Breathe Again!

Finally I can come up for air!!  It has been non-stop lately with school and housework.  Just crazy!  But I handed in an awful Optics homework yesterday and our professor for Quantum gave us an extension until Monday on the homework that was due today.  He is always cool like that when we are swamped.  Anyway, I don’t have any work due the rest of the week but I do have the Quantum and Math Methods due Monday but those are my easier classes (I can see I’ve lost half of you already but I know Missy is still reading right?? LoL)

So anyway!  That means I have free time tonight!  Well, not really.  I need to pay bills onlinee, put away the loads of laundry I did over the weekend, starve my cats for their surgeries tomorrow, and go for a run at some point.  Oh and spend time with Rob.  But I can wait a day or two on the homework at least!

So after my blog yesterday, I made a huge effort with my eating.  I came out to -147 calorie differential.  Not great but not terrible either.  I made sure to pack healthy portioned snacks for the car.  It worked ok and for the ride home, I got some tea to sip and water (school water cooler was empty! eek!).  Not a bad day considering my Tuesdays and Thursdays are long and stressful!

Today, I am starving and I don’t know why.  By 10AM, I had already had 800+ calories!  That is strange for me!  I was seriously craving a bagel so I ran and got one before class.  I am ok now and have grilled chicken over salad for lunch so that will balance all those carbs but I don’t know why my body was craving them so bad!  Could have something to do with the fact that I started my day with cereal and then hard boiled eggs later when I usually do an omelet then oatmeal?  Hm, something to think about!

This weekend is going to be crazy and I’m going to try my best to post a lot because otherwise it will make for an extremely long post in the end!  I’ve got the kitties going in to get fixed, a nutritional analysis with Herbalife, a night away with the hubs, and a local 5K.  Busy times!  That is also in addition to the homework, running, and chores.  Luckily, I only work a half day tomorrow, skyping into class so I don’t have to drive 4 hours, and off on Friday.  So really, its almost the weekend to me!  Alrighty, time to get some little things done and then off to class #2 for today!

  1. Ahhh grad school! Your professors will generally give you as much rope, I mean extensions as you want.

    And you are porbably so hungry because in one day you dropped your calories bu 400! I don’t know about you but that always makes me freakishly hungry the next day. Stupid body!

  2. Oh my gosh, Quantum?? Haha.. remind me NEVER to complain about my artsy fartsy “Social Work with Individuals” class in front of you ever again, okay? That sounds CRaaaaZY!

    Funny you say you were craving bagels! SO WAS I! I made some for Ben the other day, but sadly had to go BUY gluten-free bagels for myself [for wayy to much money!]. Glad we both got our fix =)

    Deep breath… you got this!
