Yay.
I’m feeling pretty good.
Got through yesterday really well.. fought off a few cravings - I have nutella in my cabinet but I kept reminding myself that this diet isn’t forever and about how much better it’ll taste when I’m thinner =P
Also I know I’ll eat during thanksgiving and my birthday so why spoil it? that nutella will be there after I lose some weight and it’ll taste much better guilt-free! Before I would have taken a taste with a spoon or something and not considered it so bad, but I keep reminding myself that this isn’t one of those diets, I can’t cheat at all or I’m slowed. plus i had plenty to eat during the potluck anyway. just isn’t worth it.
I get these cravings late at night because unfortunately I would eat at night.. well not anymore..~
So I feel much stronger having fought those cravings off.. a few more days and I’ll have that attitude back where I could just see a piece of cake or chocolate and not think twice about not getting a piece.
I’ve been drinking a lot of tea..
Yesterday I made two frapp’s with sugar-free walden farms chocolate syrup, s-f da vinci caramel syrup, a buncha coffee and ice with milk.. good stuff. That was pretty sweet as is with the caramel.
Today is another milk day, I’m sipping on green tea and massaging my beads…
I just want to lose 10-15 before my birthday party, get back to my comfort zone…
The good thing is that I’ll get to finish off my diet during the month-long winter break..
My mom wants to go to bangladesh but I really don’t, so we’ll see what happens in that department. I want to work or something.
Oh, I was talking to a friend about my party and she’s going to help me cook.. I told her about Myles’ situation with his gallstone and how he can’t eat a lot of stuff, so we’re going to make a menu that is low-fat but really good.. we’ll have a variety of stuff though but it’ll mainly be low-fat. Like some type of lasagna with skim ricotta and ground turkey instead. I’m SO excited actually to cook and stuff for the party..
I’m really looking forward to it~ My suitemate’s friend is pretty rich and owns the borgata in atlantic city and also a bar, so she said she could provide some drinks.. My friends aren’t the type to get messed up, I just want a few drinks around for the purposes of socializing, nothing crazy.
We’re just going to watch movies, listen to music, talk, hang out.. that’s all I really ask for. I’m not into clubbing or anything although that’s what most people do in college.. Next year I’ll probably do something nicer since I’m turning 21 and I’ll hopefully have more money. I don’t want to rent out a place b/c I simply can’t afford it, but honestly I’ll just be happy to see everyone.
Blah, I’m excited! I love party-planning and my friend is going to be such a great help!
Good motivation to stick with the diet!
I love this green tea too.. it’s lipton but it’s flavored jasmine, orange, and another flavor, so it’s pretty good. I’m not a fan of reguar green tea, but this is really helping me get through the inital cravings while my body adjusts back to the diet. I’ll update later~
