I'm On A Healthy Streak

Another day without a major mess up! I went over my calorie goal of 1200 and ate 1320, but I didn't binge and everything I ate was healthy so I'm not going to let myself get worked up about it. And I finally got the car today and made good use of it by spending 2 hours at the gym! I ran on the treadmill for an hour (although I had to switch machines halfway through because of the 30 minute time limit) and then I spent 30 minutes biking, 20 minutes on the stairclimber and 10 minutes of the rowing machine. In total I burned 600 calories!! It definitely made up for the extra 120 calories I ate.

4 days till I'm back to school. I'm a little bit less excited about going back because my school's gym is super sucky and my gym at home is really nice. The gym at school has 5 treadmills, 5 elliptical machines, 3 stairclimbers and a rowing machine. The weird thing is they have like 20 bikes and hardly anyone uses them. They also have a really shitty circuit, it's super crowded and the weight area is completely dominated by super hot guys and it's really intimidating. I'm not that big on using weights, but you have to walk through the weight section to get to the stretching place. It's awkward. I'm always super sweaty and gross from doing cardio and then I have to walk through there! Ugh I hate it. My gym at home is so nice. It's not that busy, and it has so many cardio machines and an awesome circuit and the weight section isn't intimidating at all. Plus the equipments really new, and the only bad part about this gym is that they buy new equipment every year and it takes me a little while to get used to it. I wish I could take my gym with me!!

Good luck everyone!

Just finished reading all your posts and I just love your blog. I totally understand what you mean about always feeling guilty when eating in a restaurant, although now I always feel guilty eating wherever I am.

Totally supporting you in your goals.
