...and to tell the truth i am still trying to figure the site out.
it is a little confusing, but hey there ya go.
so i am officially done being a lifeguard, which is sad.
it helped keep me in good shape..
ill still swim, but i wont have to do my skills or save any lives.
im already missing it, and it hasnt been that long.
it was just such a great job, and it is hard to say goodbye.
perhaps it is hard to say goodbye because i am saying it to so many people!
i am moving soon, and i am so effffffing pumped. it is going to be so super fantastic!
and time is just flying by - just a few more dayss.woot.
so as i said on thursday, i had to interrupt my fast to eat so that i could be strong for work - cuz it really sucks being on a super hot pool dead, being super tired, watching boring swims & being light-headed. it is just far too much for me to handle! so i had an apple for breakfast, and half a peanut butter sandwich for lunch.
{i dont know if peanut butter is good for you or not, but it fills me right up - AND it gives me tonnes of energy, which i needed for swim team!}
also, i went for my final weigh in at the docs on friday {i was so gross - i literally jumped out of the pool, put on some dry clothes and ran to the docs!}
when i first started weigh ins i had to wear nothing but a hospital gown because i was caught "smuggling" penny rollers in my underwear. i learned all the tricks. so for a long time i had to be "inspected" and was forced to wear the gown. after a while of that i was allowed to wear clothes because the exact number doesnt matter so much as the range of the number. so when i went on friday i was nervous because i have been fasting and not eating a lot lately, and i didnt want to get caught before i left or else i wouldnt be allowed to go.. {i am down 4 pounds, which puts me at 116!}.
so i wore a LOT of layers.. good thing it was cold out! i wore a padded gel bra (since gel weighs more than just foam), 2 tanks, t-shirt, big sweater, track pants & two pairs of leggings, plus HUGE wool socks! i was actually quite warm, dressed for a winter day! plus i have really long, thick hair that was soaking wet. i wore a really heavy necklace, plus a super fancy hair elastic.
my weight was ... 119! aka i had on three pounds of stuff! i was so pleased.
they were not concerned that i was down a pound considering that i am stressed about a lot of things. doc said that given my history he expected two or three pounds, but was glad it was only one. so now i am done with weigh ins. since i am 20 and i technically do not have to go.. so they are lucky i went at all!
i began my fast again on friday. i ate the PB sandwich at 1pm. and i havent eaten since!
what are some useful tricks/tips you guys use when you are fasting, like when it gets tough and you are really craving stuff?
leave me a comment :)
stay strong!
think thin
