5:2 Fast day has gone well so far- have had serious sugar cravings (*week still looms!) but have been munching on strawberries, sugar free jelly, options hot choc and a lilt zero to keep the cravings at bay a bit!
After doing some googling I found a thread confirming that stupidly tall lasses are allowed the 600cal men's allowance- phew!
Have been getting quite excited researching travel plans with G - we are now questioning if as well as are original plan of Japan, Thailand and a quick stop at a temple in Cambodia, we can maybe also manage Singapore, CHINA, Hong Kong and South Korea!? BLOODY HELL! Haha! Wouldn't be doing a proper run of them all, just a quick tourist stop for a few days or a week at each... G really wants to do China properly though and with a time limit on what seasons are suitable (we really want to be in Japan for Cherry Blossom in April but stuff gets too hot in June so bit of a restriction!) It's looking like at least a 2 month trip though
so much planning to do!!
Cheeky - G totally gets that I wouldn't let anything happen, but he still just has this huge distrust of THEM. He even said- it's not like they'd (worst case scenario) even be able to rape me as I'm so frigging strong and tall
I'm like half a foot taller than Sol! Anyway- it's totally a feelings thing with him and I get that- you can't force the feelings away even if they are irrational, hence why he doesn't get angry at me spending time with them... but he gets noticeably tense and it does make me sad
CheeseT - Totally get you there, I'd be suspicious as hell of any hot skinny b*tches G hung around... Well, I WOULD have been maybe two years ago but now I'd be like "OMG, G HAS FRIENDS *cries with happiness*" LOL. But yeah, I am totally the jealous type myself so I can relate. He knows I had a huge thing for Adam but he also knows it was a big rebound from my ex really, and that it was a 'style over substance' sort of interest
I didn't REALLY gel with him on an intellectual level, etc. Anyway, it's not that he feels threatened so much, just out of his comfort zone I guess. If G's ex was in town I'd feel uncomfortable, but I wouldn't stop him hanging out with her. He's not stopping ME either, he's just being obvious about his feelings... Not even in a confrontational way! I totally get the hesitation with Adam, but with Sol it is silly and I wish he'd push past it and realise that Sol is a cool guy and can be G's friend too. *sigh*
The fast day has been alright, just the sugar cravings that have bugged me really! Lunch stuffed me and I just had a tiny random dinner but feel fairly satisfied. I was saying to Cheeky earlier- food is such a mental thing for me, I could probably eat half the SW portions I usually do and not be hungry
but 'not hungry' isn't really the same as 'comfortably full' is it?
I think I was a bit silly to try one of these days officially on the tailwind of my period, but I was inspired by Cheeky's recent fast days and wanted to give it a go while inspired hehe
I really feel shattered today again- my energy has SUCKED this past few days! So zoned out despite sleeping fine. No exercise today either
feel guilty about that! I keep saying tomorrow but really I feel a bit ill with tiredness so when that goes away I'll kick my butt into action again.
