Thanks!!! But I came home from work and my parents made a Papa Murphy's pizza... so I ended up eating some anyway! lol no will power when it comes to pizza :ack2:

After dinner I went to my friend's house. Didn't plan on drinking. Drank. Beer... and a good amount of it. But I'm proud to say that when all 4 of my friends decided to make a pizza I didn't have ANY of it and my friend also made a bowl of rice.. I didn't try sharing or asking for some. Usually I'd be stalking her kitchen looking for food but I fought the drunken munchies last night and survived :D

Today is a fresh start - had Go Lean crunch cereal for breakfast. Got my hair colored so I'm feelin' pretty :D Sun's shining... going back to school today... and I think I'll hit up the gym later! :)

I think pizza is a universal weakness... it's just sooo good (especially with beer ;) )

And nice job on the munchies. I'm pretty sure I would not have your will power. I always feel like when I'm out with friends drinking, it's all fair game... but then again, that doesn't happen very often anymore ;)

CHEERS TO KICK ASS WEEK Pt DEUX :cheers2: It's gonna rock!!!

Holy crap. I seriously have been trying all morning to get this to work. I have tried logging in countless times... I'm reading my responses and reading your journals and wanting to respond soo bad and YESSSS SOMEHOW I GOT MY OLD ACCOUNT TO WORK!!!! :D

I am sooooo happy. YESYESYES okay time to go say hi to my friends here :seeya:

:hurray::hurray::hurray::hurray:
So happy to have you back!!!! I was seriously depressed and even started thinking about Wendy's for lunch again! That was the worst news logging in and seeing that this morning - it put me in a funk! So glad it worked.
Sorry for all your troubles getting it to work - I hate computers.
How is your cold doing today? I'm guessing not that good if you are going for a nap! Rest up Sarah, so good to have you back! :waving:
 
It put me in a funk this morning too. I wasn't even going to get up b/c I thought, "oh Sarah's not feeling well and probably sleeping in and didn't post anything yet". Then I'm like, "no get up and see how she's doing". I was so sad. I called my husband at work...

What a waste of time. I'm just so glad your back. :D:D:D

And I do hope your feeling better!!

Aww... I was so upset this morning... like I even thought about it in the shower. I was like... "this is like making a new friend that you hang out with all the time and all of a sudden you just stop" and I was so sad because I wanted to be a part of this still soo much and I didn't want to go on without you guys!!! I'm so happy it works now! I saw Ana wrote in your diary that she was having the same problems. So I wasn't the only one! I had a nice nap and am feeling okay... I've just got a dry, scratchy throat, no appetite, and a very tired body.

Aww you are too funny! I did think about you too... I was like "great... now I can't write all my stuff in the morning for Marie" lol!! So yes I was very relieved when I was finally able to get back on here!!! I'm so glad we all have each other.... couldn't do this without you guys!!!

SOOOO I'm going to put my updated post for the day HERE now that I don't need that other journal. As some of you already know, I'm SICK! Nothing extreme... I'm just trying to fight it before anything gets worse. And it's NOT gonna stop me from going to the gym this week!

Yesterday I didn't go to the gym. It was my first day off from running in... jeez I can't even remember! :ack2: I guess it was nice... in a way... but I was happy to get back on the treadmill this morning. I ran 3 miles and walked a little bit on an incline for 40 minutes total. Never got to the arms and abs stuff but that's okay.

Also, I took some new progress pics. I posted them in my "new" journal and in the "Before, After, and In-Between" group. But I'm going to put them here too because I always put my pictures in my journal. So here they are!!!

The first one is my first snap shot from September, the second is from this morning, and the last one is from shopping yesterday!

I'm going to get some homework done and make dinner soon... chicken fajitas.. mmmm :drool5:

DAMN YOU LOOK GOOD :sifone: Have you done your measurements too?? It's amazing how we can be the exact same weight, with a very similar body type, and yet I've got at least 2 inches on you. You rock!! :coolgleamA:
 
AHHHHHH!!!

All this talk of switching journals and leaving us hanging. Don't be scaring us! :argue:

I must agree with the masses. You looked good in the before ... but now you're smokin'!!

Thanks :) I haven't done measurements yet this week, but I'm sure there hasn't been a drastic change since the last time I checked. I'm going to do measurements soon though!

Thanks! :blush5: I honestly thought I was not able to use this site anymore :( But I'm here to stay :D

Well, good morning everyone! I'm feeling a little better today... actually I didn't feel so good when I woke up, but I feel GOOD since I worked out :) This morning I ran 1 mile (started running @ 6.0 mph and worked up to 7.0) then I did 15 minutes on the elliptical with resistance and incline, and 15 minutes on the bike. I did arms and abs and now I just made myself a protein shake for breakfast and it was quite delicious :D

I'm doing great this week already. I wasn't really snacking at all yesterday (mostly because I took the worlds longest nap!) and I did good with my water intake. So I'm feeling pretty good that I can finish this week out strong and I'm ready to see 139 any day now!!!

Gotta get ready for class... check ya guys later!

Hey Sarah! Awesome that your cold doesn't have you bed ridden - way to push through it! good work getting up to 7mph - that is impressive! Your progress pics are awesome! I can't believe it has only been 2 months! You can see some major changes! I'm so excited for you to see 139 - I really don't think I will reach my goal by tomorrow - too many snacks this weekend:smash: If I don't think it's looking good on my scale at home tomorrow morning I might wait until Friday to go to WW and really try my best to reach my goal by then. Have a great day and don't forget your water!
 
Wow! Your journal really is an inspiration. Congratulations on your progress, you look freaking amazing!!
I've never been able to run so I totally admire you for that, after a minute or so I'm dead but I'm hoping I'll be able to get better at it with time.
Have a great day :) bye

Thanks Lisa! :) Did you take pictures of yourself like mine before you started working out and all that? Gosh... I'm so glad I did because now I can really SEE what I couldn't before!! Looking at my new progress picture has also helped me realize that I'm doing good, regardless of the numbers on the scale!! I hope your weigh in goes good (tomorrow or Friday, whichever you go to) and I'm thinkin' you can pull off 149 by Sunday FOR SURE! :D

Thank you! I still have a long way to go though... but I'm ready for it :) Running for me was always a terrible and dreaded experience. Having asthma always made it hard, but I found out that since I started running, it hasn't been as bad :) And I don't look at it as "having" to do it to work out anymore... I "want" to do it because I enjoy it! It's amazing, the physical progress you can make from running!

Okay guys... I just went grocery shopping and gave in to buying a Pepperidge Farm 3 layer lemon cake... and I ate a big piece of it... all 480 calories.... WOW! :ack2: I think it's safe to say that I was in DESPERATE NEED of something sugary and sweet and most of all BAD FOR ME!!! I should not have bought that cake but grrrr I DID! :willy_nilly:

Oh well. Shit happens. I know how many calories I have left for the day and can still manage a healthy dinner to fit them in. I'm just gonna have to work a little harder at the gym in the morning :D

Here is what I had so far today:
Breakfast - Protein shake (1 banana, 2 baby clementines, light banana cream pie yogurt, 1 scoop whey powder, ice)
Snack - Granola bar
Lunch - Hotdog on a bun w/ketchup & mustard, pickle spear, kettle baked chips
Snack - CAKE

For dinner I'm just going to have a turkey sandwich and an apple. I'm also going to tell my roommates to EAT THAT CAKE FOR ME!!!! lol I can't have ANYMORE of it. Dammit why'd I even waste the money? Whatever :rant:

Time to do a lot of homework that I DON'T want to do! :(
