Apparently I Suck at Blogging

So it’s been a  long while since I last wrote.  And I’ve not been so good about the whole diet-thing.  Maybe it’s PMS?  But I’ve really craved all kinds of bad-for-me foods.  And have been giving in to those cravings of late. 

I’ve still been really good about bringing my breakfast and lunch to work Monday through Friday (consisting of soup, yogurt, a piece of fruit and some carrots).  But have been eating a lot of pasta for dinner.  We don’t have much money, and pasta is just affordable.  So, that’s been somewhat bumming me out.

Also, I haven’t been so good about the bike riding for the past week.  I did go on a couple rides last week that were decent.  But I’m just not getting around to doing it the 3+ times a week like I’d hoped.

So here I am in mid June and I’ve probably gained weight since starting this blog.  But I don’t really know for sure, because I haven’t gotten a scale (like Tyler told me to do….).  And don’t really have the money to buy a scale anyway.

I do have 2 salmon burgers in the freezer still.  So tonight I will have a salmon burger, done on my Foreman grill with no bun.  And probably have some broccoli or peas to go with.  Or, I have two slices of cheese-less pizza to reheat.  Those options are pretty good.  Hopefully I won’t be hungry a couple hours after eating, though.  Because that’s when I tend to get into trouble.  With wanting to snack.  We don’t usually keep too many snacks in the house.  But occasionally have things like pretzels, peanuts or graham crackers.  And I’ll begin to munch on those.

It also doesn’t help that I’ve been somewhat in a bummed mood of late.  I feel that I’m at a point in my life where I’m maybe becoming distant from many friends and it’s been extremely disappointing.  To the point where I’m letting it effect my well-being.  Which is stupid, I know.  But I feel I can’t help it.  And begin to feel sorry for myself and then it becomes this vicious loop.  Also, I’ve been dealing with financial stress and job stress (and trying to find a new job and the stress that comes with that…).  All of which, when piled together, seem detrimental.

As usual, any advice that you may have would be much appreciated!
