asiago cheese bagel... with cream cheese by eclecticlibrarian.

Above: The 330-calorie morsel that tortured my willpower before wrecking my carb fast.

8 a.m. I am a bad, bad person. I break down and eat an asiago cheese bagel with sun dried tomato cream cheese this morning. It tastes scrumptious, but my carb elation is quickly replaced with sharp pangs of guilt.

11 a.m. I’m exhausted already so I cheat again and drink a Red Bull. I finally come to grips that the rumor about carbs is true – they completely zap your energy, which in turn forces you to increase your caffeine intake just to stay awake.

2:00 p.m. I venture downstairs during break to microwave my leftovers from last night and notice some envious glances from my sandwich eating sorority sisters.

7:30 p.m. Hooray! The first weekend of recruitment is finally complete. Never again must I wear a hideously ill-fitting red t-shirt tucked into my jeans like a soccer mom from the nineties, and for that I am eternally grateful.

8:00 p.m. I go to the gym despite my recruitment-induced fatigue and use the elliptical for 30 minutes and do a few crunches. I’m pretty sure my roommate thinks I’m crazy, but I can’t say I blame her – who wants to work out after two straight days of belligerent sorority bedlam?

9:00 p.m. I get another Pita Pit salad delivered – this time a side of Dijon mustard for dipping makes it much more flavorful.
