Holy Snow Storm!
I wake up this morning to a ridiculous storm. I don’t know where it came from but it needs to go somewhere else. Last year in Oswego we received record-making snow and I don’t want that this year. It’s depressing.
So I know I was supposed to start my diet but it didn’t happen! College can really get to you. The food here is horrible and living on your own in your own apartment, groceries get so expensive! Well anyway, I’m going home tomorrow for about a month and a half and I figured I can start then because I know my mom is going to cry when she sees how fat I’ve gotten - which means I will be eating what she feeds me. Once I get into the swing of things there, I figure I can continue at college. I’m also going to try and talk her into giving me weekly grocery money so I can buy my own food - that would help a lot.
If you read my blog from last night, you will know what kind of state I was in - pretty much a wreck. Well, I read it over this morning and it just made me ball aka cry my eyes out again! I showed it to my mom and she cried as well. She sent it in to some talk show - she wouldn’t tell me which - thinking I will get on there because of what I wrote. Ha, me on TV? It’s my dream but I doubt that will happen! My mom is a dreamer, maybe I should jump on her train!
Anyway, I am going to continue watching Shear Genius on Bravo and then it’s pilates time for this girl. Write again tomorrow!!
We are all in the same boat, or have been. It is just to easy to let things get out of control. Just find you a simple plan… lots of veggies, lean protein, watch cheese, beware sugary drinks, watch the white breads, rice, potatoes. Eat at least a couple of fruits a day. My grandson tells me he can hardly bear the same bad food, over and over at college. He buys fruit and vegs. and keeps in small refrig. in dorm room. AFTER he gained about 25 lbs. the first three years at school. Hope he is sticking with his plan. Should see him next week. Will keep my mouth shut unless he says something. Been there and someone nagging sure doesn’t help. Hugs, Marge
It’s good that your mom is supporting you. Maybe you can set up something with her where she checks up on you. I know doesn’t sound like fun but sometimes having someone hold us accountable is for the best. of course, we’ll help hold you accountable. Cheaper to eat at home then eat out. Good luck! Enjoy your time at home.
