27 July 2010

Well I was certainly a good girl yesterday... Monday's usually are the best day for my diet... I went grocery shopping after work and bought a Medium tank top... it's kind of funny, but even after all this hard work, it's still difficult for me to remember not to grab an Extra Large when I'm checking out clothing... and even harder for me to even think about grabbing a Medium... I just can't imagine being any other size but Large or higher, ya know? It's so weird... so un-real... there have still been a few things that fit better on me as a Large... but the fact that I'm buying more then one Medium at all is just weird as Hell... but very exciting...

After I got home from grocery shopping I DID drag lazy butt to the gym and I did about a 75% work out... too much to be a half work out, not enough to be a full work out... I did 11 miles on the elliptical and did the most I've done yet on the stomach weight machine at my gym, I also did several squats upon returning home... and as of this morning I'm still currently holding strong at "156"... I also held a decently low calorie count yesterday, I got it under a 1,000... so I'd say that's not to bad.

Justin texted me to let me know he hung up the flyers last night... I'm pretty excited, the show isn't this weekend but the one after... and then they actually have another one at the end of the month... so that should be awesome!

Well not much more to tell... I hope everyone has a nice Tuesday! :)

26 July 2010

Well I certainly got the Friday I wanted... I really wanted to do three different things on Friday... I really wanted to drink, go dancing, and most important of all, I really wanted to spend time with Justin... I got all of that and a fancy dinner at some ridiculously expensive restaurant... We had a really great Friday night... it was of course a big group of us... I had my cute new jeans on and dancing was a total blast... I'm always so thrilled when Justin dances with me, we always have the best time dancing together... this dance club had this cool thing where in the middle of dancing it would spray out this super cold fog every where so you couldn't even see the person infront of you... it was way fun... and although I didn't stick to my diet very well, I'm sure I worked off at least a few calories while dancing. Then on the walk back to the car I ran into this girl from my work that I don't really get along with... but for some reason she wanted to say hi to me... and I'm not gonna lie I felt kind of pimp because I had Justin, Tom, and Mike with me at the time... I'm sure it surprised her, because I'm like nerdy un-cool girl unless I'm out with all the boys... and so I felt kind of special being seen with all of them... they are all very attractive boys. So special thanks to them for making me look like I matter, lol.

On Saturday we didn't do too much... the boys were auditioning for a new drummer because their drummer is leaving the band soon... him and his wife are having their first baby.... the new drummer they auditioned was very nice and pretty good. I worked on re-working a band flyer for the upcoming show, I think it turned out pretty good, I posted a picture on FatSecret if anyone cares to see it. A group of us went out for a very un-healthy dinner of burger fries which was incredibly delicious... and then we came back and played Guitar Hero while we drank until we went to bed, lol... it was a good time.

Parting with Justin on Sundays is always really hard on me... I hate to leave him but I just focus on all the good times we've had before I leave and that always makes me feel better... I went and saw Inception with my buddy Tim... it was a pretty good movie... not like soul changing amazing the way everyone's making it out to be... but still pretty good.

Today I'm feeling tired, fat, and in a pretty bad mood... but that's a Monday for you I guess... my intentions tonight are to hit the grocery store on the way home and then scoot my butt straight to the gym to get at least a half work out in... I'm really going to focus on my calorie count for the week as well... I need to make up some ground from my epic fail on Saturaday...

I have an interview for my job on Wednesday... it's for the job I'm already doing, only if they hire me then I won't be a temp agent anymore, I'll actually be employed through the city and I'll get better pay, benefits, and paid holidays... so keep your fingers crossed for me... I really need this...

I hope everyone had a great weekend! Don't work too hard today :)

"156" baby! Oh Yeah!

So, I'm not gonna lie, I was feeling like shit yesterday... I was irritated, I felt fat, I was just all around a dangerous person to be around yesterday... and so I was like "screw this, I don't need to feel this way." So after I got off work 20 minutes late >:( I was like I don't care how tired I am... I'm going to the freakin gym and I'm not coming home till I've done a full 15 mile work out... and let me tell you... you can't imagine how much I struggled through the last 4 miles... I could have stopped at 14 even 13 miles... but I went to the gym with a mission last night and like Hell I wasn't going to complete it.

So I'm proud to announce I did 15 miles on the elliptical last night, burned 1,725 calories, I even did my stomach weights and as if all of that wasn't enough, I kept my calorie count under 500 yesterday... not to starv myself or anything... I mean I really could have gone either way with Dinner, I could have eaten but I knew I'd feel ok if I just went straight to bed after the gym... so I did :)

And so... what do I get for all my efforts? Now I'm not going to record it on here yet but the scale this morning definitely said "155" on my HOME scale... yeah... you know the one... the one that always reads 2 pounds higher then the one at Justin's house... it actually read "155" on it... now, what I am recording on here is the loss of yet another pound because I went ahead and weighed myself on the gym scale before I left the gym last night because I hadn't weighed myself on a non-electronic scale in a long time... I wanted to see how accurate my home scale had been being... and the gym scale and my Home scale when I got home from the gym both read a solid "156" and so my fellow FatSecretians I am an official "156" right now and a very serious 11 pounds away from meeting my goal.

