Italian

I forgot that last night I was having a dinner at an Italian cafe to celebrate the end of the semester. Got to see a bunch of friends and eat free food. But I ate too much. Not a ton, but too much. Some gnocchi, some spaghetti and half a slice of cheesecake.

Today has been good though. I don't have enough time to get to the gym before work, but at least I'm on my feet the whole time I'm at work. And I've only had a bagel, some apple juice, and two Tic Tacs today. Just about 500 calories!

School

I'm currently sitting in my university library, working on a research paper that's due by the end of today. And I'm having a 0 calorie Lifewater (in Yumberry Pomegranate, my favourite flavour) and Pocky for lunch. Not healthy at all, but it's not messy, so I can eat it while flipping through books. Need to finish this quickly!

Food + Gym

Ugh. I need to learn more self-control. I just ate an entire box of Velveeta mac 'n' cheese. It's so bad for me, but I can't stop myself. Well, off to the gym for a few hours. I'm excited to feel new muscles forming in my arms.

Work-Study

I'm applying for a work-study at a local dance company. I'd be doing grunt work (mopping, cleaning, dusting, etc.) in exchange for free classes at their studio. Cross your fingers for me!

Purge: Rehab Diaries

As I mentioned in a previous post, Purge: Rehab Diaries by Nicole Johns is one of my favourite eating-disorder-related books. And I came across it at the library a couple days ago and checked it out... again. And I finished it... again... last night. It's such a great look at rehab facilities. I love it. I'm thinking about writing a letter to Nicole Johns to let her know how much I enjoy it.

What is your favourite ED-related book? Any suggestions?
