I associate my current job with boredom and I associate boredom with chocolate covered almonds. 5 months ago

Therefore I associate my current job with chocolate covered almonds.
Maybe I wouldn’t eat them so much if there wasn’t a 25¢ dispenser of them in the lunchroom?
Maybe it wouldn’t be so bad by not brining money, if I didn’t know a certain co-worker who is away for the summer that has an unlocked desk full of change that I could borrow from?
I don’t know, but I’ve already eaten about $1.50 worth of chocolate covered almonds today and it’s only noon.



Exercise REALLY helps. 9 months ago

I think I’m finally starting to get back on track a bit. I’m not feeling as much like I want to eat all the time anymore. I went running yesterday morning and I think that helped a lot, and even though I went running AND boxing a few days before and still went overboard the next day, I feel that this time I’ll be good. Another thing that I think helped was last night I went to a protein workshop and it was very informative. I learned how much protein I really need to have in my diet (for me, 75 grams most days, more if I am more active) and we talked about other sort of dietary needs. Even though I had been researching on my own it was good to have someone actually in front of me talking about it and being able to ask questions. It was a real eye opener.
I walked by our lunch room at work today and someone had brought in fudge. This was after I ate my lunch already mind you, so yes, I so did take a piece, BUT when I took it back to my desk I didn’t want to eat it because I still felt full from lunch so I brought it back to my lunch bag in the fridge and I’m saving it for later. Yay!
Anyway, I guess I’ll have to wait and see where it goes from here.



This entire past week.. 9 months ago

have been disgusting for this. I’m full but I can’t stop eating. I don’t understand it. I need to get back on track!! I was doing really well for eating healthy and eating fair portion sizes but I just don’t understand how this whole past week (except one day where I ran and went boxing) I have just been eating like crazy. I suppose the exercise helps me not eat more than I should but there’s definitely something else that’s making me do it and I want to stop!
