Tales of an Herbivore

Last Thursday, I had my wisdom teeth yanked out, so it was hard to eat for a few days. After that few days had gone by I realized "Hey, I haven't eaten meat in like 3 days!" I figured that the next four days or so of vegetarianism would be easy-peezy. It was not always easy, however, especially when Kristen had Japanese food at her house...sushi and teriyaki...it would have been delicious. And all the cravings for In-n-out and Albertaco's NEVER faded. Rough times. I did, however, discover some yummy ways to stay vegetarian thanks to my veggie friend at work! At the end of the day, however, I think I'll just stay a carnivore. YUM :)

Accomplished: 69. Go vegetarian for a week.

It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas!

This past weekend, I got to accomplish another thing on my 101 list...my dad and I did our Christmas lights. Of course, the meaning of "do my Christmas lights" is a little different now that I live in a tiny apartment...but still, we have lights up and they look cute :) . I will try to upload pictures later but for now, all I can say is:

Accomplished: 93. Do my Christmas lights.

I Miss Food.

This morning I stepped on the scale and discovered that I have finally reached my weight goal of 130 lbs! And I look terrible. Every rib is showing and my hip bones are poking out awkwardly. Turns out my goal was a little low...which would explain why it took oral surgery and the subsequent days full of nothing but liquids for me to reach the goal. Now please excuse me while I pray for the day that I can inhale an In-n-Out Burger and get back up to a nice, healthy 135.

The point of this goal was more like: Lose the freshman 15. I gained 15 pounds in ONE SEMESTER last year, and now it is all gone, even at 135, thanks to exercise and slightly healthier eating habits. So mission accomplished!

Accomplished: 4. Get to 130 lbs.
