willpower-less

-
Today I munched on pineapples with blueberries, had some brown rice with soup, and then munched on a bag of hot cheetos..

Looking at that from a keto/low carb aspect, I totally failed.
:(
I don't think I ate excessively, however my body is filled with guilt and now I am chugging water to try to wash everything out. I don't think this feeling of shame and disgust is healthy but I'm trying to approach my reprehension with calm and maturity. I remind myself that majority of the time I eat relatively clean and healthy with whole ingredients. And that my dietary setback at least gave me a moment of satisfaction but a sense of resilience to practice more willpower next time.

Chips are my kryptonite xD don't ever share chips with me. Their air-like sustenance don't satisfy me enough to let me know enough is enough. That "last chip" really should be your last one Diana! "just one more handful"....

But it's ok. One snacking and indulging a little bit won't put a number on me, especially since I eat healthy and exercise regularly.
To make you feel better and recover from a little binge:

  • Drink a lot of water. Yes you will be slightly bloated. But I think since I had a higher intake of salt, drinking more water will help me flush out the salts and also my body will not have a need to hold onto the "limited" water (if I didn't drink excessive water)
  • he he a little secret. Fiber. Or more specifically Metamucil. I don't use this too much. I think people can start relying on Metamucil to help them with constipation, and when you stop taking it your body might have trouble due to dependency. (just eat more veggies!). However, this is a quick 'cheat' added to my normal intake of fiber. o:) 
And here's a picture to entertain you for reading a wordy post 8)
I was doing HIIT with box jumps when a horde of asian mothers came into the cardio room to get ready for their Zumba class. Apparently it was also someone's birthday and they were celebrating it Zumba style. They were nice enough to 'invite' me and let me take a party hat and shades ^_^

haha wow today I spent quite a bit of time on Pinterest organizing my old likes and boards. It's one of those sites that really suck up your time because you invested so many things you want to save for a future project or for your future in general. But the one disadvantage is that I've collected so many things that I pinned to look at later, which I have forgotten. I want to kind of get into a habit of looking back at them (while not wasting too much time) and bringing them out into action. Monday Breakfast: Banana, cinnamon, honey Lunch: Chopped Thai chicken salad   http://pinchofyum.com/chopped-thai-chicken-salad Dinner: Chicken, egg, cranberries, apples, nuts, onions, greek yogurt salad eat with veggies Tuesday Breakfast: Omelette wrap omelette wrap Lunch: salmon with yu choy inspirations..

One thing good about having gone to a small private school was that... everyone knew of each other, or at least recognized their faces. Obviously, that could also be a huge disadvantage. But being an alumni means that we have this small yet strong connection of 'networking' and when you bump into someone from your school, it's not that strange to hang out with each other even though back in school the only contact we might've had was taking a course together or bumping into each other at a social gathering. Well that isn't really the case here because I'm close to these awesome ladies here and Mr. Canada (let's call him that) was my ex-roommate's big so we're all interconnected and I have fond, fun memories with him from my undergrad years. hokay.. that was a slight tangent, my bad FRIDAY Anyways, I haven't seen Anabelle and Lexi in a while so through their beckoning I answered their call and sang/drove my way down to SD. I first meet up
