Oh no Sarge, not UTAH. I promised myself I would never go back! No, just kidding, I go back all the time. I can show you guys around if ya'll want
(This is a mountain, and over here is another mountain...)
Jeez, I go to check in and it's Utah and butts everywhere.
chickadee, YAY. Big congratulations to you! 80 lbs lost is incredible. Just amazing.
celrae, have you heard of myofascial release? It really helped me with my PF last year, and my shoulder this year. It' super cheap too, you just have to invest in a lacrosse or tennis ball. New shoes are good as well!
Rated, I wish I knew. Time management is the worst thing for me. Regular meal times just go out the window, so I try to have snacks around that I won't binge on (apples, carrots, etc.) Life and school get insane sometimes, but it's always worth it to set whatever time and energy you can aside for yourself or you'll go crazy. Sometimes it helps me to be in the moment, realize I'm stressing out, and instead of eating to try and relax, consciously force myself to relax and let it go. Tea is also very comforting, studying friendly, and calorie free. Hang in there!
So, my birthday was yesterday, which was full of school and work (it's fun being an adult). My roommate did make me the best brownies ever, and I had one after our run together. Then I put them on the fridge, where they hopefully won't call to me as much.
This weekend is going to be a big challenge, however. My friends always celebrate birthdays on the weekends, and we usually celebrate a LOT. I suggested a movie instead of dinner, but I have a birthday lunch tomorrow and then drinks after the movie, so I've got to plan ahead. I also just took my math final today. It was very stressful, which is usually a good excuse for me to eat something comforting the weekend after. Well, NOT THIS TIME, buddy. I am staying on calories and getting in all of my scheduled workouts. I have a big hike planned for before lunch, and I'll just have to limit my drinking a bit.
5 days until I finish the shred. Also, I was kind of bad and peeked at the scale yesterday and it was up. This is why I don't look at the scale through the week, but I'm nervous. Oh well. As long as I'm OP.
