- Learn to enjoy that hungry feeling. It’s your new best friend!
- On a related note, calories are your new worst enemy. Practice freaking out about any calories until it becomes second nature.
- Whenever you feel hungry, just drink water. Coffee is also good; it’s practically no calories by itself…and it fills you up.
- On that note…WATER WATER WATER; you should be peeing clear ALL THE TIME.
- Drink really cold water. It uses up calories just to acclimate to your body temp. (energy…durr)
- Only fatties drink things that have calories. There are plenty of no-calorie beverages besides water, stop complaining.
- Whenever you feel hungry, you can also chew sugar-free gum instead. It will trick your stomach into thinking that you’re eating.
- When your stomach realizes that you’re not actually eating by chewing gum, spit it out! The removal of false promises will be a relief and you still won’t feel hungry.
- Eat small meals every few hours instead of big meals.
- Eat as many fruits and veggies as possible. Many of them have negative calories—they take more calories to digest than they give to you.
- Don’t eat until you’re full, just until you’re comfortable.
- No rewards. If you eat a whole cake because you had only a salad for lunch, well that’s just stupid. Rewards are for fatties.
- Same thing with justification. Eating a bucket of pasta because you had no breakfast and well, you’ll make it up tomorrow by not eating at all is…well, just stupid. Justifying is for fatties.
- Excuses too. Your boyfriend breaking up with you is NOT an excuse to eat a tub of ice cream. He probably broke up with you BECAUSE YOU”RE A FATTIE. And excuses are for fatties.
- Eat breakfast, even if it’s the only thing you eat all day.
Corey’s list of dieting tips
March 11th, 2010well i DO miss the rest of my site!
February 23rd, 2010when asked by my site manager if i wanted coreyscala.com to become only a blog, i said okay…but i didn’t realise it would suck major balls. i was getting to the point where i wanted to get serious and actually make it something worthwhile, since my whole life is about to start and it kind of goes hand-in-hand, and now that i AM at that point, it’s been knocked down a few pegs from the get-go. all because somehow the site broke and nameless site manager was too lazy (or just didn’t know how?) to fix it.
i don’t know, maybe i can work with this.
anyway, the major crisis going on in my life right now is the dreaded job search. for people who are also on the brink of graduating, and don’t plan on going to grad school just yet, this is probably familiar. it’s kind of all becoming real, albeit very slowly, as i have just started out in my search. the realness so far has been manifest in the overwhelming discovery that…there are very limited job openings for my field in rochester, ny. it was my plan to stay here, at least for awhile, but that picture is becoming more and more out of focus the more i look into this. i’m still holding out hope.
as i’m kind of just starting out with this whole process, i’m going to keep looking around for now, and later on i’ll post some resources that might help out others in the same situation.
catch ya
PS. obviously i’m back in the states, have been since right after thanksgiving. have been adjusting in the sense that i am pretty much completely back to my old life. haven’t been able to post because, as i said, site was broken.
australia is my fave!
September 1st, 2009seriously, it is. i have been having pretty much nothing but fun since last post. plus a little dramadrama, but this is college, after all.
running out of money, which is to be expected. going to look for a job soon, wish me luck.
spring break plans are in the works, really can’t wait for that. i’m also joining footy, i don’t know if it’s really a season or what the deal is, but we will see. i’ve been doing alot of schoolwork this week and it’s so saddening since i wasn’t really worrying about it for awhile there. ooooh well.
i have this monster cough right now, which is the only bad thing happening right now besides the fact that it’s not the weekend. hopefully it goes away soon, before break preferably?
anyway, thought i would update for…no one probably, haha. i pretty much never want to leave this place.
oh, who knows.
July 22nd, 2009Here I am sitting in my room in international house, wondering what I’d be doing if I lived at RMIT. So many more people live there, like a lot of the friends I’ve made. Living here, I’m the farthest away as possible from RMIT. I have this sinking feeling that there’s an out-of-sight-out-of-mind thing going on, too. Like who thinks about corey when she’s so far away? And then I’m lonely and don’t want to be the person who’s constantly calling people asking if they’re doing anything…and I can’t really have people here because it’s just…my room. Whatever. I guess it’s really too early to tell, I just don’t want that to happen.
I gotta meet some people on my floor. I hear them out there sometimes, and they seem fun, but every time I’m around I’m too tired to socialize. Like right now. Another 4am night last night doesn’t really do much for me at this point. But I wouldn’t have it any other way, cuz last night’s pub night was the best party night so far, I think. Aw, it was great.
Just waiting to see what happens. Maybe I’ll go to the game room.
UPDATE: going to the game room was a good idea!
moved in!
July 18th, 2009g’day! yes, that’s right, i’m at last all moved in to my permanent australia university of melbourne home. it’s pretty cozy, just a little room of my own with all my shit in it. went shopping yesterday, and had an awesome apartment party with the arcadia gang! hahaha love those bitches.
i just need to figure a whole bunch of stuff out now about registering and all that good stuff. i’m a little overwhelmed right now with all the paperwork i have to look over, and what’s important and what’s not. and this internet cap thing is very sad to my heart.
well peace out for now.
