Lost another three pounds according to the bathroom scale, despite my mess up with the Olive Garden thing. I'm hoping to get my iPod back from a friend I lent it to as it has my calorie counter on it which would be easier to help me keep track of what I'm doing before we go out to eat.

I've noticed I'm getting migraines a lot more lately and I used to get them pretty frequently when I was younger, but it was related to seizure activity. It has me a little worried, but I'm wondering if it's in response to a) increased stress at school (since I'm adding it back into my schedule that is) b) not getting enough sleep (a consequence of work and school) or c) the diet changes I've been making. I'll be trying to keep track of when I get migraines as well as checking my diet journal to see what it might be related to. When I drink things like water or iced tea or something it's always diet, but I don't bother to drink decaff. I don't drink alcohol, I don't smoke, so I figure a little caffeine might not be too terrible so long as it's in moderation. I limit myself to one coffee or diet soda a day if I drink them at all, though with iced tea I'm a little less concerned with it. I've switched to the crystal lite brand of it though and it makes me wonder if it might have phenylalanine. Both my sibling and I have a slight intolerance to high amounts of it, and diet sodas and other diet drinks are notorious for having it in them. Unlike my sister though I've never had as exaggerated symptoms.

I'll have to check the labels next time I purchase any.

08 September 2011

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 -_-
