fail

1. every morning i wake up and tell myself:

"Elyse, you are not going to eat lots of carbs today! Let's get real, lady!"

then i head downstairs and eat a bowl of cereal and that's that. i fail. and that's all i really have to say about that. i should really invest in some yogurt or something. or eggs? yeah, i really do know how to eat right. there's no excuse for this behavior.


2. every evening i sit around and feel out of shape and i say,

"Tomorrow I will go on a run! No more 'Yellow Wallpaper' Elyse! Fit and healthy Elyse!"

and every morning i wake up and say,

"'Yellow Wallpaper' Elyse? What an inept analogy; you don't have post-partum. Settle down, honey, just do some crunches."

and that's what i do. fail.
