Zephyr's Diary

I'm going to be missing until July 9th, 2009! I will be starting a new diary on that day. I want to start fresh, know what I'm doing, and get in the mindset of being in the best shape of my life.

Why July 9th? That's when I meet my personal trainer. That's when things will get real because I will have all the numbers I need and with the information, I can make a reasonable goal.

Hope to see everyone at my new diary on July 9th :) !

I am definitely looking forward to it.

Until then! :auto:

I think your goal is very reasonable and it's good you are going with the 10 pounds first so that it's not overwhelming. Good luck!
 
tropicalgirl - Thanks for dropping by :) I'm glad it's reasonable!

I hate Wednesdays. I hate it more than Mondays. I had an organic chemistry lab from 0830 that goes on for three hours, but today I finished in an hour so that was great. Luckily for me, I didn't spill any acid on myself. I usually do. I don't know what to blame that on - either waking up early/lack of sleep or my chubby, sumo-sized fingers.

I actually ate breakfast today before heading out because I knew I wouldn't have time to eat until one since I have a biology lecture after lab. I ate Hot Pockets (sausage, egg, cheese). There were two in one plastic wrap bag thing so that was a total of 320 calories consumed.

I came back and made fried rice using EVOO instead of butter. It lacked taste, so instead of salt, I used soy sauce. It STILL lacked taste, so I added this spicy korean paste to it, and it turned out to be okay. Holy crap, the onions did some damage to my eyes. It was watering up so bad, I thought I was actually crying a river in my kitchen.

I'm waiting for my organic chemistry lecture at the moment and about an hour after that, I have a three hour long biology lab to go to, which ends at 1920 hours. See why I hate Wednesdays? I have six hours of lab total. It's a long, sad day for me.

I wish studying could make me lose weight :(

anywho, got any questions or whatev, just ask

welcome and such.
 
Hey Mike! Would it be enough to say that the first two pictures I attached were from last week's No Fear Energy tour? That's a big hint ;) That third picture with my boy is from Mayhem Festival last summer. I like me some metal and "hardcore" music! Thanks for the welcome by the way. I'm glad I'm doing this :)

yay for hardcore

im goin to see lamb of god w/ children of bodom, as i lay dying, and some other band on the 28th...kick ass
 
Hot pockets! So nostalgic! I love breakfast pizza too but I haven't seen it at all here, lol. Hope you were (are?) able to get through the long Wednesday ok!
 
Mike: YAY! You're going to have so much fun. Unfortunately, As I Lay Dying couldn't make it so Suicidal Tendencies played in their place instead. Sadness :( Lamb of God was INSANE as always. I love Randy.

Tropical: Hot Pockets are so convenient! I made it through my Wednesday okay, but barely :p

After my biology lab at 1930ish hours, I came home and took a nap and woke up the next day at noon. I slept for more than twelve hours, holy cow. Thank god I don't have classes on Thursdays this quarter. I ate a bowl of the leftover fried rice about two hours ago. I've been craving ice cream all day yesterday, so today I'm going to satisfy that, but with frozen yogurt instead.

I have my workout session today. I can't tell if I'm looking forward to it at all. My nonexistent abs hurt and my arms are nothing but muscle pudding. Can't complain for too long though. All I have to think about is Gina Carano! She's my favorite MMA fighter.

Time to get frozen yogurt!

Mike: A few of my other favorite bands are Comeback Kid, Devil Wears Prada, Bring Me The Horizon, Bad Religion, Sick of it All, Terror, Outbreak, Scars of Tomorrow, War of Ages, The Warriors, etc etc. I guess most of the bands are metalcore since they incorporate both metal and hardcore. Makes sense. What about you? :)

I decided not to get frozen yogurt.

Workout was great. A substitute instructor came in today since the original one couldn't make it for whatever reason. It was a lot of running around, a lot of hopping up and down, punches, kicks, etc. Then I did the dreadful plank for forty seconds, which made me realize that I was extremely out of shape. Back in high school, I was able to hold the plank for much longer than two minutes. I'll get back to that shape one day. Midway through, we (the class) checked our pulses and I got 32. The instructor said between 24 and 28 was great. I guess I'm superb.

I was starving by the time I got home, so I ordered fried rice to go since I was too tired and too hungry to have the patience to cook (aka a higher risk of accidentally chopping my chubby finger off). I like my life to be as simple as possible. Normally I'd eat the whole thing, but I ate half because I didn't want to get back too many calories that I lost from my workout. That would be a waste of time.

I also went to Safeway with my boyfriend and bought bananas, apples, and three bags of bread (bagels, english muffins, regular white bread). I thought about buying whole wheat, but I decided to stick with white for just this time. Next time I'll pick the latter. Fruits for snacks when I get the munchies, bread with jam or bagel with cream cheese ("1/3 less fat") for a quick lunch in between classes. That would prevent me from going to restaurants.

