*pouts* I WANT weekend plans!!! All my friend are in cali and in three years I've hardly made any here and they're always busy. So you tell all them people to call me up and I'll hang out while you go nap :D Course back when I was in Cali I blew my friends of alot to play an mmorpg...the one I played before I moved here and started another mmorpg called WoW...sound familiar? LMAO!!!! WoW=gaming crack. Not sure how you play and still get your school stuff done but I sure couldn't. I had no self control :X.

Haha, I defintely know what you mean by gaming crack lol! I shall tell my friends to call you! They re a riot :biggrinjester:

But alas, I think I just may have to ditch out plans with them, yes all of them..school I suppose is more important so thats what I shall focus on. But, tonight my roomates and my roomate's sister, and our neighbors after I get out of class are going to go to Applebees for dinners and half priced appetizers so yayy for that! Which is great cuz im starviinnnggg! Even tho i feel like ive eaten a lot today, but I swear the more I eat the hungrier I am. I think my stomach and my brain are in an indisputable feud...

Today Ive had:
breakfast
2 packets of kashi go lean vanilla hot cereal w/ dash of cinnamon and 1 banana
lunch
2 bean and cheese quesidillas w/ salsa
baked tortilla scoops w/ salsa
1-100 calorie pudding

and for dinnner....I have no idea! But I am defintely thinking about my delicious options-stupid delicious food thats bad for me :toetap05:

**side note: I told my boyfriend what I was eating for lunch and he sarcastically added "Way to mix it up" and not missing a beat lol I told him that I was poor and its not my fault I have live off of $40 of grocerys every two weeks! Thats practically poverty lol---ahh the life of a college student, where you eat the same thing for days so you wont waste leftovers, and you will pick off the moldy part of the bread and still eat it, because "It's still good!" Haha I cannot wait to get a career and be able to afford more than 2 meals a week!

haha, my brother's in college, too, and when he comes home, he always gets my parents to buy him lots and lots of groceries so he has something to eat when he gets back. Which is odd, because my parents have paid for the meal plan for him... haha.
My sister and I don't have to worry about it, though, because even though we're in college, we both live at home. We have almost too much food around the house, you know what I mean? haha...

Just stopping by to say hola. :) Hope everything is going well for you!

Lol I defintely can relate, I live in an apartment and dont really have a meal plan so when I do come home I make my parents buy me grocerys too, I also do my own grocery shopping which means I open up my parents cupboards and fridge and see what I can steal lol! Glad to know Im not the only one thats like that!
 
Headahe...

I am having the worst headache today, I constantly get migraines and I am so sick of it! AND Im out of Ibuprofen....just my luck--after I got back from dinner last night I pretty much just collapsed in bed and went to sleep, but I had a headache before I went to bed too--so its probably just the same one and its wreaking havoc on my day.

Im in class again today, hopefully not all day (til 4pm) but who knows I probably will be. My dinner was pretty devestating last night (1/2 a cheeseburger 1/2 order of fries, 4 honey bbq boneless chix wings), but Im kind of in a who cares mood, and probably will be until spring break starts. Booo!

I also called my b/f last night to see what he was doing and he was hanging out at a friends house with a bunch of people cuz a friend turned 21 like 2 days ago so they were celebrating. Lol, poor guy--my b/f doesnt drink so he was being the babysitter for a bunch of drunkies haha-poor baby...

Today Ive had
peanut butter samich
1 diet soda
 
What a Long day..

So my migraine got progressively worse sitting in class today. I couldn't even concentrate or keep my head up. I cradled my head in my hand while massaging my temples and trying to keep down the nauseus feeling without falling asleep. It definetely was a very shitty day to be in class for 5-1/2 hours. I didnt finish my peanut butter sandwich I made for breakfast or my diet soda i brought because I thought I might lose it in class. But I forced myself to hork down a granola bar so my stomac had something to churn on instead of emptiness.

I was so grateful to get ot of class that when I got home I literally begged my roomate for ibuprofen went to my room shut my blinds threw my backpack on the floor,took off my clothes and crawled into bed clutching my head...then 5 hours later (7:30) I finally woke upfeeling better but still groggy, and praising the lord my headache was gone. I was so hungry too that I ate my leftovers from last night and collapsed in front of the TV thinking about studying for my HR test that I have tommorow.

What a day...only 4 days til spring break--THANK GOD! I cannot wait for it to be here so I can get a little R & R. I need to make a hair cut appointment as well as a psychiatrist appointment for break too so I can get my prescriptions refilled and get my highlights redone.

Hopefully tommorow will be better...I defintely plan to go to bed early tonight, I am such a bum...

