Hello Josie,

You could almost still attend the 5 k....I mean just because you don't have a number, and haven't paid the money for the charity, I guess it depends on where this run is. Cuz there have been a couple of runs lately that I have been in, because they were running on public domain, and it wasn't marked. ;) Not that I knew where they were going, nor did I follow them...;) :D

Anyways I would say Yes it sure is nice to be asked out. I guess whether or not it's too soon, is up to you. But what I would take heed on is the fact that you broke up with him (your x) because you and he both needed work individually. It sure is nice to be taken out once in a while though, no harm there. A casual date or two once in a bit. Hope you have fun this evening! ;)

Lata :waving:
 
thanks RG :) my date actually went really well... and it will be nice to "see" someone who treats me right... no rush trying to start anything serious right now.

and the run definitely was a private function.. i ended up running outside anyway, i should have followed them :D

im a starved crazy woman this week :p its that time of the month as i know you all were dying to know.. and although i feel the natural bloat, ive been okay even though i want to bury my face in a buttercream frosted cake, with doritos on the side.... today is an off workout day, i may treat myself to something later on... maybe... if i start salivating :D

mentally im doing ok. i havent been spending as much time on here as i'd like, since work has me crazy right now. plus ive really been taking advantage of the weather and doing some running outdoors, so my lungs are loving it, rather than running in a smelly, sweaty gym, with a fan blowing in my face!

emotionally im doing a little better... everything comes and goes with ups and downs with all the "stuff" thats going on in my life right now. for example, my date on saturday... great guy, super hot, funny, charming and we ended up having a great time.... i was laughing and finally remembered how much fun i could have with someone else... then immediately felt so sad because all i could think was "this should have been my ex"... almost like we never shared such light fun before... so it was a bummer. then the up side is, hey... i still got it, at least... going out on dates... then the down side is, yea, but i still have a lot of love for him, etc etc

so what do i do? i just bury myself in running or in the gym. and i have to say, i dont know what i would do without all these endorphins. probably jump off a bridge! these endorphins honestly make me FEEL GREAT! and help me see that everything isnt so bad.

im trying to channel my body into every time i start feeling depressed or sad, i want to automatically turn to physically activity. like i want to be the girl who gets super sad and depressed one day and all i will be craving the gym because i know it will release all the negativity.

ok ok im rambling... have a good day everyone. i will be back tomorrow to visit everyones diaries! :seeya:

I splurged on ice cream last night!! :eek: I dunno what it is, but this week I havent felt up to anything!! Its been raining all week, that might have something to do with it. But I dont even feel like going to the gym today :( UUUUUGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHH i really dont want to :banghead:

I hate that time of the month. I just want to sleep forever.

Hahah. Obviously I'm in the same place as that sounds really good. :)

Glad to hear you're doing well. I know the emotional ups and downs ... I've been through it myself recently. Some days are good and some are bad and you just have to ride them out. *hugs* to you ...

I'm having lunch with a friend today and I have a feeling that I'm going to give in to mushroom ravioli in cream sauce. ;) It just means more time on the treadmill this weekend.

:biggrinjester: I would love some physical activity... just not the gym! Im totally not feeling it today..... and I havent had much of an appetite either, except for me splurging like a :piggy: on ice cream last night.

Im still trying to mentally get myself to go to the gym since tomorrow I wont be able to, now. But something tells me I'll go, and half ass it... yes... yes.. im whining....

oh and veggie nuggets are cardboard hahaha... u buy them in the organic section of the grocery store. they arent that great, and the sodium is pretty high, but ive been so lazy lately. maybe this week should just be a relaxed week for me and i should just allow myself to sleep all week.

blah

Hello Josie,

Mmm Ice Cream, what kind? I had frozen Saskatoon Berries in my yogurt this morning...Mmm? Kinda look like Blueberries, taste tart, but sweet, of course when ripe.

I was actually looking at some low cal non fat ice creams in a mag the other day too!! And I was thinking...maybe this summer.....

Saskatoon Berry Sparkling Wine, But NO Alcohol. ;) Pie, Syrup, everything.

Sleep is good, I finally caught up on a bunch of sleep yesterday, I haven't been to bed yet though, I am going to have some Strawberries, and than try for a nap, and than have lunch, and than go for a speed walk, maybe pick up some more Strawberries.

I need a big load of fresh produce real soon.

P.S. I got you some pics of Sask Berries, & some happy Sask berries. :D
 
So this past weekend was weird eating.... I didnt have time to write down what I ate Friday, although it was pretty much the usual stuff. Went on another date and had a very boring salad for dinner Friday night, then Saturday I ate a hard boiled egg for breakfast, then went to the beach for a million hours... didnt eat again until dinner, which I had fried clam strips :eek:

Then Sunday I didnt eat a thing because my friend threw a massive lobster bake, and I needed to hold out for that. So all day yesterday I had a bunch of roasted veggies, a million pounds of lobster, and a very small sliver of cheesecake.

Today I am broke, out of food and will be SOL til next week... but I'll do what I can with food. My clothes are getting a lot more loose, although the scale is still in the same range. Maybe I should shock my body a little more and do a calorie drop for the week, see what happens...

hmm

hey girl! Good sounds yummy at your friends sunday!!!! Only suggestion I would have is rather than fasting for long amounts of time just to save up for a large dinner or party with lots of food... go for like a 15-30 min jog and eat normal!!! I know at least for me... when i hold off eating for long periods of time... i tend to TOTALLY PIG OUT when i finally do eat. Or just have a 180 cal Luna bar for lunch.... good source of protein and fiber, keeps ya full a bit longer.. etc. you call though.


all i know is lobster sounds DELISH!!!!

Today I am broke, out of food and will be SOL til next week... but I'll do what I can with food.

Hey thats a good thing!!!! Alot of times the scale stays the same but my pants are getting looser!!! Good sign gf!!! good sign!!!

How many calories do you think you are averaging a day? Just a guesstimate... unless you know for sure. I wouldnt shave TOOOO many calories off unless you can afford some!!! and just remember... you need to treat yourself! Like your lobster dinner and cheese cake!!! Thats good for you sometimes... keeps you accountable too... because then you know the next day during your work out.... ITS ON LIKE DONKEY KONG!!!
