Why the hell was there a lizard in my kitchen?

Alright, so today my intake sucked. I had a slice of pizza for lunch and for dinner, a salad, 2 small pieces of cod. But the bad part? My mom made these tortillas fried in oil, and then covered and sprinkled with sugar and cinnamon. I had 2. They arent that big, but still. Anyway, in the afternoon, my younger sister and i made pelmeny (dumplings). The rentals took a day trip to Napa, so we were alone. When we were rolling the dough, i spotted a weird brown thing on on the floor. My sister looked and we both started screaming like banshees and jumped on the table. My older sister, Shai ( I have 3 sisters, just a lil' fact) came running down to the kitchen. We tried to decide what to do, and she suggested to whack it with a pan...Shai's not the brightest bulb in the box, let me tell you. We ended up sweeping it outside, but it was one of the scariest moments of my life. i even cried. I mean, California isn't like Florida, where you wake up to get your morning cup of joe, just to find a mother fucking alligator in your kitchen, sippin' your OJ. Floridians would be like "Oh hey Steve, hows the Mrs.?". We're city girls. We don't have lizards around here.

Ok, so i binged a little.

The rents decided to get pizza for dinner after my sisters asked and there was no way to get out of it. It was delicious, but i'm disappointed in myself for breaking down and having some. Luckily, i didn't have much for lunch. Even worse, mom decided she might take us girls down to monterey for a day out. Every time we go, we always get clam chowder at this famous restaurant on the wharf.  I was like FUCK. Chowder isnt exactly the healthiest and lightest thing to eat, ya know? I guess I'll just cross my fingers and hope she changes her mind! Here's what i had today:
Breakfast: A nectarine? not sure what it was, but it seemed edible. Tasted like shit, oh well. 60 cals?
Lunch: Half a piece of bread with a teaspoon of jelly, teaspoon of the skippy(YUM). 60-80 cals
Dinner: 3 small slices of thin crust pizza. On the bright side, it was thin crust. dont judge me! haha 400 cals or under
A full blown binge for me is about 800-1000 calories, since around 300-400 cals is my daily standard.
Here's a short thinspo:






Nice Legs, right? Hopefully someday...;)

A great way to get your metabolism going.

At the beginning of the year, a friend told me about this simple exercise you can do to increase metabolism. It really does work! It's called height training. Basically what you do is sprint (or some other task like jumping, except you do it as fast as you can) for 20 seconds, then you rest for ten. Repeat it 7 more times. i know it sounds pretty simple, but i usually feel dead by the 5th set. Apparently it increases your metabolism 30% for the whole day. Its challenging, but doable. Why wouldn't you do anything in your power to keep those calories burning all day?

I Salute You.

Today wasnt awful, but it wasnt great either. The local Borders is closing down, so i went to get some new stuff. The moms bought 3 cookbooks...fantastic. Actually, sometimes i enjoy looking at cooking shows or books, because half of the appeal of food is the way it looks.A Really delicious curry i found at the middle eastern market for dinner. Kefta meatballs in the curry over rice. I had 3 medium meatballs and in total, maybe a cup of rice. About 150 cals at lunch.. So it was under 800, but im not sure about 500. I didnt do any snacking today, no fruit or bars, so i dont have to worry about that. Tomorrow i think ill make flavored ice cubes, it's my new addiction! Anyways, the point of this is to salute any ana girls who have the willpower to stick to diets, you are literally AMAZING. I will write songs about you. It is SO hard to constantly fight the mental battle. Im pathetic compared to you! In your honor, im going to fight hard not to over-eat tomorrow! I CAN DO THIS!
