we didn't go to the gym last night. both park and i had a bit of stomach problems. yesterday was an all veggie and soup day. i boiled some lettuce and spinach then i got to indulge in a large boiled potato with a bit of butter and chili powder. it was soooo yummy. as soon as i finised it tho, i had to run to the bathroom. *for the sensitive reader, move on to the next paragraph.* for the not so sensitive reader, goooood lord it was an endless time on the crapper. i think i read a chapter of my book in there, it took so long, and when i thought i was all finished, i was wrong. and that damn man toiletseat parkin has, it's more narrow and hurts the sides of my ars. man oh man. at least it wasn't a painful poo, just a lengthy and uh, not so solid one. ***ewwww, gross, did i just share that?*** oh like it's never happened to you!!!
i was sooo hungry last night. after i ate my initial dinner of 1/2 a head of romaine lettuce, 2 cups of spinach, boiled potato, and 2 bowls of soup, i was so full, but after i went to the toilet, i came back as hungry as ever, so i boiled some more spinach, lettuce, and two bowls of the soup with none of the veggies, just broth, and had a bag of baby carrots after parkin munched on a bag of potato skins. mmmmm, chips....damn him. my stomach kept rumbling but i just filled it with water. it's weird because the last time i did this diet, my stomach didn't hurt with hunger as much as it has been these past couple of days.
anyhow, i weighed in at 132lbs this morning. lost 2 pounds over the night. i probably pooed it all out last night. *bleh*
today is a veggie and fruit day. i have plenty to eat. of course i've filled containers of soup, but also have lettuce, grapes, carrots, persimmon, pears (2types) and an apple for the day. i already had a bowl of soup and a bunch of grapes. i'll hit up the pear soon.
when parkin's parents came home last night, they laughed and interrogated me about my diet. his dad tried to find out how much i weighed then his mom joined in the fun, but i wouldn't tell them. when his mom asked me what i had for dinner, i told her that i had veggies and a potato and she said that potatos are fattening. *hmph* i told her that i was allowed to, so she said ok. haha. as his dad left, he said, "how much weight do you want to lose?" i said that i wanted to lose a couple of pounds before we go to hong kong, and he said oh, ok. then his mom followed with, "yeah, lose some weight so you look prettier for the pictures."
i know her statement wasn't meant to be mean, but it kind of hurt. i've gotten use to 'elder chinese' remarks, but they still sting a little when i hear them. anyhow, i went to the fridge looking for a snack last night and noticed that mrs. jung had cut up some persimmon for me as well as packing a container of grapes and pear for me to bring to work this morning. :)
i know i'm not fat, just a bit mushy around the edges. i'm trying to work on it thru diet AND exercise. as least i'm not binging like trishelle in real world las vegas. now that girl's got some problems, especially when she's denying it to a friend who is trying to help.
so anyhow, i'm almost done with my pot of soup, there are veggies left and a couple bowls of the broth, but i am going to prepare another pot tonight for the rest of the week. i need to go to the bank soon, so i'll stop by and pick up some groceries on the way back. :p
have a great day!
