Too much going on.

What I ate today:

  1. Breakfast Smoothie, 480 calories. This smoothie is so damn delicious. Like, I don't mind making one of these every morning. I will probably throw chia seeds in there once I buy them today. The more I read about them the more amazing they seem.
  2. Popcorn, 240 calories
  3. Weight Loss Smoothie, 300 calories. I went to a store called Health Hut and got Chia Seeds, which was one of the ingredients in this smoothie. You can only find them in health food stores. They don't have a flavor but they're super nutritious. This smoothie isn't AS good as the breakfast one, but it's not too bad. It calls for Chia seeds, half of a banana, a scoop of protein powder, a cup of frozen berries, and milk. 
  4. York Pieces, 200 calories. I grab a few here and there, which by the end of the day equal a serving.

Total: 1,265 calories (I added 45 calories for the other half of the banana from my Weight Loss smoothie)

I weighed myself this morning. Didn't like the number. But I'm also on my period, which I know causes me to gain several pounds unfairly. I do need to incorporate working out into my routine to really drop the pounds, but I'm trying to work on decluttering my life first.


I also decided once I run out of ingredients for the smoothies I shopped for the other day, I'm going to do the Dr. Oz 3 Day Detox Cleanse. My mom told me about it, and I think it would be a good thing to do right after Thanksgiving (because I won't be having smoothies on Thanksgiving). 

For the first time in awhile, I had an anxiety attack as I tried to go to sleep about my dad. I guess it was because we were talking about my brother having one when he got back up to school. I started remembering the images that cause me to have anxiety attacks: seeing him scared before he was wheeled into the OR, seeing him all hooked up in ICU after the surgery, etc. He is a living miracle and I am overwhelmed with gratitude for God giving my dad a second life. But I still get anxiety thinking about Hell Week. Despite it all being over.

Albums I listened to today:

    

In case the images are broken:
  1. Justin Bieber - Believe
  2. Mumford & Sons - Babel
  3. Stevie Wonder - Number Ones
  4. Muse - The 2nd Law

Foodstuffs.

Foods consumed today:

  1. Breakfast Smoothie - 480 calories (Very filling!)
  2. Handful of York Pieces, 200 calories (Oops.)
  3. Low Carb Smoothie - 210 calories
  4. Chilean Sea Bass with steamed broccoli and Au Gratin potatoes at Bonefish Grill (unknown)

I am the smoothie queen now. I practically want to drink all of my meals. The smoothies I'm trying now are from one particular website. Will look into other smoothie recipes that incorporate vegetables and different ingredients in them once I run out of these ingredients (because my grocery bill was pricey last night!)
