i know i know, technically staying up for two-three days straight is terribly unhealthy, etc. and bad. but its finals, so whatcha gonna do...

i am trying conciously to do this as heathily as possble, without the use of extraneous drugs (besides my prescribed meds for add, the guidelines for which are being strictly  followed under dr's orders, and rockstar sugar free energy drinks, which employ the least amount of harmful caffeine and sugar agents to the body that i could find available and used in minimal amounts, i.e. one every four or five hours at night)

so,  in eating within my 1200-1400 cal limit for what would have been my normal day, i am on day 2, no sleep (awoke at 9n on thurs, did not intend to stay up until 6:30 this morning when my day started at nine, but oh well). have not slept since. have a strange amount of energy. I am keeping within my caloric restrictions while eating healthily. I am focusing on protein to keep me going, and have had a sufficient intake of carbs, bagel for breakfast after not eating all night ( which was a bad idea, i was awake and burning calories, trying to do things differently tonight!).

so breakfast today: everything bagel, lowfat veggie cream cheese,

lunch: kidney beans (protein)  and rice (carbs) lots of water throughout the day

dinner: fish sautee  (recipe i added here on CC), flounder sauteed with tomato, green pepper, onion, leek, etc in ck broth, lots of protein and vegiies and a potato for carbs.

then I might have relaxed a bit and had a weak margartia and watched a movie briefly with friends while we expounded on the confusing logic of professors, who, after lulling us into a false sense of security all semester with minimal classwork, slam us into a wall upon the arrival of finals (a necessary venting, i feel)

now, back to the grinding thingy  (the analogy escapes me) and I have some chicken fingers (from the pizzeria) and am unsure of how much more to eat, last night rather sucked, and led to a calorie binge in my morning bagel that robbed me of the ability  to eat small meals throughout the day because of my unwise morning intake. how best to proceed?

I'm thinking of spacing out my ck fingers ( i've had two, saving two for later). maybe have a pb &j at four? or is that maybe overgoing my intake 1200-1400?

any advice would be wonderful. thank you!
