Day 5
After today I will be halfway through my 10 day under 1000 cal crunch. I will have one big cheat day (to help spike my metabolism) when it’s over, then another week of under 1000 cal.
My weight FINALLY went down today… the fact that I’m doing this while I’m PMSing is making me frustrated because my weight isn’t going down even though I’m barely eating and exercising like crazy. Seriously. Monday I ran 2 miles and went to the gym and did abs, Tuesday I didn’t have time to work out, and yesterday I burned over 300cal on the elliptical. This morning I already ran another 2 miles and I’m going to the gym tonight for chest, back, and triceps. Tomorrow is a 4 mile run, although I MAY put it off until Saturday because of the humidity around here…it’s supposed to finally break this weekend. This morning I went out at 7:30am and while it wasn’t too hot I felt like I was actually moving through the air it was so thick. Ew.
In other news, 4 of my 5 platy fish in my big tank are dead due to an internal parasitic infection that just showed up Tuesday morning. I think my clown pleco in that tank is still doing ok (last time I check he was alive and fine), but I have no hope for the last platy. **sigh** I went from a 6 fish healthy tank to a 2 fish sick sick sick tank. Fuck.
At least my little tank seems to be doing ok **knocks on wood** I should be able to get a betta in there when I come back from Alaska.
Oh yeah. I’m going to Alaska for a week with the family from like July 27-August 3 or something. Exactly a month away. I’m hoping, since it’s a cruise, that I will still be able to work out a lot on the ship. I know that on one of our explore Alaska days we are doing rock climbing, repelling, and zip lining so that will be good exercise. I’m half looking forward to this trip because I’m excited to do cool things in Alaska, but I’m also not looking forward to it because there are a lot of other things I’d like to do with my vacation time/I won’t be able to smoke at all/my options for food are going to probably be more high calorie. I guess I have a month to figure out how to fall asleep without weed. Maybe I’ll just stock up on ZzzQuil.

Girl you are kicking ass. Keep up the good work. Makes me want to go to the gym.
A cruise sounds so fun! I’ve never been on one. It sounds like there are obstacles in the way but surely it’ll be lots of fun, and you’ll have opportunities to burn whatever high-cal food they’ll be serving. Have a good rest of your day.
@A_bunch_of_nothing – Thanks! I didn’t do so great yesterday after I posted (280 over) but I am trying. And I have never been on a cruise before either so I have no idea what to expect!
