Too Exhasuted to Type Lately
So my goodness sakes it has almost been another week. I really do not just want to update every week when I weigh myself and then not touch this thing until the next week. Tomorrow I do get to weight myself, which will make it the fourth successful week that I have done this whole thing and I feel so good. I am not sure if I am going to lose weight tomorrow because my guns are getting pretty big, which weigh a lot, but I still feel awesome. My lifestyle has definitely changed. And while it has only been a month, I can say that because most of the time it takes a few days before I am back to my old habits. The thought of eating McDonald’s or Culvers literally grosses me out. And I know people say it is important to have chocolate or to go all out once in a while, but I really do not have any desire. I have picked so many things up over the last month and just put it down and didn’t think twice about it. I see everything I eat in points now. I know that there is no reason to have a 4 point chocolate bar when I can have carrots for no points or an ice cream that will last longer for two. I really realize how gross my old habits were, and I am so glad I am changing them now and not in a few years from now.
My dad isn’t too fond of the idea of me trying to lose weight, he thinks my body is still growing and it will lose it on its own. Only problem is that he has told me that forever, and now that I am 18, it really is starting to prove to be untrue. I knew it was the entire time. It really was a problem and it was only getting worse. I am watching the Biggest Loser now and they are talking to all of the people that had the same habits I did that just didn’t stop when I did. And now their lives are on the line, and I never want to be in that situation. I want to be with Jacqueline in a few years, in shape, not afraid to go to the lake or the pool, and definitely not afraid that I am going to get heart disease.
I can tell you one thing, working out definitely helps sleep. Last night Jacqueline had to help Eric and call me back, and by the time she called back I was passed out and missed her call. I woke up at 3:00 on top of my phone, and wide awake. It really does feel good going to sleep that early. I guess my body is just exhausted and repairing itself. I lifted weights today and did the elliptical tonight, so really taking advantage of the ‘last chance workout’.
Anyway I am at Jacqueline’s house now and want to get off the computer. Feels good to update now though. I don’t want to say that I will continue to, because I may get too busy again. I work tomorrow night. We have a half day on Thursday. Woohoo. Anyways, peace out.
