Victory is mine! January 7, 2010

Filed under: General — neverperfect @ 7:50 am

Okay… so maybe we’re celebrating small victories, but still! So far I’m down 1.6 for the week, which I’m pretty darn proud of. I wish I could move the decimal poitn farther to the right… but I’ll take it ;)

Been a bit of a hectic week. Took kitty to the vet and it turns out she has crystals in her urine (thus her peeing and pooping all over everything) Mom got back from visiting Gma and the fam in Missouri last night. And, I’ve actually been taking the time to cook meals for myself. Novel idea, really. Haven’t made it to the gym at all, but I did eek our 20 or so minutes of stepping and all that on my Bosu (those things are so fun… until the next day) while watchign Biggest Loser.

I also got a new toy yesterday, and I’m stoked. I finally upgraded my phone to a smartphone (take that, old stupidphone!) and this thing is awesome. Now, most people are excited for email (which I haven’t set up) or web (which I hardly know how to use on my phone) or something else all coolish. Me? My calorie counter. With a barcode scanner. No, really. I’m in love. I also have a C25K app for whenever my stupid butt starts it.

So far this week has been pretty easy. Then again, for my weight, I get to eat 1944 calories a day.. which is pretty awesome, except that it’s just another representation of how big I’ve let myself get. I did some measurements the other night (which I need to finish) and.. wow. All bad. But, have to start somewhere, right? Besides, the more i beat myself up over feeling fat, the more likely I am to stay fat. So, for now, I’m going to hold my head high and convince myself that A. my value is not correlated to my weight B. This is only temporary C. I’m going to be hot before this is all over!
