough sugar to feed a starving country. i may try to just have protein/veggies at dinner bc i do feel bad for my body right now!

I know.. it's hard to stop at times. I have had ice cream in my fridge for a few weeks and not opened it. that's a first for me and i am so proud. but if i stay another few weeks without getting laid, the ice cream gets it. HAHAHAHAHAHA xoxo
