ORIENTATION obbbviously.. ;)

anyone know good looking ELON boys, send them my way.. OOPS, kidding....but not really

OKAY .. help.

i have this problem where i feel hungry ALL THE TIME.

my nutritionist says i'm at an extremely stable weight, (i went above and beyond my discharge weight from the hospital) i'm eating great, i'm exercising moderately (well, i've always been this active) but i'm ALWAYS hungry. she says it could be a mental thing and i could be telling myself i'm hungry., i need to get my mind off of it and try to do something else instead of **PICKING** because that IS my downfall...

a grape here, a graham cracker there.. a BUNCH of unpictured things.. squirts of whipped cream.. ya know ;)

anyway.. i was wondering if ANYONE has a similar problem!? and if so what do you do?! drink water? chew gum? get out of the kitchen???

OR i need healthy, smart, FILLING, snack ideas!

HIT ME WITH YA BEST SHOT!

k. thanks., love

so wait, food.

i've had popcorn like 20 times in the past 24 hours, its redic.

BFAST:

my love of a luna bar with a gorgeous naner. ( i ate a scoop 'o PB before i left, outttaa the jar. CINNAMON RAISIN. i used to NEVER do this, but lately i have been getting the confidence to just scoop it out when i crave it! I DON'T HATE IT!)

SNACKER:

BERRIES & GRAPES. I PUT PINEAPPLE FLAVORED COTTAGE CHEESE ON AFTER!!!! SORRY ( NO PIC.)

IT'S SO GOOD!!! AHHH! IT'S LIKE DESSERT!

LUNCHEROONI:

salad with chicken& honey mustard dressing

apple & a strawberrrrie chobani

**my friend brought her infamous popcorn to school home popped baby! so i just HADDDD to have about 7 unpictured handfuls... i think my friends are catching on to my addiction!

after escula i made 2 snacks!

a crudite plate...

broccoli, carrot, celery w/ salsa & a pickle for a nickel

iced coffffee <3>

fage & cantaloupe + cinnamon = LOVE IN MY MOUTH.

i felt really bad but i get a temper when people eat my food.. i'm still working on this and am still in recovery and need to eat all of my meal! it was part of my carby snack that i feel like i need to finish.. idk did i over react at her? she apologized for being so snappy with me but i just dont know!

-Popping popcorn is one of the number one uses for microwave ovens. Most microwave ovens have a “popcorn” control button.

-If you made a trail of popcorn from New York City to Los Angeles, you would need more than 352,028,160 popped kernels!

then i made myself an egg beater omlette with onions, peppers, spinach & tonsa ketchup

cut up half a nana, strawberries & blueberries in the side bowl with syrup with i poured on top of the pancake!

BEST. BREAKFAST. EVER.

i did 30 min. elliptical

30 min. stairs

with some stretching & some crunches..

i saw my old teacher there.. she told me i do too much cardio and i should incorporate weight training.. i really would like to! i want to be cute & toned. but honestly the boys are always using the machines & weights.. ( & i go to a large gym .. there are always millions of people there though!)

anywho.. what are your favorite ways to tone up??

weight train? strength? etc.. i need HELP!

k. so i went out to lunch by myself... hahah well it was to the pizza place i work at so it wasnt THAT weird.. any way was SO PROUD I SNAPPED A PICTURE very surreptitiously.

but then ... i deleted it.

after ALL THAT.

okay so

** lunch was: broccoli & spinich in garlic & oil..

then grilled shrimp with peppers, tomato, and onions in a marinara sauce OVER the spinach and broccoli. (this has to be my all time favorite meal.. because it's not on the menu!! they make it for me!!!)

and they give me JUMBO sizes that a normal person couldn't finish. but there are children starving around the world. i cannot let food go to waste...

after i got home i ate this.......

.. after my homemade applesauce this morning. i TRIED to make my own..

