My mind is in a million different places right now.
I'm considering taking my calories up another notch to 1400-1500 based on some info i read this morning, and since fatsecret tells me to eat 1700 a day, i guess it couldnt hurt. Now that i am working out a lot more and incorporating weight training, the extra calories cant hurt, and certainly wont make me gain, at least in the long run (i hope) Right now i'm at 1250 calories for the day and i havent decided where i want my extra 200 calories to come from today, maybe a spoonful of peanutbutter for dessert?
I've been thinking alot about my goal weight (thanks to k8yk and her wisdom that she so kindly shares in her journals) and i realized something. When i was in highschool i went through this same journey, and got stuck right at around 132 pounds and was only able to get to my lowest weight of 125 pounds by very unhealhty measures that i'd rather not share. I also remember that when i reached 132 in HS i had fat in all the same places that i do now, and i hated being 'so close yet so far away', which is exactly how i feel now. So this time around, instead of relying on extreme measures, i'm going to start really focusing on weight training and building up my lean muscle mass, which will (if all goes as planned) blast the fat off my problem areas. As i am now i would definitley consider myself 'skinny fat'. I'm little, but oh so very flabby. Weight training it is!
Ugh.. really, its only Tuesday.
