So I have been pretty lucky.
I haven't posted since April 11th, and to be perfectly honest...my eating has been horrible.
Although, I'm very lucky considering I've only gained 1.8lbs. Oh man.
So today, I've already had an unhealthy breakfast :Bacon, egg, and cheese on an english muffin.
However, I may go running outside today. My community is a little over a mile around, but with hills and stuff so it works.
Plus, it's a little rainy but perfect weather for my running...not too hot, not too cold.
It's quarter to 9 and I'm listening to Apache by the Sugar Hill Gang..haha. I love that song.
Anyway, not to make this an excuse, but I've been pretty preoccupied the past few weeks.
My grandpa had to have surgery, which included having parts of his spine removed and fusing some vertebrae together.
Also, finals are coming up next wednesday (May 13), so I've been bogged down finishing all of my work for Journalism, which I did.
I'm currently studying for my math final and Spanish test next week. Not to mention working on a presentation with a classmate due next Wednesday as well.
So life has been pretty hectic.
Anyway, I have to go, I have a tanning appointment.
OH, and I learned today that every cup of coffee you drink reduces your risk of skin cancer by 5%.
Explanation as to how, later.

Quick post. 80's night tonight.
Quick post.
Today, I ate breakfast and I'm getting ready to go burn some calories.
I want to work out early today so I can give my body some time to rest then get ready for 80's night tonight.
I made blue berry pancakes for breakfast...ugh they were so good. I only had 2 small ones though so that was about 170 calories. =)..and then I ruined it with two slices of bacon...lol which actually was only about 100 calories.
so...
Breakfast:
Blueberry Pancakes: 170 calories
Bacon: 100 calories
Milk: 65 calories
Lunch:
Leftover pizza: like 400 ugh.
Dinner: TBD
Total so far: 735
Exercise:
Elliptical for 40 minutes (I'm going to try): 515 calories burned
Sit-ups 15 minutes: 172 calories burned
Squats and other leg exercises 20 minutes: 180 calories burned
Weightlifting 15 minutes: 129 calories burned.
Total: 996 calories burned...woohoo!
I'm going to get going so I can get started so I have more time to rest and relax before I need to get ready for 80's night tonight. =)
I probably won't post tomorrow because of the holiday, or if I do, it will be around 7 pm est.
Anyway, just in case I don't post tomorrow, Have a very Happy Easter!

Nutshell.
Paul and I didn't really have a huge argument last night.
But we did have a "discussion". Pretty much because 80's night is tomorrow, and since one of my friends got completely trashed and had to be taken home by like the entire group of us (excluding me), I was left at the table by myself for a good 15 minutes, while Paul stayed behind the dj booth..so I will a little annoyed, and ever since my friend brought up 80's night Paul had been acting..distant.
So it was like, Okay what did I do now?
So I guess my feelings just kept building up, and I needed to get out what I was feeling, and that I felt like it was my fault because Paul didn't want to go, but I did...to hang out with him.
So needless to say, I was crying...and I felt like it was a bigger issue than it was, because my feelings were ultimately hurt that Paul thought that I couldn't hold my liquor and that was why we "had" to leave early...when really it was because I was tired of sitting there by myself...so of course I wanted to leave.
Anyway, on a much brighter note..I ended up losing 5lbs...within 24 hours...I'm not really sure why, but the night before last I did a really big weightlifting workout, so I was probably retaining water in my muscles.
I went from 190 (bad eating day) to 189 yesterday, then dropped to 184 today.
6lbs away from the top of my "normal weight range".
Also, today's plans:
Going to walmart to get a new ink cartridge for the printer.
Going tanning with my friend Heather.
Coming home. Finishing any Homework due for Monday.
Saturday:
Paul has a meeting at 1
80's night tomorrow night.
Sunday:
Easter:
Mass at 11
Dinner at his parents house.
My calories for today:
Breakfast:
Scrambled eggs made with mozzarella cheese
Toast
2 Kiwis
Orange Juice:418 calories.
Lunch:
Greek Salad:
Green Spinach leaves
Grape Tomatoes
Feta cheese (crumbled)
Extra virgin olive oil
Balsalmic Vinegarette
RedWine Vinegarette: 295 calories (Yummy!)
S2:
Dinner: Costco cheese pizza: ugh, its like 400 calories for 1 slice.
Total: 1,113 calories. Not too bad though.
I'll probably work out again, doing the elliptical for 20 minutes, arm exercises, leg exercises, ab exercises.
I'll update later.
Have a happy Good Friday.

