Day 18:
Breakfast: nutigrain strawberry bar, biscuit with butter
Snack: mini york, mini twizzlers
Lunch: Chick Fil A caesar wrap
Dinner: 2 bites of salad, 1 nibble of bread
Total Calories: about 800
My goal was to eat only 600 calories today, but I overshot it by 200. See, Saterday I ate enough food for two days: Sunday I tried not to eat anything, and that backfired- so I decided to split the calories you'd have in one day (1200 for me) and disperse it over two days- that way it makes up for one whole day's worth of food.
Maybe I'll try to eat only 400 calories tomorrow, and if that doesn't work, I'll go for 800 tomorrow and Wednesday- either way I'll have redeemed my overeating from Saturday :)

Day 16,
Oh it was a ruddy day. Stupid bed rest.
Breakfast: 2 slices wheat toast, cereal
Snack: 5 cashew turtles
Lunch: 5 cashew turtles
Snack: 25 grapes, 40 ruffles chips
Dinner: fried steak, mashed potatoes, corn and 3 biscuits
Dessert: 2 1/2 cups of chocolate covered pretzels, 1 cashew turtle
Snack: chocolate milk
Thats a whopping 3718 calories- thats 2 whole days worth of food!!!!
The day started out good, I went running first thing in the morning; but then my damn foot started hurting, and before I knew it my foot was swelling and I couldn't run on it. Then I was put on bed rest... I got bored, and guess what I did? I ate. I ate a lot.
It's not my foots fault, it's my fault. Its all my fault. Where is my control?
I should've gone to god for help, not food. When will I learn?

Day 15:
Breakfast: Cliff bar, 6 fried chips
Dinner: 9 chicken nuggets, curly fries, pumpkin pie
Snack: Ruffles chips
Total: 1680 calories
Exercise: shopping for 5 hours
Total: 500 calories
Intake: 1180 calories
Its sad that I have time to shop with friends, but not enough time for the most important "person" I know- my savior Jesus Christ. I must stop placing myself as the center of my life, and allow Christ to take the spot.
I mean, just look at my diet! Fried food, and sugar-loaded desserts! Nothing was of any nutritional value! If I was graded for my diet, I would've failed today.
This is what happens when you rely on your own strength, instead of God's! I should've asked God for help, but I didn't. When will I learn that I need him???

--- For the past four days I have been taking my finals: I decided that whatever I ate during that time did not count.
Yes, I ate some things that I'm not proud of, and yes I skipped out on exercise: but in the end I never ate a single cookie, and always replaced a salad for one meal:) So it was't horribly terrible. The worst day was when I ate an entire bag of Hershey kisses. But that was just stress-induced chocoholicism. (yep, its a word)
But today, I resume: Day 14:
Breakfast: half a bottle of gatorade
Lunch: Salad (corn, beans, wonton noodles, baked chicken, and caesar dressing)
Snack: Entire bag of carmel popcorn, 2 cupcakes (sugar free, no icing), 2 Haagen Daz peppermint ice cream bars.
That means I took in a whopping 2770 calories today
BUT- I did jog for 2 hours, crunched 100 sit ups, 50 arm lifts, and sprinted a mile and half: plus today I decorated the house, did a ton of laundry, ... so that burn up about 2550 calories... so
Yay!! That means I only took in like 220 calories today!
But, today when I took a crash quite time with God, he made it evident to me that I need to stop eating junk food. I've eliminated soft drinks, cookies, and fried food from my diet, but I need to take it further. I need to cut down on sweets, so here is my proposition: I can't just automatically stop eating sweets, I need to gradually make the transition- so, I have already cut out cookies, my next elimination will be ice cream. No more ice cream.
I give God the glory for my exercise today, if it wasn't for the strength he gave me I wouldn't have been able to do it. I love you God, thanks for helping me out

Day 13:
Breakfast: Pineapple, Strawberries, and 2 chocolate pancakes
Lunch: 21 fresh peanuts
Dinner: Green bean casserole, Sliced potatoes, and Salad (beans, carrots, sunflower seeds, ham, cheeses, and ranch dressing)
Snack: Granola bar, white chocolate Hershey bar.
This morning I read a bit of Mark, and prayed to God. I really could've done better, but I was just lazy.
I also skipped running. Again- lazy!
We must remember, that even when we feel lazy, and just want to eat junk food and watch TV, that God calls us to NOT be lazy, he wants us to be alive and active! So get up, go running, eat healthy, and glorify God in all you do! Don't be lazy!

Day 10:
Oooh, It was a bad, bad day.
Breakfast: 1 bagel with peanut butter
Lunch: 1 apple
.... then it began
Dinner: 40 crackers, 1 rtiz cheese sandwich, 2 pop tarts, 1/2 bag of no-butter popcorn, 20 peppermint yogurt pops, and 1 nutrigrain bar
And why did I fail? Because I did not even attempt to meet God today and ask him for help. Bad mistake.

Day 8:
Lunch: BBQ chicken sandwich between 2 slices of seed bread, plus two "snake eggs"(really they were some kind of fried-cheese-and-jalepeno-appatizer thing )
Dinner: 20 wheat crackers with honey butter.
Today I went to church, despite the difficulty it took me, and I totally relied on God for my speech: in short, I put in a bunch of effort to meet God at church, and God gave back just as much effort in making my speech go well.
What I learned: Give everything to God, because when you do give it all to God, life falls neatly into place.
