I have been SO SICK for the past week or so. Terrible sore throat, clogged sinuses, no voice, achey joints. Aside from working about a billion hours, I haven't really done anything. Which is probably why I still haven't lost anything. Well, it's the new year, and it's time to change a few things. 1. Gym - AT LEAST three days a week, AT LEAST an hour each time. 30-50 minutes vigorous cardio (elliptical, probably), followed by 20-30 minutes of strength (have to start building up for Rugby!), followed by another 20-30 minutes of moderate cardio + cool down. All together, 70-110 minutes, every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. No exceptions. 2. No soda. I will only be drinking water, tea (green or black, unsweetened), coffee (200 calories at most, since it's my weakness), and hard alcohol. The empty calories just aren't worth the trouble. 3. Green tea pills and multivitamins as often as possible. 4. No scale for periods of three weeks. Work on body image, not on body weight. 5. Skip meat twice a week (not on gym days). Get protein from other sources and supplements. 6. Eat at least three times a day, starting right after waking up. No eating past 7PM unless it's a late meal and is completely unavoidable. No more than 550 calories a meal, no more than 1300 net calories a day. 7. Have sex at least twice a week (meaning two different days, not, like, one "encounter" after another). Because, seriously, sex is the best stress reducer. I've felt like a completely different person over this entire break because Alex and I haven't been able to do the deed at all. We've seriously had sex once since December 16th. It's killing me. To Do - 1/10-1/15 - Buy green tea pills (anyone know of a good brand?) - Start running again - Save all paychecks / tips - Deposit all paychecks / tips - Make appointment for sports physical, fax paperwork to ECSU - Clean closet - Find glasses - 200 crunches, 40 leg lifts, 15 squats a day - have mouth guard made (sparkly. Because I'm already going to fuck shit up, why not make it sparkly?) - Shopping with Lisa - Fucking have sex because this shit is getting ridiculous - Organize everything for Saturday's trip to NYC There's probably more, but I'm kind of beat and can't think of it right now. I have worked 22 hours over the past three days. 'Nother 8 tomorrow (7-3, I fucking hate my life), followed by a day off on Wednesday, then two four hour shifts Thursday and Friday, during which, I have to complete a 9 hour online training course required of all Dunkin Donuts employees. FFFFUUUUUU-. Saturday, Alex and I are going into the city to see the American Idiot broadway show, courtesy of my parents (they got us train tickets and show tickets for Christmas, how sick is that?!). I feel like there was more I wanted to say, but I don't even fucking remember. I'm kind of obsessing over the New Zealand All Blacks' Haka right now. Look it up. It's soo fucking sick.
