Scale was kind today. Despite ttotm, and there MUST be some sodium retention due to sheer volume of food taken in on Sun/Mon....I think my sodium was like 5000 on Mon....despite all that, the scale gave up two lbs and I am now back to 233. Weird. And it's not like yesterday was a super low-cal day either, I was just at maintenance, trying to ease back into a deficit. So...what the heck? I have this awesome theory that I have been overeating so much these last few weeks that I have managed to re-set my metabolism and now, just hitting 2100 will give me a deficit instead of having to get down to 1800. Wouldn't that be nice!? Wishful thinking, but could be some truth to it, we'll see! I am going to make 2000 my target this week instead of 1800.
I give blood today though, and that throws everything off. Last time I was SO hungry the next couple days. I have my panel tomorrow (YIKES!!!) so hopefully that blood won't deplete my brain power! The good part is...they make you eat these blah cookies and over-sweet drink, so I went and bought myself this delicious apple-pecan bar from the Old Time Deli that I never get because there must be a jillion calories in it, well probably closer to 400ish but I figure I will have this instead of their cookies and juice. If I have to eat sugar, may as well have a real treat! So I am very excited. It is the yummiest non-chocolate dessert in the city and I get to eat it guilt-free, yay!
I do not feel at all well-prepared for my interview. Gotta get to studying here. And no clue what to wear. I have a black blazer that will work, maybe with my black work pants or a skirt, but my pants are a teeny bit too short and make me self-conscious (for work they are ok cuz I am hidden behind my desk most of the time but for an interview, I dunno), my skirts are too casual, too faded, or too fancy. And I have nothing appropriate to wear under the jacket, well I do have a white button-down blouse with black stripes, the one I bought for our gay pride parade drag dress-up...but maybe wearing all black and white is too severe. Might have to make a trip to the mall after work....talk about last-minutey.
I added some Halloween pics to my gallery....my favorite one wouldn't load, but the ones there are still pretty cute!
Cute new pics! |
Ok - I have to throw it out there - YOU CAN NOT wear pants that make you self-concious/uncomfortable to an interview. It just won't do. I don't know the 'dressy-ness' of your workplace - but sometimes even a nice plain coloured cotton shirt under a blazer is nice enough? You reminded me about my halloween pics... I really should upload mine too! |
Girl I looked at your pics from your starting point til now and you are kicking butt!! :) You look amazing!! Keep up the good work!! |
I think I'd opt for the mall trip, but that may be because I love shopping. There's nothing like a really great outfit to make you feel confident. Very cool pics! |
I agree with the pants. You just have got to be comfortable for the interview. That way you will be sure to do your best and to feel your best. Just my opinion though, and I am not much of a shopper. Besides, you deserve pants that look and feel awesome! nice pics |
Ok first lets take a moment and praise the scale for cooperating! Good scale :) Second your pictures are great you are looking so HOT!! Third please please please give ya butter chicken recipe! I would love to step up from the jarred kind. |
Holy Boobs! Awesome pics, chickie. You are truly an inspiration. And definitely wear something to the interview that makes you feel really good. |
