But I don't WANNA post!

Yes, I'm hiding out, can you tell?

In this case, no news is bad news. It could be a lot worse, yes. At least I got the fridge cleaned out (heinosity, for sure). It looks rather sad now, a lone bunch of broccoli and one on-the-verge-of-withering orange pepper. Some unopened hummous, and scattered cheese wheels. A newly-purchased container of almond milk, since my herbalism teacher has me freaked out about soy now (too much estrogen, combined with too much plastic-which-mimics-estrogen). I won't cut it out completely, but I will have to rethink my current love of all things soy.

Speaking of good food & prepping, I had to smile at Lainey's post about needing more hours in the day to get all the things done that make our lives work, and where in the hell do we fit in exercise and eating right?! Great question. I guess we do stay up until midnight and work our schedule around it, trying to fit it in where we can. I totally agree with the advice on making it a non-negotiable part of your daily schedule, an appointment that must not be cancelled (unless you're on your deathbed). I haven't been doing that, and therefore have not been exercising.

I have been pretty tired these past several nights, which is a welcome change from the nervous anxiety energy that I had for awhile. It doesn't help me get my homework done, though. In fact, this is the first week of school that I have not read ahead for anatomy/physiology. I find it much easier to understand the lecture if I've read the material ahead of time. I'm not sure the other students do that, but I don't really care what they are/are not doing. I know what works for me. Technically I am not behind, but I think it would be more beneficial for me to have read it. Ah well. I have two more weeks of lecture and then the final, so this weekend will be dedicated to catching up.

Had a brief chat with the bf about planning some healthy meals, and then actually cooking them. He agreed, but I know I'll have to push the issue to get it done. He's good about helping when I make specific requests, and I know this wasn't quite specific enough.

I have veggies and some frozen organic burritos for lunch/school snacks, plus the aforementioned hummous etc. I have an almost-empty refrigerator so that I can get some more veggies etc., but I do need to plan what I/bf will make for meals. I could get up tomorrow to work out, even if it's just walking at the track. Will be able to make it to the Y on Thursday and maybe Friday, and need to plan some exercise for the weekend, whether it's outside or at the Y.

I will deal with the need for emotional eating when it arises, which probably won't take long, given my recent habits. Still need to figure out what is going on there!
