Today - Happy Father's Day. I'll be visiting my grandma with my sister and dad...then home for father's day lunch...hanging out there a bit...then, gym tonight bc i prefer to try to keep the 3x a week schedule. that's it! then reading maybe or even reading in the afternoon at my father's house, prob not though!
i have really nice arms muscles and don't want to lose them - the reason why i do not want to give up my 3x week gym stuff...and make it 2x...really trying to keep it 3x. and jogging is 2x. not ready to change anything just yet...but maybe in August i might make other changes for that month - 3x jog and 2x weights....in August perhaps.
i'll be bringing gym clothes with me so that i am not stopping home before the gym this afternoon. luckily i also have plenty of food for the next couple days - no need to do any food shopping today....and i got gas for my car yesterday too....so only need to visit grandma, be with family, and go to gym. that's it!
____________________________________________________
Yesterday overall was pretty darn successful. I did a little bit more laundry of sheets / towels in the evening so i don't need to think about doing it monday...i also cooked up some turkey burgers for the week, did a small grocery shopping, jogged 1.7 mi, picked up my friend and went to the hardware store to finish up my hamster cage....and the man actually offered to do the work - so i left the top with him....!...treated my friend also to coffee since he was coming with me....good stuff.
______________________________________________________
I have been taking sleeping pills the last 2 nights only (friday night & saturday night) to get some extra rest which has proven a good idea as I do enjoy this on the weekends..
2250 today.
car tire is still a problem so i will once again be late to work bc i have to go to mechanic in the morning with my dad this time (he's meeting me there....i feel so bad about it...but he wants to go)....i probably need a new tire rim...
lots going on this week....gonna be nutty.
i'll prob need to take the bus home from work tomorrow
after the gym, at 8pm till 9pm when i was finally at home to stay - i made sure to get enough food basically for the week (quickly stopped after the gym) so that i don't have ot worry if i do not have a car for tomorrow night.
tire is ok for the moment bc i just put air in it....which is why i quickly did errands (right before the gym at 6pm) as well as returned the shirts my dad said were too big and he didn't want for father's day...he kept the funny t-shirts though :) and he loved my card...
and of course i was at the gym from 6:30-8pm when it closed.
650 before lunch Salmon 300-400, roasted Brussels sprouts 150, salads 250, kinish 200 1000 1650 Plus 350 2000...before dinner

2200 total today = excellent
also cooked up turkey burgers...lol before my jog....i'll jog at some point...going at noon...
__________________________________________________________
Today's plan: jog at park in early afternoon, jogged at gym due to rain - 1.7 miles and left bc i had enough...have lunch, pick up friend to finish up my hamster cage....and then later drive him to the train then relaxing back home & reading / early bed again i think.
Tomorrow's plan: visit grandma with dad and sister, then back home for bbq for father's day, gym in evening.
Prob do laundry of towels / bedding on MONDAY night on purpose relaxing off the laundry thru the rest of the weekend since i did most of it last night! :)
___________________________________________________________
Progress as of today: 2 lbs lost so far, only 3 lbs to go!
then i quit before injury bc i felt it was better to stop than to keep going bc i had plans with a friend and was running so late already it wasn't worth it....
and the hammy is coming....half the cage right now (the top) is at the hardware store bc the worker volunteered to do it for me...i'll give him a nice tip!!!!!!!!!
Doing most of the laundry after work today so that i can quickly do my sheets sunday night if i want to & not have to worry about laundry even tomorrow (i can sleep in and be lazy if i want to!)
2070 weekly avg = good.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Working 9-5 straight with NO BREAKS and lunch at desk....whatever, at least i don't owe the company any time!
Home: kombucha 80

_____________________________________________________
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!
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 :)
Home: kombucha 60
Breakfast: wrap 100, pb 200, sf jelly, banana 120, coffee 50
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.
