Avocado!
Used an avocado in my smoothie for the first time today. I was hesitant but wow that is delicious. Mixed up with a banana and some strawberries and a splash of milk, I will definitely be buying more of these in the future.

It’s super awful outside with the snow and sleet and rain and I’m warm and cozy but I should get my ass to the gym. Get some cardio in. I’ve eaten so well all week and stuck with my calorie goals but I haven’t been to the gym since getting back to school…
Time to brave the great Canadian north and trek to campus…

Lies fitblr has told me and how to combat them:
Don't keep junk food in the house and you won't be tempted to eat it: Don't keep junk food in the house and you'll end up taking out the entire jar of nut butter with a spatula since it's the only thing around.
Binging is because of lack of self-control: Binging is because of unresolved emotional tensions or not allowing yourself to eat what you really want, when you really want it.
Have a cheat meal once in a while to cut down cravings: Don't put any foods off limits and they'll stop being so special.
Don't add sugar to anything because processed sugar is BAD: If adding a spoonful of sugar to your cocoa powdered oatmeal will satisfy your chocolate craving, don't pretend that unsweetened chocolate will satisfy you.
White flour is BAD, whole grains are GOOD: Food is not inherently good or bad. Food is neutral.
When you feel a craving coming on, it's because you're lacking x nutrient, so eat this food: When you feel a craving for chocolate coming on, eat half a chocolate bar instead of greek yogurt, a big bowl of fruit, three pieces of ezekiel bread, a cup of nuts, and three chocolate bars anyway.
Scrolling through pages of fitness models will motivate you to get in shape: Scrolling through pages of fitness models will cause feelings of inadequacy and self-disrespect.
Lack of discipline and self-control are responsible for fitness failures: Depriving yourself of what you really want and getting burned out on exercise are responsible for fitness failures.
You can look like this fit person if you stay on track: You will look like what healthy you is supposed to look like when you do exercise that makes you happy and eat foods that make your body AND mind feel good!

This was me. This week's been so much better...
beginning of the summer: I'm going to work out every day! I'm going to improve my eating habits! I'm going to do something every day that will help me feel better about myself! I'm going to work on not being sad anymore! I'm going to make new friends and have a lot of fun!
end of July: sleep until 3PM. blog. Eat everything in the house. Don't eat anything. Hate self. Dread school. Avoid all social plans and friends. Become a hermit.

Went to the gym today. Salmon and veggies for lunch. Snacking on some Greek yogurt.
And tonight I’m going out for drinks with some of the girls.
And it’s totally okay. Because I worked hard today, and I’m going to enjoy a drink and then it’s right back to the gym tomorrow. This isn’t going to ruin my progress this week. I won’t let it. :)
I’m back on...
I hate this.
me: *running*
me: *puts earbud back in ear*

Aaaaaand I’ve been MIA for much too long. A bad turned into a bad week, into a bad month, and I’m right back where I was when I started at the beginning of the summer. I’m a little disappointed in myself, but …
I finally signed up for a gym membership for the rest of the summer. I sweated more than I have all summer this morning and I plan on sticking with that from here...

Haven't Been Following My Diet Today...
…due to some digestion issues that have made me want to never touch solid food again my life. But hopefully this passes and I’ll get right back on track in a few days. So far I’ve only had soup and a bit of coffee. I picked up some fruit at the grocery store so I’ll have that in a bit.
Potential TMI under the break -
