Weight may only be just a number...

...but it sure as hell makes me furious when it goes up!!

I've been in a bit of a funk this week. Good things have happened, then bad things, then good things again, etc etc etc. One of the things which got me all riled up (and sadly to say, was hardly in the mood for work) was my stupid weight.

I've been eating a lot of processed foods ever since I started work. Cornflakes, cocoa pops, granola bars, ham and cheese sandwiches, yogurt--almost always for breakfast and lunch. They were convenient, low-fat/low-calorie and long lasting (outside of the fridge, that is :P). 

But then I thought to myself, "hey, this can't be too healthy even though I'm losing weight". So fine, I went and bought myself some veggies. Broccoli, potatoes and sweet potatoes to be exact since I'm like a toddler with picky tastes for green stuff. Learned the nuke 'em-season 'em-box 'em method of preparation and for a week I ate all these healthy foods for lunch.

Oh, what a happy clam I was! What could be healthier than this, ay?

Stepped on a scale. Oh man!! I gained two pounds out of nowhere! As if that wasn't bad enough, not only am I still unable to get rid of those two mysterious poundage, it seems to keep on climbing and I feel bloated like a whale all the time!

Bah, this has got to be a cruel, cruel joke. 

This is some serious setback to my goal of reaching 120lbs by the time I jet off to Florida. Initially, losing 3 pounds was easy peasy. Now I have to lose 5 pounds and IT'S PISSING ME OFF!!!!!!!

Grrr!
