mmmm... chocolate....*smacks head*

No! bad thoughts jacqui, bad thoughts! lol. I need to take control RIGHT NOW. I just got on the scale, just to see the damage and...

*cries*

197...:eek2: I can't believe it. Which is why I'm taking charge right now. A lot I think is water weight, because i've been eating pickles up the wazu, so i'm going to stop that. And I'm going to be much more in control on my portions too. The bad eating habits END NOW. This I swear. And I'll report back tomorrow, and you'll all see that I did a good job.
 
Good, you're taking charge Xorie. I've had that happen, but it's good that you realize you're going to make that number go way down again. If you work hard, and you can, you'll do this.
 
Well, I just finished two of the 5 units that I had to do for WA St. History. Only 3 more to go, and they're pretty easy to do. Finals start tomorrow, and I get Chemistry and English. The english is easy, but the chem is going to be a bit of a doozie. :D Wish me luck! If I ace this, I can get an A or A- in chem, which is much better than my current B-...:D
 
Ha! I was good this morning! only a bowl of cereal with skim milk!

chem final is today! cross your fingers!


oh, and FOUR MORE DAYS!!!! HURRAY!!!!
 
Well, i'm done with the chem final. I think I did well, and got at least a B on it. Which is good. I know I missed 3 because they were problems where I totally had a major brain fart and couldn't for the life of me, figure out how to get the equation so that I could find the number I was looking for. It frustrated me to no end, but oh well, it's over now.

Lunch... I don't know, probably a sandwich. either a pb&j, or a turkey one. but we'll see. Not much though, i'm keeping in control today, that's a fact.

And it's sunny. I love nice days. the horses are happy, so i'm happy. :D But I'll be spending most of my time packing up the barn today...:( makes me sad... I really hope that they find a place near here, because if they don't, I won't be able to go anymore.
 
WE HAVE A PLACE TO GO!!!!

*does happy dance*

It's 17 and a quater acres, with a 8 stall stable, outbuildings, trails, 3 pastures, a huge arena, and a loungeing areana. I'm so happy.

Oh, and i'm back on track. I'm down from 197.5 to 193.6. Much better than before. :D And school's almost out. I only have 2 more assingments to do, and the last final is today.

Breakfast: 1 peach yougurt.

Oh, and it's official. I'm done with my last final, and with my online course. AKA, I'm FREEEEE!!!!!

sorry, i'm very excited about this, as most of my friends have been out of school for a few days.

I'm going to the horses again today, that's 4 out of 5 days this week! :D makes me happy. And my horseback riding lessons start up in 2 weeks for my senior project and just...*sighs blissfully* gerneral happieness. :jump:
 
Xorie that's absolutely wonderful! I'm so happy for you and the horses of course, and also that you're finally out of school...ABOUT TIME! :)
 
Breakfast: 1.5 bowls of cereal.... I poured a full second one... but stopped when I realized what I was doing halfway through...thank god

Lunch: turkey sandwich

snack:100 cal yogurt

Dinner: 1 cheese and turkey quesadilla

snack: 100 cal yogurt

And i mowed the lawn, and didn't use the power wheel-y thingy that pulls the mower forward (i can't remember what it's actually called at the moment.
 
Breakfast: maccaroni and cheese...not the healthiest by far, but oh so yummy. i can't remember the last time I had maccaroni...:D

Something small and healthy to offset the maccaroni will be for lunch.
 
Oh god oh god... I was extra bad today...


so... that means I have to be extra good tomorrow. Last day of school, and then going to the horses. *sigh* i do need to figure out why i have these breakdowns in mental control. It's seriously starting to piss me off...

We all have issues with that. I know how you feel...pissed off! haha if you figure it out my friend, let me know please! Until then, get back to it, and you'll be alright :hug2:
 
ugh... if i ever see another blue feeding bucket that needs to be cleaned... I might just go insane!

Yesterday, a man came and donated a bunch of stuff... and there were 139 buckets that came with the rest of the stuff...

139...

That's a hell of a lot of buckets, so today, after cleaning 6 stalls, raking the aisle ways, doing shavings, and feed, I sorted the buckets, and then cleaned them...that's a lot of cleaning...I'm so pooped. And then, when I was done I kept getting dizzy and couldn't explain it, until that is, i realized that it was 7:00, and I hadn't eaten since 7 that morning!whoops! so I ate a couple of the carrots that we use for the horses, and drank more water, and had a roll or two, and was fine. I'm home now, and i'm eating a rather meaty turkey sandwich, and it's good.

But the good news is, I did all that, feel satisfied that i'm tired from working so hard, and estatic because I finally got a tour of the new place! It's going to be so good for us!
 
Hi, I'm brand new here and loving what I'm reading but don't really know how to navigate the site. Any suggestions on the best way to learn? I've got 150 lbs. to lose, thought I was going to give up and changed my mind. I don't want to die.

Hello out there.....
 
I'm so glad you found a new place. I can't imagine what a pain it must be to move all that but obviously is a passion for you.. to go all day & not realize you haven't eaten.. cant remember the last time I did that!

Congratulations.. on it all!

Very cool stuff.

Welcome to the site!

The first thing I'd tell you to do is to introduce yourself in the newcomers thread. Then, I'd say create a diary. it's the best place to rant and rave when you're having a bad day, or to track your food intake, or to just talk about life. This site is amazing with the amount of support that's out there to be had, and I think that like me, having the support of so many people is the big difference maker when losing the weight.

Welcome again!
 
That is WONDERFUL news Xorie! Congrats, also great job on working yourself to the bone today :) Get some rest!

Oh believe me, I will. Today was my first official day of summer.... and it ends tomorrow. I start a summer school class tomorrow. It's called "Senior Seminar" and it's for the senior project. BUT, even though I have to do that, it'll be ok, cause i'm learning how to ride english, so I'm cheating. Having fun, but doing school work at the same time! :D Hope you're having a good week so far!