SUCH an epic fail.

i don't even know what it was that i made.

first of all i used a pear...uhhh, hahahahahahahhhahha

so it was more like pear juice?

and i topped it with brown sugar, cinnamon, blueberries & whipped cream.. but it was far past being saved...

what the hell. i ate it anyway

okay kiki, literally was eating my tilapia as i read your comment. hahahahh beans shall be tomorrow night! (or LUNCH! or a little breakfast omlette? ;) ...)

family got chinese food. and didn't order me any.....! GRR.

so i was still in the asian mood when i found an ASIAN stiry fry in the freezer!!! WOOOOOO

and TILAPIA's! YAYYYY

so i cooked those bad boys up

and ate my dads steamed veggies from his meal. because he doesn't eat green things..

then i micro'ed a sweet potater because i love them & have missed them so much and mashed her up with some salt & a dash o cinnamon.. oops, ketchup on the side though! don't hate i loveee that salty dude!

finished product....

i'm off to my best friend's house to watch CHANGELING with her and her mommy

& eat ICE CREAM! i have a huge hankering for ice cream right about now & its like 18 degrees out. hahaha

2009-02-28T10:25:00.002-05:00

had my nightly popcorn.. i was too lazy to put grapes in their own bowl so i threw them in the popcorn one.. and then just picked them out... oneee by one.

i woke up reallyyyy hungrrry!

and to find out my camera screen CRACKED so i cannot see any picture that i take, i must take them at random and hope for the best.

sigh.

i really wanted french toast so i whipped some up...

hmm i eyeballed the eggbeaters, a bit more then 1/4 cup..

tonsa cinnamon,

abbout 1/4 cup skim milk

2 tbsp vanilla extract

literally i took 5 pictures of it cooking only to realize JUST now as they uploaded that i overshot the skillet.

well done!

in the back is a bowl of homemade applesauce (the last of it =/)

fresh berries with a dollop of fage!

this was just what i needed.

but afterward i wasn't full!!!

so i had another bowl of berries with whipped cream & some B'nPB. that always makes me smile

anyone have good homemade applesauce recipes :)

heheh

2009-02-27T23:32:00.003-05:00

i just realized i posted all of my pictures backwards...

so i came home early from the dance...

the thing is, i don't drink alcohol.. it's how my brother passed. i don't feel comfortable around it just yet & all of my friends were about to go out to bars, etc. etc. i'm tired.. today i'm really missing tim for some reason and i was HUNGRY.

i love my haircut, i looked good. it was great to see everyone. but i just wasn't in the mood to be out until 3 am. i don't think i'm ready to do that just yet

ED wise & i'm still upset over my brother...

so my mommy came to get me.. shes literally the best

i walked in on these pups!

fighting!

anyway..

i went to my best friends house and we munched on carrot sticks before the dance , we were like rabbits. hahah (i thought i would be going out after the dance for the hibachi & bar crawll.. littttle did i know..)

so i came home RAVENOUS and ate the rest of my parents dinner...

top is sea bass & shrimp scampi!!!! with really really delicious veggies!

i do NOT know what this was but it was OUT OF THIS WORLLLD

it looks like spinach fettucini?

then it had some tomato-y garlic sauce with sauteed eggplant and mushrooms. oh my <3>

i just had 1 cup homemade applesauce which is the greatest comfort food. i forgot how much better it is homemade!!

i had asian broccoli w/ spicy mustard this afternoon.. i've been getting hungry a lot lately....

& thus picking when i shouldn't be!

okay.. i'm off to eat popcorn & watch some t.v. with molls (my sister! )

2009-02-21T13:31:00.000-05:00

THANKSSS JENNY! for the cuteeee blog help! AHH you changed yours too! SOOO CUTE!

new look, new week, new EJ

2009-02-21T12:57:00.005-05:00

okay. well maybe not a NEW EJ. ( i refer to myself in the 3rd person way too much..)

i seriously have missed being a bloggie!

i don't know what i will do when i go on my other future travels

okay anywaaaaay

i woke up and was all for going to the gym BEFORE breakfast but i honeslty just cannot motivate myself to do that on lazy saturday & sunday mornings anymore

i would rather wake up take my time make my breakfast drink my coffee watch HGTV (yeah.. i know. ) digest and THEN go to the gym! but by then it's around 11 am and all the good classes are over with :/

so then i have to workout by myself which i don't really like! well i do, but i really want to try like a zumba class or spinning.

or YOLATES..

sounds kinda cool, no?

anywayyy breakfast was wayy too good to pass up

2 tortilla factory tortillas

which i heated up with cinnamon & a tbsp of pumpkin each

then i plopped on some peach preserves and a hunka lunka berries

melted a tsp of B'npb in the microo and drizzled that on top with some maple syrup

oh i forgot there were grapes too

then i had half a naner with 1 tbsp B'nPB and cinnamon

as if that werent enough...

i had about 1/2 cup pumpkin with berries heated up and delicious with cinnamon and syrup and the other half of the nanerrr!

