So last night my friends and I were heading out to dinner...what did they suggest? Olive Garden. I feel disappointed that I didn't stick with my diet, but I excused it with the thought that if I deprived myself that I'd just over-eat anyway. So I'm a little hesitant to put the entry into my food journal, a little intimidated to see what kind of caloric intake I inhaled >_> I'm trying not to guilt over it but today is a new day, and I have been doing better.
I also got my food scale last night from a friend. This is a kinetik or some kind of scale with this neat little digital display that if you input the code from the manual it'll display the nutritional information. This will definitely be helpful as the chicken breasts and such I get aren't necessarily the same weight as the ones that automatically come up when I go to input them here. It'll also help with portion control to give me an idea of what is going into my lunchbox between home and here.
Working out is the part that I'm finding hard. I don't want to work out by myself, however given that my "work out buddy" has found himself a boyfriend who clings worse than a burdock, I'm not going to get him by myself apparently. Which sucks, but I'll have to find a different method.
I feel incredibly self-conscious about going to the gym especially considering most of the people there aren't fat like me, they're generally the girls who have been able to stay healthy in the first place with a healthy lifestyle. The same kind of girls I was teased by through school, and the same girls I tend to avoid interacting with due to a) being a nerd and b) being self-conscious. The purpose of going with a friend is to distract from that and make it fun... So maybe what I'll do is find some audio books for rent at the library and then plug those into my iPod and see if that's distracting enough. I'm there for me, not for them right?
Ugh -_-
