Days 3, 4, and 5

Day 3

I went to the fair.  This should tell you right off the bat that this project got fucked 6 ways from Sunday.  I ate Greek stuff--which was AMAZING but probably super bad for me--and a milkshake and candy from booths in commercial buildings (only a little) and a full soda. And then we went home and ate pizza.
IN MY DEFENSE I was walking around in the super-heat for about 6 hours.  So... it probably cancels a bit of that out, right?  I doubt it, but I'm going to say it does because it makes me feel a little bit better. hahah.

Day 4
I didn't do jack shit yesterday.  Honestly.  I didn't get up and work out.  I didn't take my antihistamine or my multivitamin and I didn't run at night.  And I drank soda.  TA DAAAA! This is how this is going to go.  One step forward and two steps back.  I did walk a mile with my mom, though.  And I did a bunch of cleaning in my room. (Which is what I'm supposed to be doing now.) So at least there was that.  Hardly counts as anything, but it is something.

Day 5
Uh... yeahhh... Considering the last two days?  I'm not posting a picture today. Absolutely not.  I doubt I'll go every five days anyway.  Maybe once a week.  That sounds more reasonable.  I have two more days to catch back up with my bad habit(s).
Even though... uh... I'm going back to the fair on Wednesday... Sigh. #Facepalm.  and I'm going to be even dumber then!  Because that's just how I roll. lol.
Welcome to my life.

I have a feeling this cruise isn't going to be nice to me either.

But I am intending to run tonight.  I'll desperately need a shower by tonight anyway, so I may as well earn that bugger.

This is about as hard as I knew it'd be.  Maybe I'll get a personal trainer at UND to help me.  We'll see what happens.


I think that having to admit to the public that I have horrible nutritional/health habits is enough to keep me in a 'moving forward' motion.  I mean, yeah, I screwed up the last couple days, but that's life.  The fact that I'm not giving up with "this is too much for me to accomplish" kind of says something.  I've done it almost every other time (though not quite this early yet, I don't think).  so we've already made progress!

Or something like that.

  1. Hang in there! The first few days are always the roughest, but after a week or so, you'll start results and you will feel AMAZING!

    Also, don't be afraid to post those pics! Nothing like a little public embarassment to get you motivated! ;)
