Weight Loss Update - August 2014

 
 
So I'm back on Weight Watchers. MFP just doesn't work for me. Weight Watchers does the trick. Since rejoining on the 9th of August (I think...) I've lost about 10 lbs. I say about because my weight tends to fluctuate between 5-10 lbs daily...I'm not joking. I hate it. Anyway, I've also started a waling regime with some co-workers and because of that I can tell that I'm losing inches. I don't keep track of inch measurement...maybe I should start...but there have been several indications.
 
1. My watch is loose. It used to pinch my wrist now I have a little sliding action.
2. My maxi dresses/skirts are longer, I'm assuming it's because there's less of my wideness taking up the material.
3. My shirts hang more loosely. I wish my pants would be looser but hey, I'll take what I can get.
4. A few people have told me my face appears slimmer. IDK. I can kind of tell but not really.
5. My shoes are bigger on my feet.
 
Here are my goals for September (I know it's early but I need the next week or so to get my mind right):
 
1. Lose 20 lbs.
2. Work out at LEAST 3 times a week (5 per week is the ultimate goal)
3. No sodas. I was doing really well on this but the afterschool snack cart is back at work and things are just all messed up.
4. Walk 75 miles (I see a lot of people doing the 100 mile challenge but I don't want to set myself up for failure)
5. Work my way up to 10 continuous rotations with my fitness hoop (I'm gonna post about this soon).

Hey y'all!    I was finally able to get my grubby little paws on more Michaels Craft Store Grab Boxes. It was completely by accident, I simply wanted to buy a t-shirt to complete an order and I saw 4 boxes so I purchased 4 boxes. Here's what was inside: Most of this will get used. I was most excited about the floral department stuff and the lights. The total for my boxes is over $400. Anything I can't use, I'll be donating to my job! 

BOOK REVIEW: "I Almost Forgot About You" by Terry McMillan

While I'm not a Terry McMillan fanatic, I do usually enjoy her books. This title was hard to read and confusing from the very beginning. I understand that Georgia is on a mission to find herself but the books is long and gets boring often. Plus there are way too many characters to keep up with. I will still pick up a Terry McMillan book in the future but I do not recommend this book.

No Losers Please

Just recently, I dated a loser, I can tell you more about that in a later blog post I have planned. But anyway - one day I was chilling with said loser and he needed me to help him set up his 'new' touch screen phone. While I was trying to log into his Facebook page he received a text from another girl that read "Hey sweaty - what's up" It's funny because I wasn't mad and because I am pretty sure that this wasn't a case of auto-correct madness. This heifer really spelled SWEETIE wrong and I saw the previous texts to prove this. Unless there was some sort of inside joke that made it okay for her to affectionately call him sweaty, the fact that he was either a. oblivious to the fact that she wasn't spelling her chosen term of endearment correctly or b. He wasn't offended about being called sweaty. Either way - I realized he was an idiot. Have you ever been involved in a situation or with a person and had an awakening that made you realize...