Woo. I broke the plateau.
So I don't know if it could be considered a plateau because I think I was working out to maintain my 188 lbs.
Anyway, last night I did the elliptical, did some leg exercises (calves, inner thighs, and outer thighs), did some free weights for my lower arms, upper arms, and the backs of my arms...and I did some ab exercises.
I kicked my ass.
And it paid off! I weighed in at 187.2! Technically, I am only 8 lbs away from the top of my "normal range" woohoo!
So I have been tanning this week..Only 2 times, No big deal.
I just hate being super pale...like the shade of white out..haha.
Also, I'm getting a haircut today. Right now my hair is almost to the middle of my back...and I'm getting it cut off!
I'm getting my hair cut to about shoulder length. And I am eventually going to get highlights.
Just not today, because I'll get charged 80 bucks for my full head of hair, because they cut it AFTER they dye it.
So I beat the system..lol.
Paul is working tonight from 4-7, not too far away from home, so that's exciting.
I'm spending the day with my parents today though.
I'm probably going to work out today too, do another session of ass kicking. =)
Tomorrow too...seeing as how it is supposed to be gorgeous out tomorrow...and I feel more upbeat about working out when it's sunny rather than cold and windy and gross.
So, I'm not really sure about what I'm doing about dinner and whatnot, so I will post the calorie intake later, or tomorrow morning before church.
Although, last night I burned:
15 minutes of ab workout: 75 calories burned
15 minutes of weight lifting: 64 calories burned
15 minutes of leg workouts: 128 calories burned
20 minutes of elliptical: 255 calories burned
Total time: 1 hour and 5 minutes
Total calories burned: 522 calories burned.
Have a great weekend!

Okay.
So I did exactly what I said I was going to do the other night when I posted.
I got up, went to church, came home, worked out..I actually managed to stay on the elliptical for 20 minutes..It was pretty awesome.
Then I did some upper body work..Not quite an hour..but it was a good workout.
Today.
Here is my calorie count:
Breakfast:
Bagel with ICBINB: About 370 calories
S1: Craisins: 100 calorie pack
S2: Prunes: 75 calories
Lunch: Chicken and Mashed potatoes: 427
Dinner: Caesar Salad: 159 calories
Total: 1,131 calories..not too bad.

Total burned: 341...I'll be working my way back up to where I was...lol.
Also, as far as the job at Lowes...I called and the HR woman actually stepped out for the rest of the day. Needless to say, I shall be calling tomorrow morning...just to see if there are still any openings and whatnot.
Anyway, have a happy Monday.

I'm thinking its a good time to start over.
Okay...so I was disgustingly hungry today..and had 3 donuts.
I felt so gross.
I think that since I have been sick and my allergies have kicked up, tomorrow is my last day of medication...so tomorrow is going to be my "do-over".
I am going to get up, go to church, come home, work out for at least an hour, and start over with my eating habits.
I've been kind of slack in that department, and I don't want to ruin all of my hard work.
Anyway. I'm not counting calories today..I'm afraid to.
I want to be healthy again...and I am going to be healthy again.
So...time for some serious ass-kicking. My own.

Ugh...Aunt Flo left me a 1.8lb present.
Yeah. I gained 1.8 lbs.
Figured because I felt like such a "heffer" lol..for eating so much.
Anyway, I will definitely be working that off...and then some...=)
I have a few updates:
Job: Monday I am going to call Lowe's just to let them know I am still, in fact breathing, and really wanting the job.
Cellphone: I know I didn't really bring this up at all..but my phone has been acting...slow. So since Paul and I have different services (I have Sprint, he has T-Mobile) we decided to merge and purchase a Verizon family plan.
If I get the job at Lowes, I told Paul I would pay for the first bill, then we would go from there...so we'll see.
Eating:
I haven't really eaten much today...Not by any means because I gained a pound, but because I haven't been hungry...
I didn't eat breakfast, but had an early lunch.
So:
Breakfast: N/A
Snack 1/Lunch: Chili: 300 calories
Snack 2: Granola Bar: 100 calories
Dinner: TBD
I may be going to a friend's house because Paul is doing a bridal show tonight from 7-11. I will hang out with her until he gets back or whatever, because he has to drop off the equipment there in order to leave anyway.
I also got a lot of cute clothes to go out in. We went to Charlotte Russe in the mall, and I got this really cute tealish colored tank top with a belt, and I got matching shoes.
Also, Heather gave me a couple shirts that she doesn't every wear...One was a green tank top, and the other was a vest from Deb's...which usually I get Larges or XL in Deb's shirts...but the vest was a Medium..and it fits!
How awesome is that?
I was really excited...and I can't wait to lost more weight, the more I will lose the better my clothes with definitely fit. =)
Anyway, off to watch some television before Paul and I have to leave!
Have a great Friday!

