Just a quick post tonight, cause I'm exhausted and have to be at work in six hours, which means five hours of sleep for me tonight. Again. x.x
Today, I ate around 1500 calories. I would have stayed at 1300 if I hadn't had to stay up and write a paper, causing me to get hungry at a time when I'm normally asleep. I snacked on a couple/few string cheeses. I love cheese.
I was working on my paper because I spent part of my afternoon in the gym. After I come home from class, I generally chill for about an hour to just relax and unwind after the hectic-ness my day can be. At five, I called my friend Courtney and asked if she wanted to go to the gym with me. I called my mom while I waited for her to get here and pick me up, and we got to the gym about 5:40, walked around the track briskly until a couple of ellipticals opened up at 6:00, and then we each worked out for half an hour. In 26 minutes, I TORCHED 300 calories. Like, torched. I'm talkin, like, I kicked ass and didn't even bother about the names. I've been going hardcore the past few workouts and I love it. I always want to stop and slow down but the exhilaration at the end is so worth it. I also ate near-flawlessly today. Cottage cheese/banana for breakfast, salad/fruit cup/soy milk for lunch, banana for snack before the gym, Random Salad (will explain tomorrow) for dinner, and three string cheeses as snacks. I love me some dairy!
While this week is not as hectic as the past two have been, I still have a lot of things going on I didn't forsee, so forgive me if you don't hear from me much this week. I'm still reading your blogs, I promise! And a big HEY to my new followers! <3 you guys!
