delicious and pure evil...
the cupcake, not the girl.
So, the past few days have officially been a food write-off. Yesterday we had an amazing time at Alex having a skate. We hit the skate park, much to the chagrin of the young bloods already skateboarding and biking there. Oh well, it was quite fun. There was much skating, promo, laughs and, oh yeah, food! I honestly can't remember all that I ate. Suffice to say, it can be summed up in two cupcakes topped with yellow icing, marshmellows, smarties and hundreds 'n thousands. Urrgh. I could feel my stomach growing under my tiny pirate dress which, unsurprisingly, got shorting as the day progressed and my tummy swelled. I had to come home and sleep off my food hangover. Sugar no longer perks me up, it drives me in to a deep crash and all I can do is sleeeeeep. It makes me grumpy. I try to eat it in the company of others sometimes, either because it looks good, or I don't want to be rude, but I always feel awful immediately after eating it. Hopefully I will learn from this experience, it's been quite a while since I've gone the sugar binge and I feel I will certainly learn from it. Rolling around like an awkward pig, being unsocial and being unable to do the things you want (I cancelled plans I was really looking forward to, as well as not skating up Alex Hill which is a major self-challenge of mine) really opens your eyes to the damage you cause with all that sugar. My tummy's not too swollen today but I know it will be tomorrow for weigh-in. The other annoying thing is that yesterday after I munched all that sugar I was still hungry, hungry for real food, nutrients, and I couldn't eat for fear off exploding. It was really unacceptable for my whole body. Today I'm not really hungry. I'm kind of avoiding food, sticking to whole foods more and more, and while I've had a coffee I'll definitely be on the green or peppermint teas to swish out that horrible burning sugary aftertaste.
BUT ON TO THE GOOD NEWS! Today we start to SCRIM with BCR!!!! The ladies are coming up here to start training with us so we can work towards the bout!! I'm particularly excited about getting to train with my league, but also am quite excited that this will really open some peoples' eyes, and they will hopefully be more open to learning about tactics!! YAAAAAAY! We can start PLAYING ROLLER DERBY, not just skating and hitting! SQUEEEEEE!!!
I shall post food later depending on how I am feeling. The smell of peanut butter is making me sick, hopefully I have finally eaten my fill and can swear it off my list, too.
Hi-ho! Gotham Girls Roller Derby intraleague championship final is about to start on DNN. WOO HOO!
Dodge feelin' dodgy.
