Precooked Chicken Breast Strips - When the chicken pieces have parts of fat or gristle in the chicken... if I'm paying $4 for a small package of cooked meat, can't it be quality?
Canned Asparagus - When there are stalks as hard and un-chewable as bark.
"Fresh String-less Snap Peas" - When they really aren't string-less.
SICK!

Constant Struggle
So, I'm trying this whole "eating healthy" and "losing weight" thing... AGAIN.
It's so freaking hard. I seriously make a decent effort, and then just completely fail, like pretty much every time. They always say that as long as you keep trying you are not a failure... but it seems to me that if I "fall of the wagon" constantly, then its a failure. Alas, I continue this deranged cycle back and forth of losing weight, gaining it back, feeling depressed about it and then getting inspired again. I'm sure its wreaking havoc on my mental stability, but what else is a girl to do?
At least I've finally noticed a little improvement in my rock climbing since all this non-sense started a few months ago. I dropped a few pounds and I feel as though I might have actually moved up a grade. The last time I was at the gym I managed to top rope 3 different 5.9 routes, cleanly. That is the first time I have ever done that, so that was pretty exciting. I hope to continue improving my climbing skills, that is one of my main drivers in the weight loss thing, I am just tired of sucking at climbing compared to everyone else. I hope that I can stick with it and keep improving this winter, as opposed to letting hibernation tendencies kick in and balloon up all over again.
Wish me luck!
