Casey's Diary, Part Deux!

So instead of eating doughnuts, I went downstairs and got a garden salad....lettuce, tomato, cucumber and shredded cheese with fat free Italian dressing. Almost cost me five bucks (what a rip off!) but I didn't eat the doughnuts! I know if I had one I'd have to have another one, and then one more....
 
Very upset with myself...I dented my car this morning backing out of my apt. driveway. Five parking spots for four 2-bedroom apartments, so people park all over the damn place. My parents just got me this car in October. I am so pissed at myself. The good news is that I just got my refund check from school so I'll be able to pay for it. I have no idea how prices work when it comes to body repair so I will probably get ripped off. My dad works on cars and I wish I could tell him so he'd get me a good deal but he'd throttle me if he knew I'd already wrecked my car.
 
That's a tough one, Casey. Sorry to hear your day isn't starting too well. If you're willing to do the leg work you should probably get quotes from a few different places. Or maybe it ends up being worth the 'talking to' from your father to save yourself some time and money. Things will work themselves out.
 
Thanks Emily....I have an awesome boss and she talked to some of her friends and they recommended someone who does great work and is very reasonable. And my boyfriend told me he'd drive me anywhere I needed to go. I feel much better about the situation. And I didn't stress eat over it!
 
Hey Casey,
Sorry about the car glad your OK and
koodos on that gr8 desition salad over donuts!
"YOU ROCK....Tammy
 
Good to hear about the car. I always get stressed about those type of things too. I used to at least, when my car was newer. Now that its all paid off, its more or less just cheap a to b transportation. I should say I do still care about how it looks but, it does have some scratches and dents that I haven't fixed just because I don't care that much, I guess.

:hurray: for you saying no to donuts!

That sucks about the car, but I'm glad a coworker was able to help find a good fix!

Way to go on resisting the donuts!

Hope you're having a great weekend! :D
 
Thanks guys! I'm going to call the body repair guy and see if he's open tomorrow, and have him take a look at it. Then I might drive it there Tuesday. Gah, I hate being without a car!

Eating has been less-than-stellar lately. I've been getting my fruits and veggies, but I've also been getting mac and cheese, curly fries, and Chinese and Mexican food. I have been working out like crazy though! 5 mile run on Monday, 4 mile run on Thursday, tae-bo yesterday, and a 6-mile run today. My body is sore but feeling good. Today was better food-wise...whole wheat eggos with peanut butter and soy milk and apple slices for breakfast, a serving of mixed nuts, a spinach/baby greens salad and Ramen noodles for dinner.

I hope everyone has a fabulous three day weekend!
 
That is some killer running you're up to!!!
As a quick tip, be sure and fill up on as much fruits and veggies as you can stand, it'll quell cravings for junk and your blood sugar and insulin production will be nice and stable :) Running like that is going to make you hungry, so fill up right!

I understand about the car; I knocked off the passenger's rear view mirror on my new car a month after I bought it :mad: To replace the fender, attach a new mirror, it would have cost NINE HUNDRED DOLLARS so I said fuck it and go without a mirror. In Cali, you only need 2 rear view mirrors anyway.

Hope you don't get ripped off! Have a great Monday tomorrow!
 
(((((yawn)))))

Hope everyone has a great Tuesday! Eating hasn't been what it needs to be lately. The holiday/long weekend just offered too many excuses. I've been working out a lot, but I need to pay more attention to what I'm eating. I'm hoping it will get better when I get back on schedule.

Yesterday was whole wheat Eggos and a banana for breakfast, Taco Bell for dinner (cheese quesadilla and bean burrito) and a seafood alfredo stir-fry meal before bed. And a granola bar. And 4 cookies my boyfriend's buddy got him from Belgium. (Real Belgian chocolate...yeah...) I was really sore so I took the day off from exercise.

Hopefully today will be great!
 
Thanks everyone! Today's been great so far...wheat eggos, soy milk, and black coffee for breakfast, and a pb sandwich on whole wheat, wheat thins, mixed nuts, and apples for lunch. I have some leftovers at the apartment for dinner. I'm planning on doing Tae-Bo this afternoon. I'm quite impressed with myself...I made my own little calendar with my workout schedule on it and so far I've stuck to it. :)
 
Tired...sick of worrying about what I eat all the time. I don't know why I just feel these compulsions to eat. I want to just go home and sleep, but I have to get on the treadmill in an hour and then I have two meetings for my sorority tonight. I'm without a car, thankfully only for three days. I'm down in the dumps. I just want to eat a truckload of ice cream. And I don't even know why. A few spoonfuls is all it takes to get the satisfaction, but I want to fill my stomach with it. I want to cuddle with my boyfriend, and smell him, and kiss him, but I will barely have any time with him tonight, unless I stay up late. Ugghhh.
