Long weekend whoop whoop!

Sorry Mich. No video of me singing. It never occured to me to ask anyone to capture the moment. Next season I will get someone to do it.

Woke up friday morning at 212.3 so I successfully lost 5 pounds in time for this weekend. Not the 10 I was hoping for due to a huuuuge binge on Monday night. And sunday too. Fuuuuuck.

Mike came over on Wednesday night after my rehearsal. He drove me to work at the hospital in the morning. He had to bring the on call phone back anyway. He didn't have to work, the lucky bum. Thursday I worked and had a meeting afterward I was hoping to see Mike in the evening but he was playing cards with his friends. He texted me at 4am just to say good night.

I had a crappy sleep and texted him at 9 in the morning to see if he was up. He got up to pee so I asked him if I could come crawl into bed with him. Mmmmm morning cuddles and ahem. . . Other thongs lol. We went to subway for breakfast and then spent the rest of the day being lazy. We watched Rise of the Guardians and the Star Trek movie. His room mate joined us for a bit of both. I went home around 6 to make myself some supper, I didn't want any of his hamburger helper. I was sitting round trying to figure out what to do with my evening and Mike texted me to tell me they were playing cards and I could come if I wanted.  That was at like 7:30. Lol. I've been trying to make sure I give him space and don't get too clingy but if he's inviting me I'm jumping on the opportunity. Especially if I have no other plans. Soooo I played one of his room mates decks and drank with them until 2am. I was that cool girlfriend who went on a beer

Now I'm sitting in my hair dressers chair getting my roots filled in. Don't want to show up to family dinner all trashy looking .... I'm really fucking nervous. Also I need to poop and Kat is moving her stuff out right now so I'm kind of avoiding the apartment cuz I'm a jerk like that. I'll probably go to Wal-Mart after this and wander around aimlessly. I need to pick up some gray tights for my outfit anyway. I also need to either take the polish off my nails or re-do them cuz they're all chipped and crappy looking. I also need to injest something. Probably a protein shake. I also need to weigh myself after I get some alone time in the bathroom.

12:46 and I still haven't eaten but my hair is done and I've picked up tights from Wal-Mart.  Time to weigh in I think .... 211.8 Alright. Could be worse aftoer a night of drinking and sitting around. I'm ok with this number for today.

240 calories for lunch and a small bowl of that white cheddar popcorn for a snack. Lots of wiggle room for dinner this evening. Ok. Polish removed. Time to shower and re-polish. Then hair and make up. I have about 2 and a half hours.

Alright. I wish I could take full body shots but my phone camera is awkward to manipulate. So here's an awkward body shot. But only of my top half and my makeup/hair.

Here we go
Wish me luck

Mega drop

Thursday morning I weighed 211.7
Sunday morning I'm at 212.2 after drinking a few last night and having 2 ridiculously large pieces of lasgna for dinner. Mmmm I made it myself from scratch! (picture below)

I'm going to guess that 217 for a couple days was poop and water retention. Or maybe 211 was an illusion. Maybe it's all a lie  . . .

Knowing how many calories I've eaten feels soooooo good. And logging everything forces me to evaluate my choices. No more blindly shoving food in my face.  I'm honestly surprised I didn't balloon up to 225 with the crap I was eating. And I was trying not to feel guilty about it... so I just ignored my little voice that said "don't put that in your mouth"

I didn't count calories completely on Friday but I still tracked what I ate and thought about it. Mike asked me out for dinner and a movie on Friday :D tehe. I had a philly cheese melt with a side of honey dill carrots. We watched the hobbit and cuddled. He referred to himself as my boyfriend at least once when I was telling him about Corey bragging about all the boobs in his face at the bar. Mike was like "what, was he trying to make tou jealous?  You shoulda bragged about how much you're getting laid... or told him if he doesn't shut up you'll get your boyfriend to come over there". Lol.Cute. He's finally gotten into a habit of texting with me everyday. And he usually texts me good night before he goes to bed.

Saturday morning (ish) lol. Mike and I went for brunch. His buddy Layton and his room mate joined us. This has happened once before. But the first time we were dating and we were barely talking between randomly seeing each other and we certainly were not making any plans together at that point. It was awkward. This time was not. I felt like i belonged. Mmmmm. I like him being my boyfriend. Like really like it.They dropped me off so they could go help a friend move and he looked like he wanted to kiss me when I got out but wasn't sure and I didn't want to embarrass him in front of his man friends so I didn't.Cleaned my car, inside and out, then made this delicious lasagna!

 

Mike is getting half of it. I'm bringing it to him for supper tonight. What a great girlfriend I am. :)

Went out last night for Kat's birthday. Apparently she actually is moving out this week..... *fingers crossed* that she actually does it. This is how I did my hair and makeup. I think this is how I will do for Easter dinner next weekend, when I meet Mike's family. Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee. hhahaha. i'm more than a little nervous.

 

 

PS. I am all caught up on my blog reading!!!

Love y'all

Wednesday eaaaarly up

217.4 this morning. Da fuck? Moved my scale a little further back to where it usually sits and got 216.4

Food injested screenshot is below!

I downloaded my fitness pal onto my phone. If you have it and you want to add me, my user name is nerdy_ness. Get it?  Like nerdiness but with my name. I'm going to track calories through that. Soooo much easier than writing it down on paper.

I did it!  I got up early enough to get to adult swim time before getting ready for work. To be fair I really only got out of bed because they were clearing snow/ice from in front of my apartment and I could hear the blades scraping the pavement. There was no way I could sleep through that even though I'd snoozed my way through 20 minutes of alarm clock already.  But who cares why I went. The important thing is that I went. I swam for 25 minutes and the essentially got bored. Lap swimming is boring without a buddy. I didn't swim the whole time. I ran the shallow end then swam the deep end.

Tonight was opening night of The Importance of being Earnest. It didn't go horribly!!! There was something in my eye the whole time.... but I managed to fight it. I got a lot of positive feedback. My friend Julian said he didn't even recognize me, and his dad said he kept wanting to see more of me! Hoorah! I'm awesome. Right. .... Still waiting for a call to interview for one of the open jobs for next year..... People have been called and interviewed already. For Fuck Sakes. I'm a fantastic teacher. Everyone tells me so. EA's are always super impressed. Teachers request me all the time. WTF. How do I get a fucking job in this town? 

.... moment of rage over. Hoping to see another decline on the scale tomorrow morning. 10 days until I meet the whole fam jam for Easter dinner. I can do this.
