Holiday Blues

Jesus Christ, why can't holiday food come with a calorie count?
I have no idea what I ate on Thursday and I could really only estimate Friday.
Friday was just a big fat bust anyway.  My back spasmed all fucking night so I didn't sleep.  I ended up in the recliner around 7 am with an ice pack.  I took 8 ibuprofen and finally fell asleep.  Of course I had a hell of a gut ache later from all the pain killers I took.
I wore the BodyBugg all day and didn't even reach my calorie burn goal.  I fell about 400 calories short since I couldn't do anything.  The day before was great though, I was running around all day and burned 3600.
The BodyBugg battery is dying so I don't have it on right now.  I really want some horrible junk food, like McDonald's.  I can get some nuggets and fries and I'll be at 1760 calories consumed for the day.  I had some granola bars and rice crispie treats my mom made.  Those are surprisingly low in calories, FYI.
I'm assuming I want trash food since I'm miserable at work right now.  My back fucking hurts and I can't bend my head down or i get this horrible pain under my shoulder blade.  I'm goddamn tired and want to go home.
I'd opt for something better, like Subway, but I forgot to take my toothbrush home with me and haven't brushed my teeth in a couple days.  I've flossed and tried scrubbing them with my sleeve, but it's just not the same.
I'm taking a nap when I get home, but I should use my resistance bands when I wake up.  Get myself a nice leg workout. Since I've been out an about today I can only assume I'll hit my 3100 calorie burn average.
Whatever.

  1. Hang in there Tiff; I'm still so proud of you!! To be in all that pain, and saying you will nap and THEN use the resistance bands is amazing to me. You are an inspiration, and it's seeing you and your determination that keeps ME motivated. So, THANK YOU! .. and keep up the good work!
