aww thankyou guys! :] nice to hear i was missed!
so yesterday i took in about 2200 calories.... BUT.....my team was holding the running event yesterday and i had to put out the some of the courses so i jog/ran about 4km and then i had to run my race which was 7.5km flat out and then i hdas to take in ALL of the courses with my dad :| which was about 6km jog/walk. so i did a lot of exercise.
im still not losing though. even though ive modified what im eating (no more sugarry cereals, no more cereal after breakfast time, protein+salad for dinner, fruit if im hungry)
i dont really understand... i am finding it so hard to get the balance that i need. i have got some really important races coming up this month so i cant starve myself of energy - i cant train or race effectively witout sufficient fuel but theni need to be eating the right sort of fuel at the right times BUT i dont want to gain weight because it slows me down. my coach is nagging me to do this thing where i eat no carbs monday tuesday wednesday thursday and then friday saturday and sunday just stuff myself with them.
im totally not sure about that because i think i would lose control due to being a bit of a carb obsesser - especially cereals dont get me started on eating cereal lol...
if anyone has any advice then i would love to hear it
so tonight it is my friends birthday and i am going out again :| why does everything social wise have to involve eating atm. we are going for pizza apparently so there are warning bells going off in my head. theres gonna be 12 of us i think. now all my friends do little exercise but cram their faces full of food and all weight about 7-8 stong. they dont understand what im doing with the healthy eating. i know that if i dont order pizza and order salad tonight then they'll all nag about how i dont need to lose weight how im slimmer than all of them and how fat they all are blahblahblah. i cant win. i know they probably worry because of the problems i faced with eating a couple of years back but at least i am eating now.
oh, news on my friend that was having problems :[ i am so angry at her parents right now. they have guided her to be a failure. i dont mean that to be any jibe at her at all. she has been poorly guided and im so cross. they have given in to her when she needed them most - for her to be able to have a good future and they have just folded.
they let her quite school like one month before our major exams. meaning that she has no gcse qualifications now - to get almost any job they want a pass at gcse math and english. they said she didnt have to go to to a levels at school and that she could go to college to do the course she wanted to do. she got into college on exception grounds because she was ill and her parents havent checked up on her work or anything. so now it is the end of her first year and she has completed none of the assignments therefore cannot go onto the second year of the course. she said she didnt want to go to college anymore so her parents were like whatever. so i guess she wont have that qualification either. she doesnt want to go back to college becauseif she starts a new course she will be with people 2 years younger than her. she cant go back to school because she hasnt got her gcses and would have to start in a class of 13 year olds. she cant go to university because she has no qualifications. she cant get the job she wants because she hasnt completed the course. she cant any decent jobs here because she doesnt have gcse maths and english. she has met some guy who used to be in the marines who is 5 YEARS OLDER THAN HER (she is 16) so i am wary of him already. can he not get anyone his own age. i mean she is a lovely girl and all so im not doubting her ability to be able to pull a guy that age or whatever but does he not have anything else to do but hang around with a 16 year old girl ALL THE TIME. he is attached to her hip practically. and can she not see why he is there... he practically lives at their hous enow .. he gets free acomadation there, her mom does his washing and ironing, he eats with them most days. they even paid for him to go on a skiing trip with them to france for two weeks and im sure that that wasnt cheap EVEN THOUGH HE IS IN FULL TIME WORK he didnt make a contribution to the cost. he is supposed to be an adult now. i just dont trust him an inch.
i really worry about her but what can i do?
meh
