Day 2...Creepin' Along



Hey there,

Boy do I wish these were real, and came from outside....

These are my favorite, and yes they're quite fake because it is in the TEENS outside temp-wise here in the glorious Midwest.  

Yesterday progressed pretty well.

Workouts at home still count!!!




These are the snacks that I take with me, and they last me separated into 4 small meals over the course of my shift and commute. This might get a little boring to you after awhile, but if you look closely, they're each just a little different. After I start my Master Plan (insert random finger tinkering, evil laughter and mysterious eyebrow movement), I will no longer post every single day my snacks. Some of my more interesting meals for sure, but for now, I gotta keep track! So daily food pics it is!



This is not me counting calories. This is me taking a look at the protein in the veggie breakfast sausages I ate for the past 2 days. Sometimes I can't believe that it's not really meat because they taste so good. They have way less fat and calories, and give me a really good dose of protein with my breakfast. I am trying to incorporate protein into every small meal that I eat during my day. It's supposed to help you stay full longer....not that I really need a long period of time, since I eat pretty much every 3 hours that I am awake like clockwork. 


Just some yummy lower calorie cereal on sale. Had to try. I think if no one saw, and the sugar and carbs weren't so bad on most cereals, I could eat it daily like all day maybe everyday forever....maybe. 



When I got home in the morning after my shift was done (thank the heavens), I had this yum yummy breakfast. The cereal was pretty good. Very light and vanilla-ee (or however you'd like to spell that).

I have expressed before on here how I have a hard time with the  people around me, such as co-workers and family who are not following any sort of healthy lifestyle diet and exercise plan whatsoever. I recently had a co-worker literally wave chocolate under my nose to entice me to eat a piece. Good thing I am not really achocolate person. I really would have rather slapped her pushed her hand away and politely told her not to do it again. I instead sat there burning on the inside from the containment of my anger while she laughed hysterically at her own stupid joke. Well my friends, when you don't make your point across well enough the first time, people tend to repeat their idiotness thinking it will be just as freaking hilarious as it was the first time. Unfortunately it was even less funny the second time she did it. Almost as unfunny as how she goes on and on every week about feeling "thinner" or "fatter" by a mere one or two pounds from all the garbage she ate over the weekend, all the while sipping a full blown, not diet coke, eating her chocolate bar and weighing 130lbs after having 2 kids.  Working with her is very hard sometimes. People, people, people....can't live with 'em, and you most certainly sometimes wish you were here living without 'em. I just had to get that off my chest. 

Anyways, I better get off here before I stay awake too long like I did yesterday. Gotta get rested! It's a gym day! 

Thanks for reading,

  4. Try not to let your co-worker get to you. However, you are allowed to tell her to mind her business.