(not yet pictures)

i got a lot of questions about my whipped peanut butter.

here's the deal

it's only made by PETER PAN! and its soooo good, and creamy! it's hard to find i honestly think they only sell them in the south because it's the only places i've ever been able to get them

when i go down to hilton head in the summer i loaddd up

and when i go to charleston i would go to piggly wiggly and scour the store for it...

anyway

it's kinda llike the cream cheese concept .. when you whip cream cheese ya know?

not as thick and creamy but airy and light and oh so delectable!

okay guys this may be a little long.. read if you like.. its alot about me and my journey....

today.. i got my mom back to the gym for the first time.. back in summer of 2007 my mom was chosen to be a weight loss contestant on the "Mike and Juliet Show".. after 4 kids and 4 c sections my mom needed that extra boost to get her figure back.. she was ALWAYS a size four before she had her kiddies!

yay kids.

anyway.. i really wanted to see my mom succeed so i became her gym buddy and partner, i figrued i would lose the extra weight i had too.. so thats when i started counting calories and really looking at everything i ate.. while my mom kept things in moderation i started restricting more and more .. i even started giving up our beloved diet buddy * ants on a log* raisins & pb on celery sticks and would vie for simply the log minus the pb. it was bad, i got bad and as soon as my mom actually lost her weight she decided to keep it going.. but then i got really sick

and she got really worried about me

i don't think she thought it was fair for her to continue losing weight when i needed to gain so she stopped going to the gym to be with me. literally she was the greatest and the most supportive mother.. i was put into the EDU inpatient at somerset medical in somerville, new jers & my mother made the hour trip .. every day. to be with me.

on sundays when visiting hours spanned 5 hours in the afternoon and another hour and a half after our dinner she would wait around the area for 2 hours to come back and see me.. she literally left my brothers & sister at home for that month i was in the hospital .. leaving them to themselves..

but then in october 2008 my brother passed away.. and my mom, my family, went through more then i thought we would ever have to. my brother was my role model i loved and love him very very much but my mom let herself go.. she gained more weight then she ever has in her life and that made her even more depressed.. now she cries over timothy and over herself, her health is in danger now too.. though we lost him, i don't want to lose her too.

so today was the first day i could get my mom back to the gym with me..

it's bittersweet because she and i really haven't worked out together since me and ED were such good pals but its different now.. i'm there to support her and bring her up and hold her up when shes falling down, i'm there for her like she was there for me.. when she gave up her opportunity while i was away... i love my mom more then anyything she really is my hero..

pre-ED my sister molly, my best friend danielle, me, my mom. at my sweet 16 in may 2007

smack in the middle of ED in london April 2008

me and mom and molly

love

bye.

try out new flavors and such

so when we get older as gay as it sounds we want to start a little quaint brunch spot in greenwich village called "nooks & crannies"

so gay i know

but it would feature all our our concotrions!

like my dark choco dream cheesecake wonder

(fage, dark choco dreams & some reg. crunchy pb, honey, raisins, banana, coco pebbles & pb puffins to garnish)

or my pumpkin "cheesecake" delight!

-pumpkin & fage swirled together with some honey, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice & nutmeg

- chopped apple warmed with cinnamon & sugar & graham cracker crumb topping!

white chocolate waffle sammie!

- a bit of melted white chocolate into some greek yogurt a dollop of white choco dreams & mini butterscotch chips

-2 piping hot multi grain waffles smooshed with maple butter, thin layer of sliced banana & topped with the concotion!

-drizzle honey or syrup & HOT DAMN!

oh the ideas & thoughts go on and on and on!

wishfulll thinking!

my best friend and i are thinking of documenting our trip & maybe the rest of the year

calling it:

"Senioritis"

hahahahah!

silly geese we are.

CIAO loves

what a BLAH night.

2009-02-09T17:28:00.003-05:00

doesn't look that good. but it was SLAMMIN.
seriously you need to try it..

heres the dealio:
-1/2 cup pumpkin on the bottom heated up for 15 seconds in the micro with some craisins, cinnamon & a dassh (or two) of salt
-then i made an omlette with 3/4 cup of egg beaters
-added corn & black beans & orange bell pepper
placed it oh so delicately over the warm pumpkin, added a bit more salt, some cumin & garlic powder
(really just add whatever you desire)

really really good.

side salad with red cabbage (which i'm addicted to.)

