156.6

And you know what I had for dinner last night? A chocolate milkshake and a large french fries. Yeah, that's right. My metabolism is finally kicking in. I'm also waiting until my stomach is crying before I eat, then I really know that I'm hungry and I need the food, not just eating for fun. I did the "eat barely anything" diet for a little while, but honestly, I was just so hungry and tired I couldn't do it. So, I've been eating more, but not as much as before. My stomach has shrunk and if I eat too much, I'll want to vomit. I haven't, but I want to and it reminds me not to eat so much. Damn straight. I'm back in this game. 10 elbees so far. :D

So, after the past couple of weeks of me pigging out, on Wednesday I decided to try what I've dubbed the "Go-Go Dancer Diet". It consists of eating one slice of bread with honey on it as a meal. I can eat salad with light dressing (I gag if I don't put anything on it) and some fruit snacks if I'm simply starving and need something to fill my stomach. I think in the past three days I've had a total of 1200 calories. No joke. I'm really starving and it's cutting down on my energy, but I figure I won't have to do it for very long, seeing my progress going so well. And after I get down to my goal weight, I'll just eat what is necessary to keep me at that weight and nothing more. I'm still exercising the same amount I did (dance classes and horseback riding). I'm really tired because I haven't gotten any energy from my food. I've been a bitch as well because I'm cranky! I can't help it. I'm sick and tired of losing this competition with my body. So I'm pulling out the big guns. I hope this works well.

That's right. I'm doing better. Not really doing anything special with the diet, just eating less. After my dance classes today, I weighed myself again and I was at 161.2. So, haha, I lost some more weight. Let's see how that looks tomorrow. *crosses fingers*

In other news, I hurt my knee last week, so exercise is guarded. I'm just protecting my knee from further injury. I have a doctor's appointment the first week in May, so I may or may not be getting surgery since I've hurt this knee more than a few times before.

I just waxed my legs and it hurt. I hate waxing myself. I gave up because I was running out of wax and, well, it hurt. I've got some patches that I might just tweeze out within the next few days. Next time, my waxer can do them. I don't care how much I pay, it's worth it. I also got this self-tanner/hair reducer all in one lotion extravaganza!! Sorry, thought it was so long that adding "extravaganza" wouldn't matter much. But yes, I have yet to try that. I'm also exfoliating my skin like nutters.

I think that's really all for right about now. kthxbai.

162.4

That's what it said this morn, no joke. I don't know! I'm surprised, really, that I haven't ballooned up to 170. Now, I know this sounds like crap, but since I'm down to my body's natural average weight (you know, the weight at which your body naturally stays, neither gaining nor losing a certain amount of poundage), it's SO FREAKING DIFFICULT for my body to lose the extra 17 ellbees. I just want to look good. Super really good. Ugh.

Anyway, today I walked around the block this morning. Didn't go to my dance classes because my speech class was cancelled and then just decided I wasn't going to drive back down to City College. After that, I rode my horse for a little bit. She finally did a slide (it's hard to explain, better if you see it, google "reining slide" - it's pretty much just that the horse stops very quickly, plants their back feet and tucks their butt so that the back feet "slide" on the ground a few feet). My mom told me to get off of her because she did exactly what I wanted her to and she should know that by me not doing anything after that. I love that horse. She's really going to be great.

Everything else is going pretty great. Oh, the office that we moved into isn't finished. It's a piece of work and it's making me all stressed out. There's no carpet in the waiting room, stuff's in boxes, ceiling tiles still aren't all in yet, etc etc etc. It's insane. And this new place is 2.5 miles farther than where the old office was. Yay for gas usage. I'm getting a frickin' hybrid. Screw this gas shit. Lol.

I think that's about all for now. I'm tired. :)

Yesterday: 162.6

I think it's funny that I'm not dieting right now, but I'm still maintaining a pretty good weight. I know it could be better, but I'm not back up to my old weight! Yeah? Okay, I know, I'm slacking.

Yesterday was my best friend's wedding reception. She got married last April (they eloped). He's in the Air Force so it took them a while to come back home and do the reception. It was a blast.

I'm going on another trail ride today. I need to take a shower and stuff and get my butt out to the barn. So there!

I'm not weighing myself this week.

It wouldn't be fair. My dance teacher cancelled all of our dance classes this week. I think someone died or is very ill. I don't know though. So... I don't know what I'm going to do. I guess some pilates or something. I did brush off the DVD this past weekend. I feel so lost without my dancing, though!

Um... I'm going to a "concert" this Friday. My friend's band is playing and I'm hoping it'll be mucho mucho fun. Cause I need some fun this week.

I feel like SlimFasting myself into oblivion.

161.2

Yeah, I know. But I must say, I've been BAD this weekend, and I've only hopped up two tenths of a pound this whole weekend. So I don't feel so bad. Today is back to the exercise. I should be looking good again soon.

All I have time for today. Be back soon!
