Progress

Well as you can see from my little dashboard at the top of this site, since I last posted I have made progress with my weight. I joined myfitness pal. I joined the first time I lost weight and I think this site really helped. I log in what I eat everyday and my exercise. The site predicts how much I will weigh in  weeks if I keep eating and exercising this way. As long as it says I will loose I'm happy.
The site gives you extra calories to eat if you exercise but it's important not to use all of those calories or you probably will not loose. I have been loosing pretty consistently.

I took a picture of me at 145 so once I reach 13 I'm going to take another picture to show my progress. I will do this with 12, and 11 until I reach my goal of 10.

OH MY GOD i's been so long since I've posted. I forgot my password and I forgot which e-mail I used to start this blog. Luckily I have hat down now.

Let's see what has happened since I last posted. I had lost fifteen pounds but don't clap for me because  I regained almost all of it.

I have decided to start exercising again though. My roomie and co worker have started up again,isn't it funny when that happen, people start a fitness plan, stop, then as if on cue everyone decides to start up again.

My co worker Jordan wants to loose 2 pound by the end of October. I told her I was going to make that my new goal. I don't know that I'll do it but this should at least get me back on track.
I have to start keeping track of my exercising and eating again.

One thing I am proud of is I've gone back to school. I'm only taking two classes right now but that's something. One of my classes is a computer class, I hope too take more of these. I want to be able to program.

My other class is an English class. I've decided to start posting short stories here.

I'm going to start a different blog for fashion.

I should hopefully be posting a story this coming Friday.

Santa is a puppy

I spent the holidays with my family. It was not as festive as it should be. My mom is going through a divorce. Her husband who she had been with for about fourteen years decided to leave her near the holidays. The kicker is that he left her for a woman who he met in church.

I've heard of women going to church to meet a husband but I'm pretty sure most of the time it's not someone else's husband. 

Regardless the holidays were pretty normal. We ate dinner together and opened presents.

Some of my cousins were there, one of my cousins is about five so we left cookie's and milk out for Santa. They actually got eaten by my mum's puppy Messy. His mom told him the cookies got eaten by Santa.

David Arquette at WORLDTONE Dance. Unfortunately. He didn't win. I'm the short one on the right. I look horrible in this picture. Just a reminder I need to loose weight.
David really liked our shoes. Most of the guys just go with a plain black pair pair of shoes. David has his own style so he actually like some of the men's shoe's we have that are in different colors he paid for some himself.
