Just a few things

I haven't measured yet because the only time I can think about it is right after I've worked out. I thought I'd post a few things here though because better out than in, as Shrek says.

I have been participating in the National Fitness Challenge through the Discovery Channel. Since I started it I have lost 10 pounds. My total goal for my 8 week challenge is 16 pounds so I'm on my way. I think I'm at 3 weeks. I can't really remember. I should probably look at that. In this time I've also started a weight loss support group on Facebook. It's 7 of us right now. If nothing else it helps me be accountable because I have taken on a leadership roll with everything.

I have a headache today. I've actually had a headache about 3 days. It makes me want to just go back to bed. I am at work, though, and staying busy. Hopefully it'll pass.

How's everyone doing?

Also, I went back and read a bunch of my old blogs before deleting them. I'd just like to take a moment to say...thank god that phase of my life is over.

I've been thinking...

...and reading back through some of my older blogs. I'm going to ditch a lot of them. They are a very strange part of my past that I just don't feel like holding on to anymore. I have learned my lessons from them and, finally, firmly want to leave them where they belong - the past.

As a p.s...any of my random fiction I'm keeping up 'cause maybe I'll write a book someday.

As a p.s.s....I know I need to update on the fatness of my buttness but I haven't had time to take measurements lately (how much of an excuse or way of saying "I don't want to take measurements" is that?). I will try to take them tomorrow after work and get them up.

Another weekend passes

Well, I made it through the holidays without gaining any weight which was a pretty impressive feat. It could be because I technically have gained weight but I just fight it off all week long to stay at an even place. Hopefully since I've got passed it all I can focus in. I have a doctor's appointment in March so I'm thinking it will help motivate me to be the best me I can be (though, honestly, it never has before).

My measurements haven't changed either. Again, I guess I'm just glad to make it out alive.

Workout has remained about the same except I'm going to start dragging my mom with me to the gym 3 days a week which means I'll have some extra workout time. Hopefully it'll make things changed too.

I hope everyone is diving into 2011 and feeling all happy.

I came, I saw, I ate

Sometimes I sit back and wonder why it is that I'm eating what I'm eating. I know what I should be eating. I know what I should not be eating. There are times, though, where I can justify eating my weight in cookies and candies. I can justify eating as much Mexican as possible before I cannot walk.

When I think about it, though, I realize there are reasons behind the eating. More than anything it's stress and boredom. I need to find a new way to destress - a new way to cure my boredom. I already workout every day. I just got a Kindle so I'm taking up reading all the Classic novels I've never read before...mainly because they're free.

Maybe I don't need a diet - maybe I need a therapist.

It's My Birthday

I'm 29 today. I know I haven't been updating like I said I would. Things have been so busy and complicated. Doctor visits, ER visits, holidays and so much more. I thought I would drop in, though, and show where I'm at now.
