So I haven’t been having the best week so far.  It’s just one of those times where everything that can go wrong will.  I am taking 2 weeks off from my team the wild cats.  I have a lot of thinking to do and as well as school and work.  School is wearing me out.  Why does it have to cost so much? I need to get my focus to where it should be.  I just want to get my life started and on track.  I’m almost 20 and I have no clue where my life is heading as of now.  I need some direction and motivation.  I often lack motivation and have a hard time staying focused on something.  I definitely am guilty of self sabotaging myself.  I try to give my best, but I just get so unmotivated. 

my long term goals are:

Lose 30 pounds by June.

Save up my money.

Get the best grades that I can get.

Overall organize my adult life.

I really hope I can meet those goals.  Theres a lot of things in my life that I feel that I need to change.  I know I can do it.  One thing I applaud myself on is that I am very optimistic and hopeful.  I’m a bit of a dreamer though which tends to make my concentration go out the door.  But I can do it, I know I can.  You people on here are really great.  Everyone that has been encouraging me is just awesome and I am thankful for each and everyone of you on here.  You guys are my inspiration.  Seeing how far all of you have come makes me feel that I can do it too.  Thank you all for being there for me.  Me,  being a person that you don’t even really know. Which I think is awesome.  Oh I thought of another goal:  Encourage everyone just as they have encouraged me.  I don’t know if any of you are spiritual, but if you are then please pray for me.  God has been a big influence in my everday decisions.  Although I dont know why so many doors at times are shut in my face, I know that He opens another one for me.  I havent been able to smile genuinely all week and I did just now.   So thank you everbody for thinking about me and helping me to keep going.  I hope everyone is doing awesome and I will be thinking about you all!!!

I know that 2008 is going to be a good year for me.  I really think that.  i guess we’ll see!

 I just think it all depends on what I do with it.  Keep my goals!

Today I am going to drink lots and lots of water and do an hour of cardio and 45 minutes of strength training.

I’m super tired right now.  I’m at the gym.  I’ve had the past 4 days off and now I work 8 days in a row.  whoo!

  How is everyone doing today?

was well spent!!  very good time indeed.  Well alls I know is that this year is going to be awesome and Iam going to stick to ALL of my goals and meet them!!

I hope everyone had an amazing new years.  Good luck to everyone!

So  I had a brief hiatus for he holidays.  I didn’t overeat as bad as I thought I would though.  I kept getting so full so fast!  It was awesome!  I didn’t very much water.  I had a lot of drink. LOL But non of which that were water.  I’m back on that and on full force.  I’m carrying my gallon jug around from now on.  Right now I am at work and I think that I will do some weight lifting today and do some cardio at home.

How was everyones Christmas?  Mine was very nice.  Santa brought me lots and lots of goodies.  I hope that everyone had an awesome Christmas and is now ready to get back on to their schedules!

So for the last 2 days….I have been sooo busy…Christmas junk

 I can’t wait for Christmas, but I’m sad because it’s coming so fast!!..Oh well I guess…

I’ve been doing pretty good with working out…..I got the Carmen Electra Striptease workouts…ha I really like them…you can work up a pretty good sweat if you do it to the max!…

I thought I was going to splurge yesterday…but I didn’t really…for dinner a friend of mine and I went out to eat…..We both shared an appetizer…and then we got soup and sand….I had just a little bit of the appetizer and then my soup and I was sooo full that I could not eat more than alittle bit from my sandwich…so I wrapped it up….But I was happy bcause I stopped myself from over indulging. 

I’m at the gym right now…I opened it up….and I forgot my breakfast…I remembered to bring my gigantic water bottle….but not really a good breakfast…All I have in my bag is a little box of raisins and a 100 calorie pack of oreos…good breakfast huh?

My goal for today is to do 45 minutes of cardio and 25 minutes of toning/stretching

Hope everyone is having a good day!!

I think I might use this as a food journal too!  Then you guys can tell me when I’m eating too much!!

for breakfast I’m having one small biscuit and tbs. of sausage gravy with 2 sausage links and a glass of fat free skim milk..

Okay so I have a sweet tooth…does anyone know any good for you sweet snacks?

My sister and I were talking and we decided its not fair!  We love different foods and eating them!  But if I seriously ate once a month at a fast food place…I swear I would gain 25 lbs taht year…..I exercise…sometimes not enough….

I just want to really stick to this..and I think I will…I also start off so strong…so I think I’m going to take a different approach….and start off slow and really listen to how i’m feeling….

my goals for today is….drink lots of water, cardio for at least 30 minutes, weights for 25 minutes and stretching for 5 minutes….maybe I’ll do pilates when I get home from work..we’ll see…

I hope everyone is doing good today!!

So right now I am snowed in….14 inches plus today!  But my boss at the gym told me to not worry about coming because it’s just a white out outside.

Today:

I need to get my final for my internet class done!!

Exercise on my elliptical and I feel in the mood for some pilates.

Drink lots of water!

Make x-mas cookies

eat more veggies and maybe make some ckn.

Anyone have any good recipes…but for things like wraps…ckn salad gets old!

Like everyone else, I am here to lose weight. I don’t have the guts to tell anyone my real weight, so I figured going on a website would make me feel more comfortable. So, Hello everyone!!

I really would like to get down to 130 lbs! But I have a laziness problem and tend to get so off track and unmotivated. I want to do things right. I can’t expect fast results. I not only want to eat well and exercise, but I want my mind to be in a healthier place. I don’t want to just do those things because I have too. I want to enjoy it and want to do it. I really need to fight this laziness issue. I have a bit of a boost though. I just started a new job at a gym. So, I have access to equipment and a pool/sauna/jacuzi. I also have an elliptical at home too and other workout gear! So I really have no excuses.

Another goal of mine is to write in here daily!

I hope I can keep up and actually do it this time.