I really need a job.
Anyway.

Oh man.
So I have to be perfectly honest with you guys, I feel like I have been a little lax in the exercise department...I've done a lot of normal stuff that requires me to be on my feet and moving around...like serious cleaning...or grocery shopping...the usual stuff.
As far as going on the elliptical..I haven't really done it in a while.
I need to get back on track this week. Spring Break will be over, so I will be getting back into the swing of things.
Also, I went for the "interview" on thursday, it turned out that I ended up doing a second half of an application, and they said I would get a call next week...So I will be waiting for that.
I feel like my break went so fast. It is horrible.
And, to put the icing on the cake to my Spring Break, Aunt Flow decided to pay me a visit last night...so I have all of the first day of the period issues...Bloating..Headache..Cramps...it is horrible.
So I wasn't necessarily calorie counting today because I knew it wasn't going to be pretty.
Tomorrow is a new day..and the start to a new week.
Paul works late tonight. I hate it when he works late..being a DJ..he won't get home tonight until 2 a.m....at least.
He also works tomorrow..it's a bridal show..but still. It's my last day of spring break....Ugh...
Monday I go back to school...which I am seriously hating right now...I always get this way...last spring and this one...it's like an anxious child going through "Senioritis" as we called it in High School...Where time is ticking down until the last week of school...and it's like you wake up for school and you can think of so many things that are so much more important.
Especially when the weather will get nicer...it's bad for me. I dread going to school knowing that I will be stuck in a classroom while people are out and about on 80 degree days.
It sucks.
Anyway, I just wanted to make an update. I also don't plan on touching a scale this week. Not until Aunt Flow leaves.
Have a happy weekend.

Monday I go back to school...which I am seriously hating right now...I always get this way...last spring and this one...it's like an anxious child going through "Senioritis" as we called it in High School...Where time is ticking down until the last week of school...and it's like you wake up for school and you can think of so many things that are so much more important.
Especially when the weather will get nicer...it's bad for me. I dread going to school knowing that I will be stuck in a classroom while people are out and about on 80 degree days.
It sucks.
Anyway, I just wanted to make an update. I also don't plan on touching a scale this week. Not until Aunt Flow leaves.
Have a happy weekend.

