Eating Habits and Riot Gear

I noticed that my eating habits are changing.

I haven’t drank a soda, except for two sips of the Pepsi I spilled all over my car three weeks ago, in more than a month. Even with lemonade, I’m finding it too sweet.

Instead of devouring Krispy Kreme donuts whenever they’re in the office, I’m only eating one and I’m happy with it. I think as my taste buds dismiss the sweet sodas I was used to drinking, my tolerance for sweet, sugary foods is also going down.

That’s a good thing, right? I thought so too.

I pulled out Dance Dance Revolution last night and did about 20 minutes before I collasped. My tolerance with that is going up too. I bumped the workout level down to average, which helped too, but I still burned 120 calories according to the counter. Squee! Of course, it counterbalanced the buffet I had for dinner last night.

I notice that 70 percent of the time, I’m reaching for stuff that’s pretty good for me. I don’t remember the last time I ate at a fast food restaurant (Subway does not count.) Wait, yes I do. About three weeks ago? Yeah, that sounds right. I did get a pizza earlier this week, but I just got a plain cheese pizza. Except for the first night (when it was lunch and dinner), I’ve limited myself to two slices per meal. I still have two slices left.

My weight’s fluctuating within two to three pounds of what it has been, but it’s not going up either. If I pay a little more attention to food and keep DDR up, it’ll go down. And I have to remember that I’m working towards a goal - LA in April! That reminds me! Isn’t there SMRFFers out in LA? Megsie’s coming to town!!! Wahooo!!!!

In the meantime, the Florida vs. Tennessee showdown is going on throughout the building. Steve, the editor, is a Florida fan and 80 percent of the building is Tennessee. ::puts on riot gear and plugs in her Alabama CD:: Thank God for the Crimson Tide....ROLL TIDE!
