Before After

My friends list

UGH!

I have to vent:

I come home tonight to findout that my little brother and his friends were using fireworks earlier today.  No big deal.  However, they were looking for something to "blow up" with them and went through the attic in search of something, anything to use.  His friends ended up going through my school stuff, the living room box I have ready for school when I leave in 2 weeks, and selecting my one of two souvenires I bought in Spain during my vacation.  It was a black bull with horns and I have had it in my room for the last two years at school to remind me of my time in Spain.  And now it's soaking wet from them dousing it with water, burned up and down the side, and its legs are falling off from all the shock / being thrown around.  He had asked my mom 3 times whether he could have it and she said yes... because she didn't know who's it was.

I am annoyed.  Really annoyed.  He didn't blow up anything of his own.  His friends went through my stuff and destroyed a momento of mine, and she gave them permission to do so.

The souvenire was nice, wasn't my favorite, but I'm still irritated by the whole situation.

F that.

Goals

In light of seeing other peoples' goals... I have decided to make some of my own:

100 Crunches / day - that's doable

3 L water / day - easy!

30 pushups / day

Small changes... big results.  So we hop.e

My Weakness

My true weakness--that which has been destroying my diet success this last week or more... is Nestle Tollhouse cookie dough in my fridge!  It's delicious but I know it's terrible for me.  As of now, I'm cutting myself off.  I can have a yogurt with some fruit and a granola bar for the same amount of calories / fat, it will be far more rewarding, and I will feel better about myself.

Ugh, I know weigh-in tomorrow morning is gunna be ugly.

Post-Dave

Got back from a GREAT dave concert at Fenway Park.  I finally heard Two Step... a great night. 

I was healthy yesterday up until dinner...

Healthy cereal and fruit, carrot snack, missed lunch, and then tapas for dinner.  Chorizo and patatas bravas are not exactly weight-losing foods.  However, I will be picking up some exercise equiptment later on today hopefully so it should all even out... I hope.

Okay, it's time to earn some points mowing the lawns.  Seacrest, out.

First Time

So I've just opened this blog account for myself.  Go me.  I started WW about 6 weeks ago and have lost almost 10 lbs.  My whole purpose of doing this is because I look at myself and am not happy.  The new clothes I bought not too long ago are tight and unsightly.  That's a whole lot of money.

Beyond that, I can just see myself slowly expanding and with school and work, sedentary is obviously how all of this occurs.  Thus, I am committing to a life change.  I am cutting down on the junk, cooking and trying new, exciting, and HEALTHY foods and LOVING IT!  I am now catching myself walking down the street looking at other people and it just reassures my decision to make a positive, permanent life change.

Go everyone.  Healthy / Fit / Muscular is the longterm goal.  I've just taken the first step and every day is another opportunity to go forward or backwards.  As long as there are more forward than backward, it's success.
