Hey 

AGGGHHHH 

 

This week has already been exhausting and it's only Wednesday 

Oh Boy. 

 

I need to go work on some other things after writing this first (may work out first, I'm trying to decide what to do) 

Anyways, I just wanted to put down some dates so that SOMETHING gets accomplished today.

Okay, I think I'll eat some oatmeal and work out, I think I'll feel better about what I need to tackle and about myself in general. Like I said, it's been a tough week. 

 

Let's do this.

UPDATE: Just about to go and have a shower. This latest art project is taking a toll on my mind though. I'm so scared to do it, and I'm so concerned I will run out of time. Well, it will get done one way or another.

Wowee 

Another crazy week gone by. 

I'm only 2 days away from keeping track of my daily life for a full month. I can't wait to see the results! I'm not sure I hit 80% on everything but we will see! 

 

Okay, I'm going to attempt to record the past few days I missed.

After this workout today I will earn my loot for doing consistent workouts over the month (a t-shirt that has a design made by my friend on it). I'm going to wash it and wear it with pride today :) 

 

Let's go!

Hello... 

It's currently 2am and my mind won't shut up. 

I've got so much crap to do, and so much happening in the next while. It's infuriating. I'm feeling so depressed and apathetic that I just do nothing. My grades are slipping and so is my sanity. I just can't handle this. I have still been working out so that's good at least but I have been eating lots of garbage. I have work at 5am and I desperately do not want to go. I just feel angry and disappointed in myself all the time. I feel so useless and pathetic. I don't know what I want, I want to run away but at the same time i don't. I was so productive and on top of things and now I'm just not... what happened?

 

Anyways.

I'm going to keep this short because I am very tired. I just started taking Sertraline and I am FEELING IT today. Very drowsy, a restless night's sleep, dizziness, nausea... lots of fun. 

 

I have been consistent with my workouts and did all three last week. I just finished 3C just now. 

My diet however has been AWFUL, but it's almost the end of school and I'm having trouble finding other coping methods. Maybe now that I'm taking meds I won't be as inclined to eat sugar. I've heard Sertraline decreases your appetite so maybe.

Oh boy it's been a while. 

 

Oh well! I'm back now.

Breakfast: Buddha bowl with tofu from Freshii, a green smoothie from Freshii

Lunch: Rest of the Buddha bowl, a pb protein smoothie from Jugo Juice

Dinner: Lipton chicken noodle soup with a bowl of guacamole flavoured chips

 

Workout done for today: Done!

 

That's all I'll be recording for now! I honestly don't know why I was so obsessed with recording every other thing in my life... I've learned that just stresses me out more than anything. I may not be consistent with everything, but I definitely want to make my workouts and healthy eating a priority.

Oh man, it's been AGES since I've been on here but. I want to get back into the workout game again. 

 

A lot has changed in the last 5 years.  

 

I want to start out simple by doing workouts and recording my food log. I'm not too worried about my nutrition but, I am trying to focus on not eating out as much as possible, mostly because of financial reasons more than anything.  

 

I'll be starting off my workout journey again by doing Bodyweight workout 3A after having some water and a protein bar in the morning. 

 

Maybe I'll talk about life here too but idk, we'll see. 

 

Anyways, good to be back.

What up y'all! It's your boi 

 

So, I followed through on what I said and did Bodyweight Workout 3A today. 

It didn't go to badly but I did have to modify some exercises just because I felt some pain in my body.  I am very grateful that we have a little home gym area in the basement and that I don't have to go to the gym OR pay for a membership anymore.  After stretching after my workout I strapped on some boxing gloves and punched the crap out of a punching bag until I felt tired.  

Overall I feel good, and I'm even looking forward to the next workout, which doesn't happen often for me. 

 

Here's my Food Log so far 

Pre-workout: Protein bar and some water 

Post-workout: Curry tomato chicken with rice, a glass of milk, and a small cup of black coffee 

Lunch: Nothing whoops

Dinner: Bowl of Munchies and a can of Pepsi

 

My arms already feel tired so I know I'll be sore tomorrow. Luckily that's what A535 is for lol. 

 

My plan for tomorrow is to have a rest-day and do some walking. 

