Celebrations

Lots of hovering again this week, but I've been slack about doing Richard this week. I was really busy with finishing cleaning out the room and just was super focused about that this week.

Cleaning was a lot of work for me. It was sorting out throw away, bin, donate, and wash stuff. I own entirely too many clothes so I'm working on donating lots of my older clothes.  Soon I will be done with organizing all my stuff, once the closet all gets done, so hopefully I'll be able to focus more on the exercising and doing Richard every night again.

I'm, going to visit G and P again tomorrow. I haven't seen them in the last couple of weeks. I'm going to wear one of my new dresses and look pretty. I'm kind of hoping they notice a change in how I look. We'll just have to see!


Friday Favorites!
1. Rubber Duck Speaker
2. UK Flag Lip Tattoo
3. Polka Dot Pin-Up Pumps
4. Clean House
5. My Pink Nike Shoes - I looked on the Nike website but couldn't find them. I did buy them from the Nike Outlet Clearance section..so that might be why I can't find it, sorry!

Have a fab weekend!

Happy thoughts

Have I mentioned I ran 1/4th of a mile straight today? I couldn't even do that in Jr high when we were forced to "run" a mile once a week. :)

Also, did I mention I was down to 213 this (Saturday) morning?

Heck yes.


In other notes, I found my old Three Hour Diet book for Teens from High School. It has a lot of really good visualization ideas that I wanted to look back at. I think talking the time once a day to sit down and really think about how your body is changing and how amazing you feel from exercising and then how awesome it will to be a healthy weight again, it's really good for you! Positive vibes!

Well in the book when I started that diet (for like 5 days) in HS, I weighed 194. I found this really exciting! I can't wait until I'm down below that point! I was a sophomore in HS and weighed that much. Now as a 3rd year college student, I'm going to weigh less than that soon!

I'm soo pumped about my life changes! I'm running/walking every other day now and walking the same distance on days I don't run/walk. I'm doing the Richard Simmons tape 6 days a week (though I didn't last night because I ran out of time with putting all the Ikea furniture together). And I have so much more energy and strength I didn't have before! I'm even more flexible! I can do the butterfly stretch and put my forearms on the ground next to my feet. It feels AMAZING.

And I just have to remind myself, even on the not so great days, when the scale doesn't budge and I eat half a Ritter Sport bar or decide I can't dance, I'm still amazing! I'm doing so much good for myself.

One last mention. My clothes are starting to be really loose. I can practically shank myself in my jeans nowadays where before there were days when it was a struggled to pull them up. Even my pj shorts are super loose. Amazing :D

Day 11

I feel like this almost isn't even worth it. What's the point of a blog you know? I thought I might do this and get some support from random people but nobody knows about this blog cause I don't want to be a total weirdo and push my blog on random people. Oh well.

It's Day 11. I'm almost done with this Special K challenge. I must say, I'm going to hold all my crazy views till the end, but it's not looking so good for special K. More on that later.

I'm working on cleaning up my room. Picture the worst teenage room you've ever seen and multiply the clothes in that room by a hundred, then you have my room. It's geting better though. I'm sorting. And realizing that I don't need anything new for a very long time xD Except of course a bookcase and a set of drawers and a couch. But that's furniture. I dont have any furniture besides my bed and some nightstands (that are all crammed with books).

It's been like a day-long process so far. I skipped out on going shopping tonight to clean and I'm still working. Ughh. I just want it to be done! C "cleaned" my room once. It was terrible. I couldn't find anything! It was like she had just taken all of my stuff and shoved it somewhere! That's NOT cleaning. I'm cleaning!

I made German for dinner. I must say it's like my fav thing to eat. So nommy!

Lunch - SK protein bar

Snack - SK snack bar - chocolate pretzel one

Dinner - Red cabbage, green beans, roasted potatoes and vidalia onions, and 1 beer brat, and some grey poupon mustard, nommy!

Snack - Skinny Cow Mint Ice cream sandwich, strawberries and cream

That reminds me, last night I broke down and ate half a Ritter Sport bar, whoops. Though it was sooo delicious. Satisfied my cravings for cake too!

Goodnight dear readers.

P.S. I also didn't run today. Between cleaning and resting my leg, I figured a day off wouldn't be so bad. Remind me of this when I complain lots tomorrow =/
