18 Days Until My Birthday

What was meant to be a fast this weekend, clearly has not turned out to so. On Friday, I wanted to have this particular sandwich which had - no jokes - 900 calories in it. So, I then had a mini-binge fest, so another 2000 calories. I mean - whatever. But it was with the intention of having two days of fasting to rid myself of that grossness. Yesterday though, my willpower gave out and I started walking down to the supermarket to get millions of calories. On the way though, I managed to talk myself off a cliff and settled on a pasta bake, zero calorie energy drink and some apples. I managed to only have about 800 calories yesterday because of it. I'm going to take this as a small victory. It wasn't a fast, but it could've been a binge and it didn't turn out that way. 

It is my birthday on the 17th of March and I have this skirt from Zara that I bought a year and a half ago. I've worn it twice and both times it was hopelessly too tight. It is a charcoal, high waisted, flared skirt in matt, patent leather. It is SO fabulous and it's my skinny skirt. I tried it on this morning and it will zip up, but it is super tight and my stomach fat bulges over the top. My goal for the next 18 days is to get into that skirt for my birthday. So I need to behave. I'm going to move forward my 800 calorie reduction to now. I get paid tomorrow, so I can again afford to eat skinny food all day. 

I want to get into it for my birthday and I will, I will, I will. 

Peace & Love

900 calorie sandwich? is it a 12" from Subway?

don't you think that's ironic? that when we binge, we don't binge on the thing that set off the binge usually. like for me, the thing that sets off a binge is usually something innocuous, like perhaps, a craving for a cookie that would put me +300-400 calories off goal. last last week, it was this hot chocolate i really wanted to have. and i had everything BUT it at first. funny how that works.

17th of March, eh? i'll definitely forget that date because i'm hopeless with birthdays. le sigh.