Happy Saint Patrick's Day!!
I hope you all remembered to wear green to avoid those who still feel it is necessary to pinch others. Haha.
I know I haven't updated since Friday. Shame on me.
I am still around 188, so I guess that's good.
Paul has been sick, so I have been taking care of him (as he did of me).
Also, I feel like I have been eating like a piggy! I guess the scale held that my eating wasn't AS bad as I thought.
So, this is going to be a pretty busy week for me!
I have so much to fill you guys in on...
Yesterday was pretty uneventful for a monday. I actually spent most of my day cleaning! I was on my feet (or hands and knees scrubbing the bathroom floor) for like 4 hours...It was crazy.
I cleaned the kitchen (took everything off of the counters, bleached them. I wiped the stuff down, I dusted and windexed everything!) Web MD says General Cleaning for 4 hours burns 1,031 calories...How crazy is that?!?
Today was pretty eventful actually. Well, I got up with the intentions of cleaning the upstairs today...but I slept in sooo late.
Paul actually woke me up at like 10:30..and we relaxed all morning.
Around 2 I got ready and went to visit an old teacher that I had in High School. I had her for Health Occupations...It was a vo-tech class that I took for 3 years...she didn't have kids of her own so I was pretty much her adopted daughter...so I went to visit her (since I haven't seen her since the engagement) and show her the rings and my wedding plans so far.
Anyway, we caught up and it was really nice.
After speaking with her for a little over an hour, I went to Walmart to pick up a few things for Paul, and then came back home..where we ate outside on the balcony because it was like 70 degrees outside and it was beautiful!
Also, I have an interview with Lowe's on Thursday at 11! I am so excited...It's only a seasonal job (I would start on April 11th and end July 6th) but it's a start...and they may decide to keep me through the fall..who knows?
So that's my most exciting news...
Tomorrow, Paul and I are going hiking through Dingmans Falls...with a high of 61..woo hoo!!
Anyway, today's numbers:
I actually didn't eat as much...so I had some post-dinner calories..lol...You'll see.
Breakfast:
Bagel with Cream Cheese: 320 calories
Lunch:
I didn't eat lunch...I know..horrible me..but I had a really late breakfast...so I just wasn't all that hungry.
Dinner:
Costco Cheese Pizza: 384 calories
Snack 1:
Tostitio's: 140 calories
Snack 2: (my ugh snack): I had a SMALL portion of left over cheese fries from Outback Steakhouse (my parents went and brought me home cheesefries because I love them!..I had a small portion then left the rest to my brother): 207 calories...not so bad compared to the 2900 that the entire thing is...ugh.
Total: 1051...Not bad at all. =)
Tomorrow, if I don't post..I will probably have:
Breakfast:
Multi-grain Cheerios with 2% milk: 175 calories
Snack 1:
Nutrigrain Bar: 130
Lunch:
PB & J (possibly): 288 calories
Pear: 81
Possibly a Clementine: 35 calories
Snack 2:
Nutrigrain Bar: 130 calories
Dinner:
Garlic and Olive Oil with Vermicelli: 350 calories
Total: 1189..Good Good.
Exercise: Hiking (takes about 4 hours to get through the falls): 2,062 calories burned. Woohoo!
Yoga (45 min): 161 calories burned
Total Burned: 2,223 calories...=)

Now that I have some time to breathe..
I finished my medication this morning for my sickness.
I still feel a little congested, but it is definitely MUCH better than it was.
Anyway...I need to weigh myself.
I was at 188 when I last weighed myself the other day (yesterday maybe)...but I just ate breakfast so that may damper it a little bit.
Actually I am going to go quickly weigh myself anyway...just for the general idea...189..so breakfast probably tripped the scale..lol.
Anyway, I will start watching my calories again today...
Breakfast:
Multi-Grain Cheerios and 1/2 of Milk: 175 calories
Snack 1:
Nutrigrain Bar Blueberry: 130 calories
Lunch:
6" Subway Turkey Sub: 279 calories
Snack 2:
Quaker Tortillaz Chips: 130 calories
Dinner:
Breaded Chicken (Thighs and Legs): 300 calories (estimation)
Corn: 83 calories
Maybe some mixed veggies or green beans: 60 calories at most
Total: 1,157 calories...that's better. =)
Exercise: Since I am still feeling a little worn out..I may do about 10 minutes on the elliptical, maybe 10 more on the bicycle thing...and the rest of the time doing yoga and maybe a little weight lifting..It will really depend on how much my body can handle.
Anyway, on a note that doesn't really touch on being in shape...I think I may have gotten a new job..Which is much needed.
It isn't something big...I put in an application at Lowes hardware store, next to my college. I actually got a call back the next day..but I didn't hear my phone go off at all, so by the time I called back, the lady had left for the day.
But I called today and she doesn't work today, so I left my name and number so that way she knows I did call back and I definitely AM interested in the job.
Hopefully I get a call for an interview tomorrow.
I am actually really excited, because I am now on my Spring Break, and I could possibly be making some money =).
Hopefully this all works out. =)
I better get going though, I have a lot to do today.
Have a great day everyone!

I am feeling much better today.
So after taking the medication (its 1 pill twice a day for 7 days) since Wednesday I am definitely feeling much better. Yesterday was the first day that my throat was not hurting at all..and today is the second.
However, I still have some congestion like it is trying to leave me with a head cold.
I know that I was going to try and work out every day for Lent, but like I had said, if my body is exhausted I will let it rest...
That's what I have been doing..
And my mom told me something very important, she told me that when I am good enough to start working out again, I need to work my way back up to doing the elliptical for 40 minutes and whatnot...so just do the elliptical for 10 then some yoga and whatnot, until I am back where I was.
The plus-side is that I have been watching what I am eating but still eating healthy and losing weight based on that alone.
It's nice. =)
So I am hoping to be back on the bandwagon by wednesday, thursday at the latest. =)
That's it for now.