So as if all of that isn't enough great news... I bought these jeans about 2 weeks ago... that are a very very tight size US "13" like tighter then the other "13's" that I have been wearing for about a month now... and so when I bought them, they weren't quite wearable yet... but I had to have them because for one they were only $13 and for two they have my favorite kind of back pockets on them, the kind with a button on them... I think those kinds of back pockets make every ass look Great A! So today is my frist day wearing them since I bought them... I feel like I can sit down and my fat isn't noticably oozing over behind my shirt. I'm so excited about these jeans... I can't wait to show Justin... have I mentioned how amazing he is lately... he is such a great motivator... he's always cheering me on... he makes me feel like losing this weight is possible and gives me praise for all my hard work... he's totally my hero!

Ok ok... so... yes, there's more!!!! I had my third random person notice I've lost weight today... the girl at the coffee shop across the street from my work rings me up for my coffee every morning... so she sees me all the time but has had no idea I've been trying to work out and lose weight... and she noticed today... which is just awesome... it totally makes me feel so much better about long tiring nights like last night when so much greatness comes out of it.

I think I was feeling so good about all of it, that not only did I NOT have another nightmare... I even had a dream about me and Justin driving out to the beach for the weekend... it was such a nice dream and damn if I didn't feel good in a bikini in that dream...

Today is such a different day from yesterday, it really kind of boggles my mind... but I'm stoked it's Friday, I'm stoked to spend time with Justin this weekend, and I'm way uber thrilled to know all of you wonderful people on here. Thanks for everyone being my virtual cheerleaders... I don't think I would have ever made it this far without Justin and you guys...

I really super hope everyone had a wonderful weekend :)

Well last night was nice... it's always good to spend time with Justin. Him, me, and Shawn made French Bread Pizza last night... well I should say Justin and Shawn made French Bread Pizza last night, lol... I just opened the can to the tomatoe sauce >.< that's about the extent of my cooking abilities :P... it was very delicious!

After dinner Shawn had to go home because he lives waaay too far away, even further then I live from Justin's, and I live 5 freeways away. So then Justin and me met up with Tom at Mike's house and we watched the first Austin Powers because I had never seen it. It was pretty funny, I don't think I was mature enough to understand the humor when it first came out so I had never had a desire to see it before.

I had a pretty crazy nightmare last night that's kind of left a bad feeling lingering over me... I'm having a hard time shaking it off... It was one of those very real type ones again, only this one wasn't someone trying to kill me, this one was more realistic in terms of something that could really happen... I think I had it because I've been stressing out... I need to just take a calm breath, clear my head, and start deciding what needs to be done with my life and my situation and then do something about it. I keep waiting for things to happen that most likely aren't going to happen from just waiting... I hate making decisions, especially life changing ones, but I really need to start doing something... I'm not getting any younger. I dunno, I have alot on my mind, I really need to sort my thoughts out.

On the bright side of things, I know me and Justin are going to hang out this weekend so I'm of course looking forward to that. Not sure what we'll end up doing... I'll see if I can't get that band flyer done this weekend and him and I still need to help me apply with the company he works for because we didn't do it last night... so I'm sure that'll be something we end up doing this weekend.

Anyways, I'm tired as Hell... definitely, not in the same hyper mood I was yesterday...

I hope everyone has a nice Thursday!

YEY! It's JUSTIN NIGHT!!! EEEEeeee!

Ok ok that was probably a little much, lol, whateve :) so excited to see his smiling face! I'm really hyper... I was such a naughty girl on my diet yesterday >.< I totally didn't have a salad at Applebee's like I usually do... I got the Sampler... mmmm... it was so delicious, yum. I mean I didn't finish the whole thing so maybe that helped a little... I did eat a pretty big chunk of it though, lol. I'll catch up >.> probably tomorrow after work do a little of that gym stuff... if I'm not to tired... I'm kind of being a slacker this week, SLACKER! >.<

So I didn't do a whole lot last night... just had dinner with Tim and then I applied for a new job... I wanted to work on the band flyer but applying for a job online takes FOR-freakin-EVER!!!... but that was my first step to getting out of this hostile atmosphere I'm in right now... I don't have to take these negative peoples attitudes... they're "ick-ing my wow", you feel me? Oh look, shiney object >.>

Hey did I mention I get to see Justin tonight? Is that not the coolest thing in the world... it absolutely is... he's gonna help me apply for a job with the company he works for tonight... that'll be another good step away from this unstable irrational place they call a water department... lol.

So I'd like to take a moment step back and say... Hey! All you wonderful people on FatSecret, I'm so super proud of each and everyone of you... I read journals and check on people's progress all day while I'm at work, and every day each and every one of you continue to amaze me... I'm so glad we could be in this life long challenge together! Keep up the great work everyone!

And if you want to do yourselves a favor for the day look up a song called "Say Hey" by Michael Franti... it's such a Happy Song, it'll totally make the day look brighter!

And, for real, for real... Have a freakin awesome day!
