So I am back at school, six hours away from home where I no longer have a mother to grill my chicken haha just kidding I have been grilling it while I’m up here for 4 yrs now! So I know I’ve been a bad girl but not too bad. Miami was full of alcohol (for some reason I look 21 in Miami?!) haha But I made sure to at least work out everyday. Now back at school, already went out to Red lobster (that was bad), but like i’ve said in previous blogs no one forces the food down my throat and I am willing to pay for my consequences. It is frosh week and hey I am only young once. I am not going to get down on myself because I know how to eat properly and I have been eating pretty well during the day, in fact I ate clean all day today … with the risk of alcohol later … we shall see. I went to the gym today and lets just say I’ve always been more selfconcious at my school gym, so I had the baggy shorts thing going on, well today I just continued to wear my lululemons as per usual like I would at home and I swear I saw some guy do a double take through the mirror… it was too funny. But it was great for my self confidence since I’m used to being all shy there. Another thing I noticed are just all tiny girls around… I mean in the past I’ve seen maybe i’ll say 5 who have deep muscle/toning, so its always something to see their expressions toward me because I have a weights routine and I am willing to battle it out with the football team in the free weights section hahah. But I did miss that gym and have to get settled with the right amount of weights on these machines. Everywhere’s a little different! Monday my life will become a new routine with classes and such but I’ve already planned meals out and written out when I should be eating everyday. I plan to get up at the same time everyday even when I could sleep in, but I’d rather be in a routine… I am very routined. A lot of people do ask about my training, and to be honest, no one needs to worry about that… I am at the gym 5 days a week and jogging the other 2 days… I am very disciplined when it comes to the gym. I have been since I was 15 hahah I am just one of those people that needs to focus on eating properly and after losing over 20 lbs this summer you have no idea how bad I want to see what my body will become. So as of monday I will be back at eating clean as I have been doing all summer and I am ready to put the booze aside and just giv’er! Hopefully by the holidays I will be where I’d like to be!

I’ll be honest… this isn’t going to be the cleanest of weeks since I’m going to Miami tomorrow morning until wednesday. I eat clean mon-fri and cheat usually dinner or late evening as I am a 20 yr old who likes the occasional alcholic beverage with her friends every now and then. I still cardio on weekends but the eating is whats so very important. Fortunately I am lucky enough to lose my weekend gains by at least wednesday and by friday dip lower then the previous friday. My last trip to boston was great, i ate pretty decently considering it was vacation (oh and I can’t drink in the states yet haha so it helps!) and considering my mother and I split a different slice of cheesecake everyday (so thats 3 different types from the cheesecake factory … I know its bad but I live in Canada and we dont have them here so its not like im there all the time hahah this is usually a few times a year) but I blame no one for indulging in my cravings because no one is forcing this delicious yet horrible food down my throat, i do it myself and am willing to face the consequences. I pulled a quad muscle this week so I havnt been pushing for regular cardio until it heals which should be soon but i’d rather take it easy then damage it more and prolong better results. I will be at the hotel gym everyday so I am not worried about working out… because it does help but its the eating that counts more then anything! On top of this miami business cutting into my eating clean time, I go back up to school on friday… which is the weekend, and lets be honest there will be booze awaiting me upon my return! So All in all the point of this entire post was that I figure I will not be weighing in until about the 14th just because I know the damage of this week is going to affect my goals but I rather not know how bad the damage is hahah I know it will be bad but I can promise you that after this week I will be back on track and determined to acheive my next goal which is abs hahah! So please be patient and I promise that you guys will see nothing but good things from me in the future!!!
