I got home pissed because that man bothering me. I went directly to my bedroom to change clothes, then Martu came with dirty chocolate face... I asked what she did that she had chocolate in her face and she replied I should go to the living room and look over the table. This is what I got:

The cup was empty, she said I needed to do the coffee which I did then I took the photo. The cupcake is from my niece's party. Martu melted chocolate and fill its center with it and almonds. it was delicious!

She's so sweet

This made my day :)

I woke up at 8.30 for work, someone was already calling me by phone. I didn't pick up the phone and I went to the kitchen to make coffee. When coffee was ready I sit at the computer and I spent all the morning doing quotes and answering the calls. I don't know why my coworkers love calling me, maybe they have no one at home who listeng to them.

At noon I got another coffee then I joined the Wind Power training. To be honest I didn't pay so much attention to it, I was still working in other tasks in wich I'm delayed. They guy who lead the training explained us how to apply torc to windmills and what tools we should use for this. He also explained how hydraulic tensioners work.

The training ended at 3 pm and I logged off from work. I was about to go to pick the tickets for Dragonland but weather channel showed storm. I decided to stay at home and to go next Saturday. I ate a sandwich then I lay in bed and I watched the last episode of season 1 of Mindhunter. Not bad a all, I'm looking forward to see the next season.

My legs still hurt because the Leg Burner workout. I want to repeat it tomorrow, let's see if I survive.

I'm afraid that I'm back in caffeine

No Bueno!!!

This week I'm drinking 3 cups of coffee every day because I feel so sleepy and tired all day long. This piss me off, I don't want to become addicted again. I'll try to replace coffee for green tea

Current Mood: embarrassed

I had caffeine overdose... and I write it while drinking coffee

Crossposts: https://nattalie-m.livejournal.com/181442.html

1 cup of decaffeinated coffee has up to 1 from 7 mg caffeine, less than 97% of a normal coffee which can have up to 70 from 140 mg, up to the type of coffee. The tea leaf has more caffeine than the same amount of coffee, but to make tea we need less amount of tea than the coffee we need to use to make a cup of it. This is why 1 cup of tea has less caffeine than a cup of coffee. Green tea is the tea that has less caffeine, 10 to 15 mg.
The body absorbs the caffeine and it goes directly to the brain, but it is a short effect. It's better for physical activities. The tea has less powerful but lasting effect, better for mental activities.

After 5 weeks without coffee I just had a cup of decaffeinated coffee. I just added to it stevia, not sugar nor creamer. I was kinda afraid to become addicted again but I think this time I will be able to control it. I enjoyed the coffee but now I am not so excited about it as I thought I was going to be.

Interesting...

I am not hungry but for some reason I want to eat nonstop today, I wonder if it can be hormonal, I do not feel anxious.

Current Mood: blah

It was so hard today to wake up and going to work, I hate working on Saturday

After work I went to the beauty store and I got some stuff for my hair then I came back home. I had lunch and tried to do something of all the things I want to do this weekend but I was struggling to stay awake. I had tea hoping that a little of caffeine give some energy but it doesn't work. I lied in bed, heart was working with just 50 bpm so I decided to take a nap despite the feeling of guilt.
Someone messaged me at the precise moment that I was falling asleep whaking me up again. I didn't check the phone and tried to sleep again.
I can't say it was a nap but I had some light sleep for 45 minutes then I decided to get up.

I think I'll have a cup of decaffeinated coffee. I deserve it after 5 weeks without coffee at all and I need to work in some websites and designs so let's give energy to this mind

Current Mood: lethargic

I'm trying this diet to fix my eating and to burn some fat. I don't think I have to lose weight, maybe 2 or 3kg max but I don't worry about it, I wanna change my metabolism. I'm not good to follow diets and I don't like doing them but just tracking my eating 2 days was enought see how bad my balance is.
The good about this diet: it makes me eat more times at day that I usually eat so I am not starving all day long
The bad about this diet..... I can't drink coffee!!!

it say not coffee at all because caffeine fuck everything up, same artifical sugar and also milk products.

