I Feel So Dirty.

I need to write this post to remind me how awfully dirty and miserable I am right now.

Eww! I am so disgusted with myself.
My belly has literally been stuffed with nasty fast food and junk food since late Thursday.
Yikes, right?
Pizza, cheeseburger, McDonald's, Sonic, Taco Hell, Wendy's, KFC.
Yes.
ALL of that.
No wonder I am miserable right now.
Totally miserable.
And so disgusted with myself.

Here the plan for the rest of this week.
 I am replacing this:

with lots of this....

Why did I even choose the nasty junk food to begin with? The second picture is visually so appealing and happy and stimulating instead of that nasty brown picture on the top. Argh!! I am going to flush all these nasty bits in my stomach out with lots of fruits and vegetables!!!

Relaxing Monday and looking ahead

I am sitting here with a bowl of fresh fruits - a medley of mango, apple, banana, and tangerine. It tastes so yummy - citrusy, sweet, crunchy, smooth. Lots of flavors and is definitely a very satisfying dessert. I am lucky that my parents are healthful eaters and instilled in us the idea of healthful eating and a diet rich in vegetables and fruits. When I finally do grow up, I want to be a parent like they did and teach my kids to eat well.

My best friend in Singapore left a message on my Facebook saying that she ran her second 5K. She also says that I was her inspiration for starting to run. 
I am so proud of her. She started running after my incessant running updates on Facebook. She works hard at her job and is very good at it. And I am sure this running is good for her to clear her head and relieve some pressure and stress.  She can do anything. And that's my best friend.

 Here's a picture of me and Kris in Sonoma, California (Summer 2009)

After supper with  Keith at the office, I was tired but managed to stop by the gym and stepped on the elliptical machine for a mile and a half. It was good. I am glad I didn't go straight home after the meal because I know I will be laying in bed, reading a book or watching a documentary.
Looking ahead: I plan on doing 3 miles tomorrow and Thursday and 4 miles on Saturday. That will be 10 miles this week.