Food for the day
3/4 of a peanut butter samich- 180?
3/4 diet soda
1 Kashi granola bar: 120
1/2 cheeseburger
10 fries
4 honey bbq boneless chx wings
WATER

Oh! And I thought I had a shitty day. I consider myself very very lucky that I don't get migraines... one of my friends gets them and she can't eat certain things like peanut butter, and they get so bad she has to stay in bed for days... She has even taken an anticonvulsant for them... I think that would suck beyond words. I'd much rather have what I have than having migraines. At least when I have an "attack" I can fake some semblance of sanity. haha...
I'm amazed that you can even look at a computer so soon after a migraine... I know when I get headaches (minor ones, compared to yours) I can't look at any type of screen... even afterward it's still kind of hard.

I know tomorrow will be better for you (after all, could it possibly be worse?:ack2:)
I hope you feel better.
Thanks for visiting my journal! I know when I feel like shit, I don't bother going to other people's journals... haha.

Thanks for stopping by Annie :)

Fortunately I am feeling better, but I have to say I am very prone to migraines my mom gets them all the time, and being in class today with bright lights was torture! I can't eat when I have them because It makes me feel like Im going to throw up and I have to pretty much stay in bed wtih the lights off until it passes--it feels like my head is about to split open...I even have had to tell numerous places that Ive worked for that I get migraines, because I have to call in bcause of them. My doctor at school thinks that I should consider a medication fo it, which I know I should I just dont really want to be on another medication right now, so until my ibuprofen stops working I guess I'll consider, but right now I pretty much just live with like 2-3 headaches a week and really only a bad ba migraine attack like once a month...

What a life

:conehead: <--my head on migraine
 
Ugh! I hope your migraine tappers off or at least goes away! I've been getting them since I was little, have been on many medications for them [that don't work] and can go weeks with one and every few months, I have a month long one. They ARE torture!

Have you ever discussed or tried Topamax for migraines? It's a prescription drug and does work rather well UNLESS you are prone to kidney stones. I was on it, loved it, but kept landing myself in the ER for kidney stones. Now not everyone gets them but they do tell you to keep up your water intake on the medication.

>>:conehead:<<(It looks like it has a smile... tell me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure you wouldn't be smiling?)haha... sorry, semantics, I know.

Blah! That still really sucks. I think you should seriously consider any medication that could possibly reduce your migraines, in frequency and severity. I don't know how you can live with that. I really admire you for it. You're so strong!! :D You should be proud, I don't know a lot of people who could deal with something like that on a regular basis... I certainly couldn't... at least when anything happens with me I'm not in physical pain! :ack2:

:D Thanks for your positivity in my journal... you really helped when I was down. :)

I hope your migraine is gone now... how long do they usually last?

Feel better!!!!!!

I'm feeling like a brand new lady today :blush5: I got up around 8:45 for class today @ 9:30--yay for last day of class! Had class til' about 12 I took my test, which I think I rocked out- and I got my paper back 50/50 yayy! Then I kissed that class goodbye and headed back home--had lunch and talked to my roomate, who is sick from the stomach flu (I heard her throwing up earlier) poor girl, and my other roomate was out shopping. So I settled in front of my computer and watched some TV on DVD on my computer, then took a nap. Now Im awake and positive and thinking about doin gsome homework thats due tommorow--Boo! Other than that my day was pretty alright :)

Breakfast:
1 Kashi Granola Bar
1-100 calorie pack craisins

1 box of mac and cheese

snack:
doritos
Dinner:
1 lean cuisine lasagna (not that great :( )
Side Salad
Dessert

*side note-Annie, my migraines last anywhere from 2-3 hours to 2-3 days. It gets pretty tired fast, especially when I dont know when or where they are gunna hit--what a life!
 
That's GREAT!! I'm so happy you're feeling better!

I don't know how you put up with those damn migraines... bah.

Awwhh thanks Annie! Haha Ive been told im a pretty optimistic person before but its nice to here, because from my personal opinion Im kind of a grump-pot lol. I dont really have a bad temper or anything and pretty much reserve my crankiness for my close family and my boyfriend (Haha poor guy!). Otherwise Id probabaly end up friendless! But I guess I dont ever regret anything and I try not to let little things bother me...Im pretty much just :chillpill: !

Haha--

well aside from that, things have been pretty normal, last night I called my boyfriend and he was super crabby before bed so we talked literally for like a minute and then I watched some program on TLC called the half ton dad and the half ton teen or something. Which was severly interesting! I couldnt watch the rest of the half ton teen, but I so wante to. I couldnt ge over the mom of this 19 year old boy who was like 800+ pounds she was a complete enabler and she like pretty much fed the boy til he was sick, and he said that she was his best friend. It was very fascinating. Hopefully I can find a link about the show to post...defintely worth checking out.

