Why I rarely drink caffeine...

In case you didn't know - caffeine is highly addictive. That's right. I'm sure you're SHOCKED. This is just one of the reasons why I rarely drink caffeine.. maybe twice a week. Maybe. Well, last night I drank the equivalent of about 4 cans of coke... and then spent the next 4 hours just lying awake in my bed feeling all twitchy/jittery and panic-attacky... thanks to that MASSIVE influx of caffeine right before bed here I am at work 4 hours later feeling a little like I'm going to die. No more massive amounts of caffeine before bed for this girl... unless I have the opportunity to catch up on lost sleep the next day.

Now, the other irritating thing: there's no way I'm realistically going to the gym this afternoon. I will HAVE to have a nap. Lest I spend my workout with migraine auras. Because that's how my body works. Woo. -.-

Okay, so I know I have to post 2 days of stats - I forgot to hop on the scale yesterday (AGAIN), but I did manage to remember to do it this morning... fully dressed as I was walking out the door for work. Which doesn't really give me an accurate number. Fully dressed I was at 201.8 - which probably really means like 199. So, I packed on about 3 pounds over the last couple weeks. I'm cool with that, it's the holidays, it was somewhat expected. Next week as life-in-general returns to normal (hopefully along with my sleep schedule) I'll be in the gym 3-4 days a week and back on my normal high-vegetation/low-calorie diet.. instead of the current eat-whatever-I-feel-like-'cause-it's-the-holidays-bitches diet.

Stats for 12/27:

  • total calories: 1806 - including some wine which made me feel like the walking dead YESTERDAY morning... it's been a rough week for me. Fo' sho'. 
  • calories burned: 350 - got a great workout in at the gym, lots of weight training which felt AMAZING. 
  • 1 cigarette
  • 1am bedtime - eeesh...
  • $4 on lunch ($36 left for the week)
Stats for 12/28:
  • total calories: 2000 - stupid coka-cola ruining my sleep AND my calorie-count... I maybe would have done better sticking with the Mich Ultra
  • no workout
  • 8 cigarettes *wince*
  • got in bed around midnight... didn't fall asleep til about 4am.. *headdesk*
  • $11 lunch/drinks ($25 left for the week)

  1. Actually, Mich Ultra would likely have been around the same number of calories. Isn't that sad?

    Coke-140 calories for 12 oz

    Michelob--92 calories for 12 oz (That can't be right...is it a light beer?)
