We’ll get to my stress eating in a minute, first let’s back it up to this morning. I had my first ChemII lab and quiz this morning and I was pretty nervous. I might have gotten in bed at 10pm last night (go me!) but I didn’t fall asleep for at least another 1.5hours. I wanted to do a bit of review in the car this morning so I made a nice portable smoothie –
1 frozen banana + frozen blackberries + Yoplait low fat Blackberry Yogurt + half scoop chocolate Amazing Grass + big pour light Chocolate Almond Breeze + small squeeze honey. Plus, it matched my outfit!
The quiz went pretty well and I finished my lab procedure quickly enough that I had time to finish up my lab report before noon. And I cracked away at some of my reading while I waited for Adam. An awesome morning. Until I drove home.
I HATE parking at our apartment! It’s not a matter of getting a close spot (I really don’t care, I’ll happily walk) it’s that we live on the business section so 95% of the parking is $$$. The areas that aren’t 1hour metered are filled with fire hydrants, drive ways, and other cars. Arrrrrrgh!!!!! I made 3 loops around the ‘hood to no avail. I parked at Walgreens for a bit and walked around to kill time, not once, but twice. Finally, 2loops after that, I found a spot that’s about a mile away from our apartment. And I’m not even all that comfortable with it, I’m pretty nervous about getting a ticket.
And I tell you that fun story to explain why lunch looked a bit like this –
You can go ahead and assume I finished off most of that GIANT bag of chips. Plus this –
Oh yes I am in training for a half marathon. Ha!
After my crapfest (and a looong phone call with one of my best friends, who I’ll be staying with in Orlando in a month actually) I feel a little better. I’d feel a lot better if I’d soothed my soul with some carrots but somethings just don’t work out.
When was the last time you ate your feelings? What’d you have and did you regret it
P.S. Not surprisingly I have a bit of a tummy ache! I’ll be back tomorrow.
