Finals weekk..
Ugh okay so this week I have finals, and it sucks because I am barely making time for the gym. But on the good side, I went today and then I found out that last night I made a 100 and an 80 on my other two tests. Yay! But okay tell me if this happens to any of y’all: My nutritionist gave me an eating plan that is completely different on how I used to eat and I am eating the 5 small meals a day, and somehow I managed to gain weight. Will the weight eventually start to come off or what? I don’t like this feeling, especially since I am going to see my boyfriend on Christmas (he’s in the Air Force) and I was planning to look really good for when I saw him and I just feel down on myself more than ever. This bites! Sometimes I just wonder if I should quit trying…. I mean it’s the hardest battle ever and especially coming from an eating disorder, it’s so hard. I still sometimes battle with bulimia, maybe that and drinking are the two reasons I am plateauing. Who knows! Welll, I’m going to the Rockets game tonight! YAYAYA! And then my last final is tomorrow. Thank goodness! I can finally get bck on schedual. Well, I hope everyone has a beautiful day!

Hi again Chelsea,
I think I understand how you feel. I am really good about getting my workouts in, and if I am at the gym, always give a full, honest effort. The diet is the hard part for me. It takes planning, effort, knowledge, willpower. I think it comes down to what is most important to you. I try to ask myself before I eat something, why am I eating this, do I need to eat this or do I know I shouldn’t eat this. Is there something better I could have. Sometimes, I still give in, but I have to answer to myself. I understand the beer thing too………trust me. It will be really hard in college, but there are people who don’t do it so they can reach their goals. I am not one of them………..but I do try to limit myself, and reward myself for hard work sometimes too. Just gotta be careful the hard work is happening more than the rewarding. As far as the 5 meals a day, I think it pretty much comes down to calories in and calories burned. Did you actually eat more than you normally do? Were you trying to lose weight? Two more things…….no, you should not quit trying, and I think your boyfriend will be very happy when he sees you. He is going to think you look great. Take care……hope things get easier for you.
