SOOOOO COOOOLLLLLDDDDD!!! Actual temperature is -17 right now. Windchill is -35!!!!! And I have to walk about 1/2 mile to class and back in this!! THREE TIMES!! Its no wonder I'm losing weight!! Just to keep my body warm is taking a lot of calories!!
By the way, I've decided that I'm not going to worry about getting in extra exercise on the days I have school. I just don't have time and I already walk a lot on those days. So I'm not going to stress about it - and just concentrate on school on those days.
Speaking of stressing - I'm really freaking out!!! How do people make it through graduate school????? I have so much homework. I shouldn't even be on here - but I can't help it!! I'm FS addicted! Plus, the stress of the bartending job is now weighing on me heavier - I have to work this evening and I woke up this morning with a pit in my stomache about work. I mean - I don't go to work until 6pm and I'm already dreading it!!! I can't live like this. I'm going to have to do SOMETHING to resolve the conflict with my boss. She is so different - I just don't even know how to address this. I mean, the woman throws FITS!! Who does that in a work relationship? I am usually pretty good at dealing with conflicts at work, but this one is just WAY OUT of the ballfield. I have no idea how to address her. But I'm going to have to figure it out soon because I can't live like this!!!
Which leads to my little "binge" last night. You know how Dr. Atkins encourages you to eat every 3-4 hours???? Well, there's a reason behind that. I had a night class last night and I didn't eat before I went. So I ate something at about 2pm, and then I had class at 5pm and didn't get out until 8pm. Because it was so DEATHLY cold, I decided that I needed to go to the store, too. I needed eggs for this morning and I wanted something fast for dinner. Thought maybe I could find some soup or something. So I bought this AWFUL chicken soup - it really was! - and then I reached for a slice of cheesecake. I really wanted that. Then, I thought, "NO!" I don't want to ruin a good week. I'll buy a legal treat. So I put it back, bought some sugar free pudding, some sugar free whipping cream, some sugar free ice cream and about four other "treats". So I get home and I had one of everything - and two ice cream treats. And because the soup was awful, I only had about 1/2 bowl. I felt DESPERATE as I scarfed down those treats. Although everything was sugar free, it still was not good for me to have all that sugar substitute and I never really had anything good for me after 2pm. I think its a little stress related!!! (do ya think???!!!) Oh, and I forgot the eggs!!
So I'm going to try to make sure I eat every few hours today. I hope that will prevent a binge!!!
Have a good day everyone!!! Whew.....I'm exhausted after this journal!!!

I know, I shouldn't have bacon the day before a weigh in day on the challenge!!! But it needed to be used....and I forgot to buy eggs, etc, etc. I'll just have to drink lots of water for the rest of the day!!!!
