OPERATION: I NEED A CODENAME!

so yes. im conducting an operation. why? because it was about time. please do not try to argue with me or say nice things, but i am getting fat! REALLY! I AM! especially after the EASTER BINGE!(two huge meals, an unbelievable amount of candy and other junk food). but yeah...my self-confidence is low because of it, and i need to take action. again: dont argue with me. i am not gonna get all bulimic or anorexic or atkinsic. i am just going to try and have some self-control and make an effort to: 1) eat healthier and 2)exercise more often (at all). i know this is boring as hell to read about but recording it will help strengthen my resolve... right? so what im gonna do is...

1) eat less crap. i am a complete sugar junkie and i think thats a lot of my problem. im officially DRAMATICALLY reducing my candy/other sugary treats intake. DRAMATICALLY. as in my-easter-candy-will-get-stale-before-i-can-finish-it dramatically. it hurts me on the inside to do this, but i have to.

2) eat less. i eat when i am bored and this causes me to eat way more than i need to. added to this the fact that what i eat is always bad, this is an issue. so it will stop. the secret to this, ive learned, is to keep busy. and take naps.

3)exercise four times a week at least. i just pulled that number out of my butt. but yeah, i went running today and it was a good thing to do. i really havent been moving at all in the past few months, so i need to do that. exercise is good for you! in so many ways! yay!

and i suppose thats it. who knows, maybe this will actually work and i will get skinnier... maybe my tummy will start to go away! maybe i will be teh hotness! maybe not. i fear i lack the resolve and that i am not taking desperate enough measures. maybe i will add skim milk to my plan (cause it will make SO much difference...). man i would love for this to work. it would be great to be all skinny and cute. cause honestly, i feel soooo ugly recently. like, its getting bad... but hopefully this will make me feel better about myself, if nothing else. being healthier is supposed to make you feel better, right?

the first day of this plan went well. too well, i think... i forgot to eat breakfast, so i grabbed an oatmeal bar, which i neglected to eat. and then at lunch i was doing math so i never got around to eating. meaning i had only one meal today... which was rather small... and a bowl of cereal. i think tomorrow i will be hungry. that will be tricky. i am going to have to start packing lunch again... i need to go to the grocery store or trader joes and get fun healthy food... whole wheat bread... im in the mood for starfruit for some reason. and i need smoothiemaking stuff too...

this could get complicated.

so does anyone want to give my operation a name?

music: tommy!!! my uncle who is AWESOME bought me the who album just because. its soooo freaking sweet. i like it better than the play version because its less happy... really. and its brilliant. reading all about the who in the seventies made me super jealous i wasnt there. apparently their tommy concerts were mindblowing. and roger daltrey was supposedly a total sex god as tommy (in concert, not the movie)... why?!!? WHY AM I IN THIS GENERATION?!??!
