Seductive little devils

Hello lads and lasses! My post is belated today since I posted so late last night. Also, because I’m flat out exhausted. My new job and Fitbloggin’ are two things I love, but they have both succeeded in wearing me out completely! I literally can’t wait to go to sleep tonight. It’s pretty much all I can think about. But there’s a lot standing between then and now!

Last night for second dinner, I had an amazing bowl of yoatgurt.

Hmmm, I was clearly as tired last night when I was picking out that photo as I am right now. ‘Tis blurry, but last night I could have sworn it was not. The oatmeal was mixed with some Justin’s Almond Butter and paired with Dannon 0% Vanilla Greek yogurt. Yum.

Breakfast was another green monster, bringing my consumption total to three in under 24 hours. I cant get enough.

Lunch was slightly embarrassing. I really can’t wait until I have time to cook again. I miss having leftovers for lunch. Instead, I had more canned soup.

And alongside that can ‘o sodium, I had a can ‘o sugar. I’ve been staring at a twelve pack of root beer in the work fridge all week, and I finally caved.

I definitely didn’t feel too hot after this lunch. Full? Yes. Satisfied? No. Preservatives are seductive little devils, but you always pay for them afterwards.

I’m trying to remedy the situation right now with an apple.

But there’s really no hope for me today. I have a post-job #1, pre-job #2 date at a little Italian joint right after work. Date #2 in fact. Kind of a big deal, since I don’t remember the last time I went on two dates with a guy willingly. I did go on two dates with a guy last year around this time, but it was entirely against my will. Have I mentioned how much I hate dating?

And after that… we’re having pizza at work. And hey, I’ve got to be social and eat some right?! Let’s not kid ourselves, I love pizza and I’m rather looking forward to eating it.

Seriously though. I’m really ready to return to a semi-normal way of life, which means working out four or more times per week and eating real, home-cooked food the majority of the time. I’m thinking that I’ll be able to get there by Saturday, but until then I guess I’m just going to make the best of it.

  1. You’re more of an expert than me now that you’re working at a running store. As soon as I get my car back I’m going to go buy a new pair of runners….hopefully next week. I think it would be more overpronating then bunionbut what do I know:-)

  2. I had a can o’ sodium yesterday for lunch. My friend has a thing against pork and noticed on the food label they had snuck it into her Progresso chicken corn chowder. And I won’t turn down a free lunch. So yeah. Sadly, I felt the same as you about it. Just “eh”.

    Have fun with the dude good enough for a second date! I have a hard time finding those guys these days. Either that, or my standards have just skyrocketed out of control. ha ha

    Good luck!

  3. Yeahhhhhh can’t wait to hear about the date! You are one saucy minx!

    And there have been plenty of days where a can of soup has made my meal. No shame in that sister!

  4. Ooooohhhh…dates are always exciting! I used to be a bundle of pure nerves when I went on dates :D Have fun and enjoy the pizza, I’m lovin your positive attitude!

  5. I hate dating. To quote Liz Lemon “I just wish I could start a relationship about 12 years in where you don’t really have to try anymore and you can just sit around together and goof on TV shows and go to bed without anybody trying any funny business”

  6. Ooooh…want to hear how the date goes! Hope you had some fun and relaxed…you seem rushed off your feet these days. Remember to breath and remind yourself that you will get through the mad hectic stage!
