Wow brazenly, that is an AWESOME food day you had yourself there! Friggin prawns when you got cravy?! Well F'n done! I woulda been hunting down the chips hehe. I feel I had a very healthy good day today, sticking to my all natural diet with as many fruits, veggies, nuts as possible and less grains and animal protein. Still had myself a bunch of bread haha (basically 3 rolls and 8 crackers). Hope you girls will stop by my new journal. I need to hunt y'alls down myself .
So today Dan and I went to Stanly park for a picnic lunch. I didn't bother worrying too much about what we were consuming. It was a relaxed, feel good kind of day. We did go for a walk along the seawall. We then went to his brother and Gf'nds house on our way home. They have a beautiful huge veggie and herb garden and then sent us home with lettuce, beets, arugula, chives, basil, parsley, mint and radishes straight from their garden. It all smells amazing!
Breakfast: ham, swiss, lettuce and tomato on ww bread, no sauce. coffee, 750mls water
Lunch; *picnic* ~ fancy smancy cheese (so freaking good) on wafer crackers, smoked salmon, olives, olive spread with feta and roasted peppers, apple slices, chocolate macaroons for dessert, 1 regualr pepsi, soda water, 1 liter of water
Snack: snap peas from Mel's garden
Dinner: Omelet*two eggs*, with a little smoked salmon and spinach, two toast
ginger ale
macaroon

That is great abt the garden and such and all the stuff they sent you home with...
I went to water areobics only once this past week, not from lack of trying tho, on Wednesday it didnt clue into me that they werent runnin due to a holiday...and on Thursday I went out to meet my cous and his fam who flew in from Northern Alberta and then I ended up spending the day up at my aunts and uncles and didnt leave there till 730 so no areobics that day...
I am being distracted by a guy, lol...man oh man...for a bit there I wasnt too sure abt things...but I was allowing others judgement and experiences to taint my veiwes and visions...We went out a cpl times this week and im into him...Im just gonna sit back and see where it leads to...We have great comversations and talk alot, we tease and bug and play around...we get along really well...Im enjoying it...
Thursday I ate ok...I had a piece of lemon merange pie, well actually half cuz once I got it my granny was eyeing it up so I shared it...I had a delicious salad at the resturant and then for dinner it was a wide variety of appies...so I ate what I thought was the healthiest but I did have a cpl pieces of thin crust pizza...and a tiny tiny little buns wuith butter and cheese...lots of prawns, cucumbers and some chicken wings which were delicious cuz I couldnt tell you the last time I had one...
Friday was a write off...Had a chocolate roll and I mean I bought a big one and at most of it...had dibbs (YUM) a bbq hamburger and then I went out for Boston Pizza...I had water to drink and then a cesar salad (side) and buffalo fingers but we went to the casino afterwards adn then had 2 beers adn a shooter...a superman shoooter (YUM) and 2 bud lights with lime, this will be what i drink when i drink, 100 cals or so and it was good...I was out from 830pm till 245am lol!
Sat was bad too, went to a movie with the girls and my granny and I pigged out on pocprn and chocolate bars and a big ass coke HEH...then i had a friend over for dinner and we sat around and drank beer, LOL...I had three bud limes...

