Kristi's Journal

hi there! i just popped in your diary for the first time, and you seem like a really cool chick! :D

I got my belly button peirced when i was 17 (don't know how old you are), and i still love it (i'm 24)! congrats on mom giving you the ok! :)
 
Yeah Im 17, and I never thought my mom would let me do it before 18! But she is, and I love her! Did it hurt? I dont want it to.

The whole belly button thing is kind of a treat to myself. I told myself that when I lsot a lot of weight I would get it done because I'd have a hott bod ya know? So I explained this to my mom and after extensive research behind the piercing parlor, she finally agreed to it!

Oh yeah! Im not a dangly person quite yet because for the first 3 months or something you have to have really simple things to keep it light. I like some dangly things though. What color should I get? Im debating between pink, clear, and aqua????

Well, I have to go into the doctor's tomorrow because I have this red bump on my side and my mom's flipping out about it. Apparently, the red bump has everything to do with why I shouldn't get my belly button pierced. My mom seriously makes excuses for everything, and it makes me so mad. I have been putting neosporin on it and it's going away, but she insists that I go in. Ergh...

I don't know when I am going to be able to work out today because I have lunch with mom and grandma, which will take like 3 hours because grandma is the slowest thing on earth, and then I have a training class until 9. I hope I can squeeze something in between lunch and training.
 
Today's workout sucked...

Im at 132. Boooo. Im not eating until dinner, and I am having a very small meal. I just want to get to tomorrow!!
 
Im not sure that the place I am going has that, but I'll definitely check it out. Today, I went to the gym and did an intense ab workout, but when I got on the elipticals, I was totally unmotivated and just stopped after 2 minutes. Im at 132 tonight, so I dunno...at least I didnt gain weight.

Tomorrow is a big day! Im going in to get my bump looked at, so hopefully all goes well with that. Then my belly button! Im seriously so excited about it.
 
Good luck with the piercing. I had my navel pierced and it didn't hurt at all while it was happening, but you must take good care of it afterwards for a while so it can heal from the inside out. I did hurt it by running and jumping onto my stomach on the bed once and I almost cried it hurt so bad (a few days after it was done)

I used a multicolored titanium hoop with my piercing and after having it several years, I purchased a titanium barbell to put in and every time I stuck the barbell in the piercing became infected. I finally decided to just leave in my plain hoop, which I absolutely adored. I still have the hoop, but it's no longer in the navel. I took it out when I got fat and decided I would re-pierce once I lose some weight.

I hope you enjoy your piercing, but again, make sure to keep the area clean and give it time to heal before playing with it too much.. and follow the instructions they pros give.
 
Im definitely going to take good care of it. I got my ears pierced when I was in 5th grade, and they got SO infected. They were so bad that the back of it actually went inside of my ear, and now it's trapped inside of my earlobe. Im planning on getting it removed, but it's definitely taught me a lesson about caring for piercings. I got my cartlidge done last year about this time, and I have had no problems, so I hope I can say the same for my belly button.

Im definitely not going to workout today. I have a feeling that would hurt a lot.

Doctor's went well, and the bump is some kind of cyst. It's gross really, but nothing harmful. And the medicine that my doctor put me on will apparently help me fight infections with the belly button ring, as well. I had to get a menangitis shot today though, and it HURT! I hate shots, piercings I can do, but shots kill me.
 
So I got it pierced, and it looks SO cute. I got a light pink jewel, and I love it. It kinda hurt more than I was expecting, but definitely nothing I can't handle!
 
Oh booooy...

I have barely worked out this week, and now I can't because it hurts when I run. AHHH!! I'm really just trying to maintain 132 by eating halfway decently. I think I may go on a walk because it is pretty nice outside.
 
I cannot sleep...

I had Saturday all planned out, ready for my boyfriend's return from Florida. My mom is even going to pick my brother up from college on Saturday, so we would have the whole house to ourselves. He just called me and said that his dad told him they are staying another day, and that Eric has no say in the decision. I know it's stupid, but this whole week I have been like Saturday is the day, and I was so excited today because I knew that tomorrow would be the last day, and now it's not and that sucks. I seriously miss him so much, and even the it's just one stupid day, he might as well have just told me that he wouldn't ever be coming home. That's how much my heart sank.

I would go tell my mom, but I know she'll just tell me not to ruin his fun, and blah blah blah, which will just get me more upset because I have been wonderful this week. Eric hasn't called me back once when he has said he would, he's called me 3 times at 3 am, and I haven't talked to him for more than 5 minutes at a time, but I haven't yelled at him or gotten upset because I don't want to seem like a crazy girlfriend.

It's almost 5 am and my eyes hurt from crying, and if I go try and sleep I'll just think about it again and get upset, so I am going to watch TV. Usually I like to read when I am upset, but I couldn't even stay focused on that.

i think i would qualify as that crazy girlfriend, because you are being so much nicer than i would be! that would not be cool with me!

i'm sorry you are down. it sucks to be looking forward to something, and then have it delayed. he'll be here soon... maybe he even got you a little something!

and i'm sure he'll love the bb ring!

true story about mine:

i was in cancun when i got it done. (yes, i know... stupid! :) )
anyways, i was drunk when i decided that i needed to make it happen, so i went into a peircing place. the guy sat me down and peirced me with the needle. then, he tried to stick the ring through, but it wouldn't go! the idiot peirced me with the wrong size needle!! he kept trying to shove that ring through... he wouldn't stop as i was screaming out in pain, so i just kicked him off of me! three days later i went to an entirely different place and had it all done in less than 10 minutes!

i had a barbell, which i really liked, but the stupid balls kept coming off! now i have a ring for that reason only. i need to try the barbell again.

ok, enough rambling.

i hope you have a better morning and day today!

:D
 
Thanks daise...that definitely helped to cheer me up. Turns out that he is still coming home on Saturday. So basically I threw a fit for nothing. Oh boy...

That really sucks about your original piercer though. I bet that hurt the next day! I LOVE my barbell. It has two light pink gems, and I seriously look at it every 2 seconds. I really hope my boyfriend likes it and thinks it's sexy. ;)

As for working out. I will begin again on Monday I think. Sunday if Im feeling really motivated.
 
yeep I am not back at 133, which isnt too bad considering I ate like crap over break and worked out one time. When I start back up, it's going to be intense. I am going to work so hard and eat so well. Ideally, I would like to be down to 125 by teh end of April, and I know I can do it if I just work hard all the time.
 
The reality of having to go back to school hit me hard today. I thought I might have died when my alarm went off at 6 this morning. The only good that comes from school is that I can get back on my workout routine and hopefully start losing weight again.

I ate alright today. Only, when I got home from school today, I had 2 biiig bowls of cocoa puffs. Booo! Spring break has made me have very little self-control. :(

I didn't even workout. I did have soccer practice today though, so at least I did something.

Urgh...why is it so hard to get back on track?!

Well I want to post some pictures because I lost my camera for like a year and just found it!
