Relationship status: I have Chinese leftovers in my fridge

When is Chinese Food a good answer?

Probably when you're laying in bed not wanting to cook or leave the house. Hello, sunflower seeds! It's Wednesday, it's snowing, I'm in my third cup of coffee and eating one of those awful breakfast burritos that I enjoy. As you remember, on Monday I talked all this crap about trying to eat better, feeling bloated and trying to seek some motivation but it was all talk, as usual. I've been eating terribly, from sushi to breakfast at 8:00PM and last but not least, Lo Mein in bed. How do I have the nerve to complain about gaining weight if I keep doing that kind of shit? I'm your average twenty-something that spends most of their income on gas and food. Even when we do the "adult" thing and spend over $300 on groceries, we end up at Chipotle because we're too hangry or too lazy to cook. To be honest with you, I just don't like cooking! It's not that I don't know how to or I'm terrible at it, simply I don't enjoy the whole process of preparing a meal. In fact, this is hereditary. My mother hates cooking and she only did it because we needed to eat. As a matter of fact, if someone didn't like the menu, that wasn't her problem. From her, I learned that on weekends the kitchen is closed and sandwiches are always an answer.  

Also, why is it that when you're in a long-term relationship you gain at least fifteen pounds? Yes, you get comfortable and eating in bed is the best way to spend a Friday night but come on! In my experience, it all went downhill once I turned 23 years old and left that YOLO life. Now, it's all about the fake promises to myself and avoiding the mirrors and for a narcissist, that's kind of hard. If you're like me, you like to blame your partner for all the negative things going on with your body and that confused look on Ry's face is everything. Woooow... Writing that made me realized that I'm a terrible human being. 

So, as the day ends and #ThrowbackThursday approaches, here is some advice to make your life easier. Use those photos that Facebook will bring back as motivation if you want to lose weight, do not go to the Explore tab on Instagram to get bombarded with "fit" models and more importantly, don't eat the Chinese leftovers in the fridge. Afterall, you can start "dieting" at any point of the week or continue the eternal lie of "I'll start in on Monday" and it's completely fine.
