| Hey guys! I'm back on the diet and exercise bandwagon! Only this time it's a little different... I'm still working with the "mostly healthy, but I can have whatever I want in moderation" diet - but this time I'm adding more intense work-outs! Before when I would "work-out" it was mainly just floor exercises (which are good, and can help you tone, and I still do them some days), but I wasn't really pushing myself. I would hardly ever break a sweat. And hardly ever work-out long enough to get the health benefits. So now I've started going to the gym regularly. I've started taking cycling classes (killer, but great!). I even have a gym buddy!! I WILL be bikini and shorts ready this year!! We're gunna do this!! 
Bikinis! 
Short Shorts! | | |
| Happy New Years guys! I know that probably a lot of us on here have made new years resolutions, many of which have to do with losing weight. I've never been a big resolutions fan, but when I did make some - I never really stuck with them anyway. So this year I decided to go with something a little easier, broader, but still definitely very important for me. My resolution is: I will take better care of myself. I know it's not huge or life changing, but it's just what I need. I need to take better care of myself physically (eating right, working out), mentally (counter-acting my stress and sometimes depression), financially (looking for a better job, developing a budget), etc. I'm sure not all these things will happen this year - but I'm going to take steps in the right direction. So that's my goal this year. In other news - my husband has recently turned into a gym and diet junkie. (This was not a resolution for him, this actually started before the new year). Anyway - he goes to the gym after I go to bed (which is fairly early because I have to get up very early for work); and has more recently started watching what he eats as well (with some of my help, since he knows I know a lot in that category). But long story short - very soon I'm gunna have a hunk of burning love on my hands! (Does anybody else know this phrase? Or was this just one of the weird ones my family used?) I digress. The point is, it's motivating me to start taking a little better care of myself, since I don't want to have a hot husband and be a "bleh" wife. So here's to new goals! Baby steps. Progress. Permanent, healthy change. We can do this! Current weight: 156

| WOW. A lot has happened since I was last on here. Let's see... well I finally turned 21. I didn't reach my "weight goal" by then, but I wore a cute dress and had fun anyway. Biggest thing that's happened since the last time I was on? I GOT MARRIED! Yup, I'm a wife now! (Still getting used to saying that though). Let's see, what else... Oh yeah, we moved back to the part of Cali we're both from, so it's nice to be back here. I still work for Starbucks... and yeah, that's kinda it. I've also gained some weight. We moved with me having a job (I transferred), but my husband didn't for a few months, so that put a HUGE stress on us financially, and when I get stressed - I eat. And not the things I should. Things are finally starting to look up, but slowly; so I'm hoping to turn my eating back around. Will you guys help me? So, my weight this morning was 161.2. Let's do this!
Update: 12/8: 158.2
12/9: 157.8
12/10: 157.0

| If I don't post for a while - there's one main reason. I've let myself slip into binging and I'm embarrassed. My last "binge session" lasted a week and a half and I let myself gain TWELVE POUNDS. Yeah, you read that right. I was binging on several thousand calories of sweets (generally chocolate in some form) every day. I've always been an all or nothing girl - I either starve, or shove everything in sight in my mouth. So I'm back to the not eating very much me, and could finally allow myself to hop back on here. I'm still sad with how much I let myself eat - I mean, looking back, it was really gross. Anyways... Current weight 151.6
(Last day of the "binge" I had let myself get to 155) 44 days till my 21st
(I had REALLY wanted to get to 130 by then. I know that won't happen now... but I'm gunna try my best!)
More bikini thinspo... we can do it girls!!

| Ok - so the last three days have been more than normal (intake wise) but certainly not out of control. The last two days I ate a little bit more so that the boy wouldn't get suspicious/upset, and today we have company coming over and we're going to a pizza place for dinner - I'm just gunna try to get a salad and do the best I can do. Then hopefully starting tomorrow I can get back to my "normal". Guests will still be here, but I'll try to just eat my own food (they're not my guests, they're grandma's guests... so I shouldn't have to spend too much time with them). Planning on fitting in a little bit of exercise tonight too. :) B: 1/2 bagel - 155
1/2 chicken sausage - 60
S: watermelon - 35
L: chicken patty - 140
slice cheese - 60
ketchup - 15
S: strawberries - 15
D: TBA (probably salad, or maybe 1 piece pizza) I've been watching lot of Supersize vs. Superskinny (on YouTube) - too bad I don't live in the UK and can watch all the seasons... I love that show!! Weight this morning was 143.0 57 days till my 21st!
I'm still working on the "getting skinny legs" part - most everything else is falling into place. Any suggestions for thinning my legs? (I already to lunges and leg lifts).
