I spent the day with the family. I really wanted to see my nephew but my sister took him to see his dad (loser). I went to breakfast with my mommy and sister. Then we went to the mall. I hate shopping during this time of year. There are too many people out and it gets really annoying. People are so rude and don't say excuse me or please, or anything.
I was planning to go to the gym today, but I spent most of the day with my family. I came home and almost went to the gym but my roommate wanted to hang out for a little bit since she leaves tomorrow to spend Christmas with her mom in Seattle. When she left it was already too late to go to the gym since it closes at 6pm during the weekend.
No worries... I will be taking my roommate to the airport in the morning, so I am planning to go workout in the morning for a couple of hours. Hopefully, I will start weight lifting. I haven't done that in awhile, so I will start my upper muscles one day and lower muscles the next, so I can give my muscles some time to deal with the pain.
After working out, I plan to get some quarters and do some laundry. I also need to clean the house. That's the only thing I hate about living with Chelsea... she never cleans and leaves everything for me to do. I'm seriously thinking about moving into my own place, but I don't know. I guess we'll see.
Wish me luck. Tomorrow is WI and I'm hoping I maintained!!!
It's set. I am done forever!!! Well not forever, but for a little while. I actually have nothing to do anymore. I went to work today and realized that I don't have anymore excuses to not lose the weight I have gained over the past 5 years. I always said I was too busy with going to school, studying, sorority events, etc. But now, all I have is work and I will be working full-time but I will have everyday available to workout.
I was really tired last night. When I finished work I went straight home and fell asleep. I didn't wake up until this morning before work. I worked hard for my boss today that's for sure. I love my job. I am so spoiled where I work, my boss loves me. We were talking today and we want to do a challenge together. We really want to lose weight and we pledge that we will do it together.
I did work out today. I did 50 minutes on the Elliptical and some ab work. I will be going to the gym tomorrow and I think twice. I'm going to try to go to the gym twice for as long as I can. I think that would be beneficial right now. I wanna lose weight like the people do on the biggest loser you know? Like that first week they are on the ranch, they lose more than 10 pounds. How do they do that? I'm going to do it! Maybe not 10 pounds but maybe 2-3.. I think that's doable!
It's like almost 10pm and I am so not ready for my last shift. I am so tired because I couldn't fall back to sleep when I woke up out of nowhere at 8pm. BUT it is my last shift so I need to buckle up and get it done! I'm excited to show my preceptor my project. I showed Amber today and she said it turned out great.
I need to pack my lunch... er... dinner? for work before I go. I just wanted to write something in before I leave. I want to take in 2 more water bottles tonight since I did really well during the day. And I get to go workout tomorrow after work which I'm really excited about! I like to workout because I catch up on all my favorite shows and watch music videos!
I think I'm spoiled. Seriously, I don't think I will be able to work 40 hours a week. I worked all day today and I was so bored! I got my work done, but I wasn't motivated at all. Maybe it's that I haven't finished my hours yet, but it's something. I was so tired and I woke up late. I don't feel the need to wake up on time for work. Thats so bad. Hopefully, after tomorrow I will feel different.
So I didn't get to go to the gym today, but I will be on Thursday and Friday. Since I work a double shift tomorrow, I really woke have time to go to the gym. I finished my scholarship project and will be giving it to my preceptors tomorrow. I still have to do two more journals for my professor which I will do one tomorrow and another one on Thursday.
So... I have to lose more weight. I have to remember to bring my water bottle to the hospital with me tomorrow. That keeps me drinking water all day. I really can't wait to finish my hours because maybe by then, I will feel more motivated to workout. I'm just so tired all the time. Okay I have to go because I am repeating myself. See you guys later!
So… it’s been a busy
weekend. I had my graduation on Friday. It was awesome! I looked really cute in
my new outfit I bought that day. My mom and sisters and brother went as well as
my boss and my sorority sisters. We went out to eat afterwards and then we went
out to the bars. It was a great night and I had a blast with all my favorite
people. On Saturday, I was involved in a ceremony for this program I’m in and
my dad was able to go to that one. My boss and my big big boss were there and
said nothing but great things about me.
I had weigh in on Sunday
and was pleasantly surprised that I managed a loss with all the eating out
(free food!), and continuous celebrating. I lost 1.2lbs. Thank goodness! I went
to the hospital yesterday and worked a double and went to the hospital today
for 8 hours. OMG! One of the patients we discharged yesterday ended up in jail early
this morning for sexual assault. It’s so sad seeing these kids not going where
we recommend them to go (his mom refused to send him to RTC and wanted to take
him home). Look what happened? My nurse and I spent a good three hours working
on that situation.
Anyway, I just came back
from working out and am beat. I am ready for bed. I just wanted to come by and
let you know the deal. I will be here more now that all that jazz is done! I
finish the hospital on Wednesday night!!! SO EXCITED!
