The Fifth Day

Yesterday -- ((-2.6 lbs))
Today's Weigh-In: -0.2 lb
Total Loss: -2.8 lbs

Mehhh. I lied. This slow slow weight loss is frustrating, though I haven't been doing enough to warrant greater drops. I know any progress is progress but still. STILL. I am just as upset as if it had been an upward climb. But ya know. Whatever. My own fault and such. That damn coffee creamer. I buy it for myself and a girl at work, Colleen to indulge in. Colleen will  be happy that I am going to forgo drinking anymore -- and sad that I won't be bringing anymore,  hahah. Sorry, Coll!

Well anyway, I think today I'm going to go see Corey's new place,  yay! I hope they don't cook an amazing meal tonight so that I can like, not eat like a fatty. -_-

I have to be more consistent with the gym. I finished work yesterday, watched One Gay Hill -- I mean, One Tree Hill -- and then plopped in my bed and slept from 6pm to 1am. Got up and got ready for work and here I am now blogging away before patients arrive.

More movement. Instead of Netflix, I should've went to the gym. And today I know I'm not going since I'm going to Coreys. Sigh. This weekend though I think I'm going dancing, so at least that's some exercise to look forward to. I dunno. This is a long process to figure out, this whole losing weight business. Siiigh. Woe is meee!!

The Fourth Day

Today's Weigh In: -0.2 lb
Total Loss: -2.6 lbs



     Still ok. I'm gonna be super mega hard core tonight. Anything in the downward direction is fine with me, and I can blame my momma for the applebee's y mi amigitos nuevos por la culpa del coronas -_-; lol. But, hardcore today! I'm at work sipping my coffee, and it occurred to me that I should probably count my coffee creamer in my thought process of "eating" since the serving size is one measely tablespoon. I have to be less heavy handed with it.
But I mean, look at it...... soooooo freakin delicious!!!
But like, this part isn't quite so delicious....
So.... 40 calories. Not bad right? But wait, there's 32 servings....what  the eff, I sure don't drink 32 cups of coffee and I've polished off a bottle of these in a day before. Which means, there goes an additional 1,280 calories in my diet. Holy mother of Jesus! That means, realistically, my "one cup" of coffee is probably like 200 calories.....uyyy..... I'm gonna have to stop drinking this liquid deliciousness.

The Third Day

Day Three Weigh In: -0.6 lb
Total Loss: -2.4 lbs

I'm pretty happy with this because at work yesterday we decided to do a little party. We had bagels, devilled eggs, donuts, munchkins, flavored coffees and creamers.... It was sinfully wonderful. Best Saturday of work like, ever. But, I made it up for it as best as I could with some night time exercising last night. And from this morning's weigh-in, I guess it paid off!


Inspired by my continued reduction, I went to the gym bright and early. I have a new accomplishment: 30 full minutes on the treaded StairMaster! I'm so happy. I felt pretty amazing after my workout, then my mother has to spoil my joy by being all nice and crap and bringing me home Applebee's leftovers. So, now I'm tentively munching on this quesedilla, thinking "well there goes another step on the StairMaster," hahah.


So here's my hair after Jen's straightening it on Friday:


Yay! Looks so pretty.
I know with my face, I have all the potential in the world to be quite a beautiful lady. If only I could be persistent and keep this weight coming off. Mind you, this musing comes in between bites of quesedilla and cheese stick.

The Second Day

Day Two Weigh In: -1.8 lbs

==2am==

Ahh. Instant gratification. It's good to get that ball rolling again, but I won't feel any sort of accomplishment til it's at least 10 lbs. My successes shouldn't be measured in numbers and I know that, but well for now they are. They just are =P My friend Jen straightened my hair for me last night, and honestly it just made me feel so much prettier. I think my face is too chubby for curly hair, and it keeps me looking like a cute chubby fat baby, versus looking like a "pleasantly plump" woman when it's straight. I'll be all kinds of computer-savvy and figure out how to upload a pic of it later.

Well, I'm starting off today in a good mood, despite having to work from 4am to 3pm. I actually woke up way before my alarm clock and was able to finish up my homework for the week. One less thing to fret about for the weekend, yay! I want to keep busy with crafts. Crocheting mostly for right now. A girl at work, Jess, is having a baby, and I want to try my hand at a baby blanket with this new Tunisian crochet technique I've been learning. I found an adorable pattern and I think it would be a really great gift. It's all about the commitment; I picked up my mother's terrible habit of starting projects but never quite finishing them (you know, like my weight loss, hahah.) But I think when there's outside incentive, sometimes there's more of a drive to commit to it.

The First Day

Official Start. Of being awesome.
I'm gunna be a good girl today. Uh huh, uh huh.

Starting Weight: A Lot.
Weight Lost: 0.0 lbs

^^ Very official documentation.


Perhaps at times my methods are a bit unorthodox, but I'm a firm believer in the end justifies the means. I think maybe I can use my procrastination to my advantage. At least that's the plan. I'd rather find some success in this attempt before gloating about it, though. Anyway, I will figure it out somehow.


I think you can only sink so low in the mud before eventually you realize it would be a lot more pleasant to just get the fuck up.
