food?
So working out turned into a very long nap. Thats ok though, it's going to be a long night. I need to have a snack before I go out... really all I want is something terrible for me. Like McDonalds or a chicken sandwich from BK, but I don't think I will. I need to not. My willpower is pretty much all used up, but I lack the movtivation to get ready to go, so I will eat something here. Huh... I guess being lazy can pay off sometimes. I will make up for the work out tomorrow.
I am taking my Father out for his birthday tomorrow. I want to go somewhere kind of nice and not too unhealthy... any ideas? Whenever the two of us go out we always end up stuck in the whole "I don't care where we eat" thing. I don't want to do that for his birthday. I just want something different... ya know?
I am only at 1400 cals today... but I just don't know what to eattttt

Took my dad out for his birthday today... we went to Mexicalirose. It was pretty good food, and I only ate half of what I got so I think I did alright. HOwever, it was the first time we had eaten there and they brought out our food really quickly, before our drink and SILVERWARE! So we were polite and asked if we could get some silverware... 15 min later, she brought it too us. I don't think I have ever had someone bring me food without something to eat it with... it was odd. My dad had to send his back (he got some sort of stuffed chili pepper thing) because it was cold when she came with the silverware. Mine was warm enough (i'm not picky) so i kept it, and I finished just as his food came out. Ok, so you would think they would offer free dessert or at least apoligize or something... NO! It was odd. But like she said, they have only been open for 3 weeks. COME ON! Its silverware... essential to the eating process, if I may say so. oh oh and they had this like 11 yr old white kid working who had the biggest afro i have ever seen... it was good!
I felt like crap last night so I did no drinking at all... good for my cals. Tonight however is WHINO night. so yeah... not really sure if wine is better than beer (anyone?) but it won't be as good of a night for me.

so a bottle of wine has over 500cals... yikes. Enough said.
I know that I need to loose weight. I'd like to think that losing it will help me to be more confident and outgoing. But the more I think about it (and the more wine I drink... sorry) I dont feel like I am going to feel any better about myself.
How does someone improve who they are as a person?
sorry.

Did alright today... I am at about 1700cals and am not planning on eating anything else today. I start school tomorrow so that should be interesting...
I need to work on drinking more water.
I would like to be under 200lbs by my birthday in a month. It sounds attainable but the weight has just been coming off so so slooowly

I hear ya. It sure can pile on quick, but takes a loooong time to leave.
I was debating on opening a bottle of wine on Saturday...it's a good thing cause I would have drank the whole bottle (at least)... Once I have a drink, it just kinda depresses me, and I just don't care anymore...and gimme another drink...

Last night was bad. Very bad. I didn't just fall off the wagon I jumped off head first. Ugh. I was going to attempt to make it up today, but I slept in and now I have so much stuff I need to do to get ready for class tonight that I can't make it to the gym this morning. I will have to try to get there after class. Ugh. It was the kind of night that makes you feel like you've gained 5lbs. I am NOT weighing myself today.
Just updated my fitday... very bad. I can't even tell you it was just that bad.

Busy Busy day. My father bought me camo pants they are very ugly but he bought a size 16 and they fit me!! But they are still going back to the store... it was nice that they fit though... made me happy! Ate pretty well today:
Breakfast- chicken tenders (all out of cereal)
Lunch- lean pocket
Dinner- leftover general tso chicken and rice (not too much left)
Snacks- clementine, yogurt, and peanut butter cake thing (just a tiny bit)
cals: 1568
yeah so John bought the peanut butter thing but it was small to begin with and I only ate about a third of it.
Had a really good workout last night after school. I love they way my body feels after I workout. Not working out tonight though. THe school I am going to is a private catholic college and I have to write a paper about which Franciscan value I most identify with. I really hope that the rest of school isn't like this. It's just going to have to be a bs paper... I hate those the most. Give me a persuasive essay anyday not this self evaluation crap...
Have a nice night all!

Hey Alexia,
I am sorry I haven't checked in with you lately, been absent and sick. I can see you have been feeling bad, and its easy for me to say Cheer up, but I really I hope you do. And it really helps to see progress like those pants, so you know, eventhough the weight maybe isn't moving you can still be loosing... I had a week, where I weighed the same, but my measurements had shrunk a lot...
And a last thing for now, I noticed you keep apoligizing to the forums readers... There is no need, we are not the hangman or you conscience, we are your support, and we will hear whatever you have to say and try to help you through bad times...
And like it was suggested, make small goals, too much at once is bound for disaster...

Didn't end up working out last night... Jenny and I just did some laps in the pool. I went to the doctor today and got a happy little cocktail of shots for Africa and I am just beat. Its either the shots of the rain storm keeping me up last night. It's only 10 and I just want sleep. did OK today... not the best
Breakfast: apple (I was running late)
Lunch: patty melt and side salad (not the best but at least the salad instead of french fries)
Dinner: Chicken Primavera w/ extra onions
Drinks: 2.2L water
Thats all, no small meals and snacking, just two big meals. Probably not the best idea but it was a crazy day so it just kind of happened. I really should by some sort of breakfast bar for days I just don't have time.
Well I guess it's off to bed for me, it's going to be a busy weekend.

ugh... I think that I am getting sick. I hope that it is just the shots. I feel like crap. My whole body is just achy and my throat hurts like nobodys business. anyway, today was an odd day for my screwy little diet.
Breakfast: bagel w/ cream cheese (running late again had to buy at work)
Lunch: Fish fillet w/ ketchup
Snacks: trail mix and an apple
I'm not sure what dinners going to be tonight and I really do need to get to the gym today and tomarrow to make up for my kind of slacker week but argh... I just want to feel better!

Definatly sick. Went and bought ice cream to make my throat feel better (naughty I know) But its was the low fat low cal stuff. It's not the greatest it's kind of spongy but it works. No working out last night, and I do not think that I am going to make it tonight either. I really don't like being sick.
