Well... I have crawled my idiot a** back here. I should have been at my goal by now... if I had simply done what I said I was going to do a year ago. Instead... I've five pounds heavier than my heaviest weight.
But... I have a different mindset now.
I have something to train for: WARRIOR DASH. I am a horrible runner/sprinter... am horrible at crossing obstacles... but... I'm going to do it. I will. I have three months to train and prepare.
I also am one week into being a vegetarian. I kind of feel sorry for my mom... she knows how to cook pretty much just meat products. Vegetables and fruits don't... cook. They're for salads and sides mostly to her. So... I'm gonna be on the search for good recipes and recipe books. (good thing there's a vegetarian forum on here!).
I also am resolving to be in a size 10 jean/dress size by April... well... more like whenever my school's Fine Art's Banquet or Prom are. That's what I want to look good for. And if I do... I will be buying myself a designer dress for it. Like... one of those dresses that retails new for over $1000...
(used/discounted of course... I'm not rich...).
So yeah. First though... 199. I need to hit onederland. But not simply to say I got there... but because I need to be healthy. Less sugar and sweets (considering cutting out diet soda too... and going to club soda/sparkly water and concentrate juice for my snack drink), and more water and real food. Less processed, more fresh.
I am loving the way my body is feeling so far... and all I've done is drink a bit more water and cut out the meat.
So... yeah. I feel ashamed that I haven't been on here, holding myself accountable. Been meaning to do this for the past two months... was too ashamed to do it.
Take this as you will. I'm going back to a job that requires me to lift animals, dog/cat food, and be on my feet most of the time... as well as wanting to go horseback riding more regularly (already investigating lessons), and my mom is wanting us to get a YMCA membership... so I'm looking into the Zumba stuff. I love to dance... it'd be nice to learn HOW... while giving my body a workout.
So yeah... maybe even some rock climbing in the mix. I loved rock climbing... I want to be able to do it again.