 

See you later everyone!

Aloha! 

 

Another day another post in the Battle Log 

 

So, as predicted, my body is HELLA sore. Although, I can still move around and walk relatively easily so, it's certainly not the sorest I've ever been. I am pretty tired today but, that's kinda normal for me. 

 

I said I wanted to do some walking today but my activity might be fulfilled by the housework I have to do today. I have about 4 flights of stairs in my house from basement to the top floor so, I'll be getting in my steps today for sure! I'll be sure to record how long I did that for too. 

 

After I post this, I'm going to get started on the laundry and then the dishes!  

 

I'm also gonna be making some pepper steak with rice tonight so that should be tasty!

 

Food Log 

Breakfast: Coffee and a Chocolate Chip CLIF Bar 

Lunch: Garlic sausage with cucumber, sliced tomatoes, and 3 triangles of Laughing Cow cheese. Also a pomegranate Italian soda half cut with water to drink  

Snack: A slice of chocolate cheescake with some coffee, and water

Snack: A key lime soda half cut with water to drink

Dinner:  Lemongrass chicken with rice, and water

 

Adiós!

Update: 

 

So it's been a very successful day! I've been cleaning my house for probably about 6-7 hours today so I've been moving A TON. The bathrooms look BEAUTIFUL now and the laundry is getting done! I also took out the garbage, emptied and loaded the dishwasher, and watered the plants. I even tackled the bath and shower drain and removed HUGE clogs of hair. I still want to get some things done before bed such as straightening out my office.   

 

I unfortunately did not make the pepper steak today but I plan to do that tomorrow! I HATE wasting food so that will be a priority. 

 

I have to work at my day-job tomorrow so I'm not looking forward to that. After a nap I'll be sure to knock out workout 3B however! 

 

Alrighty, time to do some more work.

Bonjour all 

 

Didn't post yesterday because I was hella busy and sleepy but getting back on track today! 

 

Here is the low down on yesterday:

 

February 15 

 

Food Log 

Breakfast: Egg white egg-bites with Avocado, and a Cold Brew Coffee with Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Foam from Starbucks  

Snack: Dark Chocolate and Cherry KIND bar

Lunch: Bowl of Munchies chips and some soda

Dinner: Pepper Steak with rice, and a glass of water

 

Additional Notes

I actually managed to make the Pepper Steak before the meat went bad in the fridge! I'm so proud of myself for that. It was about 10pm when I started cooking and I didn't finish till about 12am so it was a VERY late dinner. I had a 3 hour nap after work and just scrolled on my phone after because I was so tired from my day-job in the morning. I didn't do my workout but I was pretty active at work so, it counts for something I guess! 

 

and now today: 

 

February 16 

 

Food Log

Breakfast: Black coffee, and a piece of chocolate zucchini loaf

Lunch: Tall iced caramel macchiato, and a banana loaf from Starbucks 

Snack: A Grande black iced tea lemonade with no sweetener and light lemonade from Starbucks

Dinner: Spaghetti squash with sliced cucumbers, butter, and parmesan cheese, and a glass of milk

Snack: A very tiny amount of Munchies

 

Additional Notes

The messiness of my office has been stressing me the hell out, so I might do that before work instead of workout 3B today. I've also got some stuff to take care of in regards to a Design Commission I'm doing for a client so, I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment. I do have work in the evening  so, I will be moving around then. I REALLY do want to get my workout in before work but, I can only do so much. The DOMS has definitely set in now so I don't want to wait too long between workouts. 

 

Anyways, I gotta get going now. Hope y'all are having a good day 

 

Fluffy, out

Update: 

So I wasn't able to get my workout done before work but I know I'll for sure have time for it tomorrow morning. I'm pretty tired after work but I was moving my body a lot so at least I wasn't sedentary! I'm gonna play some games on my phone and then go to bed. Night night

Oh my god it's been a wild ride the last few days. 

