Food poisoning. I guess that's what I get for going on a slight binge?
Someone left the refrigerator door open last night (Don't you love communal living??) and I bet on my cheese still being good, but I guess I bet wrong. Been feeling awful all day, unfortunately the only thing that seems to make me feel better is eating more! (it's weird, when my stomach hurts I usually avoid eating to avoid aggravating it, but I guess this time I have to feed it more. It's times like these I wish that 1) I had bread and 2) my diet still included bread). It's been a drippy rainy day and I splurged a little with my comfort drink of hot chocolate (but with water, not milk, so it wan't terribly unhealthy!) -- perfect for this type of day.
At least I was able to be super productive today -- my to-do list looks incredible! I woke up at 4am (and still got my 9 hours of sleep!! I never thought going to bed at 7pm would feel so good...) but unfortunately just sat at my desk most of the day. It paid off but I sure do feel like a blob. Managed to study half of an entire exam's worth of material, write an essay, and run two loads of laundry, all before 10am! and with the rest of the day going like that, I found myself looking for things to put on my to-do list, just to be able to cross them off after!
In other news, I had an apple today that was REALLY good. I can't wait to have another tomorrow between classes!

The good news is I managed to shake yesterday's fever (after sleeping for a solid 12 hours with the heat on high), but today was totally unproductive. I was planning on surfing today but had to drop out last minute because of that sickness! not only that, but I didn't get as much studying done as I had hoped, and now I'm feeling slightly nauseous. I think re-introduction of sweeter things (I had a mocha today, as well as a haverkoeken (literally translated, "oat cookie" -- they're super healthy and delicious, but heavier than what I've been eating lately)) was too much too fast. I'll have to keep that in mind for next time. I think I'll call it a night early and try again tomorrow. But first, I've gotta plan tomorrow's meals.

Some good and bad points of today...
Bad:
-I'm most certainly, absolutely sick. Been fevered all afternoon.
-I couldn't find any blueberry muffins, which I've been craving all week (so apparently, bagels and blueberry muffins don't exist in Holland? I can't find either of them
anywhere
!!)
-I didn't hit my net-cal goal.
-Didn't end up making sweet potato ginger soup (my go-to sick food)
Good:
-I treated myself to a coffee bread pastry, which ended up being healthier than the blueberry muffin. And it was fresh and warm from the oven still.
-I also treated myself to a Milka candy bar...I don't really care for milk chocolate or even sweet things in general, but across my trip to Budapest, my hitchhiking partner would snack occasionally on them and we'd often split one, so it's (already) become nostalgic and when I'm sick, anything to make me think of better times is helpful.
-I have officially voted! (I know this has nothing to do with food or exercise, but I felt successful for it, and it's my first time voting).
-I did make some face-meltingly-spicy chicken soup, which I've been thinking about for a couple of days now. Plus, it turns out that's probably really good for being sick: between the capsicum from the peppers and the liquids. It also has a LOT of vitamin C which is always good for being sick.
All in all, I think it was a net-even day, if not slightly positive. I'm regretting having my splurge day be today, though, as my living unit is planning a communal dinner this coming Tuesday. The good news is I got elected to cook (I guess that's what happens when you're always making the unit smell good with cooking!) and was suggested "something vegetarian, healthy, and inventive" I'm very open to ideas if anyone wants to send any my way! I know I always eat a little more than I should during unit dinners, plus that's election day and we all know how that's going to go with the stress eating...(And due to time changes, it sounds like it's going to be an all-nighter watching the results come in as everything wraps up around 8am my time on Wednesday morning, but starts around 7pm Tuesday night...I should plan snacks and proportions for that tomorrow, note to self! (I'm very against midnight snacking, and stress eating, but I already know both are likely to happen on Tuesday and into Wednesday)).

So thrilled with these results! I woke up this morning feeling pretty dreadful: cold sweat, lightheaded, super groggy, it sounds like I'm getting sick...lets see if I can kick that before it sets in! (Nothing a little sweet potato ginger soup can't fix, right??). I will admit, I've been thinking about blueberry muffins for the past week and I think I'll find a bakery and treat myself to one today. I'll call that my guilty splurge for the week (unless I go to the farmer's market tomorrow morning, then I'll just say the week starts on Saturday because I certainly have a weak spot for those baker stalls!)

Two wins today: Made it under my consumed calorie goal and made it over my burnt calorie goal! I even dropped my original calorie goal for today by 100. For the past 4 days I've been trying to get my net calories in the negative 2000's and i just barely managed today -- was feeling bad about not making it today so I pulled myself together for a night-run and workout. I'm honestly glad I did, though, I feel better after it, and it curbed my feelings of hunger, too, though I did feel a little light-headed after. Nothing a tall glass of water didn't help though! Tomorrow morning's weigh-day, I'm kind of nervous for the results, but I don't think they'll be very big. I don't feel much of a significant change. I know it's only been 3 days but I was hoping this 3-day diet would be a miracle-worker. I can't wait to make a huge pot of soup for dinner tomorrow, though, mmm I'm feeling good just thinking about it! I've already planned out tomorrow's meals: It'll be another low-calorie day in preparation for Saturday (surf day!), because I know I'll splurge a little then (and I want to look and feel best as I can, of course). I am spoiling myself with a bit of a bigger breakfast, though. Definitely a bigger calorie day than today, though, which will feel good. Oh, and another win for today: I spent 10 minutes in the ice cream section considering making a milkshake (keep in mind I have no freezer currently so anything bought has to be either kept at room temperature or in a refrigerator, so that means the whole carton would be gone! (though I could probably enlist the help of a friend of two for that)) and managed to convince myself to walk away empty handed! Fingers crossed for weigh-day!!
