Wow, all this time you've been acting all gloomy and YOU'VE LOST 20 POUNDS!!!!

I also reached this milestone the other day, come on consistency is key!!!

Yay for Storm!
 
Thank you everyone for the support. One goal down, who knows how many more to go. My next is to lose another 20lbs to get down to an even 200lbs.

I got an extension on my unemployment so money to pay the bills won't be a problem for another 3 or so months at least. So I can get that off my mind. Hopefully I can find work here sometime soon.

I also got a new computer a couple of days ago. My grandfather got one too. Needless to say that is the reason I haven't worked out the last couple of days. I'm either fooling around with my new computer or over at my grandfather's helping him learn how to use his. I've been keeping up with my diet though.
 
Nothing much to report. I still haven't had time to work out since I've been at my grandfather's helping him learn to use his new computer every day. Yesterday I did take time to go to a friend's house for pizza, beer and video games, breaking my diet for a day.

I plan on getting back on track with my workouts tomorrow.
 
Awesome about the money for bills.... and the new computers! Hehe, my boyfriend's gran just got one WITH internet and we are having to go teach her, aaarg!

Hey, use the new pc to look for jobs now! And to polish up your resume (CV)! :p

Good luck for that workout tomorrow!!!
 
Well I got back on the workout wagon like I said I would. I got a new video which is like 10x more fun then the ones I've been using so I think that will help.

I'm still getting depressed over my friends moving on without me since I can't afford to go out with them. :ack2::mad:
 
honestly, the only way you'll overcome this now is to accept it and find some new friends... or to learn to like spending time alone!

Well done on the exercise, cool about the new video! Keep it up!:hurray:
 
I know I need to get new friends. The good friends I have have changed a lot in the last year and their new friends are fucking morons. I just would hate to have to ditch them because I have known them for a long time and they are the closest friends I have. Not to mention that it's really hard for me to make new friends since I'm so shy and have no self confidence. That and it's really hard to meet people when I can only afford to sit around the house.:cuss:
 
Nothing much to report. I'm still helping my grandfather out each day with his new computer, sticking to my diet and working out.

The only new news is that my friend's sister just moved into an apartment so she needs to find a new home for her two year old Alaskan Husky and I've deceided to take him in since we have a nice big yard he can play in and I've been wanting another dog since we had to put our last one to sleep because of hip problems and old age. Now I'll have a companion to keep me company so I won't be so lonely and I'll be able to take him on walks and to the dog park which will hopefully help me meet some new friends.
 
I don't really know where to start. I've been really busy lately. I've been spending most of my time with my new dog. He needs a lot of training. The previous owners, who are awesome people and I love, let him develop some bad habits.

He spends most of the time inside the house with me. Not only because he was attention starved at his old place and loves being around someone who pays attention to him but there's a few things he needs to learn before I let him run around our 10 acres by himself. He sits and lays down on command pretty well but he hardly ever comes to you when you call him if he's found something else to do, which needs to change. He also has TONS of energy that he needs to learn how to focus into something other then jumping and barking.

He also goes crazy when I'm somewhere he can't get to. When I take him outside to go potty I put him on a long leash or on a 50 foot line next to the house. He's perfectly content when he's on those to stay close to me but still roams around a bit. But if he's on the line next to the house and I walk away to go get the mail and he can't be right next to me he flips out and starts barking and jumping. Also I've left him alone here at the house twice so I could run out for 10-15 minutes to go drop something in the mail or pick up more food for him and he scratches at the door and howls.

He needs a bunch of work but each day we are seeing a little progress.
 
He's a 2 year old Alaskan Husky/German Shepard. He's already been trained to go sit at the front door when he needs to go to the bathroom. At least that is one thing I don't have to teach him.
 
I keep meaning to take some pictures of him but I always forget. I'll try tomorrow when he's doing something interesting instead of just laying asleep next to me, lol.
 
Sorry I haven't been around lately. I just haven't felt like being on the computer much lately. Especially since most of my free time is taken up by my dog now. I've not really stuck to my diet or my dvd's but I guess running around with my dog is more exercise then I thought since I've still lost a little weight, just not as fast as I was before.
 
Nothing new to report. Still not really following my diet and only exercising when my dog makes me chase after him outside. =p I do have some pictures for all of you though.

Here are a couple before pictures. I'm second from the right.
 
And here is the latest picture taken tonight with the lead singer of The Material.



For some reason it won't let me upload this picture... so you all get a link :cuss:
