M.B.O.A.

Missing because of action.

I left last Thursday to go to Boston for the weekend to see some friends and some boy I kind of like a little bit.  It was a GREAT weekend filled with hiking adventures, hanging around Boston and fun.  Once I returned home, life has been non-stop.  I joined a coed indoor soccer league here in NYC and last night was our first game.  My team is a "free agent" team meaning everyone shows up knowing no one on their team.  Awesome.  I have never been so nervous for something that is supposed to be fun in my entire life.  Luckily I wasn't the worst, obviously far from the best, but I didn't completely embarrass myself and my team won 6-4.  Today, every part of my body hurts.  I feel like I was thrown into a concrete wall a few times, oh wait, I was.  Can't wait for the next game. 

As for the diet.  I have 2 lbs to go which is shocking since I feel like I haven't been that extreme.  Maybe I did have some weight to lose.  But to ensure that I jump on that scale safe I am eating cabbage soup all week.  I am not following the "official" cabbage soup diet found here because honestly it sounds like a lot of food.  I think it would've been great to follow if it was week one of this whole adventures in weightloss fun, but I can't chance how my body might react to 10-20 ounces of beef on day 5 or 2-3 steaks on day 6.  Boys, thats a lot of meat.   The soup itself is actually very tasty and my version is about 62 calories a cup, maybe even less.  I made sure to make mine spicy and I left out the bouillon cubes.  Too much sodium.    Every day this week my mom and I have been mapping out my revenge on dieting by planning every meal from breakfast, lunch, dinner to happy hour apps that will start the minute I get off the plane for Thanksgiving.  Can. Not. Wait.


Happy cabbage Wednesday!
