Well today besides being overally exhausted (and yes I slept) I am also happy. Even though I definitely dont feel like it I am about 1.5lbs away from my "goal" on my scale BUT exactly at the same amount I was on my scale the day I went to get weighed at nutrition and was 1 lbs below goal. Soooo hopefully if by wednesday I am at goal or below on my scale, I'll be even lighter on theirs. Its so weird I feel wicked bloated and stuff right now and I have no clue why. Whatever. So plans for the day? Read my book, take a shower, do some laundry, get my presentation together, print my paper, study for political science, make & fix my stupid bed, andd figure out the week. But Im going to Lauren's somewhere around 4 and Im not sure how long I'll be there because we are gonna have dinner and just hang out while Ed goes out and watches football. I'll just do half the stuff before and half after. I really need to get some good sleep tonight though. I swear my cell is being shut off at 9pm. I got a call at 1 from Mark, then again at 4 because he "couldn't sleep...THEN Drew texted me at 7am and woke me up.  Oh well. My dad is probably coming over today because he leaves for Ghana in like a week I think, so yea Im glad Im getting out of the house. But all my favorite shows are on today and tonight and as much as I love Lauren I kinda have a tradition going on soooo hopefully she doesn't mind the tv being on or me leaving at some point. Well lately its been all reruns so maybe it wont be an issue. Sunday is the only day/night I get pleasure out of watching tv, besides from Greys Anatomy & Veronica Mars. haha Okay breakfast timeeee....

Well Im going to try and keep this short because Im freezing my ass off. My mom doesnt believe in turning up the heat and she is going through menopause and having hot flashes so she is never cold. DAMN. Anyway I made it through last night even though I didnt know if I would. Again tonight for like the 4th time as soon as I laid down in bed I got the biggest feeling like I needed to puke. Eventually I ate a piece of toast and a diet coke and it went away. I think taking Metformin without eating carbs is harsh on my stomach. Today I took it with cottage cheese and so far no sickness. Its just when I take it at night that bothers me, I'll try not taking it so late. So yesterday I ate turkey and veggies, one tangerine and like 5 grapes. Doesn't sound like much but I was STUFFED after dinner. Veggies are so filling to me. And when I got on the scale this morning I was 3.5lbs away from goal. Thats amazing seeing as how I was over 10lbs away from it 2 days ago. Im just drinking soooo much water its ridiculous. Water makes me feel good. Well Im reading The Rescue now, gotta study for Political Science, take a nap, and walk on the tredmill. My mini goals for the day. Later I'll tell you how many of those things I did- how much you wanna bet that the nap will be the only one? haha

Well I surprised myself today and got on the tredmill twice. GO ME! For lunch I had eggs and a little more cottage cheese. For dinner we are having steak. I've been reading so much that I haven't been able to pull myself away and study. Im halfway through my book, I have like 200 more pages. I'll definitely finish that tomorrow and then start on True Believer because my grams brought that over today. Well Im gonna get going I might as well get back to reading since there isnt much else to do around here.

I finished reading Nights In Rodanthe and that book was sooo sad. Next Im going to start At First Sight. I have a few others but I have to read that one first. Today I ate a few peices of leftover turkey with mayo- no bread, a tangerine, and sauteed veggies. I drank lots and lots of water and my belly is FULL. Im proud of getting through the day though with all these leftover pies all over the place here. Oh well. Next goal is to get my ass on the tredmill tomorrow at some point. Its still weird being single. Im kind of depressed in a way. Maybe it'd be easier if I had more friends in the area I could hang out with but besides Lauren all my friends live far. Oh well I'll get through it. I dont know what Im going to do all weekend, I almost wish it was over already. I just wanna get this next week of school done and over with because the 4th &6th is reviews for my finals and the 8th I take two...then school is practically over. Okay well I guess Id better take a nap, nothing else to do. Hopefully Dr. Arcand calls me by wednesday.

God loves me, I'm telling youuu. When I got up today (around 1pm haha) I hopped on the scale and Im down over 10lbs since yesterday. So that means that it was the fact that I was super bloated and had a full belly. Sooo if my weight is right today then I only have to lose like 4lbs and that'll be wicked easy because last time I lost 7lbs. I've been taking my medication plus this detoxify stuff that is supposed to cleanse your kidneys, liver, and colon. I figured anything will help. Now I just have to stop being so LAZYYYY. Day 1 is halfway over...

So Dr.Bourne called me last night while I was at L-Dawg's house... so she said that they had the meeting and that Im "unofficially approved." Everyone said really positive things about me and everyone present at the meeting gave me their approval. SO, bad news? There are two things...the reason why its unofficial is because Dr. Shukla wasn't at the meeting so Dr. Arcand wants to touch base with her monday to see what she has to say and then he is going to call me himself. More bad news, they need a weight on me- I have an appointment wednesday with Laura..(Ive gained ten pounds) ughhh so right after thanksgiving I have to bust my asssssssss to lose it. That gives me like 5 whole days, then 1/2...Im just going to eat all boiled eggs and fat free turkey breast- and the new medication Im on helps you lose weight, especially good when your not eating carbs. SO thats my news in a nutshell...it means Im happy happy and then kinda bummed too haha. Now I have to be worried and all for the next week!

