Day Fourty-One Pescetarian (209 til 30)

“Life can change in an instant. Sometimes it's the result of a chance encounter, or the reading of a letter discovered at the bottom of a jewelry box...And sometimes it happens over office supplies.”
— Maria Wilhelm & Dirk Mathison


Good Morning Followers, LOL! (It just sounded funny to me this morning.) And HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! You are all my special Valentine's. I hope you were shown love in all the forms yesterday and did some giving too. I felt very special that my parents took me out for Valentine's. As my Mother said I am her Valentine. As she is mine! And that my very great friend Laurel, choose me to send her Valentine wishes too this year. Next year I am sending her a present! :)

So Much to catch up on so Lets get started. A little bumbed today, I didn't lose any weight, however it will not let this discourage me. I will work a little harder this week. I went to the gym 5 days last week, and I love it. I did have a bit of an accident and partly dislocated my shoulder but Holley promptly popped it back in and after a few days of resting, it feels so much better. I know having my Mom's massage helped the most though. Got to love the Moms.

So the first week of school has passed, and I after some stressing schedule changes (No way was I taking Anatomy and dissecting a human heart and a cat!) I have a a schedule I love. I will be taking Astronomy, and Political Science on Mon/Wed; and Argumentative Speech and Afro American History on Tue/Thurs. I really Love my teachers so far and I feel like this semester will be great. I have already made some friends, and even exchanged numbers with this really Hot guy, but we will see about that.

As you probably are aware now, its President's Day and I have today and tomorrow off from school. Since I just dropped my parents off so they can head to San Diego for a few days, I have decided to spend the day with my Aunt in Westlake Village. I felt like some quality time with her is just what I needed to feel like I had a little vacation. It pretty much is a vacation, I mean Westlake is so FAR!!! But I am excited to spend some time with her. Still not completely sure what I will be doing tomorrow, but I will let you know.

Well I would like to get some studying in before I head out to Westlake, get the studying done now, so that tonight I can head straight to the gym. Have to keep up the good run of things.

I hope everyone had a safe Love filled weekend

Love you all!

Happy Monday!

Day Thirty Four - Pescetarian (217 Days til 30)


“Today I see beauty everywhere I go, in every face I see, in every single soul...”
— Kevyn Aucoin

Hello Wonderful World. Let me first start by saying I think this is going to be a once a week thing for a bit. Things have been insane lately. Not to mention that today I also started my new semester. But I will come back to that.

Starting with the important stuff, in one month I managed to lose 10 lbs. Yep thats right! The first month was successful and I lost 10 lbs!!! 80 more to go. I finally signed up with LA Fitness, and I have this amazing trainer and I am am working out every chance I get and I love it! I couldn't ask for anything more really! I feel great and thats what matters.

So like I said I started school today and I love my professors! They are prefect! I have to say last night I was so scared about school I could hardly sleep. I kept thinking about what if these classes are so hard I won't be able to manage. But with these teachers I think anything will be possible. I have to see tomorrows teachers but I have a feeling everything will be okay.

Besides school today I got to spent some time with my gorgeous little nephew. I have been so blessed that my siblings had these wonderful children I don't even need to have my own ;P

Well Its late and I have a busy day a head of me tomorrow. And I meant what I said last week if anyone wants to join the Cinderella Pact with me, Let me know!

Happy Monday All!

Day Twenty-Seven - Pescetarian (224 Days til 30)


"We are all Cinderella. No matter what our size. Within each one of us there is a unique beauty and grace. Finding that Beauty, however isn't easy. See, Cinderella had to first recognize that her problem wasn't her evil step mother. Her problem was that it was easier to hide out cleaning the house then it was to go out and find happiness. She needed a Fairy Godmother, to empower her with the self confidence it takes to reject the insecurities brought on by unrealistic overachieving airbrushed anorexic princess images in the media. It took some very large ovaries from Cinderella to make a change. To trade in her scrub brush for a fabulous pair of dancing shoes. But Boy! Was it worth it."

What if you could be your own Fairy Godmother? You could wave a wand and make yourself beautiful, skinny, and put yourself in a pretty dress. Would you do it? Would you make yourself beautiful? Well here is the best news ever, You Are!

I just finished watching this made for TV movie, that renewed some spirit in me. Lifetime had a original film today called the Cinderella Pack. It was the cutest movie I have ever seen. Its about a woman named Nola Devlin (Poppy Montgomery) who, along with her friends, are tired of being overworked and overweight. They band together to create the “Cinderella Pact,” vowing to lose pounds by following the advice of their “fairy godmother,” who is in actuality Devlin herself. When her secret identity is threatened, Devlin is forced to take her own alter ego’s advice.

It made me really think about how I have been feeling lately. I have to be honest, I have been a bit miserable the past couple of days. I have been visiting funky town, and my next train out has been delayed. I have honestly not even worked out since Thursday and I feel miserable about it. I am not sure whats going on. But something is not right. I really want to be my own fairy godmother. So why am I not waving my wand. I feel terrible. I feel alone. This is where I would comfort myself with food, and I can't. So what do I do?

I watch movies. I am just happy that the movie I watched today was this. It made me see that not everything is fixed on the outside if the inside is still broke. One of the characters gets the lap-band and is not very happy even though she lost the weight, cause she had bigger problems. Internal problems, I got them too.

I think the main thing here is that I have to get over my emotional breakdown, and get my ass working out. Otherwise I will be more pissed off, and emo, and fat!

I wish sometimes my life was easy was Cinderella-y. Like Romantic Comedy, however my problem is I am hiding out in the house, blaming my Step Mother. Someone tell me to get over myself! Where are my pack girls? Anyone is the mood for a Cinderella Pack?


Wish me out of my Funkadelic way!

Happy Monday Ya'll!
