Here’s a bit of me rambling, if ur not interested click away…

Eisy has no internet service while she’s doing an upgrade and I have no excuse, I just find it hard to post what I eat… or should I say don’t eat sometimes.

I stepped on the scale and I lost this week, but just not enough. I am angry with myself because that number is never enough. I feel like I’m drowning at times. My life is full of wonderful people who I either push away or they learn to love me. It’s just my personality, and I know that I have alot to work on.

I know that this blog is supposed to be about weight loss but I feel like every part of my life is about that so I speak freely here about my feelings. I step on the scale multiple times a day, I watch thinspo (video thinspiration), I keep a journal of the “pretty popular” people that I would like to be like someday. These goals are rarely attainable, yet I punish myself for not achieving them.

So it’s time to follow a dear friends advice and start making some goals. Here they are…

1. Eat at least 800 calories a day starting 8/13/2009.

2. Move my body at least 30 minutes a day starting 8/13/2009.

3. Be at my healthy weight by April 2nd, 2010 (My 30th Birthday)

4. Be nicer to myself and everyone around me Starting 8/13/2009.

This is just a start these are my goals for now. Number 3 is a big deal to me, I want to be healthy going into my 30’s I know that achieving this goal will be hard, but I can do it.