Wow. I am so sorry I haven't posted!
So here is the scoop on my not posting the past like 3 days.
Tuesday, I had my journalism class..which I believe I posted, actually.
I did the workout I said I was going to do, but I had this weird twinge in my throat.
I kept drinking water thinking that it was just a serious case of cotton-mouth..which I get when Paul turns on the fan while we are working out. (I leave it off...he likes it on..go figure)
So I just kept drinking water to stay hydrated.
I showered, and got myself ready for bed no problem, but I felt so tired by 9 that I passed out by 9:30...which is very unusual for me.
I wake up around 11:30 with some serious chills. It was horrible, I had on flannel pajama pants, Paul's snowboarding thermal socks, 3 shirts on, a hoodie on top of it, and was wrapped up in three blankets...and still couldn't get warm.
So I woke Paul up and told him that I think I needed to make a doctor's appointment for the next day because I felt like I had been hit by a truck and my throat was on fire.
I drank tea, took some motrin with milk (so it wouldn't give me a tummy ache later), and curled back up with Paul (who is like a human heater) and tried to sleep.
The next morning (Wednesday), I wake up still with chills, sore throat, headache...I felt like death..it was horrible.
I got up to go to the bathroom and Paul said fairly bluntly: You look like shit.
Don't you love it when your fi's and dh's are so open with you?
I got back into bed and stayed there 90% of the day...the rest was made up of peeing.
I don't think I have peed so much in my life...granted, I was mainly eating soups and drinking gatorade, water, and tea..but still.
Around 10 I took my temp and it was 100.7...time for Motrin again to bring it down...so I popped in some motrin, talked to my mom, and she wanted to check in on me later.
So, she said not to take any more motrin for the rest of the day so we could see how serious this was.
By 1 I passed out again...woke up around 3:30 sweating...
When my mom came in around 9 that night she cleaned up a little bit (I had tomato soup and a grilled cheese sandwich for dinner...the dog had half the grilled cheese and I ate about 1/4 of the soup), my fever was up to 102.8
Needless to say at 9 a.m yesterday when the Dr's office opened, I called to get an appointment. I made one for 11:15..but didn't get to see the doctor until 12:35pm...yeah, they were THAT busy.
So I go in, and the doctor was asking the typical questions (because I haven't seen him since October of 07...I was sick in October of 08, but he called in the prescription)...and checked my sinues, ears, nose, and throat...which he kinda gave a grossed out face..which is understandable.
He said that it's all in my throat..and I have Strep Throat...which I haven't had in like 5 years...and Yeah, I still have my tonsils...They were going to take them out when I was little, but they were afraid (since I have thin blood) that I could POSSIBLY bleed to death...so that was that.
So he prescribed me Augmentin...which the liquid made me sick as a child, but the pills are easy.
I do feel better. I had a fever last night, but I took my first pill last night...and so far I'm just coughing out the infection...tmi possibly..sorry.
I have to take 1 pill twice a day for a week.
I'm hoping I am okay by Monday...I really need to go back to school...
Anyway, I am feeling a little bit better, my throat is still sore but tolerable.
The past few days I haven't really been calorie counting...I probably won't be today either.
I can't really eat all that much, it's really just been popcicles and other liquids.
So, there is my update...
Also, Irene, I saw that you commented on my last post about my dress...I know the type of design that I want, but I haven't bought any dresses yet, because I still have a year and a half before the wedding, so I don't want to buy a dress that may be too big on me by the time my wedding comes...
I know that it can be taken in, but I would rather wait a little while longer, that way it would be a little more accurate.
Anyway, time to finish my oatmeal and take my medicine...then time to relax.

So, my school was closed today...
I didn't have school today because of the "mega-storm"...We got about 6 inches of snow.
Anyway...I shoveled my drive-way...and our neighbors...so that was a pretty good workout.

Dinner: Cheese Pizza: 350 cal
Total: 1785 cal...
I used that BMI calculator that Irene had sent me on a previous blog, and I calculated that I need 2674.06...so I guess that isn't as bad as I thought...I just feel gross about it.
Anyway, like I said before, I shoveled two driveways today...so that was a workout.
