Okay Folks,

Status:

Height: 5' 5 1/2"
Current Weight: 132
Goal Weight: 125

For two days I have not had any food. Why do you ask? Simply because I am on the Master Cleanse and which simply why today is my last day of doing it. Jesus! Can you believe that some people do the MC for 40 days?!? That's over a month without food! Heck, I'm giving up on day 2. You've suppose to do it for at least 10 days but I missed food to much and I haven't had a bowel movement since Monday (TMI!). I can do it once a week but not everyday.

Most of the weight lost from the MC is water weight and so far I lost almost 3 lbs but I have a feeling I'm going to be gaining it back because after work I can home from nothing but lemon juice in me all day and come home to have myself a junkfood feast. Then I had some pot and watched Street Fighter the legend of Chung Li and my gawd, that movie was terrible. It was also hilarious because it had ridiculous and predictable dialog.

So I just finished the movie and with me being baked at the moment I decided today is the end of bad eating habits or at least try. :hurray:
Tomorrow morning, Thrusday March 16, 2009 I will do my best to go to the gym, to eating at or under 18 points and journal the food I ate in the weekend because honestly, I'm sick and tired of that Weight Watchers scale going up and down 3 lbs.

Hmm, I should write more of my school papers high, because I have a lot to say. By the way, who ever said pot smokers makes you lazy is ignorant because I am very functional and active when I'm high and I'm a lot more tolerable......I have a paper to write tomorrow....I'm going get baked for it. :sifone:
 
Maybe your next movie should be a mash up of "Back to the Future" and "Up in Smoke" :rotflmao:

In the 35 years I've dabbled in the weeds and its by-products, 'Ambition Pot' has never found its way into my bong or papers. I doubt it ever will, either :mad:

Best of luck on your 'higher' education and herbal reduction.

I own "Up in Smoke" and Back to the Future doesn't strike me as a funny movie. I enjoy The Office and South Park.

So Saturday was my weigh-in at Weight Watchers. I gained 4 lbs. I'm now 136.2 and I am not surprised at all. I'm considering to get counseling from my school about my eating behavior. In the meantime I'm waiting in the mail for "Eat to Live" by Dr. Joel Fuhrman. The book has excellent reviews on Amazon and I liked the idea of ridding diseases by eating a healthier diet and I'm also looking for a natural cure for depression for my boyfriend. Yes, I know St. John's Wort and Sam-E are natural but if my boyfriend was to get off his medication he'd have to wait 2 weeks to try natural remedies because anti-depressant have a half-life and 2 weeks is too long for him.

Really bummed about the weight gain. I reached my goal once, which was about 4 years ago but now it's really difficult to lose that last 15 lbs. The key to my success was journaling and I have to get on it. I have a smart phone where I can add my points online to WW but I was never committed. So I think I should stick to the old fashion way and hand write it because it feels like a contract.

This Saturday will be a very special day. I will be going to the Renaissance Faire! It will be a funfilled day of fun, costumes, games, spending, and FOOD! I'm going to reserve all of my weekly points allowance for that day.

Until then I will remind myself everyday that the key to success is journaling!
 
Budgeting

I starting to feel like there is hope now because I've completed my 2nd day of journaling. It's not impressive but it means a lot to me because I gave up journaling when I reached my goal a long time ago. :reddevil:

After work today I decided to go to the gym and do 40 minutes of the elliptical machine because for my weight 40 minutes of moderate exercise equal 2 activity points but a lot of other women beat me to the machines when I got there. I saw a line for the machines and felt very discourage but I thought "okay, I'll wait it out and do some weights until someone gets out". Unfortunately, the line grew and I said screw it, let me at least do 3 reps of my weight routine and bail. BTW, if you're a girl who works out with your hair down and if you leave your personal belongings in a locker without a lock you're a dumbass. I had to get that off my chest.

After feeling it was pointless to go to the gym when I got home I tossed a 99% fat-free burrito from Trader Joe's in the microwave. When I was done eating it I realized I miscalculated the points value and ended the night with a balance of -1 point. A bit annoyed by that but at least it was over by one point.

But the thing that made my night was a spontaneous call from my good friend to go out for tea which was five minutes after eating the burrito. She was hungry so we went to Togo's. I was going to order a meal knowing full well I had dinner I thought, "Oh, it's a special night because I'm with my friend and I haven't seen her for like forever so why not get a "little" bite?" But when I got there their sandwich menu was not appealing so I started gazing over the dessert to find out they charge a brownie for $2.99. "$2.99 for a brownie??? Fuck that shit. I could by a box of brownie for that price". :cuss:

My friend ordered it to go so we could sit down at Peet's Coffee. I order a rare tea because the server convinced me it was special. I was also attracted to the bakery section there. They kinda look good but I started thinking how many points was in one and if it would really satisfy me. It wouldn't. Got my tea in a little pot because it was "rare" and I was about to put sugar in the it, which is about one point, but with one sniff of it I knew it was powerful healthy green tea like the one from Chinese restaurants and adding sugar would defeat its taste.:hurray: And thank god, I didn't want to use any more points.

Overall, I had a great time with my friend. She totally made my day. Keeping a journal is a lot like budgeting. I stop in front of the item I desire and really ask myself if I need it or want it. Most of the time I want it. :piggy: I did this a lot when I was successful on Weight Watchers but I don't know how I forgot it. Onwards to day three!
