SoS 5/29 & 5/30
I forgot to post yesterday, so I did weigh in.
5/29: 201.4 pounds
5/30: 204.0 pounds
Bad eating and a lack of exercise is to blame. I haven’t even exercised since my gym membership at my school gym ended, which was at the very beginning of May. I know I’ll figure all of this put eventually.
Sorry for being a bad fitblr :(
Confession
So, remember how I said I was going to disable my accounts on two unnamed dating sites? Well, I did that on one, but couldn’t figure out how to on the other, and didn’t care enough to do it at the time, so I left it. Well, I took down the pictures and then left it. I didn’t think anyone would message me without pictures, but I just got an email telling me someone did.
And...
OLD HABITS DIE HARD.: 50 DAY BINGE FREE CHALLENGE →
ezpzlemonsqueezy:
Day 1: Why are you doing the 50 day binge free challenge?
Day 2: Post a recent picture of yourself! Don’t body-shame, name two things you like about yourself in this picture.
Day 3: What do you define as a binge?
Day 4: A picture of one snack you had today that you felt was a good portion…
I kinda wanna do this. Just something to remind myself why I shouldn’t...
Grilled salmon salad with avocado and balsamic vinaigrette. And salted tomatoes on the side.
Yummy lunch for a good Memorial Day :)
SoS 5/28
Weight: 202.8
Up about a pound, but it’s okay.
SoS 5/27
Weight: 201.4 pounds
0.2 down from yesterday. Any loss is a good loss.
Today I plan to prep for the upcoming week; both meal planning and actual food. I’m cooking some beans right now and I’ll cook some quinoa later. I’m also going to make some yogurt popsicle things, but I’ll explain that later.
The Summer of Me
The past few months, along with the weight gain, I seem to have forgotten to take care of myself. I became to focused with finishing the semester, figuring out which path I wanted to take, and stressing about my lack of pounds being shed. All of this really did a number on my health.
So I’ve decided that I’m going to focus on me this summer. There is only one person that will stay...
Soooo,
Every time I move, my back seizes up and I have trouble breathing.
I don’t even know what I did, but I do know it hurts. It’s been like this since last night too.
Heating pad: please make it better :(

SoS 05/26
Weight: 201.6 pounds
I don’t know if my scale is broken, or I’m really maintaining this weight. Either way, we’ll find out tomorrow :)
I’ve been slacking on the daily weigh ins as I’ve had quite a few early mornings and it’s completely slipped my mind.
I finally went grocery shopping and have lots of ideas for healthy meals! I have four weeks until I go...

Definitely just got hit on wearing sweat pants and a dog hair covered shirt.
Diets
I just want to give my two cents about diets. And by ‘diet,’ I mean the types of food an individual chooses to eat.
My optimal diet is simple. I feel best when I eat natural foods with little processing. However, there are times when I like to eat chemical filled, processed foods like chips and ice cream. I fully believe in moderation and I allow myself to eat anything my heart...
I wore a dress today guys! The entire day!
I will be doing this a lot more often this summer.
Tumblr:
I love you.
And by tumblr, I mean all the wonderfully people who I interact with. I honestly don’t know where I’d be if I didn’t have the support of so many of you. It’s hard to get support from my family sometimes, but I know you guys will tell me to WTFU and just do it.
Right now I do need a lot of reassurance, and I am truly thankful to have ‘met’ all...
Today was amazing and definitely needed. I feel renewed in a way.
I have lots of posts sitting my drafts folder waiting to be finished, but I keep losing focus. That seems to be a recurring theme in my life right now.
Looking back at old pictures is an awesome way to regain motivation.

SoS 5/21
5/20: 201.6
5/21: 200.4
I ended up eating more than I should have at dinner/after dinner. But I did drink all my water, which hasn’t happened in forever. Baby steps my friends..baby steps.
Time to get out of this rut. Not just weight loss, but life.
I’ve done nothing this past week, which I gave myself since school just ended. But I’m going to start the week off well and I vow to be productive.
I also plan on doing Summer of Scales, since that helped when I did it during the first half of December. I was also going to do 4n4, but I have my own goals planned...

Stretchmarks
We all have them whether we like it or not. Some of us may only have a few, some of us may have a lot.
I happen to fall in the ‘a lot’ category, and I used to be really insecure about them. But I’ve had them since I was about 12, and they are mostly faded now. They are a symbol of what I’ve been through, and I’m happy to have them. There’s no way to get rid of...
Anonymous asked: Have you done tumblrdatinggame(.)com yet?
TMI Tuesday!
I think the majority of the weight I’ve gained recently has gone to my breasts.
And I don’t like it one bit.
One last final tonight at 7:30pm.
Also, a big post is coming :) Maybe tonight, but most likely tomorrow morning.
The world of online dating is extremely small.
An ex ‘thing,’ my high school crush (all four years), my brother’s best friend, and countless people I’ve met through classes.
Why am I doing this again?
Happy Mother’s Day to all the lovely mommas out there :)
“All you need is 20 seconds of insane courage and I promise you something great...”
One day I will get the cajones to chat up the attractive Trader Joe’s employee I see eye-flirting with me every week.
But today was not the day.
This is currently what I have in my fridge:
•a serving of salmon waiting to be cooked
•a bag of spinach
•two bottles of wine
•a bottle of Blue Moon
•and grapefruit flavored sparkling water
Good things I’m hitting up the farmer’s market tomorrow.
Five Things You Probably Didn't Know About Me
1. I love arguing (in a debate sense), especially about current politics.
2. I always notice eyebrows when looking at someone’s face.
3. I’ve known my best friend for ten years, that’s almost half my life.
4. I have a thing for ginger men.
5. I love, love, love spicy food.
Now, I want to know five unknown (until now) things about you :)
Firstly, I apologize for my blog being 95% life shizz, and 5% health/fitness. But this blog is about documenting everything, and right now my life is about being happier.
Secondly, I finally talked to my parents about moving out. I made it clear that I wasn’t asking for permission, but moreso their blessing. I explained I truly wasn’t happy, and I need something different. There...

My desire to leave is growing. I could make this a reality. I’m 21, no one can keep me here. But I’m worried that if I tell my mom I want to leave, she’ll kick me out on the spot and/or not give me a place to stay if I crash and burn. And I do have to face the fact that I may indeed crash and burn in a new state…for a lot of reasons.
I wouldn’t be able to...
NSV
I ate fast food yesterday, but did not say ‘f-it’ to the rest of the day. I wasn’t even hungry after such a big meal anyways. I don’t think this has ever happened :)
Would it be a lapse in proper judgment to up and move to a different state, just because it’s cheaper? And because you need a change. But I’d only have enough to survive a few months if I couldn’t find a job. But a few months may be better than dealing with all of this right now.
California, why are you so dang expensive?
Summer Plans:
•get a job or most likely two.
•save up to buy a better car.
•save up to move the hell out of here.
Three classes are done.
One more actual class tonight.
Then two finals next Tuesday.
I feel so at ease right now.
This is something I’ve refrained from speaking about, since it’s kind of a downer topic. But I’ve noticed a lot of people struggling with similar things lately, so I wanted to address it. It’ll still go under the break, since it is kind of personal, and will probably be kind of long. This is not healthy lifestyle related, but it is my life.[[MORE]]
I wanted to talk about...
Just one of those days
[[MORE]]
where everything happens at once, and you just want to go to sleep and hope tomorrow’s better.
