Day Two!!!

Hey! So today was day two of our lil diet and exercise shindig. Today I didn't have any classes so I got to sleep in for awhile which was really nice. I woke up and had some oat meal and a piece of banana bread, mmm that stuff was good. Then I got ready for the day and tried to look half decent. My roommate started to do tae bo so I did a lil bit here and there with her lol just to show her up jk jk but really. But I didn't want to sweat because I had to go to work so I didn't do too much exercising. Then I treated myself to three reduced fat nilla wafers and a peanut butter sandwhich. Oh and btw I've been drinking crystal light to go which is basically just diet flavored water, so its really easy just mix it into a bottle of water and you are good to go. It tastes great and it makes you drink a lot more water. So anyway then I went to work and did that til eight. After work I came home and ate some more nilla wafers and another peanut butter sandwhich. Then I went to the gym with my roommate and another boy in our fhe and we went and lifted. I feel like today was focused mostly on legs and abs and it felt great! The gym closed at ten though and we didn't leave until nine so I'd say we got in a good half hour or so, maybe a little more but I'm only going to count the 30 minutes. Haha then we went to the FHE bro's apartment and watched some tv and then just hugged this super cute guy for about ten minutes lol his name is Matt and he is like the hunk of the ward or something lol everyone knows him. So that was nice. Now I am going to finish up some last minute homework and get some sleep. Another long day of school tomorrow. Like really...from nine in the morning until six thirty at night...yikes! Wish me luck! lol peace out!


So okay...today really wasn't that awesome. To be honest, I didn't put much of an effort into exercising. In my defense, I felt pretty crappy again today. Like Sunday only not as bad. I just have had stomach issues and a bad headache all day. I even went to Walmart to look for exercise videos and they didn't have any! So I'm going to look in Twin when I get back.

My food intake for the day was as follows: Cereal (the sugar kind), chips and salsa, a little bit of Taco Bell, a can of Beef Stew, 4 cookies, and a few spoonfuls of ice-cream. My stomach issue makes eating kind of awkward and not fun. The kind of stomach pain I have feels like hunger pain...so I eat. But then I just get nauseous for a while and then I have that hunger pain again. So I don't think I really am hungry like my stomach is telling me so I've tried to put off eating because I know that following it will be a sickening feeling.........ugh. I hate being sick.

And Bergen, I just heard about your accident and I got all worried and scared inside! I heard you were okay (Praise the Lord for Facebook!), but I am very sorry you had to experience something that awful. And if you feel like sharing the details, I think this blog would be a perfect place to post them :D

Hey!! So this post is a day late, but I'll explain that a little later! I didn't exercise today because I drove home to Moscow. I spent all of the day in the car which was oh so fun. I didn't eat very well today either. I had an egg and sausage croissant for breakfast with a Dr. Pepper for caffeine ( we left at 6 a.m.) then I ate some chocolates courtesy of Danielle, had an almond, ate a string cheese, and some pretzels. For lunch we stopped at Wendy's. This was after my little car wreck so I wasn't really hungry. I ordered a 5 piece chicken nugget, a small fry and some water. After we got home I had a huge helping of Manicotti, ate some buffalo chicken pizza, two breadsticks and finished off my energy drink. :D Like I said, I did a crap job of eating today. But I was pretty stressed and bored out of my mind.

Anyway. So as you both know I got in a wreck on my way home. We were about 30 miles outside of Missoula when our car hit a pile of slush and lost traction. We swerved left, overcorrected and swerved right, slammed into the guard rail, spun completely around and drove into the left median. The impact was pretty intense, but luckily no one was injured much more than a few bruises and sore spots. We got out to inspect the damage and I feel very blessed. Only the front is smashed up. The blinkers still work, the brights still work, it's just the main headlights that are gone. The car still miraculously works and we were able to make it home without any other major disastors. It was a pretty sobering experience, and I am defintely feeling the effects of how short life can be, and how in a flash, things can change. But other than the wreck, and not eating very well--my day was pretty good.

I will definitely try to be better about my diet from now on :) Over and Out.
