Being Fabulous - on a Diet.

I’ll be starting my diet back up on January 2nd.

I decided to make a new tumblr for my new diet.

Follow me on there if you want. I’ll be posting everything there from now on.

So I was just at Hanukkah dinner at my grandma’s house. And one of the appetizers she served was simply fantastic, and I have to share this recipe with you all!

1 avocado
1/4 cup pineapple, chopped small
1/8 cup carrots, chopped small
1 tablespoon fat free sour cream
a few sprigs of dill

Basically, you scoop out the avocado out of the shell, chop it up, mix it with the pineapples, carrots, and sour cream, and put it back into the avocado shell. Decorate with the dill sprigs.

It’s absolutely delicious, and it’s pretty healthy too!

I really wish I had gotten a picture of it, cause it looked almost as good as it tasted.

Mexican food, movie marathon, and pajamas.

It will be epic. I’m going to order one of the massive black bean burritos, bro. And I’m going to demand we be fat together and on top of everything else, split an order of chili nachos.

Today was so completely awesome!

My mom and I had tickets to go see The Nutcracker at the New York Ballet at 2 PM. We drove into the city and parked, and wound up having about an hour to kill after we picked up our tickets.

So we went to a restaurant across the street from Lincoln Center, I forget what it was called. We had some dessert there. I had a slice of cheesecake topped with fresh strawberries and chocolate sauce. It was amazing.

Then we went to the ballet. It was absolutely gorgeous, and we had awesome seats. The costumes were so colorful and bright and pretty, and the props were also gorgeous. Overall a great experience, with beautiful music and dancing and just everything.

Then we went to dinner at this restaurant called Atlantic Grill, over on Broadway and 64th street. I wound up having lobster gnocchi there. It was basically gnocci, chunks of lobster, roasted chestnuts, butternut squash, and arugula in a delicious wine sauce. It was to die for. And the portion was just right - not huge, but not so tiny that it won’t fill you up.

So yeah, it was a nice evening. We came home kind of recently and had some green tea, and I’ve been relaxing in my pajamas since. :3

Totally enjoying the holidays now that I’m done with the semester and have nothing to stress over for a few weeks.

Also, I want to assure everyone not to worry. Starting January 2nd, I’m back on a diet and exercise routine. I’ll be weighing in and taking measurements again and pretty much starting my whole diet over. I don’t know how I’ll do with exercise in the beginning, because I have a medical condition at the moment which drains my energy completely, so the exercise might have to wait until I fully recover. But we shall see.

AE is having a sale this weekend. 40% off online and in stores, on American Eagle, Aerie, etc. They have a special code you could use at checkout:  39427841

So yeah. Just letting everyone know about this. I know I’ll be shopping my little butt off tonight, with my mom’s approval. I already pre-selected twelve items I want, which will wind up costing me just 212 dollars, instead of the 353 it would have cost me without the sale. :D

Also, this is only in the US, from what I understand.

Happy shopping!

I’m back up to my starting weight of 130 pounds.

I am a failure.

But fuck it. I’m just going to start over in January.

I have too much shit going on right now to even think about making time to go work out, because there’s three weeks left to the semester and I have a ton of work to get done, plus I’m at my internship two full days a week now.

Starting January, I’ll just be student teaching on a daily basis, 7:30 AM to 3:00 PM. So I’ll have more time in my life to cook healthy meals and go to the gym every day.