It was my food today:
Breakfast: smoothie with water, blueberries, strawberries, kiwi and oatmel, and puffed rice cake
Morning snack: mango and green tea
Lunch: a salad with rice, spinach and tomatoes, grilled chicken. Strawberries
Afternnon snack: an apple
Dinner: beef steak with egg and zucchini
Evening snack: 4 strawberries and green tea

it was 1230 calories... I think I made my portions of food very small, I need to fix it

This is how my eating balance changed today

Yesterday the balance was satured fat high and all the rest were low. Today with the diet it seems better

I drank 8 glass of water and did 1 hour stationary bike.

But not everything was nice today.. lack of caffeine is killing me. I felt sleepy all day long, something that does not happen to me for a long time!! It made my day at work very hard and long, plus I got headache and feel anxious... ya you can see how addicted I am.

Sadly I will feel like this for some days and maybe I chose the worse week to quit coffee... I'll be busy with meetings and training the whole week

Current Mood: anxious

The Hotel: Vacation Village at Parkway. I love this hotel really. This is the room we booked this time, very comfortable and nice.

This time I didn't let Mike buy so much junkfood but anyway he got some. I got more flavored coffee.... I'm in love with them

I had to buy cookies OFC!!!

I asked to Mike to try that kind of butter they always use for sandwichs on the movies... here it is

Mike got the only beer that so far I like, and some beer for him. I really love American drinks and food

I got the airport 1 hour ago and did the check-in. There are a lot of people today but anyway the line was fast. My flight will leave from gate 4.
I'm drinking a latte in Mc Donalds and reading Sherlock Holmes while I wait to 3.30 am to go to the gate.
First flight is from Buenos Aires to Lima (Perú), then I have to wait 1 hour to take the next flight from Lima to Orlando. I will arrive at 4pm. Michael will get Orlando in few hours and go to the hotel to do the check-in and sleep before go for me.
I want take a pill for the bloody headache but since it is because muscles I don't have any kind of pills for this. So when I get the flight to Orlando I will take alprazolam, maybe this will make my muscles relax.

Current Mood: sore

I slept 7 hours and still feel sleepy

This is very annoying because I have too much to do and I just can think about sleep, coffee, sleep, coffee.... argggggg
Coffee and vitamins aren't working, Michael is quiet latelly, if I listen to the music can't think in all that I need to do... how can I get energy to do the things???
Mike often says "I don't know how you do all that you do!!!!" I don't know too, because I'm always doing 736475 things but fighting with my tiredness. And it's dark and raining today, that doesn't help I WANT SLEEP.... well, time to get another coffee

Current Mood: sleepy

The plan about quit coffee will not be possible after i got this cup...

I already drank 2 cup of coffee in this cup today

I'm failing bad trying to quit coffee. I just can't stop drinking it. There is always any reason for I make coffee. And I'm always sleepy so this doesn't help at all.

So far I'm allone in the office, reading random shits on internet and chatiing with Mike. And ofc right now I'm drinking coffee because even when last night I slept 6 hours, pill makes me feel sleepy. That is why I stopped taking this shit pills. I have 2 different pills, and both make me very sleepy and it also make my heart beast more slow that it already beats. I'm usually at 55-60 BPM and when I take pills it beats at 52-54, then I feel I will pass out.
The cardiologist says that my heart works fine just slow. They did a test and when I do workout my heart works perfect. Still need run a test to see if when I sleep it become more slow than usual. Many times when I'm falling asleep I felt I pass out, not like the typical feeling that I fall into the void. Nope.. it is a reall sensation that I'm passing out.

Current Mood: sleepy

Somethinng I like about American ppl is they have a National Day for everything. Each day of each month has a "National day of..." This is very funny to have an excuse to celebrate always something different if you want. In my country we just have national holidays (18 at year) and many "name-day" that I think nobody celebrate at all.
So today in U.S. they celebrate the National Coffee Day and even when I'm not from U.S. I will celebrate it! This is a perfect excuse to a coffee addict to drink more coffee

There some coffee I bought in Orlando with Mike