RISE AND SHINE.
i tried overnight oats.. they didn't taste any different teheheh
1 packet mccann's maple brown sugah oatmeal
1/4 cup choco unsweetened almond breeze
1/2 cup pumpkin
a plethora of berries & a naner
cinnamon, syrup!
notice the spoon, the final remnants of dark choco dreams :(
& better 'n pb<3 mi true love.

okay so heres where the necessary help comes in.
for snack at school i have a huge orange
then for lunch i had a tossed salad added some strawberries, balsamic chicken and leftover corn & beans from last night
with an apple on the side.

well. i dont know if it's my metabolism but i was still hungry after!
i waited until the end of school & about 30 minutes into my track warm up i had to go HOME i was so hungry!!!! i couldn't finish the warmup!

when i got home i dug into berries, cottage cheese & choco sauce....

followed up with a hugeee salad loaded with protein! (chicken, beans, corn. etc)

please please please ANY advice you can give me

i have a nutritionist and am following her meal plan but honestly its so frustrating

i feel like i'm never "full" after any of my meals and just keep picking..

but because i pick i gain more weight then necessary then i tell myself in my mind that i'm running track so it should be okay,

gah. i hate ed, he's still around sometimes but not so much.. i'm still obviously conscious of what i eat & how i look .

i just don't know what to do!

why am i not getting full?

how do i know when i'm *comfortably satisfied* and not stuffed!!

anyone?

R.D.'s?

R.D.'s in training?

EJJJJJJJJJJ stop suckinggg at blogging!
okay last night i was in the mood for fruit @ 10 PM! i just got a hunger pang and was like man, i cannot sleep without it.. so i went for light
a bowl of mixed fruits with some fage & cinnamonnn yum yum eat er up!

so then i woke up to deliciousnesssss
a tortilla with PB & J and nana, raisins, strawbs
and in the back is some fage with raisins, strawbs & fiber one fo crunch

midmorning snackerOO was a bag O white cheddah popcorn! i bought at schoolio.
(i don't hate it.)

for lunch i reallized i packed my wrap and literally wrapped it without taking a pic
but i had some cut veggies
1/2 orange (my friend ate the other half)
an apple
& a la tortilla wrap with turkey, lettuce, honnnay mustardd

oop. after school i was quite famished
a little woozy
so before i made this concoction. i munch a lunched on a pear!
actually i didn't munch, because the juices were dribbling down my face & i looked like a complete fool

then i had asian veggies & a boca burgerrrrr

DINNAH.
FAJITAS ay ay ay!
sizzzleee peppers & carrots & broc

cooked myself a larrrge chicken breast

and put half of it on a wrap!! i couldn't actually wrap it though
i had a side salad and the other half of it went theree...

i'm about to eat some cantaloupe, because it's sitting there

then munch on this!

today, i ran 5.25 miles. i cannot believe i did it.. when i finished i didn't even feel dead or anything, i felt ACCOMPLISHED! i was so proud :)

well, back track

i had a really bad day, didn't do well on my honors physics exam..the teachers notice i'm slacking with senioritis.. my anemia is kickin in because my pills are literally vanished from sight. (my b)

i've just been upset over my brother & life lately (see my first post if you're lost)

and my track coach would NOT let me go home.

apparently we were going to run outside in 7 degrees and i forgot my spandex so he goes, "then run around inside the school, by yourself."

and i started balling like a baby, it was just one of those days...

he wouldn't let me go home and rest and nap or anything until i started crying so hard that i couldn't compose myself, i ran out to my car and left my sweats and everything at school (thus i was practically nakie..not cute) so then i did a little gym sesh.. always better

came home & my daddy wanted to take me to watch my high school play our rivals in bball. so that was good

now i'm thinking of studying.. but i can't

oh well

i think i'll just eat cantaloupe & poppppy corn and read bloggies.

helpppp

2009-02-04T20:20:00.003-05:00

oops after my omlette i had a babbyy apple with some fage & a litttlle bit o cereal. i'm sorry i wasss hungggry stil!

