Hi Frands

It's been quite the time since graduation. This bear got run down by the struggle bus, but is working on making things better.


I was supposed to be able to be playing (or whatever) again by August, but there were complications with my knee and I ended up having to get steroid shots. I'm finally not in pain, but I've lost a depressing amount of strength and muscle. It's been over a year since I've been able to be active.

Anyway, this blog is right on time, because today I went to the pool to start swimming again. (I swam in jr/high school.) It felt really good to readjust to being in the water again, and I'm really looking forward to going back.

If anyone wants to go swimming with me, let me know! I can guest you in at the Aquatic Center. :)

TG it's FRIDAY

FOURTH DAY and I'm feeling much better, less stiff you know?
I think the run and bike really stretched me out.




NOMS: The reasoning behind how I've been eating is to do small meals throughout the day! Good for yo metabolism!

1. Coffee w/ skim, some granola (Was a little late getting up today so rushed a tad and didn't eat much D:)
2. Left over pepper tofu, steamed green beans over a bed of salad
3. Snacked on granola
4. 1 Magic hat 9
5. 1 chip at Kerri's, lol
6. Boiled egg
7. Broccoli, mushroom, tomato & basil sauce on spaghetti w/ salad

WORKOUT: Didn't work out today :( Right after work went to Kerri's, then grocery shopping, now watching football.
Hope to play bball with friends tomorrow and work out!

I'm SO Happy friends are HERE!/URL NAME CHANGE?!

YAYAYAYYA!!
I'm so glad YA'LL ARE HERE!
I also invited Lorena, Emhsieh, and Thalia!
And I'm sure there will be more to come!
I'm also changing the url to:
bwrfcalumkygy.blogspot.com

Annalisa's suggestion was the 'kygy' part.
Know Yourself, Grow Yourself

I think it's cute.

And more relevant than thuy-mai.blogspot.com, lol.


****
Turns out I can't change the url name unless I buy a domain.
If ya'll are ok with thuy-mai.blogspot.com lol we can keep it.
OR I can pay 10$ a year (NOT MUCH AT ALL WE CAN DO IT IF YA'LL WANT)
to change it to

bwrfcalumkygy.com

or something else if there's interest!
Let me know!

Do I really have to post what I've eaten because that's embarrassing.

YO FRIENDS. This is funnnn. So I am trying to run the 10 mile Broad Street run in Philly with my dad and sister who both have 2+ half marathons under their belts. And as we all know....I HATE RUNNING. But I have been able to make some progress slowly but surely. Anywho. Yesterday I ran 4.5 miles. I did not want to go to the gym and I was very slow. But I went anyways because I knew I was going to eat a SHIT-TON. I will post my food, but it will not be healthy. And I am okay with that. No blueberry greek yogurt for me. Coffee errrday Broccoli cheese quiche leftovers for lunch An ORANGE Various chocolates (I have candy/snacks in my office for my students but I always EAT ALL OF THEM!!) 3 Tostadas ($1 Tostadas at Viva Mexico) and chips/salsa Various cakes (pecan, chocolate cake, and carrot cake) for Julio's bday. SO obviously I eat a lot of sweets. I should work on that. huh.
