Monday was the day after Christmas…countdown to the New Year
began! And I’m getting a head start on
the New Year and my goals that I want to work on…I hope. My plan was to start up again with tracking
EVERY DAMN THING I put in my mouth.
Which went “well” on Monday. What
didn’t go well was controlling myself around donuts and cakeballs. Oops.
In response, I just didn’t eat the cranberry sauce (snack) and yogurt
(dinner) I brought, but I was still 100 calories over my regular daily calorie
allowance PLUS my exercise calories.
Ugh. I really need to be leaving
a deficit. So that’s something I
definitely need to work on. And frankly,
had I not eaten that junk, there would have been one.
Of course, there is the good news that I dropped 3.9 pounds
between yesterday and today, so that means I’m holding onto a lot of water
weight. Which sort of makes sense since
my weight fluctuates like it does. Maybe
if I was a little more consistent with my water intake it wouldn’t be such an
issue? Not sure. If anyone knows for sure, let me know,
okay? So, maybe I have yet another 4
pounds of excess water weight on me that I can drop by the end of the
week! Haha. Maybe.
We’ll see. It would be fantastic
to start the new year back in the 150’s, even if just barely. The good thing about weighing myself every
day is that I’m getting desensitized to what I weigh. Like, the number on the scale doesn’t mean as
much to me anymore. Sure, of course, I
want it to say something favorable, but I’m not as obsessed about that number
as I used to be when I first started weighing daily. So that’s one plus to weighing daily.
So far, I’m doing super fantastic about posting on here more
often and with actual life content! (hope I didn’t just jinx myself…haha) I’m not sure what happened or changed, other
than the basically taking almost a complete month off from posting on
here. I guess I just needed a small
blogging vacation. Also, I’m really
getting into the whole vlogging thing.
But, the videos take FOREVER to load to Facebook when I load them
directly from my phone. Maybe I can
transfer them to my computer using the Airdroid app and then load them that
way. Videos seem to load faster on the
computer. Or, even if they don’t, then
at least it won’t be sucking the battery life out of my phone while it
loads. I’ll take wins wherever I can get
them, even if they’re small. I’m hoping to
figure out how to get my YouTube channel up and running and then I can imbed
the videos here for you guys to view.
I forgot to mention something else I bought on Monday while
Christmas clearance shopping. I went to
scrapbook.com and found some a BoBunny 50 page variety pack of 12x12 pocket
pages for Project Life type scrapbooks that were 50% off, so I bought 3
packs. That’ll last me a while! Then I went to amazon.com and ordered an
album that will fit the 12x12 pages that I really liked with sketched camera on
it. Oh yea! On top of that, I bought this anime amazon
Wonder Woman costume that was on sale for like 25% off. Woot!
I’ve been drooling over this costume for a while now, but Spirit
Halloween was out of it in my size. So I
was pretty excited to find it for like 40% less than Spirit Halloween AND in my
size!
Here's the items I bought Monday morning during the after Christmas sales.
Amanda and I exchanged gifts at work today. And, of course, I completely forgot to take
pictures of what I gave her. I should
have at least taken a picture of the collage of selfies on canvas with a neon
paint background that I made for her.
She said she loved it and was going to hang it in her room. YAY! I
LOVE what she made and got for me. She
made me a Labyrinth multi-media collage type thing. I love it.
I’m going to go this weekend and see how much to have a frame made for
it. I’d really like to get a red or
purple frame for it and I do want it to have glass to keep the collaged pieces
from falling off as she said one of them she had to glue back on once
already. The other thing was one of
those My Little Pony mystery boxes and it came with the dark Princess Cadence.
I was already pretty sore from Monday’s self-imposed ass
kicking at the gym. But I don’t
mind. I actually at least partly enjoy
the soreness. Just tells me that I’m
doing something good for me. It’s not
hurt pain, it’s my muscles building themselves back up to their former
glory. It’s also my fat crying and
slowly dying and fading into oblivion.
My friend, “Tank” is going to hook me up with some good gym workouts. He’s a beast and I admire his muscles. Haha.
