Calories

Wow, I am so sorry I haven't blogged in SUCH a long time. Junior high is hard, and we have a lot of projects. Anyway, today's blog is about how many calories I ate in one day. This is about the size of food I eat in a day, so it's not like I just pigged out to make it look like I eat a lot. I wrote down everything I ate on a Saturday, and I got a lot of calories, which is good, because I need a lot to build muscle, since I burn at least 2400 every day. Here is what I had:
BREAKFAST: 2 Poptarts, 1 pkg mini muffins, 2 hard boiled eggs.
LUNCH and DINNER: 1 hotdog, 1 brownie, bag of puppy chow, 2 suckers, 2 hersey mini, turkey sub, 8 hard boiled eggs, 2 cups butter popcorn.
DRINKS: Cup of OJ, Cup of Gatorade, 2 Cokes, 1 water, 1 vanilla milk, 1 hydrive.
All together that equals 3550 calories. Isn't that kinda cool? I mean, where do I fit all this? I never feel stuffed either. The first time I felt stuffed in a long time was yesterday! Ha. Anyway, I've gotta go. Gotta get ready for swim practice! Thanks for reading, hope you have a great Black Friday! =]

Swim meet! :D

Today I had a swim meet! I went to practice this morning, then at around 1:00 I left for the meet. It was just me and this boy named Alex from my team, but I dropped 10 seconds in my 1000. My cap started to creep off at about 750, and by 900, it was off! My goggles then started to fill up with water, but I all out sprinted so I could finish. I had a killer cramp, but I dropped time and got the zone. I was really close to the record for my team, so I'm hoping to get that next time. I had a really fun time though. I got to see all my friends from the other teams, and hang out with them like I was part of their team. Lemme tell you, those girls and boys are pretty wild... you know exactly who you are :)
Anyway, I was glad I went. My friend, Jake, counted for me for most of it, and then Alex's mom took over because he was in the next heat with Alex. Yeah, for the long distance the heats went girls, boys, girls, boys. Fastest to slowest. I was in the first heat, which meant I was the fastest of the girls. Well, I am pretty exhausted, so I better get some sleep. I have Church tomorrow, then chilling out, then off to swim practice!