Today has been a blah food day-I dont really have much food in my apartment due to spring break coming up so this morning i had

Breakfast
1 diet green tea
2 poptarts
lunch
1 blueberry bagel
w/ 2 tbsp creamcheese
Mixed Fruit
Gardettos
Snack:
Twix Bar >.<
Dinner
Mcdonalds...does it get any worse?
snack:
Candy--It does!

**But I weighed myself tonight, it wasn't pretty but its guaranteed to be lower tommorow, it was after I ate and I was fully clothed--soooo Im offically back into gear because now I know the wrongdoing of my diet**

I also assigned a goal date for my 1st goal weight--which is on March 23rd-The day after spring break is over, which is 2 weeks from now :)

--Wish me Luck!--
1 diet green tea

The half ton teen one, I've seen it three times on TLC and I just cannot get over how his mother uses "i lost my baby when he was 19 months, i dont wanna again" yet she feeds him and gives him whatever he wants, SHE is gonna end up killing him by letting him eat himself to death. Which is no better than her baby dying, yanno? I just dunno how you can do that to your kid, someone to themselves might not notice the increase of gain till waaay later, but as a mother she can see him from a second point of view yet she chose to do nothing!!!

Oh I know! The mother completely infuriated me! And its not like she was the picture of health either. I dont think it takes much for people to see that she was very depressed and the thought of her son growing up andleaving her was a fear that she could not deal with, so what does she do? Babies him, feeds him til hes engored, bathes him, and treats him like a spoiled child. Its unbelievable. I hope once he loses the weight and moves away he realizes what his mom has done to him, and that she in fact is not his best friend, even if she had her "best intenions" I also think the dad should have been more involved....its not like your son turns 800 lbs overnight. Why wasnt 300 or even 500 a problem?? I mean really...
 
So I succesfully overslept today-due to a faulty alarm clock and missed my work shift this morning from 8am-12pm so hopefully I dont get reprimanded too badly from my work. *Yikes!* I have class from 2:30-5:30 tonight, but have to meet with a group at 12 for a class project, that is due tommorow! But after that then I get to leave tommorow so wahoo! I am down weight from yesterday-but im not surprised haha I had weighed myself last night fully clothed and retaining water and my meals from the day. But Im still about the same that I have been. But Im making the effort--finally! So this is what I've had today:

Breakfast:
None (was sleeping!)
Lunch:
1 Lean Cuisine Potstickers! - 260 *Yummm :drool5:*
1 Banana- 105
Diet Sprite-0
Total so far: 335

I plan to take a granola bar to class tonight, and I pulled come chicken breast out of the fridge so I can eat some of that tonight as well. So hopefully things go well :)

Until next time...:leaving:

Yay! Today Im going home from break *Wahoo!* I dont have much to update since last night. But it was so friggin' windy out last night, I swear I was like hallucinating when I was sleeping and forgot it was so windy. But in my dream like state I thought the noise I heard was a male zebra and he was moaning because he lost his mate! LOL am I crazy or what haha, I defintely need spring break to happen now!

Hopefully I get out of my lab class early today, because afterwards I have to go home-pack, do my dishes, and then drive a 1/2 hour north (I live south) to pick up my ex-boyfriend to bring home. So Im hoping the weather isnt crappy!

Until next time

1 granola bar: 140
snack:
1 piece of coffee nut cake (it was a ladys birthday that I work with today) it was sooo good :drool5:

Picking up an ex huh? Sounds risky
Click to expand...

Haha nah, its just kind of a weird situation we dated my freshmen year in highschool for a few months hen I broke up with him and have been with my current boyfriend since (Today is actually or 6 year anniversry!) and in highschool we stopped talking (me and my ex-boyfriend) and just recently like the start of this year we started talking again, he goes to a school close to my current school so weve hung out and everything. But hes technically engaged and I say technically because thats also a weird situation (He met a girl at school his first semester, last fall and she was a transfer student from England and on the second night they hung out they jokingly decided to get engaged, but then the joke turned or something so now hes engaged--but his fiance/gf moved back to england in December and for his Spring break hes flying out to England tommorow) so with that he needs a ride home tonight and since I dont have classes on thurs or fri i said that i could give him a ride home--me being the nice person that I am.

He actually has spent the night over at my place a few weeks ago-nothing big, we were drinking, I slept on the floor him on the couch-nothing scandalous haha. So really its just more the fact that I will have company on the ride home other than my Chinchillas so that will be nice :)

My boyfriends knows all this too, so no secrets, no risks---
