amanda123's Journal, 08 June 2010

Yesterday morning 254.2, this morning 253.4! :) I just love watching that scale go down! I even had 2 low carb tortilla shells last night for my tacos. Tonight we are going to grill something. Well I did my first few exams for my online classes. In Biology I made a 92 on my Chapter 1 exam and in Macroeconomics I got a 100 on the intro exam and a 94 on my chapter 1 exam. :D I spent about 3 hours on school work yesterday afternoon.

My stomach is so much smaller. I can really tell and it is so nice. I am so excited about getting under 250 and it looks like it won't be long now!!!

Yeah, that 249 is just around the corner, CONGRAD's!!! k.. biology and macroeconomics, really good grades btw. I can't help but be curious, what will you be going into when you graduate??

Well... I'm not sure LOL! I want to get my associates degree first. I will have my Associates in Business finished up by next spring. It will also be a general Associates degree so that if I want to go into something other than Business I can. I am considering Accounting or Human Resources but I haven't decided. The basics are the same for either one so I have a little time to decide. Sometimes I wonder if I wouldn't really enjoy teaching history, science, or literature to say middle schoole kids. I really enjoy those subjects but I'm not sure I have the patience for the job. :)

That's good. At least you're flexible and have time to decide. I just think it's really great you're in college. My daughter got her B.A. through University of Phoenix. As far as patience goes, I think mine left me years ago lol!! Keep it up Amanda!! {{hugs}}

Thanks - I don't think I was ever given the gift of patience. I guess it is a good thing I am losing fast because I am miserable at waiting for things!

Wow...losing weight and taking Macroeconomics and Biology...are you sure you don't have a superwoman cape on under your clothes. Kudos!!!!!

Alright, Amanda, you are taking some names and kicking some hind end, GF. I told my brother, who is a minister, that I was praying for patience once, and he said "Oh no, don't do that!!!! Whe you pray for patience God will find a way to see if it is working!!" LOL And he was right. The more I pray for it, the more I have these challenges that test it! But I still say that little "God, give me patience" prayer at least 10 times a day! Keep up the great work, Amanda. You are doing great and I am proud of you, and you should be too!!

Oh my goodness. Now I understand. I need to start praying for something else.

That's what I said, Keli!!! But I keep doing it anyway. And I also pray the serenity prayer........alot!!!

I am really working on being more patient but it is hard. No, I'm not superwoman - let's hope I can pass these classes! I'm studying now during my lunch break. What is even scarier is that Summer II starts in July and I will be taking Biology II and Micro-Economics....aaahhh!! I will just have to be like the little engine that could.... I think I can, I think I can, I think I can.....

WOW Amanda. Those grades are so impressive. I know who I'll be coming to when I start college.. haha :) And you must feel FANTASTIC about losing so much weight! I can't wait until I notice my stomach getting smaller. You're so lucky you can already tell!! And I'm so excited to get under 250 also! (I'm 8 pounds away) Only because it's the weight that I always used to tell myself I would never go over.. (I guess that worked out well.. NOT!) Oh well, enough rambling, CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Thanks Alexandra - We'll see if you still think that after a couple of weeks! LOL! I'm scared - my next Biology chapter is on Chemistry.... CHEMISTRY! I failed that class in high school - I made A's & B's but when chemistry came along I couldnt understand it, gave up and dropped my GPA about.5 a point.... of course no one told me I could drop the class and save my gpa...thanks alot couselors & teacher..... anyways thanks and I hope I can keep these grades up.
