wow, its been way too long since ive updated. ive missed reading all your blogs so much! i need to get back in here so i can stay on track with everything better. sadly, i guess this is what it takes haha. i havent really made any progress since my last update and that was almost 4 months ago! so yeah, i obviously didnt make my goal for my florida trip although i did have a lot of fun. on my very last full day there i got a really bad sunburn. ok let me rephrase...worst sunburn of my life haha. i got sun poisoning and i was sick for weeks from it. my legs are scared. thank god its really light and i think its still fading. the same day i got back, my boyfriend came to "visit" from his place in vermont and 7 weeks later, hes still here haha. hes finally moving here. 2 weekends ago him and me went up to vermont to get a bunch of his stuff to bring here. were both still in my parents house right now actually. he got a job about 1 hr and 15 min north of here and is looking for an apartment up there and im sure ill move up there soon haha. but ever since hes been here i feel like ive been eating nothing but fast food and junk everyday. i havent been keeping track of my intake. i havent been working out. i feel terrible about it. amazingly, i havent been gaining weight. ive stayed about the same. ill weigh myself tomorrow and go from there. yeah, i havent been gaining weight but ive definitely been feeling super sluggish and bloated from all the junk. summer is here and my body is so far from ready! =( im pretty determined to get back on track though. especially with my boyfriend here and him seeing me a lot more. he always tells me he loves how i look and i dont need to change but obviously we dont see the same thing. sometimes i feel like my self consciousness is ruining our relationship because he gets really annoyed by it and i dont blame him. i guess thats just more motivation for me to start getting serious again about losing weight.
well anyways, i didnt get a whole lot of sleep last night so i need to get to bed. but its definitely good to be back and im looking forward to catching up with everyone! have a good night everyone!

update
it's been a few days since i've updated. last friday for my weigh in i was supposed to be 130 and i was 131. not a huge deal. i wanna be 127 this friday and i'm 129 right now. it's going a little slower than i want it to but at least it's progress. i've been lazy about working out tho. kinda. sunday i wore heels that hurt my feet really bad and i wore them for 8 hrs of work and then i went to get a few things at wal mart afterwards and by the time i got home i could literally hardly walk. my right foot has been screwed up since then. it still hurts like fuck to walk on. i'm really pissed about it cuz i haven't ran at all this week. there's no way i could. well this afternoon i'm going over to babysit until friday night because their parents are going out of town. hopefully tomorrow and friday i can come home and run while they're at school. it's slowly getting better. hopefully it'll be fine tomorrow. hopefully i can keep myself from binging the whole time i'm there. i'm taking a bunch of my own food along so i have low calorie stuff to fill up on. my goal is to stay there as much as possible during the days and not come home. if i'm there i'm allowed to be lazy and do nothing but drink coffee all day haha. i need to be 127 by friday...

bored at work
wish tonight was going faster. my mom just brought me coffee from the coffee shop in town. yay. instant better mood haha. i haven't really been keeping track of my calories today. unfortunately. altho i haven't had anything terrible i guess. no real meals. when i was babysitting i had to frost a cake and i tasted the frosting haha. oops. and the kids had subs from subway and dorritos. i didn't get anything from subway but i had a few dorritos. not a lot tho. i can't even remember if i had anything else or not. i dont think so. i had quite a bit of orange juice tho. ugh. they always have really high calorie orange juice at their house and i always drink a ton. i get the trop50 stuff for myself at my house.
i got paid today. that means i gotta go grocery shopping soon. i live with my parents but i buy most of my own groceries. my mom refuses to pay for most of the things i get because she says it's too expensive. i dont really care. i don't think she should have to pay for my groceries considering i'm 21 and live there rent free haha. but it annoys me that i'm the only one in my family who eats even relatively healthy. my mom will buy the absolute worst things you can put in your body as long as its cheap. thats all she cares about when she goes grocery shopping.
both my parents are overweight. doesn't surprise me at all. i'd probably be in shock if they weren't lol. my 18 yr old brother eats like a pig but he's insanely skinny. of course. he gets the good genes haha. my 14 year old brother eats like shit too. he's a little pudgy but he's still pretty skinny. he hasn't hit his growth spurt yet so i'm sure when he stretches out a little he'll be insanely skinny too haha. not fair.
anyways, sorry for my rambling lol. i'm just so bored. i'm excited for my weigh in tomorrow. i wanted to work out but i dont think thats an option right now. i babysit 9-3 and work 3-11 again. well of course its an option but unfortunately i'm not a morning person. i wish i could force myself to get up and run at 5. its just hard when i don't usually go to sleep til like 1 at the earliest.
actually what i could do is (assuming the older 2 kids have school) bring the 1 kid to my house for a while and plop her down in front of the TV while i work out and then get ready for work lol. definitely a possibility. well idk else to ramble about so i guess i'll watch a movie on netflix or something haha. i'll update tomorrow...

day 3
7:00am
i'm really happy with how everything is going. didn't binge at all yesterday. haven't binged since saturday night actually. amazing.
i decided i don't really need to post my daily distractions because things come up and i might not be able to get everything done or i might want to change one of the things on my list. i'm not going to punish myself for not finish all 50 things by the end of the week because the whole purpose of the list is to keep me distracted from binging and thats exactly what it did yesterday.

