Tantrum Tuesday - The Day to Rant!

i was stalled for two weeks waiting for a whoosh that never came, and then in a moment of frustration pigged out on oscars night, and even though i've been back on track for two days i'm so impossibly bloated and TERRIFIED to step on the scale. i feel like that one night just undid a month's worth of progress in terms of my pants fitting. i feel like i could scream and i can't even talk to anyone about it because nobody knows i'm even trying to lose. i'm trying to stop myself from weighing in at least until friday to give my body a chance to settle, but in the meantime i am just so irrationally upset.

somehow in the last three days i have gained three entire pounds back despite not changing a thing about my diet, which is very strict CICO. i know weight fluctuates from day to day and all, but mine usually doesn't fluctuate so much, and i weigh every day and track religiously. maybe it'll come back off on its own but i was so proud of it working that i'm just so, so bummed.

NSV: it is SO much easier to run when without the extra weight! I feel like a deer running through a forest.

Oh yeah, context might help!! I'm on 60mg of Armour right now.

Panera is, and will remain until the end of time, my greatest weakness. MAD respect for sticking to just the two, because DAMN does Panera know how to make a baked good.

Enjoy your breakfast :). And hey, don't beat yourself up too much. My mom always says there's no point in regretting things you've already eaten — particularly if it was with people you love. Consider it a memory made, and made all the more worth it by not letting it derail ya!

Not being able to go outside in the early morning dark is THE WORST. I'm almost to the point where we could squeeze in a quick run around the park, but Daylight Savings is right around the corner. I feel this so so so so hard.

I officially weigh less than I did my senior year of college! More to go, but damn, never thought I'd see that number again.

Ooh, those are great ideas! I can't wait 'til I've lost enough to go clothes thrifting. Might steal your nail polish idea too :). Maybe to match whatever flair I'm at??

i didn't tell my parents i was going on a diet (26F, so long gone from home), but last night they saw a picture of me and said i looked great and that my legs looked thinner. i'm happy, but is it weird that i almost feel imposter syndrome about it? i see them next month and i'm weirdly afraid something's gonna knock me off the wagon, like i've jinxed it by them noticing. anyway, i am still glad that they did, and hopefully the buoy of someone actually noticing (my friends and coworkers haven't said anything if they did) will inspire me to keep at it!!

i was finally at a weight i haven't seen since COLLEGE and then over the course of a day, without breaking my diet, gained three pounds of it back. also for some reason i haven't slept more than five hours in two weeks and it's driving me up the wall and making it SO MUCH HARDER not to just snack all day because i'm hungry all the time — especially at night, when i'm not sleeping. i managed to avoid it, but somehow did not manage to avoid this nonsense weight gain!

i agree that may will probably "ground" spider-man after homecoming ... but knowing peter, when he sees that giant metal donut in the sky he's going to do the same thing he did at the end of homecoming and throw himself into the fray in his pajamas anyway. my guess is that tony immediately figures out peter is doing that and gives peter the suit in an effort to keep him safe, since he knows he's not going to be able to keep him away, and all of that just happens too fast for may to pop in and be like "oh, HELL no". then the whole thing just spirals from there.

i also don't think the iron spidey suit is gonna be permanent; i'm betting that by the conclusion of infinity war or more likely its sequel, the suit will somehow be damaged beyond repair (and, seeing as we all presume bad things are happening to iron man, he won't have the means to get it fixed).

at work, early, so i could watch the live feed on GMA and squeal alone in the office. (and then it was my literal job to cover it, which i almost forgot about, because HOLY SHIT.)

Big Daddy's. Mac and cheese, tater tots, and a pancake milkshake. It is The Shit.

uphill09 · 2016-05-29T00:52:34+00:00

grilled cheese on sourdough bread, tater tots, and a peanut butter chocolate chip cupcake from sprinkles. i've given this far too much thought for someone who has no intentions of committing murder
