Still fighting off depression from yesterdays events. Rejection is not something I am used to, but thankfully i've stopped using food as a cure for depression. I ate smart today. I had a serving of vegan refried beans, a quarter cup of nuts and an italian ice. That all came to around 350 calories.
Then Cassius came over and wanted our normal pizza for dinner, which is a traditional thing. I ordered the cheese pizza for him, and found out that the gluten free crust from Dominos was Vegan. It was a small, the only size they have, and was 8 dollars more than a regular small. So I did not order that. Instead I had a bread stick and two pieces of his cheese pizza.
It's been a while since I had animal products in me, and it made my stomach churn a bit, but not to badly. on top of that, it was fairly calorie light, the three items came to 510 calories.
While I was eating it though, I had wished I had picked something I had already cooked. The food just tasted less than what I was expecting. Yes I want a burger, or a taco salad from taco bell, but cooking and eating better has made me feel better about myself. I know it's ok in moderation, but I think next pizza night, I am going to buy some whole wheat pitas, some marinara sauce and some veggie toppings, and just make my own pizzas while Cassius has the name brand. Heck maybe he would like to make little pita pizzas with daddy.
Exercise goals were met, when I am depressed and upset I am not channeling that energy into exercising and talking to a really good friend.
I'm down to 11 cigarettes a day, I think Monday, I am going to try to go cold turkey. I'm done with being a fat unhealthly slob. I want to be around people again. I want a job to go on top of my already awesome work from home gig. The sooner I quit smoking the sooner I can start 5k training.
