FRIDAY!!!!!! Mmmm...eggwhites and diet toast.
Okay, so dinner last night was pretty lame. Fortunately they didn't complain about being poor, which was a relief because they were talking about buying land in South America, and if they had talked about poverty in the same breath, I would have lost my shit right there. There was no drinking because I am afraid of being fat and because they are preggers with #3 in two years. I swear my body hurts just thinking about it! Last night's exciting conversation centered around law school, politics, and ummmm...babies, whihc was an improvement over last night's. Of course no one asked me about my classes because they don't relate to politics or law. How rude! Ugh. Basically, we're having dinner with the past, present, and future of law (not in that order though). The first couple wants to go; the second couple went, and the third is currently in school.
I really only had one choice for dinner last night. The chicken was stuffed with cheese and covered in a sauce, so that was out. Pasta is always out. The fish was served on a salad topped with feta, and it was covered in Caesar dressing and croutons. Ick? Not only is that dressing fattening as all hell, but it's gross. Doesn't that completely defeat the purpose of ordering salmon? So I got the steak and steamed shrimp. I ate the veggies, but not the rice. For an appetizer, I obviously got the salad with dressing on the side, which made me feel a little conspicuous because everyone else got fried calamari. Whatever. For dessert, I had strawberry shortcake, which was a super small size, probably about 1/2-3/4 cup, which was mostly strawberries thank goodness. I only drank water.
I'm so over dinner.I never want to eat at a restaurant again, but of course, I have to eat out with my parents tomorrow!!! AND I have a party to go tonight! GAH! This is cruel and unusual punishment! This has been the week from diet HELL. Two parties in a week and four dinners at restaurants. *dies*
Yesterday I went to the gym and did the elliptical for forty minutes without any music because my ipod was playing when I didn't know it, and the battery was dead. It was dreadful!
Obviously I've been eating as little as possible all day to make up for it. For example.. Today: Breakfast: 1/2 c egghites, diet toast, fiber pills...vitamins (100) Lunch: sugar free high protein, high fiber oatmeal topped with some blueberries (120) Snack: a few pieces of deli turkey (50) Dinner: restaurant food (4343449592859)
On the upside, I look super cute again, because I'm wearing my new green dress...(scroll down to see). Also, I'm loving all my new makeup. Yay!
I'm about to head into work. Bah. I think that today I'm going to walk for 45 minutes during lunch, and when I get home after my meeting, I'm going to do an hour of iron yoga. Tomorrow, I think I'm going to run. I hope it's not too hot out...
In my head, I'm thinking of clothes I never wear that I intend to get rid of, that way I have an easy way to start. I'm getting used to the idea. So far, I already have like 10-20 things I know I will get rid of, and even if I get rid of nothing else, that will be an improvement.
So I'm feeling a to do list: 1. Go to work. 2. Do reading for class (at least 50 pages) 3. Do timesheets. 4. Do research on the people I'm meeting with. 5. Go for 45 minute walk. 6. Go to meeting. 7. Drink a liter of water before leaving work. 8. Go home; do iron yoga. 9. Eat snack. 10. Wash hair. If I have time, pluck eyebrows and do a mask. 11. Go to obligatory dinner and party. 12. Die of fatness.
