Weight: Still Fat
Listening to: The Basketball Game Bri is Watching
Feeling: Curious
Shortly after I posted by first blog and decided to go public to my friends and family to keep up the pressure of "I can do this . . " I got an amazing response. Girls I thought totally didn't have weight issues, did. Maybe I wasn't the only fat girl out there . . . .
In any case I went to my final today, and am now officially on vacation . . . . for a day and a half. As we were sitting in the hall, waiting for someone to unlock the door to the class room, the chicklet twins came down the hall. Two adorably sweet girls, but also two adorably sweet girls that are just as skinny as I was in High School. Bitches.
We chit chatted and finally got into the class. Once we sat down, I took a look around at all the yummy treats everyone had in front of them. Coffees, muffins . . . . as I looked at them all, I felt myself getting angry and jealous over their treats. I started to imagine they were the most amazing treats in the world, and damn it, I bet some of them even have hot chocolate!!!
So I took a walk to the vending machine. Can't tell you why, just did. Yup, the Dorritos were still in there. Oh, and so were the Reese's Peanut Butter cups. I longingly stared at my old friends and wondered if there were new friends to be made. A nutrition-nut bar of some sort there, trail mix here. We were never friends. I don't think we ever will be.
So I walked away from the machine, hands empty.
Pointer- take your own healthy snacks. Grad school is a hotbed of snacks! I used to eat through my classes out of boredom. I started taking a huge bag of air-popped popcorn (6 cups = 1 point, no butter, little salt) and a Diet Dr. Pepper so I didn't feel like I was missing out, too. Keep up the good work!
