Yesterday I was on the road for far too long and didn't get a chance to blog. As you have probably already guessed I ate terribly. For lunch I had a Bean burrito enchilada style from this quaint little family run establishment that is praised for its burritos not only by locals. (It's called Rito's just in case you were wondering & it's in phoenix, Arizona on Garfield & 11th st I want to say..)
For dinner, at midnight mind you, I had a carne asada burrito from a random 24 hour burrito place; one of the many with the suffix burto's around. I usually don't eat Mexican food but for some reason yesterday it's all the people around me wanted to eat. Oh and I forgot to mention I had an ice cream cone from a soft serve truck before I ate “real food”.
Yesterday I did terrible with food, but I stayed optimistic and did a lot of walking. Having to plan a baby shower, bridal shower, bachelorette party and a birthday party leads to a lot of shopping with a lot of walking.. And hair pulling but that’s another story for another time.
So now that I’ve got you all caught up on the happenings of yesterday let us talk about today.
It’s 9:33am now and I’ve been in my forever long English class for thirty minutes, with a Grande caramel macchiato from Starbucks, my biggest weakness is by far coffee. Really good strong coffee can make me smile in the worst of times.
Today’s goal is to eat very moderately. 3 small meals and lots of water, I am today however attending a baby shower that will be catered by Macayo’s (I just can’t seem to get away from that darn Mexican food). So what am I to do when the hostess of this party insists I eat? Or when she hands me a slice of cake? Simply say no I’m on a diet? We all know that doesn’t work, we’ll just get a response like “I won’t tell” with a wink while the food is being shoved into our hands and the former barer of it wanders off with a smirk thinking she’s done nothing wrong. But in reality you now are in the middle of a show down between your want to not be rude and the commitment you made to yourself. Yup what am I going to do then? Take a couple of bites and let it go. =) somewhat of a win win situation although easier said than done.
And now of course there is Sunday, the day I am hosting a baby shower for my sister who is only semi appreciative so far but will be at my feet thanking me once the baby is here and she realizes how much she really needed this baby shower to help her get the things the baby needs. And of course the final get together before she’s too tired or too busy to find the time to attend a shindig. That baby shower is going to be awesome and equipped with the best looking cupcakes you have ever seen, but of course I will have to resist. Gah, even thinking about it is hard. But I must be optimistic. =D alright it is now 9:47am and I think I’ve strayed from my studies long enough, until next time.
(Currently listening to Creedence Clearwater Revivals have you ever seen the rain.)
