Amiba's journal> it is time to make it happen.


Today I had to face the toughness of eating out.

thankfully I only have one fruit snack and slimfast left because I almost consumed all my calories!

today I had:

a small bowl of smart start cereal and skim milk

then I went with a friend to a place called supersalads,
I ordered a combo but instead of half a sandwich and half a salad I had half a soup instead. I had a bowl of broccoli soup-no cream or cheese on it-
and a Hawaiian salad: lettuce, chicken breast with coconut, cranberries, tangerine and a bit of cream cheese. it was delicious!
and I dared to have a strawberry-banana smoothie in the end.

but.. of course it is a bit more caloric than I usually eat at home.
I am around 1.150 calories so far. just about 200 left for dinner alone.

but I still have to exercise today also. I am going to walk for an hour and a half-moderate pace. see if I can jog a bit, and then my usual stretching and yoga.

I don't think I had a bad meal, it still was healthy enough. but I keep wondering because at restaurants you can't tell how much sugar or salt they add to food and I don't general add any of those, especially salt and the soup was a bit salty.
but oh heck I feel great and I know that by going for a walk I'll feel much better.

xoxo!
 
i always try to go to a place with a salad bar if possible unless its the weekend and I cheat a lil bit

yes I think it is less likely that someone will overeat if they are eating salad along other things, at least I get quite full with veggies!
 

I just came back from walking.

I tried to jog for the first time in my life and heck.. I suck. truly. I have such a bad physical condition now that I couldn't handle more than a couple of intervals.. my thighs basically gave on me. hah.
I did walk for over an hour but I couldn't run to save my life. also seeing all the fit people running and showing off their skinny bodies didn't help much.
but at least I am happy I tried and I enjoyed the walk, a lot of fresh air and it adds variety to my routines.
Also it makes me want to adopt a dog too! loved how people walk with their dogs.

my body hurts from a combination of yesterday's pilates and today's walking.
muscles that I didn't know I have, hurt.
I still have more pilates to go to stretch a bit and that will be all for today, after a whole life or not exercising one bit it is just normal that I will have to take it slow!

I keep reminding myself that this is a new lifestyle and I am not in a rush. weight loss and muscle gain, not to mention physical condition, all takes time, time I am willing to dedicate.

also I thought it would be cute to have a new goal:

when I achieve the weight- body I want I will try to run in a sexy short outfit like most of the girls. haha! it'd be fun.
 
Awesome, my goal is to be able to run in a cute workout clothes, too. It would be so amazing. We can do this thing!

I have to remind myself that I'm in no hurry to lose weight. We'll get to our goal eventually with hard work and determination. :)

cool! I think it is a cute goal. being determined to work out and eventually look really good while doing so in sexy clothing :p
I think we all get frustrated from time to time. but it is better to stay on track and not expect to drop the weight we've gained during our lives in just a couple of weeks.

haha I think that is sexy. my thighs are whiiite, my tummy too. so yeah I am like bi- or tri color too.
I have a fairly light color for a mexican girl. I just don't like the sun that much :toetap05:
 
haha @ tri colored. You are like a stripe!

im more like a snow ball with brown lines protruding from it:rotflmao:

haha! and with tattoos, which do add a bit of more color contrast which is fun
well we could tan a bit before our sexy outfits. I still have like 5 months to go so it won't be anytime soon! and even if I get there by winter I'll be the only crazy little mexicana walking around in that outfit even if it is freezing. yes.
 
yay for tattoos, i need to finish my ribs and my chest, but i wanna wait till im in shape for those

Ill be sure to get some shorts that have booty blasted across the ass of them for sure

I am sorry if I come as strong but.. BOY are tattoos sexy. I can't resist them haha. --winks-- I have my chest piece because it is the only place I like with not much extra fat, it is silly but I haven't had any tats on hips or ribs because of weight exactly. I imagine the tattoo artist going: oh where is my needle? there it is hidden under your hip. --embarrassed--

I want one of those shorts that say something like JUICY on the butt. I think they are nasty and strangely appealing haha
 
yup, i have like i dunno, lemme count. 18, i have weird stuff...anubis, some zombie heads, skulls, black rose, a vampire woman, praying skeleton hands

ya know, weird stuff

that's cool!
I am a huge zombie fan. I guess it is weird because most girls want chick flicks but I better watch some Romero's marathon. I own a little collection of horror movies love em.
my tats are very girly and cheesy: two swallows with the phrase ''she flies with her own wings'' in latin and some pink-yellow clouds. and my wrist says ''art is long, life is short'' in latin too.
 
awww, those sound nifty, ill have to see

i own every romero movie, i have like 50 zombie movies, some are cheesy as hell, but i like em

haha that's sweet of your mom. I got a bag with a zombie drawn on it and a little wallet in the shape of a brain, for my birthday. my mom is still hoping to see me dressed in pink but her hope is slowly fading away
