Biker's hunger

Woke up for TurboKick this morning. Sub. Not feeling her, but I got a good sweat. I may have also hurt my left knee... I felt pain while kicking.

Lunch:

Plans changed. Biked for 2 hours. Went to Sprouts and found Australian-style/Colorado-made Noosa blueberry yoghurt on clearance for 99 cents. I've been wanting to try it forever.


Put a spoon in it for my mid-afternoon snack. I don't think I even had 1/4 of it. It's rich and delicious, but a lot of calories.

I applied for 8 jobs: 4 instructional assistant positions, part-time teacher position, 2 program leader positions, and for good measure, a sales associate job for active wear. :) Proud day.

Instead of hitting the gym for more cardio and yoga, I decided to ride my bike again. One more hour.

I got some lite English muffins and made myself an egg white + goat cheese English muffin sandwich for dinner.



I was hungry and on my adventure to Target earlier, I saw Vitalicious VitaSandwich.

The only downside to biking: sitting on my bottom all the time.

Learning to be frugal

I've been rather fortunate to get what I want when I want it. But it won't last forever. Unless I marry rich, which I will totally do. I'm all for a loveless union because I don't plan on getting married. Yeah, I'm not really that into love and never have been. Maybe it's my low estrogen levels or somethin'.

I'm addicted to buying things, especially food because I can reason it. I buy something everything when, jobless, I should not be.

Thus, I've formulated a plan for the next few days of what I should do to stay on track and keep myself busy. The plan should cover pretty much every minute of my day. I'll do this daily.

First, Monday. Tomorrow:
  • 8AM Wake up
  • 8:20AM Drive car to gym
  • 8:30AM Breakfast (Shakeology) in car
  • 9AM TurboKick
  • 10AM Power sculpt OR go to aunt's house & catch up online
  • 11:15AM Lunch (salmon, shirataki noodles, napa cabbage mix)
  • 12PM Apply for 6 jobs. Seriously Julie. Do this now.
  • 2:30PM Ride bike about 2 hours!
  • 3PM Afternoon snack (yogurt) & apply for another job! If time, read Fat Girl's Guide to Life.
  • 5:30PM Green juice & drive to gym **Make sure to take my acai home with me somehow...
  • 6:30PM Hip hop Ride bike for 1 hour!
  • 7:30PM Yoga Eat dinner
  • 9PM Be home, shower, & have protein yogurt
  • 10PM Apply for 1 more job. YES. Finish it up. If I finish early, I can watch "Dexter!"
  • 12AM Sleep!
NEWS*: You should be proud, I've stopped baking. Duh. Less calories (I say this as I'm finishing my night with a passion fruit marshmallow - I've had them for 3 weeks), less waste of $.

Herb [helmet] head

Yes, the bike again. This time, I'm talking about the helmet.

I want to DIY the helmet like Oh Joy.


But I want to make it my own with colors. Maybe? My helmet has holes/vents so I'm planning to apply them like Joy did then use an X-Acto knife to cut the decals at the vents.
