Not The Perfect Fit

Tomorrow morning is my first weigh in day since I started. I have been doing everything right. I have been working out (mostly cardio but some strength too) and I have been eating super healthy… or so I thought.

I cut out most carbs out of my diet. I’ve just been eating lots of fruits and veggies, and always protein. Well, I decided to check out how many calories my average day is. I have been cutting out a lot of fatty stuff so I figured it went from 2000 to 1500. Well, when I looked online it turns out I only eat about 300 cals per day. This is pretty bad since I burn over 2000 a day exercising. 

I don’t feel like I am depriving myself of food. I eat a LOT. It is just the food I eat (like lettuce) has very little nutritional value. I am afraid my body may be going into starvation mode, storing fat, and making me gain weight. Ughhh

I’m nervous. We will just have to see tomorrow morning.

When you live in the dorms and you are still in high school you typically go to the cafeteria for breakfast lunch and dinner. I have come across a recent problem. The Last 4 days they have served nothing but bread and pasta dishes (I eat neither of those things). I have been living off of ice burgh lettuce, mushrooms, and whatever scarce meat I can find. Today I had a huge salad for both dinner and brunch. Brunch was ham, eggwhites, and mushrooms, and dinner was manwhich meat, ham and mushrooms. i need real food -.-

Last night I was really tired and my leg was acting up so I couldn’t go run, so today I decided I would go run to front street (About six miles away) and jog there till brunch at 1130. My alarm went off at 7 this morning and I was light URRRRRR but I promised I would post pictures so I got my butt out of bed, got dressed, and was out the door in 10 minutes. I ran and the breeze was GLORIOUS! I had a fun time. By the time I was back at the school cafeteria for brunch I was drenched in sweet. It was HOT! I am satisfied with my workout though. I am the master commander!

I’m going to go run to front street tomorrow morning before brunch, It is a good distance away and definitively the farthest I’ve gone, but I am looking forward to it. I just hope I am still motivated at 7 am on a Saturday…
