Dinner, Day Twenty-Eight

skipped.

I had planned to have the rest of the pasta I'd made yesterday, vile burnt onion flavor or not, but I was literally too tired to microwave it and put it in my mouth. My boyfriend had it instead, and I went to bed for the night at about 7pm.

I know that it is a really bad idea to skip so many meals, as my body will never get less tired this way, and I'm sure I'm not getting the proper nutrients. Because I'm not exercising, I'm most likely slowing my metabolism by not eating at normal times or maintaining the right energy levels, so I won't be surprised if I gain weight this week.

Then again, I can take the tiniest sliver of pride that at least I'm not abandoning the meal plan entirely, and when I do eat, it's (mostly) balanced healthy meals. Ordinarily under stress, I would flip out and order delivery food or prepare some really unhealthy convenience foods just to cram something down my throat. I'm prepared to accept that eating healthy is a challenge and that if it were easy to do mindlessly, I would never have gotten overweight in the first place.

Boy am I glad this week is over with though!!!
