Day 21 - Hello, Sunshine!

Hello lovelies!
Well, this is it.
My family and I leave for Belize, Cozumel, and the Grand Cayman Islands at like 4 am tomorrow, which to me, will be tonight.
I am happy and sad at the same time.
Happy because I will get to explore new places and burn tons of calories doing it.
Sad because I wanted to be smaller by now and I am not.
I totally binged last night.
Easter candy is the spawn of Satan! -_-
But it has thrown me into a new mindset, which is good.
Every time I see a bit of food, I think to myself:
"If I were thin RIGHT NOW, would I eat that?"
Nine times out of 10, the answer is NO.
Therefore, I will not eat it, simply because if I were thin and perfect, it would be a no-no.
And eventually, I WILL be thin and perfect.
My food choices can also be dictated by another simple question:
"What would a thin version of me eat?"
Which is why I threw away the remains of my Easter candy this morning, and why I turned down the coconut crunch cake donuts that my dad bought for breakfast!
The donuts were mini ones, and there were six in a pack.
The whole thing was worth 380 calories!
Thin me would not waste that many calories on one food item alone!
I am thinking about enjoying some crackers, because for some reason, my tummy has been upset with me ever since I got home from university.
Part of me thinks it may be my body adjusting to the switch from dining hall food to home cooking.
But another part of me wonders if the power of my mind is causing my body to act that way.
I am always telling myself how I do not need certain types of food, that they are disgusting and will only serve to undo the hard work I have put in.
So I wonder: Is my mind in some way telling my body how to respond to food?
Is that possible?
I am intrigued now.
I am going to go research this.
And pack.
Yeah, packing would be good.
Last thing I need to start off my vacation is my dad being mad at me because I am not packed.
Let us hope the 85 degree weather every day does not burn me to a crisp; I am a natural redhead [strawberry blonde] so I am as fair-skinned as they come!
Guess I will be loading up on the sunscreen.
Yay?
Oh, and let us not forget the flying.
I hate flying.
Simply because the pressure in the cabin always messes with my head and gives me the worst headaches known to man.
Other than that, I think this will be fun, when I am not wondering if people are looking at me because I am so fat and should not be wearing the clothes I have chosen to wear.
I am taking SHORTS outfits.
Do you KNOW how long it has been since I have worn shorts?
YEARS.
And I am not too keen on wearing them now, but I do not want to sweat to death, because that is icky!
Haha, what can I say?
I am vain. :P
Anywho, I am going to go start packing now.
*sigh*
Have a fantastic day, lovelies!
Hang in there and stay strong! <3
