Finally got my rear in GEAR today.
Walked extra around campus to classes this morning (like xtra 6 min but still. It adds up.)
Ran errands to walgreens/walmart to get mousse, shampoo, etc.
Came home, popped in the headphones and ran up/down stairs for the entire 6 minutes (woo, sweaty!!)
And then the fam went out and raked our huuuuuge backyard. We got it all done, but it took us 1 hr 20 minutes!
Lots of calorie burning. My muscles in my hands are cramping, and I know I'll be sore tomorrow. But it was worth it.
I haven't eaten much today either (max 300 cal)
Today:
Raking = 415 calories in 1 hr 28 min
Running stairs = 99 calories in 6 min
Total = 514 cal burned
(Add extra walking around campus) = 100+ cal to total.

Sunshine in the Rain?

I think it's safe to say that we have not gone 36 hours without it RAINING. I am just sick of it. Going insane.
I am so sick of the rain. Sick of making myself park in the farthest parking lot away from the school building, so that I have to walk a long ways so I get some sort of exercise. Sick of having to walk back out in the cold and wind and rain, my pant legs getting SOAKED and nasty and I'm miserable...all because of this eating disorder that forces me to obsess about calories and exercise and therefore makes me miserable.
Not to mention the fact that I haven't eaten much all day...actually more than what I normally do (I had a tiny chip, 2 squares chocolate, and a black coffee during break). I feel guilty. Worst feeling in the world.

Other worst feeling in the world is when your Better Half is driving 13 hours home in the rain crap and I miss him terribly. And the fact that he leaves for Navy boot camp November 15th. I get to travel over to IN to bawl my eyes out and feel like somebody punched a hole in my heart with a huge hole-puncher and not be able to speak with Jon for 3 weeks. And even then, it will be letters.
Optimism: I still will have some sort of communication with him.
This rant was basically me just hating the weather. I have tons of homework. Off I go. Nursing my Green Tea :]
