A conflict of interests
The moment I opened my eyes (at the ungodly hour of 7am) this morning, I felt a dull, throbbing pain above my left eye. I looked around and felt my face to make sure that I had not just been stabbed, and then as my mind became clearer I realized that no, it’s just the same headache I had ALL yesterday. And it’s here to help me welcome in the day! Aww.
The culprit?
This evil guy was delivered to us yesterday, and right after it was assembled I jumped on and had an intense workout. I was feeling good and sweating buckets – and for the first time I didn’t feel gross about it because I was in my own home! Well, it’s my sister’s home, but that’s not the point. I didn’t have to suffer through the awkwardness of having strangers look at my boob sweat and gosh, that’s a swell feeling.
As I was huffing and puffing and sweating from every orifice, I got motivated to set a goal of losing 10 pounds this summer. I did many calculations in my head about what my goal weight would be, and what size pants I want to be able to fit into, and so on and so on. I was feeling rejuvenated.
Two hours later, as I was preparing to go to my five hour class, The Headache struck. I know that it’s probably because I’m dehydrated, but I’ve been taking Advil and drinking water ever since. Maybe I’m simply allergic to exercise? I don’t know, it might be necessary to rethink this whole losing weight craze.
It also doesn’t help that I just made this peanut butter pie:
I have good intentions but absolutely zero willpower.
