Love? Wait, food comes first.

SO.. i've been a pig today.
But i'm still struggling to get to 1500 calories :(

Right now, at almost 10pm, I am at 1,290 for the day. WTF. And I've been eating really gross too, i think Im about to start my crimson wave (ifyaknowwhadimean).
I've had 2 burgers (with buns!), a hot dog, an ice cream cone (mmm cookies n cream) and waffles with syrup... so I'm actually in the process of baking fries (at 120 a serving), so i can catch up to AT LEAST 1500, oh.. and another ice cream cone. mmm.

EVEN with this disgusting food, there are a couple good things:
1. I'm still working out regularly
2. I'm making good choices within the bad ones
(mustard = no calories
low fat buns = 80 calories compared to 120
1/2cup ice cream = 120 with no sugar added
1/4th cup waffle syrup = 35 calories, sugar free)
3. I'm still staying vegetarian friendly :)

I would have never thought I'd say this but.. I almost bought a kit kat bar earlier today for 220 calories... i should have bought it.
I think the next two days, i'm definately aiming for 2,000 - 2,200 cals.
I'm scared if i don't meet my 1500 - 2000 range, my bod will go into starvation mode and keep the calories i don't need. UGH.

so, this brings me to my food of the day.. because organic blueberry waffles have already been the food of the day..it is honorary today because it is the one serving of item that had the most calories today at 240 for two.
sooo..

CONGRATULATIONS STEAK STYLE FRIES!
YOU ARE FOOD OF THE DAY! because you're taking one for the team.


NOW for the "love" portion of this entry.
It's not really love, but i'll call it that.. because it's something i would respond to if someone asked how my "love life" were going.

OKAY, so there's this guy at work right? He's kinda cute.. i guess.. he's really tall.. over 6', and he's older--way older. Which is good.. not like.. creepy older, but.. more mature, but not weird.. old. WHATEVer, LEts just SAY I've dating someone older than this guy before. OKAY. phew.

**edited 7/16 for privacy reasons**

Then the whole vibe of the conversation went.. weird. It wasn't so cool, and us chatting, it kinda just died. He kinda turned around and kept working. I wasn't sure if he just had to work, or like something made him want to stop talking to me. And i just.. left.

I dunno. I mean, I'm still super girly, you know? I do my hair once in a while, and i look cute sometimes.

Due to some events in the past, i'm not really looking for another pussy-guy, and if a guy is turned off to me gaming? That's a pussy-guy. Soo.. i dunno. I dunno.

Striptease

So, i signed up for Netflix the other day where i can receive two DVD's at time. I figured, i'll get a workout video and a movie at a time! Sounds great right? So i received my first two: Failure to Launch, which i have already seen.. but i really like Zooey Deschannel in it, and Carmen Electras Striptease.

Okay, Carmen Eletra is SUPER CUTE in the DVD's, she's like a little highschooler, and the moves are easy to follow but it's WAAAAY TOO slow for me. So i like it, if it's my first time ever working out. So, after one day i am returning it :( And i'm expecting Island Girl: Hula Workout next, lol. Today after i did Carmen Electras workout, i did my Turbo Jam Live disk. Two workouts in one day? Not bad, especially since i sushied last night, and ate so much i almost blew out tuna rolls.

I have been keeping my calories between 1500 and 2000, doing a really great job doing it, excluding last night of course. :)

Right now, i am eating a delicious veggie chicken pattie sandwhich, with three veggie southwestern nuggets. I am SO impressed with the taste of the veg nuggets, that i am claiming it food of the day! It has a nice little spicy kick, it's meant for breakfast, but great for any time of the day and three large pieces are only 180 calories. So...

CONGRATULATIONS SOUTHWESTERN VEGGIE NUGGETS!
YOU ARE FOOD OF THE DAY!


p.s. this is frustrating, because i can't find a picture of the box eithe ron morningstars website, or in google.. hmm. :( But its more southwesternie, with corn a chicken flavor and a nice light spicy kick.

okay, well.. going to go walk my Ruby now, she just finished eating as well :)

Hmm

My before and after pictures are gradually developing into something good. lol.. i noticed my sides are losing some mass.. which is good, but the 'after' isn't really an 'after' shot, but more of a 'progression' shot. Nice, right?

I went swimming today, there were a buttload of people and a baby crying half of the time. Yucko. I was laying out to dry, when i realized i was getting more of a tan than i already had, so i had to leave. I'm not really going for the African-American look.

OH And if you noticed, i posted one of my addictions onto my blog, with the whole Flobots playlist. I could only find a couple flobot songs on projectplaylist.com :(

I was contemplating on my food of the day, even though i haven't yet had lunch. BUT I DID HAVE BREAKFAST, and mmmm was it yummy. I had these Organic Blueberry waffles, which actually tasted like i picked the blueberries this morning and made my waffles from scratch. DELISH.
sooo...

CONGRATULATIONS ORGANIC BLUEBERRY WAFFLES!
YOU ARE FOOD OF THE DAY!


i'm not sure if this is the brand i have, because i'm too lazy to walk over to the freezer :)

But the picture is good enough, only one i can find on line

Current Obsessions

I.. have been plagued with obsessions the past couple of days. And you're probably thinking, well.. and obsession means one thing. Well, actually.. it's not one thing. If i can't obsess over one thing at this one time, i'll find something else to be ridiculously engrossed in.

*Location* Parents house in Brandon
*Obsession* Watching Bones:Season 2 DVD

*Location* Parents house in Brandon **WHEN MY MOM HAS THE REMOTE OR PUSHES ME OFF THE COUCH
*Obsession* Reading & Writing in my physical journal

*Location* My Car :)
*Obsession* The new Flobots CD that Karens bro let me borrow.

I went to the store earlier today, i like ran. I ran to go back to my car to listen to the CD and get the hell out of WalMart and get back to my little obsessions. Yeah, I guess you can say those little obsessions testify that I have a life.. lol.
And if you know me, I LOVE WALMART. ... But i love money more :)

Mi madre wanted to go to the mall foodcourt and eat lunch there.. she had this huge chicken platter, and i had 12ounces of miso soup. yum yum! They ran out of sushi :(
I bought microwaveable miso soup in a cup for when i go to work. SUPER Asian, right?! haha. Aaaand miso soup made me realize how much i really really really like tofu, weird, right? Yeah.

Another obsession? THE FOOD OF THE DAY!

CONGRATULATION LIGHT CHOCOLATE SilK SOY MILK!
YOU ARE THE FOOD OF THE DAY!


obviously its the one on the right. But.. this is one of the only pictures i could find of it.

WELL.. wow, i'm ridiculously sleepy. So.. ciao!