WARNING: CONFESSION.
okay. i have a severe phobia of carbs with my dinner such as rice (ehh, well i hate rice actually).. pasta, potatoes anything else though, i honestly just think, if i can eat SOMETHING else instead of that carb i will be more satisfied.

for instance, i normally have protein lotsaa veggies & then finish it off with fruit & yogurt or cottage cheese, or pb&j on a rice cake to take place of the carb i SHOULD've had.
my nutritionist calls this "compensation" and shes veryy angry with me for it :( and i love her so i don't want to anger her...

example, look below

large chicken breast with green beans, broc & red pepper
then i had popcorn to round it out... when i could've had something that makes more sense
i guess i just always want something sweet or salty or satisfying and am scared that if i eat the carb with my meal i will eat the sweet thing TOO
and then we ALLL KNOW that before bed i NEED to have popcorn so then i feel as if i'm overeating.

gah sorry for the vent

theres the popcorn

and i'll be having more later because i'm hooked.

but anyone have tips? i tend to PICK a lot around meals and can't stop and that's because i never know if i'm full or hungry because i eat so many veggies that expand my tummy tum.

pweeease heellp me
:(

ya killin me smalls.

2009-02-04T16:35:00.002-05:00

hmm it looks like steamed broc, some beets & peps, an egg & 2 egg whites .. black beans on da bottom & a littttle bit O salmon. i'm just saying. it was REALLY GOOD. mahahah

enough said, love those chewy bars. i feel like a kidddo again

hello breakfast.. i was so hungry just wanted to scarf her down so this was picture PRE milk in coffee. but just picture that lovely abundance of caffeine (sp?) QUENCHED with the creaminess of milkay soft deliciousness.

that was a really random snack last night.. i'm gonna guess on this and say it was a jello, bluebs, fage & choco syrup.

then i had popcorn. OBVI

hello midmorning snackeroo of apples, raisins, cinnamon & FAGE...

i proceeded to eat my entire fridge this afternoon.

so i've been a bad blogger.
sue me.

yesterday i didn't eat lunch til arounddd 3;30 so when i had the choice to eat dinner @ 6 or after my sister's play i stupidly chose after thinking it was an hour and a half we'd be eatin by 8;45.

WRONG- O EJ.

the stupid play started half hour late and by the time it started i was alllready gettin grumbly.

and then by the time it ended (i'll spare the details) but i reallly had to go numba 2! and didn't want to stop to eat, just wanted to go in the comforts of my own home..

by the way the play was The Who's Tommy & it was purrrty good for a high school production

so when i got home i was a starvin marvin & needed something quick.

thus i improvised & made an omlette with the rest of the egg beaters we had, about 2.5 oz of salmonn, 1/3 cup of black beans, red peppa & then when it was doneee i found mesculin & was like DUDE, this would've been GOOD in it, so why not put the OMLETTE OVERRR IT..

maximum volume..

me likey volume.

i'm one of those people who can't eat eggs without ketchup....

story of my life.

here's the protein beauty.

then i ate a carrot

& a pickle

blah.

about an hour or so latta after i digesttted a bitt.

cannottt finish the night off without popcorn & thats a poor picture of pear with some craisssins & cottage chizzzzle

MORNING GLORY's

i woke up prettttty hungry this morning

and the pups were running around & i just wanted to FEAST

so i came down stairs in the mood for an omletteO and found out that in the middle of the night my mom went to feed the doggies & grabbed a can of pumpkin instead of puppy chow & so she opened it.. left it on the counter & said USE THIS in your breakie!

FINE! (but i really wasn't that angry. i was excited)

so i made my feast

some oatmeal (sugah free packet. they AINT TOO SHABBY THOUGH!)

I eyeballed the water and almond breeze i put in

with pumpkin

and berrrries galore

and raisins

and pumpkin pie spice

oops and a scoop of better'npb. yeah me and my brother scarf these bad boys down by the jar.

then i had the remains of the pumpkin can with MORE berries and raiisssins and hidden fiber one dudes & a dollop of fage as my topping

oh andd cantttaloupe

& coffee.

seriously. i need to eat in the morning or i am ANGRY

up close and personal with my oattts

okay..you'd think after all that i'd be full.

yeah i thought so too. but i wasn't even full i was like .. sort of satisfied?

so then i just finished off the rest of that cantaloupe.

sorry.

but I LOVE FRUIT & FOOD & LALALA

today i think i have soccer practice but i donttt really want to go

and i mayy have homework to do but senioritis tells me i should NOT do it

and then i have a supah bowl partay lata on..

i'll try to surreptitiously take pics of the foodies but it will be a challenge!

i will take a pic of my outfit because.. true story . it's sexy.

k LOVE YA
