Well, I've survived stress part one and now I'm back to an old stress - trying somehow to get this thesis done before it makes me crazy or it results in having no vacation this summer. I have 6 days of easter break and this is what I'm planning to do with it.
In the mean time, since I'll actually be home, I'm hoping to get a few fitness breaks in and try and eat healthy food. I found a delicious form of chocolate cheesecake ice cream with 130 cal and 6 grams of fat per 1/2 C serving. Not bad - although the neopoliten frozen yogurt with 100 Cal, 2.5 g of fat is better.
Hopefully they'll get frozen berries back in stock in the store. Today, I'm using up my overripe bananas in banana bread. I'll have to share it to keep from eating all by myself. I think I could try freezing it.
In the meantime, I'm holding steadyish weightwise, but I have a new incentive to get these last 7 pounds back off. Going to hang out some time this summer (if I get this thesis written) with a boy who I think might like me. Meanwhile, my ex is starting to talk about getting back together. I'm kind of torn. We had a good thing going, but I think this other option (another old friend) might be maybe a better match. Its hard to compare since I know my ex much better... and voila... my horoscope
Gemini (May 21 — June 21)
It's hard to make sense of a certain someone or an important situation. Nothing is likely to change unless you make an effort to examine things in a different way. Never mind logic – trust your intuition.
That made me chuckle. Life is complicated.
So, in spite of thesis writing - I'm going to try and get some sliding habits under control. I've been terrible about drinking water the last little while and I've caught myself eating when really I'm thristy. I need to bring a glass to work or wash my water bottle so its safe to drink from and I've been choosing some higher fat snacks lately and lastly, I've hardly exercised in the last few weeks. My apartment (which I share with roommates who aren't really friendly) hasn't been a good place to exercise and and my jeans have gotten just snug enough to discourage me from exercising at work. But I need to get back at one or the other. The weather is getting more decent (i.e. the danger of immediate frost bite and lung damage has decreased) So its more like normal winter lately. So hopefully I'll start getting out to hike and ski.
On the good side, I've been snacking responsibly on cheese and crackers which is something I tend to overdo.
Heres to living healthy and making good choices and to giddyness of new crushes and warmth of old loves and the calorie burning walks to try and figure out what to do about them.
