Not to bad
Hello ladies. Hope you all are have a terrific Thursday, lol.
I am in the computer lab waiting on my next class to start. I just bought my books for this semester. OMG!!! It should be illegal for a professor to want 3 books for 1 class! I spent $275 already and I have 3 more books to get :( This is a major bummer! Only 1 more year and I'm outta here, thank you Jesus!
On the weightloss front:
Last night wasn't so bad. But I wish I hadn't had any because the party was kind of...how do I say this??? LAME! So I should have just not had any and would have been fine. Oh well, lesson learned. I only had 2 margaritas. One frozen and 1 regular. It was 10 points :( BUT I didn't eat anymore so I only use 9.5 of my extra 35 points this week.
I have been on plan today. I had a special K bar and a banana for breakfast (with water of course) and then I just had my Hostess 100 cal cakes(with water) for snack. After class I'm going home and having a salad, smart one and orage for lunch. Then I will be at the gym! So all is not lost. Tuesday is 5 days away so I can still see the lost I want if I get my butt in the gym everyday and stay on plan. I'm hopeful!
I was asked the other day about my weight loss. Someone said it looks like I've been losing weight. Which I'm proud to say I HAVE! Doesn't that feel good to say ladies? Well they said "is it hard, I just don't know how?" and I said "I didn't either, I just dug in! I read and read and read about eating right and exercising. Now I'm just putting it into action" And I just started thinking how much I've learned on this journey.
Sidenote: I hate sitting in computer labs where people can see your screen. I do NOT need you reading what I'm trying. It's none of your business. Then don't look above the screen to the wall when I see you looking. I ALREADY KNOW YOU WHERE. *sigh*
I've learned:
- Not to diet but make small lifestyle changes I can live with
- Water isn't so bad...neither is Crystal light
- A little cooking will get you a long way
- Exercise is a must...No denying it or getting around it. Just gotta do it!
- Your weightloss journey is personal and sensitive, don't tell those that will take it lightly and criticize you if you stumble.
- Except that sometimes you're going to mess up and not be on plan but pick it back up and move on.
- Food is not for comfort, prayer is
Those are just a few.
On a happier note... I FIT INTO MY SKINNY JEANS TODAY! When I bought them they were snug and every time I tried to wear them I got that God awful muffin top. Well today they got on (with a little wiggling) and it looks good. Yay. Small victories is what counts!
Another small victory: I haven't had ANY kind of soda, diet or regular in 2 weeks! I've been drinking only water and 1-2 crystal lights a day. Major improvement from my 2-3 a day. I've learned that water with a meal is not the end of the world. Now Precious follow suit and drop the Pepsi, LOL. J/K!
Ok, gotta log my points, search for some textbooks online and call mommy before I go to class. Ciao bellas!
