I'm down 20 lbs in 8 months :) 20 more lbs to go and I'm at my ideal weight :D :D :D :D
Oh wait, there's still 20 lbs to go.....oh crap......... :)
Guess I better hit the gym when I get back ;)
I just bought a bodybugg......I figure it's my own sort of Channukah present to myself....so for $190 I feel like it's a good investment. A pricey, yet great investment and it will all pay off in the end when I reach my goal. It felt so amazing to have my whole family tell me that I slimmed down. I'm down 6 lbs since I last saw them....I'm a little worried about losing only 6 lbs in 3 months, as I want to lose at least 2 lbs a week....looks like I gotta say goodbye to stealing olga's cookies ;) oh well....it was fun while it lasted :):):)
I can run a mile without stopping at a comfortable pace :D I've gone to places I never thought possible before 3 months ago and nothing in the world is going to stop me now from me achieving my goals. The next time I come home (Dec 22) I will be 8 lbs lighter. YES, 8 lbs baby. Mark my words.
Ohhhhh yea :)

Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving's got nothing on me :)
I can conquer the stereotype of extreme overeating and weight gain :D
I don't really have much to say, except that I now fit into size 29 jeans....oh yeah! (barely, but they still fit) I haven't been able to do that in YEARS! and when I say years, I'm thinking about 5 yrs....wow
I'm going to beg my parents for a bodybugg for the winter holidays....hopefully it'll work...I shall let you all know on wednesday if they go for it ;)

All you need is love :)
Yeah, haven't posted in a while.
Too many exams :( Speaking of that, I have two tomorrow =/ both chemistry so, life sucks.
Last week, the person I counted on, my trainer at the gym did a very douchebaggy thing. He moved to Florida and didn't tell anyone until the day he left, leaving this other trainer to call all of his appointments and move them over. Douchebaggery to the max. How can someone do such a thing? He even half-assed my workout that day and had no disregard for anyone except his arrogant ass. Today, I decided to try out my "reassignment" I went to a body sculpt class which was ok, and then worked out on my own for 30 mins, getting my cardio in. My new trainer, who I've never met before in my life was this chick with long black hair and I think her eyes are blue? Immediately, no bullshit, headed down to the dreaded room in the catacombs of the gym, the side room next to the weight room. Bosu ball planks, jumping jacks with 8 lb weights, knee ups with 10 lb weights, lunges with a 14 lb core ball. THe best part of this was that I had the pleasure of doing these circuits three times! For someone who I've never met before, had no notes from Chris (the douche), she kicked my ass, and we even had a decent convo. She's a complete 180 from what Chris stood for. He didn't care about anyone but himself. She keeps special notecards on what we've done so she can build from that to see what we can do next and if stuff is getting too easy for me. Chris leaving might quite possibly be the best thing to happen to me. We shall see when December rolls around.
P.S GO REBECCA :)

Love yourself
So last night, Rebecca won immunity and did not go home on the Biggest Loser :) She's one bad ass chick and I can't wait to see her weighing in at 140 and lookin' smokin' hot. She's been my favorite since the beginning and she's really kicking ass on the show. She's, in my opinion, this season's strongest woman by FAR. I see a little bit of myself in her, except for the fact that I never let myself get over 200 lbs haha. The coniving and vindictive bitch, Tracey, finally went home. I've never been so happy to see a contestant on that show go home. She pretty much screwed over every single person on that show and I'm glad that it finally was able to bite her in the butt.
These contestants, their whole lives, had pretty much never loved themselves, and let themselves be consumed by food and depression, leading to food being their source of happiness. I'm glad they're making a change in their lives and becoming happier, healthier and more beautiful human beings.
Someone once told me that they wished there was a "biggest loser" type show for people who needed to lose 20-50 lbs and not a massive amt like 200. At first, I was like, yeah yeah yeah for sure, that would be great! America is getting fatter and fatter. They're predicting by 2015 that 75% of all americans are going to be overweight or obese. That's DISGUSTING! We need a change and we need to start loving ourselves, or we're going to all live horrible, fat and disgusting lives.

stress
Yep, you guessed it!! I am officially stressed out. I just found out that I have CHE 349 (pchem) exam on the 10th, NOT the 17th! I also have Analytical chem that day. Thursday the 12th I have analytical chem and Inorganic chem. Oh, and my english prof decided it would be best to have our presentations that day as well. Is it Thanksgiving yet??!!?! Ahhhhhhhhhh!
I went to the gym today. Didn't quite run a full mile without stopping like I did yesterday. Too much on my mind, but whatever. Anything that relieves the stress is good for me. I've been running at the gym, on the track and on campus. Life has been good to me since I've started living a more active and healthy lifestyle :) Wow, I sound like one of those morbidly obese 400 pound people on the Biggest Loser. Jillian Michaels is a Goddess and I hope one day to look as damn good as she does. She's definitely my idol, for sure.
Tomorrow I get to meet with the physics department to discuss my lab report that I "cheated" on. I'm working out early that day, 10am-1130, showering and then preparing for my meeting with the awful physics department. Anyways, olga's made dinner so I'll catch ya later. I'll probably blog after the Biggest Loser tonight. I hope Rebecca makes it really far. She's my age and I totally know what she's going through. She's soo hot, but it's all hiding under her 240 pounds of fury. When I was really fat (I maxed out at 185 before) my mother used to tell me all the time that I was gorgeous, but the fat was hiding it...and that I was a pretty face with a big body. It's all a journey and we're all on it. Being healthy is a lifestyle change and I'm fully onboard, bringing people along with me for the ride.
Later Kiddos.

Blog
I haven't done this blog thing in ages :) So wow, it's kind of nostalgic to be back on a site like this. I'm on this mainly so I can have a place to vent, talk about random bs and just waste time :)
I'm actually sitting in Inorganic Chem class right now, so we all know how productive I'm really being :) The British professor sucks anyways, hehe.
The next two weeks are really going to be crappy. Analytical Chem exams every lecture until Dec 11, with exception to the tuesday before Thanksgiving! I have Inorganic next thursday and Physical Chem in 2 weeks. Kill me now! I've also gone sober. I refuse to drink anything, mainly because I'm on an amazing journey to self discovery and self improvement. I used to have quite a problem with alcohol. Alcohol is just plain empty calories that makes beautiful people morbidly obese (other factors apply as well) Don't worry my amazing fans, this isn't going to be one of those obsessive "i'm fat and going crazy" blogs, I'm not thattttt nutzo. I need to learn to love myself and the life I live. Am I happy right now? The answer: I wear a smile on my face, inside however, I am screaming. I hate the person I am and who I've become. This semester has been one of self discovery, self image and self improvement. I strive to be a better person and damnit, no one is going to stop me.
I will blog later, hopefully :)
