1 pound at a time

weighed in today at 149!  In the 140s again and it feels so good!!!  I had a lazy day and didn’t go to the gym, but hey, we all need those days.  Back to the gym tomorrow to work out hard!

I weighed this morning and I gained 3 pounds :/ But i’m not that disappointed because I was so scared I’d gained like 10!!  So I can deal with 3.  I probably gained more but I’ve been working out and eating very healthy this week.  This is just the only time i’ve been brave enough to weigh myself since spring break.  Anyway, that puts my CW at 153.  I just worked out and burned about 350-400 cals.  About to do some sit ups/jumping jacks in my room to burn a little more.  Keep going and stay strong!

Today has been an excellent day for me!  I got up early and had a good breakfast before classes.  Walked a lot, due to my classes being far away from my dorm, and when classes were finished for the day I hit the gym!  Burned 500 calories!!!  Then I went to the store and bought some healthy foods (raspberries, blackberries, grapes, hummus, and pretzels).  For lunch I had half of a primo Hang 10 smoothie with no syrup (so it was just fruit and juice) from Port City Java, and for dinner I had the rest of it with some pretzels and hummus!  I’m feeling great and can’t wait for tomorrow! 

I don’t have class until 1:30 so I’m waking up early, getting a good breakfast, and going to the gym and doing the same 500 cal workout as today!  Bring it on!!!

So, a hobby of mine is to sit on google for hours and look up my favorite celebs’ diet and workout routines.  Although much of what I read is probably bullshit, made up to draw readers and money, I do learn a lot.  Anyway, I was reading something earlier and it said, “It doesn’t matter who you are, you can have a sexy and beautiful body”.  That struck me. I have a tendency to blame my weight on genetics, but that’s no excuse.  I’m young (19) and have absolutely no excuse for letting myself get like this.  But I have the power to change it.  I have the power.  I have a gym at my college, and I can make the choice to eat healthy.  I WILL do this!  I am in control of my happiness and one day soon, I will have a sexy and beautiful body!!!
