Wow! I've been...not good this semester. I can't do this anymore! I have got to lose this weight, my career depends on it!
This summer I am going home for my summer job, and I am going to focus like I've never focused on losing weight. I have no reason to NOT do it! I don't have the money to go out and eat like I did last summer or THIS SEMESTER! I want to look good by the time school starts next semester and I would like to look AMAZING by the time I have my recital in the Spring of 2010. That would be wonderful. =D

Okay- well that's all I got. I'll post all of my weight, height, etc when I actually start losing again. Until then, I've got to focus, focus, focus on getting through school this semester!

'til next time!

Girls' Night!

So yesterday Kerianne came back into town and we went out to lunch at Chili's. (Don't worry we were both good about what we ate...I got a Chicken Sandwich which was 9 pts and Keri got the Margarita Chicken but LITERALLY only ate half). It was soo funny. The only bad thing that we did enjoy was the Chocolate Brownie thing for dessert....mmmm. After work we went down to Conroe, jammin' to some AWESOME music (Aerosmith ROCKS, I don't care what 'bank guy' says lol). We did some healthy grocery shopping and then each drank 2 glasses of Blush wine, ate leftovers for dinner and watched "The Women". OMG good times!

We went into McDonald's to rent the movie and talk about temptation....mmm those fries smelled AMAZING and I was so hungry but we both stayed strong! lol

So Kerianne is also dieting and I've invited her to join out blog, so WELCOME KERI! lol I'm going to teach you how to cook!

Today I was pretty good. I had a small cup of NON- starbucks coffee for breakfast and then a panini for lunch. Not too bad. Tonight I'm cooking Pepper Steak and Keri's coming over and we may partake in some more wine.

So I got my refund today, so I think I'm going to go purchase a scale and a George Foreman Grille (that thing is AMAZING!) I'm excited about that. I'm really liking this whole cooking thing. It's fun and kind of liberating...AND I'm pretty good at it, WHO KNOW? lol

BTW, Hannah, I love and miss you soo much and can't wait till you come in tomorrow. On Saturday, we're going to see "Bride Wars" and you're butt better be there! lol

Luv ya,

*Kiersten*

Wow, What an Inspiration this is Turning Out to be!!!

I'm so proud of us as well Kiersten!
You know, I'm going to really like this journal thing. It's going to be a great wake up call on those days when I REALLY don't want to do the diet and I realize I have to blog about it!
Yesterday was a good day, but I realized that I have NO money and NO food for this diet! lol...
I talked to my Mom yesterday and I'm going to just have good portion size until I get to Sam and then on the diet I am! I hate that it has to work this way, but when ya don't got it, ya don't got it!

I absolutely cannot wait to go to the gym with someone who will go with me! I HATE going to that big gym by myself, not fun!
I have a feeling this is going to be so inspiration when we share our hard times and our good times in this journal.

Thanks so much Kiersten for wanting to do this with me! I know you have FAR less to lose than me, but I know you'll continue working out with me and maintaining your diet after the weight loss period.

Love you!!
Hannah

A Great First Night

OMG I'm so proud of myself. I cooked myself dinner last night and it was DELICIOUS! It wasn't the most healthy thing but at least it wasn't fast food. The best thing about WW is that b/c I'm a picky eater, I don't necessarily have to watch what I eat, I just have to get better about portion control and working out. Especially since I've been stressed, it's so easy to drown my sorrows in food and then I would overeat and then lay down....yea that is not the best way to lose weight lol. So I went grocery shopping last night and bought myself some good food choices and I'm going to start cooking more often. I forgot that I'm actually a decent cook. Tonight I'm probably going to eat the leftover b/c I have to run down to Conroe. But on Thursday I'm going to make Pepper Steak the way my brother makes it...MMMM so good.

BTW Hannah, I'm so proud of you and of us that we're actually doing this. I can't wait till you get back so we can start working out and looking HOTT!

Have a great day!

Day 1

I'm going to try to make it a point to write in everything that I eat for the day. You don't have to read that part if you don't want to! This is just so that I have someone "watching me" to make sure I don't cheat! =P

Breakfast: NONE (I know, that's bad)
Lunch:
Salad 0
Chicken 0
Cheese 1
Crutons 4
Dinner:
Chicken 0
Cheese 3
Bar 2
Equals: 10

Okay- so today was pretty good! I certainly didn't eat enough carbs, but that happens sometimes! I really felt like I could do it today. It was hard and I REALLY wanted to cheat come dinner and driving by all the yummy grilling restaurants, but I didn't! I know I can do this and come my birthday I'm going to look AMAZING. I hope!
Well, until tomorrow! Good Night everyone!

New Beginnings!

Hello all! It's a brand new year and I'm ready to start looking GOOOOOOD! I've started back on weight watchers, and I can't wait for my girls to come back bc I'm ready to hit the gym!

My goals for the next six months:

1. I currently wear a size 14 and I desperately want to be down to size 12 by May.
2. I want to have a flat tummy by June 22 so I can sport a bikini!!! ( Not that I would I just want to be able to)
3. Along the way I'm going to give my self "mini-goals" with little rewards to keep myself motivated.
4. I also want to go to the gym AT LEAST 3 times a week....my schedule should allow it...and at least once a week with friends.
5. I'm going to eat a home cooked meal at least 90% of the week b/c it's healthier.
6. I don't want to eat fast food more than once a week and during LENT I'm going to give up anything and everything that is STARBUCKS!!!! OH NO! (omg that's going to suck)

I believe it is important to have a support group during all this and that is why Hannah and I have decide to have this blog. We plan to blog our successes and failures to seek support and guidance throughout our journey to being GORGEOUS! lol I can't wait.

I'm going grocery shopping tonight with my points calculator and I'm going to cook me a lovely healthy meal before I watch the SCRUBS season premiere.

I miss you all and I can't wait for everyone to be home!

Love you,

Kiersten
