Stress Much?

So I've been waiting for the real "sting" of finals to hit me,

and today, it did.

Along with a couple other things.

The stress has suddenly piled up in the last couple of hours out of nowhere.

Tomorrow I have my Biology final as well as my ASL...

I hope I survive the Biology. I'm nervous.

You know what that means... test anxiety. Yay?!

Anyway, I'm studying away. Hopefully it pays off and I can (let us pray) get at least get a C?? Please?

Yeah, it's that bad for me I know. Sorry I'm a bad test-taker.

So I went to the gym tonight to wake up a little bit and have some one-on-one time with Mr. Treadmill.

Man you take a couple days off, and sometimes it feels like you haven't worked out in months.

I walked by the scale... told myself not to do it, but I couldn't resist.

Now I'm not gonna put any real details out there, but let's just say the past couple of weeks have NOT

done me any good.

The stress, the endless cookie supply everywhere I go. Literally. My work supplies cookies ALL the time recently and people have been offering me Christmas cookies left & right!

My ASL class even had a "cookie" party last week.

Usually I can easily resist since cookies have never been my absolute favorite thing,

but I don't have time to eat real food recently and I'm hungry... so I accept the generous offer of calories without a second thought.

Until now.

No more cookies, no more eggos, and sadly...  I'm taking a much-needed break from carbs. Specifically bread. 

No one said it would be easy, only that it would be worth it... right?

Yeah well let's hope so.

I know Christmas is in less than 2 weeks so this new diet isn't going to have the most successful beginning,

but I will restrain myself from indulging in any sort of food offered to me.

I know I sound like such a typical girl, talking about "weight issues" and recent blows to the confidence-meter.

But hey, I'm not complaining. I take full responsibility.

These are just goals, and posting them will give me a little extra push to doing it right.

So tonight, after I vented to Madison, we went to the grocery store to buy healthy food and snacks

and now I have a lunch prepared to take to work tomorrow so I can quit with the boxed food, ya know?

Then before I dropped him off at his apartment, we decided to divulge in a nice, fattening crepe.

Yum.

Strawberries and Cream Crepe from the crepe place in front of his apartment.

It was my farewell to sugar for the time being. Adios!

Warning- Delicious, yet harmful.