 

My time out with my friend was lovely but I was busy with work the next two days and oh my god did I exhaust myself. I couldn't quite rest yet however since I had agreed to spend time with family after work on Monday, and also help out my mother on Tuesday. While it was rewarding to spend time with family and friends I have been pushing myself for a while and reallllly starting to feel the strain.  I was even supposed to visit with another friend today but (kinda thankfully) she needed to reschedule since she wasn't feeling the best. I have D&D with my friends tonight which is usually fun, but I'm so tired and stressed I honestly just want the night to myself. However, I tend to be the perpetual flake in my group and I hate disappointing my friends so I am pushing through and playing tonight. At least we are online so I can work on things while we play a bit. I am really starting to feel the burnout though. I still have so much to take care of and so many deadlines to meet that I can't rest quite yet. I recently had to pay a VERY large bill and... well let's just say I CANNOT afford to stop working. 

 

Things are tough but I know I can get through it. It's just really really hard. 

 

I can't really remember what I ate the last few days so I'll just record today's food: 

 

Food Log 

Breakfast: Black coffee, two slices of homemade buttermilk pie, and a handful of white-chocolate-covered kettle corn 

Lunch: Iced coffee with sugar, two eggs, and four hashbrowns

Dinner: Water, and a bowl of Munchies chips 

Snack: 2 slices of homemade buttermilk pie, and a cup of peppermint tea

 

As far as workouts go, still need to do 3B. I know everyone says they're busy but I, really am. I haven't had much time to myself let alone to workout. I HAVE been active however doing manual labour and chores so, at least I haven't been sitting too much. 

 

I'm just really, really tired. 

 

Hope y'all are having a good day 

 

Fluffy, out

Update: 

D&D went well and it was a fun session! I didn't have to do to much thinking which was nice. I also developed a plan for getting things done and put my priorities in a list format. I like lists they make me feel better. I have work early tomorrow so I'm going to head to sleep. Night night.

Another day, another update. 

 

Once again, I've been HELLA busy. I've been trying to front-load all of this work so I have time to really relax and enjoy some time off. It has certainly NOT been easy though, I am realllly starting to feel the mental fatigue, and my body is also beginning to protest by being sore and feeling generally sluggish. My mental health is doing the worst though. My partner said a valid criticism to me about something and I about lost it. I had to take some time to go to the basement and punch the shit out of the punching bag. I felt A LOT better after, but I was also disappointed I became so overwhelmed that it came to that point I needed to take my frustration out physically. One big part of my frustration has been how messy my office is. My office is my escape from everything and it being messy and chaotic has been driving me NUTS. I also have a deadline for a client that's been hovering over my head for about a week now and that has not helped my nerves in the least. I know once I get my office sorted out though, I'll be much more capable in doing my job. 

 

ANDDDDD I just got a text from my client wanting an update, GODDAMNIT!!!!!!!!!!!! A MOMENT OF PEACE PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!????????

 

ANYWAYS. On to food.

Hey all, 

 

Been a while and honestly? Things have been okay. Not good, not bad, just okay. 

 

After a surprise performance review at work I had a mental breakdown and am now taking a year-long LOA. However, besides what will we be paid out to me in vacation hours, I won't have another source of income. Sure, I have a job I work once every week or so but, it's not enough money to live on. So, I have to find another job. I'm so tired, so burnt out. I wish things were not like this but, reality still stands. I can do nothing but own my situation and work on it. As for the project for my client, that has been completed now so, yeah, that's good at least. 

 

I actually have been doing pretty well with eating meals at home. I am actually starting to prefer it. I have a few go-to's I can make when I can't think of anything else to eat so, having that plan in place helps a lot. I even made a meal plan and so far have been following it pretty well. I also read two books: The Subtle Art of Not Giving a Fuck, and How to Keep House While Drowning. Both very good books but, I liked How to Keep House While Drowning more.  I listened to them as audiobooks. I have found I really like audiobooks.

 

I want to get back into working out since, I feel like that will help my mood out a lot. I really want to get stronger and have my muscles visible. 

 

So, tomorrow, I'll be doing body workout 3B. The only reason I'm not doing it today is I am planning to fill most of my day with cleaning the house since we are having guests tomorrow. 

 

Food Log 

Breakfast: n/a (was sleeping) 

Lunch: Coffee, one sausage, some mixed veggies 

Dinner: 

Snacks:
