______________________________________________________
Woke up early - doing my laundry which will be done before 11 and already showered. also vacummed!
Lots of errands...
1. my manicure is screwed up so i have to drive back there today...which is slightly annoying bc it's quite far - over half hour each way...my friend chose the place..i'll never go back! too much annoyannce it things need to be touched up...! but i am happy i went with her friday night bc we hadn't even had lunch at work together in a long time and she's the one i'm going to vegas with...we discussed the trip a little bit while we were there :)
2. After fixing nails, i'll jog today...maybe another short outing - 1.5mi instead of 2mi, yes probably!
3. Later i'll cook my sirloin beef burgers before the meat goes bad.
4. Happy Sunday and today is also my dad's 65th Birthday! yay! Seeing my dad for birthday dinner tonight back where he lives like 40 min away (close) on Long Island. My sister and mom of course will celebrate too...which reminds me...i need a card for him as well as a gift for him & my sister! ahhhh! oops...Actually, switch that...i'll buy both my sister and dad something from Vegas :) so i'll get them cards now but tell them i'll find something in Vegas for them! (probably T-shirts haha).
Busy day....fixing the nails takes out a chunk of time that i would have prefered to use to relax. so i'll have to find some extra relaxing time tomorrow!

Yesterday i went to a food festival with GREAT food of all ethnicities back at the school i went to for college...it was an event for alumni only. Great food and drinks, $30 entrance fee and wine / drinks INCLUDED. cool. i wish we went earlier - there was also a carnival i saw we missed. There was also some fireworks! Talk about a university with $$$$$$$$ to spend! It's Hofstra University, currently the tuition is $60,000 per year..Hofstra is on Long Island and they hold one of the Presidential Debates there every 4 years...so you might recognize the school from those presidential tv debates. The school looks even better from the time i went there. i was really impressed. It's a private school, very different for instance from Queens College right here by me which is a City University, public, not the same in terms of funding and monetary resources to keep up the school and grounds.
....when i went back in 2000-2004 it was $25,000 and i got a little money, not much, but like $3k and also my grandparents had money and i do not owe loans bc of my grandparents. Lucky. But even though i got the 3k, i lived in a dorm and for 3 years each year it was prob around 3k! The 4th year i actually applied to be a resident adviser and was in charge of a floor, my floor, in the dorm, so i lived there for free my last year! Finally, a good decision!

but i'd be even more stressed to not eat, so i'm rolling with it...hopefully it'll die down after the Vegas trip. i have a lot of little odds and ends going on, nothing serious, just lil errands and stuff that keeps throwing my schedule off a hair.
but i'm not binging - so this is GOOD.
also, i agree with all your commments.
and finally, i've just about have had my fix with all the chocolate / bars i was eating at work and pretty much back to the lower sugar diet. - not snacking on candy / chocolate.
Or maybe I just had an aversion to B foods - but I am being serious.

10:30am: craving protein, had peanuts too. 100
...and still prob an early lunch as my eating has been full of carbs this weekend and still having a very large appetite lol....no problem as everything is mostly still very moderate!
Early 12pm Lunch as lately i find myself very hungry due to all the recent travels and other things or maybe my metabolism is faster now - which it is: leftovers from last night's dinner of chop suey which is pretty healthy with shrimp not even much shrimp left and i had very little of the sauce..not more than 250 cals, plus a small package of cheeze-its (been craving the salty snacks...they were tasty). 450 cal. extra 50 in candies, lower sugar, throughout day...500
Snack: small plum 50.
Snack before jog: chocolate bar 150 special k bar 100 since i have one opened already from last week at work lol...and it was tasty.

After driving back to my town from my parents, before i stopped at my home I decided to do two errands since the stores were right next to one another: smallest grocery shopping and also a trip to the pharmacy for some household stuff. i felt good to go in the store and just get while i'll need for awhile since i had the time.
Got home around still early at 10am-10:30am in the morning. brought the hamster and packages up to my apt in like 3 trips lol. parked my car. come home to relax and clean up some stuff in my apt. finally heading to gym around 2;30pm i'll be there. Everything is decently clean - didn't vaccuum tho. that's the only thing missing...it's ok!

2nd - chicken soup without the chicken lol...broth 50-100?, veggies 100?, lots of noodles 300-400? total here: 600.
3rd: chicken 250? from the soup and barley like 2 servings...500?...total 750?
4th: the apples and honey lots of honey and lots of apple 250
