Merry Xmas!!

So yesterday and today was filled with CALORIES! God, I feel full, to say the least. Food was fantastic though. But now I need to really think about what I'm doing! Do I want to be happy and healthy? Or fat and full?

On the up and up, for Christmas I got all sorts of fun things! Like these fabulous shoes, they are Fidji. Made in Portugal, and I'm in love with them. I also got lots of books for teaching, a beautiful hat and one of a kind headband, thank you Etsy! It was a great weekend, and I ate enough food to fill me up for a month! Well, not really.

I have yet to hear from my student teacher advisor or my placement teacher.

Tomorrow I go to Oregon to work for my aunt for a week. I'm not really excited, but it's some $$$!

Merry Christmas!!

Well today was a pretty sad day in my work towards losing weight. I did no activity and ate plenty. On the excuse side, I am sick and feel like crap. I'm hoping tomorrow will more of a success, even on Christmas Eve! It's unlikely.

Today I did go and get my hair colored, again. SO I guess I wasn't that sick. I suppose that excuse is out the window.

I think I'm going to make my 60 minute cardio mix a 45 minute cardio mix, in hopes to make myself feel less discouraged. I hate going to the gym, how do I fix that?!

Oil change tomorrow with my dad, and then Christmas Eve!!! I'm very excited.

My New Blog

I want to start a blog for my friends and family, and whoever else to read. This blog will be about my upcoming journey as a student teacher and, to the chagrin of some friends, my weight loss. Which desperately needs to begin.

I have just finished December 2010 Self Magazine issue, which has Kelly Osbourne on the cover, in a BIKINI! I know I can do it, if she can do it.

I know I have dwelled on this for, well 23 years. But I'm tired of obsessing about how fat I am and doing nothing about it. I'm hoping this blog will give me a little extra encouragement. God knows I need it.

I hate my body, I hate hating my body. I shy away from many activities and adventures because of the way I feel about myself. I want that to stop. I need to make changes in my life so I can start living a happy life, where I'm comfortable in my own skin, and HEALTHY.

In coming posts I will display my weight, workout and eating. ALSO I will start posting about my student teaching, which begins on January 3rd (I think). I know losing weight and student teaching generally have nothing to do with one another, but I want to be a role model to students, in every way possible. A good way to do that is by start being happy with the way I look and feel.

I am exhausted and it's bedtime.

AND I made 3 new mixes for my iPod shuffle, a 30 minute playlist for weights, a 30 minute playlist for yoga or pilates and a 60 minute playlist for cardio!