On Wednesday, I had a total of 1,358 calories, which is surprising because I thought I ate way more than that. My water intake was 48 oz, which is six cups. Not bad. Today I had 1496 caloric intake according to the Daily Plate and I burned off about 635 calories. Is that even possible? Hm, I'm not going to stress over it. Water intake is 40 oz so far and I'm still sipping as I type. I've never had to use the bathroom so many times within one hour in my life until yesterday.

Maybe I should purchase some granny diapers.

hey hun, you are so cute!
good luck on your journey. you look fabulous but a little weight doesn't harm anyone. if you need anything I'll be around. xoxo!
 
Amiba: Hey! Thanks :) I read your post early this morning at around six and it was definitely a nice thing to wake up to!

Mike: Ohh don't worry, I have a couple of artists in my iPod I'm ashamed to share with others, HAHA.. It's all good! I wish I had the same amount of discipline you have by the way. Boo!

Breakfast
1 serving of oatmeal

Lunch
Half a friend's sandwich (whole wheat, a slice of ham, lettuce, swiss cheese)
1 banana

Not sure what I'm going to eat for dinner yet. Maybe cereal or something simple like that.

I had organic chemistry lab early this morning and by the end of it, I had a cut on top of my right hand which bled for the next three minutes. Might have gotten it from a broken glass I didn't see laying around. Other than that, it was an okay day. I need to get my exercise in, but my ass hurts like crazy, so I think I'm going to work out tomorrow instead. Still debating. This is a boring update. Maybe I'll have something interesting to say later.

Under the Sea-From the Lil Mermain Soundtrack

Toxic-Britney Spears

MmmBop-Hanson

Its like my shock music when I have strangers riding in my truck or when I pull up to red lights with my windows down.

There are way more, like old funky ass hip hop that nobody remembers haha.
 
pulling for ya

Zephyr- wishing you the best of luck in this adventure. So young but very determined. I wish I had that kind of ambition and discipline when I was 19. Wishing you success!!:sifone:
 
Thanks lookintolose! :)

Mike: HAHA, wow and I thought I had some pretty embarrassing music. Just kidding! I have "Piece of Me" by Britney Spears, "Too Little Too Late" by JoJo, one Chingy song, and too much Eminem. Oh, and my Halo Soundtrack hahahaha! I don't even know why I'm ashamed of them!

Snack
1/2 Fuji Apple (got full, so I'm going to finish the other half later)

My mom's visiting my university today. One area of my school is dedicated to cherry blossoms. My mom loves those and wants to see them, so I guess I could walk around with her and show her the school if she's up for that as well.

My ass still hurts real bad. It would be nice if someone could massage it, HAHA.

More later I guess.

I woke up late. For what? Nothing. I love the weekend.

Last night for dinner, my mom showed me the CORRECT way to make fried rice. It's no wonder mine tasted like nothing! Don't feel like explaining.

My parents are picking me up for dinner at their house in about an hour and forty minutes. I need to hurry up and get to the gym for even a short while. Probably going to hit the treadmill and then the weights.

-Zephyr
 
I ran two miles average ten minutes per mile. I guess I took it slow today since it's the first time working out by myself. Also lifted some weights.

Breakfast
1 banana
1 cup of milk

Shower time.

A lot happened yesterday, things I don't feel like getting into because loose lips sink ships. If the wrong people know, this person could get fired from the job, arrested, and the family would suffer financially. Not to mention, this would be according to the military laws. Right now there's nothing anyone can do about whatever is happening mainly because they would suffer the downfall with the person causing it. Like I said, loose lips sink ships. It's a terrible dilemma and I did get really emotional throughout the day. Some people just get stuck with the wrong crowd.

I went to church yesterday even though I'm an atheist. I couldn't help but get angry at this powerful being we were talking about. How could he just sit on his ass on his heavenly throne watching unfortunate things happen? I left church with hatred and more questions than answers. Very frustrating, it's no wonder I'm an atheist. I just can't bring myself to think positively about this being 24/7 through both good and bad events. It's just not realistic.

I guess it's no surprise that I slipped up last night after I came home (I was "being there" for the people who needed me) and ate two slices of pizza and four cheese bread sticks. I felt a little guilty, but definitely wasn't angry at myself for it at all. I spent a lot of energy on the greater issue yesterday and lost my appetite so I didn't eat much throughout the day.

Breakfast
Rice cake

Lunch
Rice cake
1 cup of milk

Dinner
1 banana
2 servings ramen with 4 lit'l smokies

Total calories for the day: 1,379
