I had a minor drop over the weekend, but I'm not gonna complain because I had a lot of captain and coke zero's over the weekend... whoops! I know that my social life has been way more important to me than losing weight. I thought about it and I gained I think 12lbs since I started dating Mike... so 4 months... wtf have I been doing??? I know after I quit the hCG I gained 12lbs so basically I've gained 24lbs since May... WTF!!!

It's definitely time to do something about this, I mean severely. It's been to the point that most of my pants don't fit which is SUPER depressing =( I've been trying WW and I think I'm on week 3 and I think I've lost maybe 4lbs... I can't see my chart so I don't remember. I've been half-ass doing it though cuz Mike will come over and we end up eating like crap when we're together. I keep telling him we've got to stop doing that and he agrees, but we don't do it.

He actually lost over 20lbs since February I think... maybe more at this point and I need to get back to where I was! I mean he's 6'1" and 165lbs I think... I'm 5'9" and 143... that's just not acceptable... especially since I was 126lbs... so close to my goal =( He keeps recommending that I try the LoseIt app on my phone because that's how he did it... I decided to listen to him and give it a shot. I get 1,100 calories a day if I wanna lose 2lbs a week (which is the most it would give me to lose) so I'm trying it. I started that yesterday and stayed under the calorie intake, so I'm actually going to try and focus on it now. I really hope this works cuz I need to get back to where I was... it's so depressing =(

Well, looks like I'm doing ok so far on WW. I ate horrible Friday and Saturday though. Actually I did good Friday during the day, but that night I went out with Mike and a few friends to play pool and ended up having 4 beers and a shot... fail on me! Weird thing is my bf and I can drink a lot and after we got to my apartment, maybe an hour or two after we got there, we both ended up blacking out at the same time and don't remember how we got to bed! To be honest, I almost feel like someone gave us a "floory" lol (Hangover reference if you didn't catch it). We can both drink a lot, I mean that was nothing for me and he had I think 3 beers, the shot and two gin and tonics and we were done... something doesn't seem right about that. My friend that took the shot with us got super buzzed too after one shot... que weird!

We went to Six Flags yesterday and had such horrible hangovers that we tried to eat Jack in the Crack to soak up some of the alcohol... thankfully it helped my hangover, but not so much my diet! Only had a pretzel at the park, but came home and made alfredo for us... also not helpful!

Back on track today though and started taking a multi-vitamin to see if that would help anything. Does anyone know much about One a Day? I keep hearing I should take something so I bought that and wondered if any of you had thoughts on it. Thanks guys!

So I went MIA again and I know exactly why... I can't keep this damn weight off! I've fluctuated so much in the past few months, I dunno what my problem is! I diet, break it hardcore, then go on a different diet, lose weight and break it again... I need to stop this cycle! I decided to try Weight Watchers (even though I like South Beach better) because I couldn't afford the food for South Beach, lol. There's just so much meat and produce involved in the SBD that I couldn't do it! I went ahead with WW because I know it's healthy and much more affordable... plus I figure I can still eat what I want, just in moderation (and I need to learn portion control as is).

I've had so much going on in the past month or so... I'm pretty sure the stress isn't helping with the weight loss. Ya know when you get to the point where everything seems to be piling on top of each other that the thought of one more thing is just too much? I think that's part of the reason I am where I am.

I know a huge factor has been my move... I moved into my own apartment over the weekend... and I love it, but gosh, I'm nervous about it! I've lived on my own (well, with my significant others) since I was 18 and this is the first time that I'm going it on my own... what an amazingly fulfilling thing, but scary at the same time! I mean I'm not concerned about living alone (I rather like that part) but it's more can I afford it? I have a good job and get paid fairly well, but the fact that it's so freakin expensive to live in the Bay Area and doing it on my own with no one else to rely on but myself... whoa! I had so many unexpected bills pop up in the last month (over $3500!) that it caused me to go into super stress mode since it depleted a ton of my savings... I'll be ok though.

I decided to finally go back to school too! I'm excited about this actually because I'm one step closer to becoming a therapist and I'm doing something for myself! I'm on the accelerated program to get my Masters and I should be done in 2 1/2 - 3 years. The positive point about this is I'll finally get my next degree and I can defer my student loans (giving me some extra cash for now, lol) so that relieves a lot of stress.

I'm definitely staying busy... doing well at work (besides the occasional annoyance of my co-workers, but that happens to all of us from time to time), things are going well with Mike and me... although the constant charter trips are a little daunting, but the time we do spend together is nice... and I seem to see him more now that I have my own place... and being busy will help me focus more on me and keeping my priorities straight... all good things =)

Sorry for the long post... just giving an update =) I'll try to keep up better and comment a little more! Love love buddies!
