I spent time last night with my new "friend" and behaved quite well on my eating habits! I also talked to him about how I am wanting to eat better and run more, etc. and he is super supportive. And to be completely honest, if we go out, I want him to be proud of who he is out with. Not that he isn't now, I just want to feel good standing next him.
Had Slimfast again for breakfast and am currently eating french onion soup for lunch. Bistro got me. Whatever, it's fairly healthy.

Feeling Like a Kewpie Doll
No Seriously.
I feel like a Kewpie Doll.
I hop out of the shower and I look in the mirror and my tummy is WAY too round and my legs do indeed look like the Michelin Man.
I cried a little last night after hopping out of the shower. 2 and a half years ago I decided I was much too fat and over the course of 8 months, I lost 40 pounds. And I felt good. Over the past year, I gained 27 of those 40 pounds back and I feel awful. My BMI is 29.6. Do you know that is .4 away from being obese?
I'm 13 pounds away from where I was at my heaviest and I NEVER want to be there again. So, I sat down last night after putting on tons of clothes, and wrote down what I wanted to do.
1.) Lose 37 pounds.
2.) Get back to running and be able to run a 5k again. (I know that is not a big deal for most, but running over 3 miles without stopping is huge for me. I didn't event do that in high school and I was doing this a year and a half ago)
3.) Eat better. Since I came to my new job just 2 months ago, I've gained like 10 pounds. I don't run around nearly as much as I used to at the winery and the Bistro we have inhouse is a 70% discount. 70%! I need to bring my own food.
Today I started. I had Slim Fast for breakfast, chicken soup and an apple for lunch, and well dinner is going to be a problem. I recently started seeing someone and he is an excellent cook. I just need to remind myself, portion control. I figure if I do well and run like I should, I can eat with him a couple times a week and be just fine.
So here we go. Day 1. I can't take being/looking like this.