Also in the news department. I broke up with Rick. He didn't do anything, we are on good terms and all, but it just wasn't right anymore, we are too different. (This was BEFORE I got my "approval" thanks, I have Lauren as my witness)...so yea we still talked last night and he is being very mature about it all. He is such a sweetheart. He is my best friend. So yea welcome me to the single life, this is going to be hard, I cried last night. But its for the best I guess...

Yea so I stayed up ALL night. First I talked to my friend Mark, then I hung up on my ex boyfriend Nick, then I talked to some other person I forgot who, then I talked to my ex boyfriend Andrew who moved to Vegas in Sept...haven't talked to him since. Yeaaa we stayed on the phone until 10am (pathetic) and then I ate breakfast, fed the dog, then went to see Dr. Bourne for 11. She was really positive and helped me feel better about things- I just wonder if everything will pay off and that people will stick to their word. She emailed Dr. Arcand to make sure he was going to be at the meeting tomorrow- I hopeee he will be because he is pulling hard for me. Im trying not to focus on it too much. Dr. Bourne told me that the meeting is first thing in the morning and I should her office and she will call me back. So I'll know my fate at some point tomorrow. I just need to RELAX and pray. I listened to Carrie Underwood's song Jesus Take the Wheel and it really made me think, and it made me feel better. I just need to give it up to Jesus and stop worrying myself- if its meant to be, it WILL be. Okay well I'll update at some point tomorrow...  God Bless & Goodnight.

Thanksgiving Break!!

Oh man Im exhausted. It was a good weekend though, just really busy. Yesterday me and Rick went to see Happy Feet and he bought me a little baby Mumble, it is sooo cute. He also bought me a bag of these really pretty rocks. That boy is my best friend. We went to Chilli's after the movie and just talked and laughed and had a good time. It was an early night though cuz we were both exhausted so we crashed wicked early, right after the meteor shower. Then we woke up and showered and we were gonna go to the zoo but we just went for a drive, had lunch and then I went home and napped....then I went to Alyssa's party- that little girl is the cutest baby. She dumped her whole piece of cake on her head! But it was her first birthday so she deserved it to be able to play in her cake haha. She got some really nice things and I got to meet like everyone in Lauren's family and a bunch of her friends- they were all so nice, I really enjoyed myself. I love meeting nice people. And also this little girl told me I was pretty so of course being complimented put me in a good mood too! haha Im just happy that Alyssa had a great party. Lauren is a really good cook too, she did tons and I bet she will be sleeping good tonight, she must be exhausted! I was only there for a few hours and I am. But I have a test tomorrow at 8:30am and then a big presentation to do in Human Sexuality at 11:30. I have to stay in school all day and get stuff done. My mom is going back to work tomorrow too, she doesnt want to because she's been out for 5 months and she is having surgery again in 2 weeks so there really is no point in going back for like 6 days and then be out again but oh well thats what workmans comp wants, and they are the boss. Okay okay I need to do some last minute studying and then CRASH. I cant wait to sleep! I hope everyone had a really good weekend! Thanksgiving is coming up!!!

Wow this was a stressful week, schoolwise...but its OVER. Thank God. My grandmother came over with tons of cute dog clothes for Brandie, we keep buying her clothes and she hates them all but we dont stop, poor dog! Then I took a longggg nice hot bubble bath and it was amazing. I read part of my Nicholas Sparks book and just relaxed. Now I just put in my laundry and the rest of the night Im relaxinggg even more. We have a few movies and there is a show on tv that I want to watch. I seriously underestimated my capabilities- I got everything done that I needed to, way ahead of schedule. I cant wait to take off tomorrow- we are going to see Happy Feet and go out to eat. Then sunday its Alyssa's birthday party and one of the things I got her is so cute, I want to keep it myself haha. Okie dokie time for dinner =).

Well I got alot accomplished today. I went shopping, took a test, and got tons of studying done. I even have like 85% of my presentation done already, powerpoint and paper. So that means tomorrow I just have to finish up my presentation and read two more chapters in psych (which I may do some tonight). I think Im going to stay at school tomorrow inbetween my morning and afternoon classes instead of coming home like I usually do- during that time I'll just read my psych stuff so I have less to read when I get home. I also have to register for one more class- and Im also debating on whether or not I should take an intersession class, it goes from jan 2nd to jan 12th and most of them are online, I'd probably take sociology and I think I even have the book already, hopefully. We'll see though. Im just looking forward to this weekend and I really hope Alyssa (and Lauren) like the presents I got her. Nothing special because Im super broke, but I love shopping for babies. Okay well Im gonna get working again on my reading- hope everyone had an awesome day!
