alllicat's Journal, 29 January 2010

Ugh! Last night was a full moon, I think. I've been the living embodiment of Murphy's Law, anything that can go wrong, will go wrong.

Last night, while out food shopping, either a rogue cart decided that it was gunning for me, or someone was just being careless, but I left my car in tact when I went in, and when I came out I had a busted tail light. I called my friend who's father owned a body shop and he told me $100 to fix it. That's a lot of money and I'm not happy about having to spend it. So, to try to save myself a little bit of money, I'm going to go to the junk yard and see if they have the part.

I can't believe that all this stress is affecting me! I'm trying to stay positive, but I had some cheese fries last night. Not a lot. I just tried one or two. Okay, more than that, and I felt totally guilty. I'm not the girl who eats her feelings anymore, but I was so stressed out, and I just didn't know what to do. I'm happy to say that probably didn't put me over my points, I am usually very frugal with them to begin with, so in case I want to splurge, it's kind of built into my every day rather than having to indulge in those pesky "flex points."

I usually weigh myself in the morning and at night just to see how the food has affected me, I didn't dare weigh myself after that, but this morning, I was only up .4lbs, which isn't that bad, and I'm happy that it didn't affect me too terribly.

I'm going to start looking into gym memberships, I think. I'm not happy about it, because I really hate gyms, especially living in New Jersey. I feel like everyone is a "Jersey Shore" reject who's only there to be seen and be on the skeevy side. Too many juice heads for my liking, I just want to go and work out so I can start getting toned, not be ogled or have people sneer at me, because I'm not in perfect shape.

Alright, well I think that my foul mood brings me to my next topic, I believe that 24 hours before my doctor's appointment for the problem I discussed a week ago or so, I think my body is self correcting it. Hence, my wonderful mood. So on that note I've gotta get my 5.

5. Having "me" time to get my nails done
4. Knowing that if something unexpected happens, I have the resources to take care of it.
3. Friends who will stick their necks out for me.
2. Having friends I can look back with and laugh about how ridiculous we were.
1. Knowing that I am loved and supported by so many people.

Have a great weekend everyone!!

That sucks about your gyms in Jersey. I hate that. It really does make someone just starting out really wanna work out at home if that's the case. My gym isn't really like that, thankfully, but then again, I don't really care. I wear (and wash) the same gym clothes every time I go, and I sweat like crazy. I don't care who stares at me. I'm there to get my workout. Hopefully you can find one that isn't so superficial. That sucks about your tail light. That's so rude of someone to do that and then not leave you a note. Hope you find the part!!! (P.S. I wrote a little about Lucy today!)

You should checkout Wii Fit plus it gives you a good workout it's much cheaper and no membership fees! You don't have to wait for equipment time nobody around to watch you and NEVER have to leave home. Good luck to you

I like the gym and I was dragging my feet like it was my job when I first joined. There were a lot of meatheads and super skinny girls and I dreaded going. But I found a gym that had a little less of those things and I asked when the least busy time was. I make sure I go during those times so I don't have to be on the machine next to Miss America. I stay out of the "big boy section," as I like to call it, I keep my head down and get in and out. Now, I'm actually starting to like it. I feel good there now! There are a lot of places that will allow you to have a week or two free trial, so maybe you should try that instead of committing right away? Just a few suggestions. :) Also, cheese fries are my weakness! Don't be ashamed, it happens to the best of us.
