Unfortunately, I'm not doing as well as I like but I'm making progress. I'm stressed from finals and am finding it a little hard to stray away from the junk. I am managing though.

I jumped on the scale this morning and it said 145, but I don't really believe it quite yet. Yesterday was the last day of exams for all theatre majors (all 90 or so of us) so we had a Christmas party and I drank (not a lot! but enough) and I think my weight tends to dip after a night spent drinking because of mild dehydration.

I intend to weigh myself later in the week and see if it goes back up, and if it doesn't well then I guess I'll just be happy I'm wrong for once!

Oh wow, that is very close. Unfortunately...I don't have a shiba inu. I WISH WITH EVERY OUNCE OF ME THAT I DID. But I don't. There was one at this grooming place where I walked to get to the bus every Tuesday from school, though...and we fell in love. We were meant for each other. *sigh* I am hopefully getting a dog (not necessarily a Shiba Inu because I want to get one from the SPCA, so you can't be that choosy) in the summer... EEEE!! I love dogs so much.

I skipped out on the gym today, I was just so tired. I'm also having a problem with being starving hungry for some reason today. I'm eating food that's not bad for me but too bad it still has calories in it. I go to the gym tomorrow for a big workout, i'm hoping hoping hoping the scale will be down. Wish me luck! if it isn't i'll just have to eat less but i'm already around 1300 calories and I'm starving LOL. I usually eat 1500 but i'm just trying to get a little extra off before our trip/wedding over the holidays.

Have you thought about Rescue? Then you can save a dog and get the kind you want!

Well all the stress is starting to catch up with me, I woke up this morning with a sore throat. I definitely don't want to be getting sick now, but unfortunately I was exposed to Bronchitis on the weekend.. and I tend to get it around this time of year. Grr!

Courtnie - you are definitely looking good! Those last few pounds made a HUGE difference in your face!

kierr - eat more, but try things like apples, celery, all of that. Apples in particular fill me up SO much, sprinkle a little cinnamon on it when it's cut up, very yummy, low fat, high-ish fiber, what more can a girl ask for?

-Aimee

Thanks for the tips, Courtnie I forgot to mention this, ever since I started posting on this site and seeing your picture everywhere...That is such a nice picture! When I get a dog, I am going to have pictures of us together too. Haha

i'm doing pretty good i have not slipped at all!! i've been at it since nov. 15 and i have only lost 5lbs!!! this is the slowest that i have ever lost, i usually can lose about 7-9 pounds the first week. but i guess all those times i've been restricting. i'm still happy wit my success!!!

also, if i have been measuring correctly i think i may have lost an inch. i hope to get my mini trampoline this weekend!!

I was down another pound yesterday at the gym. Yay. I still don't know if i'll make my goal but man I am doing my best and if i don't then I'll be close! I pulled out the smallest pair of pants (jeans) I have in my closet and they fit! They are a 14 Juniors so about a 12 misses. i'm pretty excited about that. I almost fit into this size 12 gap dress I bought for when I get smaller too. if it wasn't for my broad shoulders I'd make it now. I think that is sized funky though, I shouldn't be able to fit into a size 12 dress just yet.

I have lost 2 lbs. this week. I am not sure I will reach my goal but I am going to try. I wish everyone good luck and willpower as we attend all these Christmas gatherings.