9:15am
another storm coming. the lady whose kids i babysit texted me just as i was leaving and said i don't have to come today because the roads are already getting bad. i'm happy lol. i'm still working on my second cup of coffee though so i'm not gonna run until a little later.

7:30pm
today didn't go exactly as planned. as far as my intake. my parents brought home burger king for lunch for them and my brothers. i told them before that i didn't want anything but they brought home an extra sandwhich anyways. a double cheeseburger. ugh. i was really weak and pretty hungry. i couldn't stop myself =( then my mom made grilled cheese sandwhiches for supper and i couldn't stop myself from that either. the funny thing is i'm lactose intolerant haha. (cheese is the only dairy product i have issues living without) i know there's stuff like lactaid and whatever else but even if i take that i still get super bloated and feel really shitty. fuck me. i won't be laughing soon.
my workout went well though. i did a butt workout on the treadmill and yeah i'd definitely say it kicked my butt haha. i couldn't even finish. i was gonna do a lower body workout after that but yeah. that kinda went out the window when i stepped off the treadmill and could hardly walk lol.
buuuut! i'm ok with everything that happened today because i weighed myself after my workout and it was 130. im soooo excited. considering i was 135.5 less than 5 days ago. no, i dont believe that i lost 5.5 lbs of pure fat in a few days but i also know that it wasn't all water weight because i've been drinking about 70 oz a day so i'm really excited. all i gotta do is keep this up. i wanted to be 130 by friday and since its only tuesday maybe i can get down to 129 or 128 even. if not idc. i'll be so happy with 130. and then work for 127 next week.

just finished my treadmill work out. i feel so good right now. i'm takin a quick water break right now before i do my weights work out so i thought i'd do a quick update.
i think this list idea is gonna be a really good thing for me. i've been busy doing things since i woke up. i haven't had time to even think about food let alone binge. i haven't eaten in about 18.5 hours and im barely hungry. i am a little bit but not enough to bother me. definitely gonna wait til dinner. not sure what we're having. or if mom's even cooking anything. either way i'm gonna try to just have half a can of some kind of soup and then maybe the other half later if i feel like binging tonight.

day 1?
i really hate myself for this and it's super embarrassing but yes, i'm starting over. last week was horrible. i wanted to be 130 by friday and last night i was still 133. ughhh!
i have no idea why i'm upset. i know exactly what my problems are so it's my own damn fault. i literally worked out once. and my biggest issue is my night time binges. half the time when i do those i'm not even hungry. sometimes i am. but usually i'm not. i come home from work and watch tv and everyone know watching tv can cause mindless binging lol.
this week is going to be different. today while i'm at work i'm going to perfect my work out plan and i also remembered something i read a long time ago on another blog or something. every week i'm going to make a list of 50 things that i need to do that week. they can be chores or just anything really to keep me busy like doing my nails or something. these are going to be my distractions for the week. so hopefully when i come home and turn on the tv and i feel like eating, i can find something to do on my list instead. i think i'm going to have a punishment if i don't complete my list. i'm just not sure what it is yet. any suggestions?
i also have another idea. since hot foods like soup and stuff are supposed to expand in your stomach and make you fuller, i wonder if i had a cup of soup every night before i came home from work i'd stop binging afterwards. i can never just come home from work and go straight to bed cuz i always need some time to unwind or else i would and wouldn't have to worry about my late night munchies problem lol. but maybe some soup will keep me full. i'm gonna try it tonight and if it works, i think i'm gonna look up some good recipes for vegetable or cabbage soup and make a huge batch and freeze it so it lasts a while and then do that every night.
well anyways i need to go shower and get ready for work. i'll update later
10:33
yay i get to go home in 27 minutes! not that i'm counting down or anything haha. so i've been drinking water and i'm not hungry at all. i was planning on having my soup right before i go home but my stomach honestly hurts from probably drinking so much water and i really don't want to eat. i dont think i' going to worry about any binging tonight. i'm tired. and i haven't finished my list yet so i'll probably go straight to my room when i get home and finish that and then go to bed.

i feel really good about this plan. i know i've said that before haha. MANY times. but i'm really excited. so today while at work i'm going to figure out a super good work out plan and make my list. i was debating on whether or not i should post my list. i feel like it would be more affective and motivating to me if everyone else saw it and was holding me accountable for it. haha whether anyone reads it or not. but rather than posting the full list every sunday, i think i'll divide it up into what i want to get done each day. so this week it's only going to be 6 days but every week after will be 7. so this week i'll have roughly 8 things to do a day.l: nothing - 0
