Heading to the pub for trivia tonight with a new friend and her friends. It’s Parmageddon night which means super cheap and delicious chicken parmigiana. But, after putting on .5 of a kg last week I need to make sure I am making the best choices.
So, tonight I choose salad.

Looks like I balanced over the course of the week. 

Fingers crossed for a good result

it’s 2:41am.

I just arrived home after a fun night.

As I start thinking about sleep, I am proud.  Proud that I
wore my heels all night
Didn’t eat junk food 
Spoke positively all night, about myself and others.
Success comes in many different forms

My sister is home from London for a few weeks so we’re heading out for drinks.
I’m giving myself a pep talk to relax and enjoy the night.  No whinging and no picking on myself.  Wish me luck, guys.

  • I am joining a new CrossFit.  This was (tragically, or otherwise) the toughest decision I have had to make in a long time.  CBD is my CrossFit home and family but the low wage+ driving+parking was costing me a bucket load.  The new box is opening soon and I got an amazing foundation membership.  
  • Something happened at work this week that I mentioned to a colleague who, in turn mentioned it to another colleague who mentioned it to the boss.  This all came to a head today with a meeting and someone being given a formal warning and a giving me a huge apology.  And now, I am left feeling guilty as it looks like I have dobbed someone in.  
  •  I haven’t trained in a week and I am feeling laaazzzzyyyy but I think it is doing my body good.  However, I need to get back into it before I forget how much I enjoy it.
  • My sister is home from England for a visit and it makes me realise how much I loved living over there *must not make rash plans to leave Melbourne*.  This coupled with the fact that the guy I left in England has been in touch lately- not helpful!
  • I have been feeling a little lonely lately.  A bit out of touch with friends so I made a real effort tonight to call (I do not enjoy talking on the phone as a general rule) text and email a whole bunch of friends.
  • I miss having a cuddle buddy.  Someone you can share a couch, a movie, a bed with just hanging out.  No sexy time intentions, just hanging.  I’ve been missing this since my best mate got a girlfriend- how rude of him! 
  • The end

11 days of calorie counting and I am going great guns!

I’m feeling really positive and it feels very manageable.

However, I am a little concerned that I am being too restrictive and enjoying seeing my fitness pal come in under under my calorie allowance each day.

Gotta find the balance.

Breaking News!

Calorie counting works!
Oh, wait, you already knew that?

I’m slow to catch on sometimes.

In one week I am down 3 kgs or 6.6 pounds!

And I wasn’t even that good.

So…that happened. The first day I have been over 1300 calories all week. I didn’t make the best choices today. I didn’t plan my food and ate on the go. 

I also had a work dinner tonight and estimated my calories at 1000 for the meal. We went to a Chinese buffet and I made the best choices I cough, meat and veggies and avoided the rice. 

Tonight was probably the first time I’ve been to a buffet and not felt sick afterwards. 

A day of good and bad in the healthy eating stakes.

Edit… I am now feeling less that stellar after that meal. Not due to volume, due to the MSG… Chinese food and I are not friends