I was able to get off early so I could get
some sleep for today. I am so close to finishing my hours. I will have 32 hours
left, which means four more days. I get today and Saturday off and I will work
Sunday, Monday, and 16 hours on Wednesday. I didn’t at all I was at work since
I went to this dinner party yesterday with my girls. It was an Ugly Christmas
Sweater Party, very cute.
I drank lots of water and I feel like I have a water baby in
my tummy. I need to use the bathroom bad! Today is the day you guys! Seriously,
I didn’t think this day would come. It took me forever (had to wait a year and
a half for the nursing program), but now I will be a college graduate! The
first in my family; my mom called me last night and she was really excited. We
made plans to have dinner with the family and my sorority sisters and the SAE
boys. Then tonight I will be going out with my girls! So excited!
So I will be going to the gym today since I haven’t gone
since Tuesday. It’s been a hard couple of days with working night shift. I
really hope that I don’t get a night shift position in the future because my
life would be so upside down.
I weigh in on Sunday so I hope that I have a good loss. I’ve
tired my hardest to stay within my limits but you know, my schedule is all out
of whack!
I can't blog that much right now, but I just wanted to give a little update. I worked a night shift and I worked in the morning so I am tired. I did however have lots of snacks and a salad. I also drank two 30oz. water bottles throughou the night.
I really want this to happen and I will make it happen. I'll post later I just wanted to say I am doing well.
I am beat! I worked all day. I went to the hospital from 7-4 and then work from 4-7. I was so tired, but I did not go home. I went straight to the gym. I worked out for an hour which is awesome. I was watching the Biggest Loser. I didn't finish it all but I did see all the way up to when they said americans get to vote the last person off the final 3.
I woke up late so I wasn't able to pack my lunch. So, I got my lunch ready for tomorrow tonight so that I don't have to rush. I will be working from 7-4 tomorrow and then again from 11p-7a, then I have to work at my real job from 8-5. I will be going really crazy. I won't be able to go to the gym tomorrow, but hopefully I will not be too tired to workout on Thursday. I'm drinking my water and get in my points. I weighed myself tomorrow and the number looks great!
I am absolutely tired today. I woke up in time to get to the hospital on time. I only worked half the day (Thank goodness!). I can't work that long at all. Let me tell you guys something. There's this guy who works on the unit, he's a Discharge Planner for the adolescent. He's like in his late 20's/ early 30's. He's white and ok looking, not really my type, but I think he likes me or something. I don't know for sure, but he gives me these looks when we're in treatment team. It's interesting. Like today he said that blah blah blah and everyone was invited and he turned to me and said, "You know, you're invited too and it would cool if you went." What do you think? Maybe he's being nice.
I did go to the gym today. I worked out for only 45 minutes on the elliptial. I came home and ate my left overs from yesterday's dinner. But I'm drinking a lot of water which is awesome because I don't drink that much water at all, but I already drank two water bottle full of water and on my third one.
I need to wake up just like 40 minutes earlier than I have so I can make breakfast and make my lunch. That's the hardest thing for me right now. I just want to sleep instead. I need to plan better in the morning. I also would like to be like 20 mintues early to work. That would make my preceptor happier too.
I only have 4 more days until my graduation. I need to call my mom and make sure I know what her plans are for me and the family. I also need to find out what my plans are for the sorority sisters.
I have to go, but I will go to the gym tomorrow, wake up early to make breakfast and lunch, and be OP!
Man, it's been quite a few months since I've been on here. I was doing really good at the beginning of the summer. I was on a losing strike. I was enjoying my classes, working out all the time, and eating right; however, it was so hard to stay focus after I started the second half of the semester. I was so busy trying to pass the tests. I did end up with a B in the class that I was struggling in, but I started off with an F (literally!).
I am so poor right now as well. This is my last week of school. I graduate on the 12th of December. I am so excited! I am so ready to be done with school and I think it's about time! After failing that one semester I thought I was going to quit and stop going to school, but I stuck it through. I went on and ended up getting all A's and B's the last three semesters. I am very surprised how much I have grown academically.
What am I going to do with my time now? After I graduate I have a full time job waiting for me. It's not within the medical field, but it's a full time job. I will be visiting my bestie in New York for New Year's Eve and going to Baton Rouge, LA for a wedding I will be in from the 1st to the 6th of January. After my great vacation, I will be working my butt off! I might even get a second job.
As the weight goes, I plan to start this whole life style change tomorrow. I am so sick and tired of losing weight and gaining it back. I think it's about time for me to get it together. I will be done with school and I think I will have the time and patience. I have made a meal plan for this week and plan on sticking with it. I went to the gym last week 3 times, so that's a good sign.
I packed my workout bag, and have my food ready for tomorrow. So here we go! I will make this change happen! I have the power to stay with it!