So... every time I plan to do my aqua fit, i hurt myself before hand... and..I love aqua fit *ok the whole bathing suit thing sucks, but since they wont let me wear a blanket, i have come to terms with it.* So last night i stood on a big piece of glass and have a lovely slice on the bottom of my foot. Need to let it heal for a few days before going to the pool.
I think I have a nasty lil pool hating gnome following me..lol *yeah that's a strange thought...oh well..lol*
Ok... Goals this week: eat breakfast (no skipping)
healthy snacks
I am going to try some stretching and yogaexercises this week, to at least get my body moving while i am not doing aqua fit.
My feelings of wanting to eat everything in sight have been very prominent this weekend and leading into this week. It has been a huge struggle. I have been trying to drink extra water and snack on veggies to try to curb the urge. I wish those urges would just go away, but since I have had them since the beginning of time, I know I have to work on my skills to just deal with it *not submit to it*
One big goal this week is to not binge and if I really struggle, call a friend to get through it.
Im right there with ya Michelle...LOL...Ive been carbs and sugar but i made myself sick on Sunday when I ate 3 bun sandwiches through out the day...LOL
Girsl, I need a Dan too! Can ya share all the way from BC!? Sorry to hear you hurt yourself in the pool.
As far as the cravings, lately since I started this vegan/minimized carb diet I've really seem to have gotten rid of the cravings. I think we all know how you feel when you get in that mode. What I've been doing is just filling up on as much fresh fruits and veggies I can get my hands on. Even when I'm not hungry, if I have access to fruits and veggies I make sure to eat. I've even been drinking a daily shake made of a large cucumber, cherry tomatoes and water. Shakes are a good way to get down some veggies! Anyway, it seems the more I force down as much of that stuff as possible, the less I feel like eating anything else! Its really working great so far. I'm still eating about 3 servings of grainy carbs a day, but haven't had any candy or anything else.
lol Blancita, I keep telling Dan i am going to rent him out..lol My foot is looking a bit better. I actually cut it at home, so therefore I can not go to the pool. I will be ok Tuesday to go. yay!
Fruits and veggies definitely help but I am a binger, so unfortunately when im in that mode, hunger is not the issue...I could eat until im sick. So.. for me... my best bet is to phone someone to talk through it, or even coming on here helps distract me until the urge passes. Doesn't always work, but I am trying to not have to take medication for it...*the meds leave me feeling...well..nothing..lol*
I have to figure something..I have a lot more years to live and I want to do it healthy.. damn it!
Oh gosh, fighting cravings can be SO hard! Ya know how you get in those uncontrollable urge times and other times you seem to have full control..one always seems to forget what the other is like when experiencing whichever. Damn food! Its got such a friggin hold on us lol.
I really need to find some balance in my life before I crash and burn
I added water areobics into my schedule three times a week with a co-worker and it is a commitment...it is also something I need to leave the house for...
I added Bal into my life...We talk everyday...he wants to see me pretty much all the time...Which I love, I enjoy hanging out with him, Im starting to fall for him, I gotta watch myself...he is driving me crazy, lol...Id say on average we see eachother abt 3 times a week...He has me smiling more and more and he is on my mind more also...I know I will talk to him and see him tomorrow adn the next day adn etc ya know, it is a great feeling...this is through the week, in and around and above water areobics and work...
Im burning outfast...My only downtime is at work, sounds silly I know but i have the luxury of working alone...and I just dont feel like exercising when I come here, I NEED NEED NEED to get P90X in somewhere...I miss it.
I wanna shed this weight, Im ready too, I wanna know Im hot, ya know...Not that that is what it is all about...You guys know me well enough to know it certaintly isnt...
Unfortunately running off of nothing has been having me turn to more caffine and sugar and carbs which isnt helping me any...Im drinking less water, drinking more coffee and even grabbing pop when I need to...
I dunno how to balance my life...I have so much in it...I dont wanna give anything up, and Bal is for me, LOL...he is the first selfish thing I am doing for me...
I should be less busy now as my fam that was visiting outta town is leaving this am so Im hoping to get my food back on track...My food isnt necessarily really bad but no fruit or veg, LOL!

cerella you sound like me.. haha I have been trying to stay away from pop but it isn't helping when not sleeping, school and all the damn appts not to mention when phillip is home.. ugh i hate migraines which i seem to be getting more often.. i really need to keep up the water challenge on here cause i think that has been keeping them at bay.. i know that drinking too much water can be bad too. i have been drinking between 3 liters and 5 liters a day and i feel like i'm floating away.. anyways.. going to bed see you all tomorrow.
