the scale...
Sadly, when I stepped on the scale last night, it registered a weight that was more in line with what I saw at the doctor's office.
Wonderfully, it was less.
The conclusion: I have lost four pounds!
The super good news: my body is now in weight loss mode. Usually the hardest part for me is losing those first few pounds, and after that...it comes off pretty fast...as long as I'm good.
For the next few weeks, I will be flawless. I'll be back down to my perfect weight in a month, and after that, no more...I promise. *Crosses fingers*
Around 7-12 more to go, depending on the clothing situation....I figure that somewhere in that range, everything I own will fit just right, maybe even a little bit baggy, which is what I prefer, but I want a little bit of room in the number just because I figure I will gain some muscle, so that's okay...
I don't know how to explain yesterday? Maybe I was so dehydrated I was close to death? Maybe my scale was delusional?
Either way, things are going well.

big ole update
The move went well, and I'm loving my new office...the view is amaaaaaazing, and it's a huge improvement over my last cubicle where there were no windows on the entire floor...now I have one of the best views in the city! I think the winter will find me far happier now that I'll actually be exposed to sunlight! I used to never see it: when I left for work, it was dark, and when I left to go home, it was dark, and of course there were no windows at work...
Furthermore, the cube itself is way nicer. Everything is brand new, and my space is way, way roomier, and all the stuff is just...nice. Now everything is all spread out, and my stuff looks great! I'm not fully moved in yet though because the movers forgot two of my boxes...Gr.
Yesterday I had my first class of the semester: graduate level finance. In general, I'm excited about the course both personally and professionally, because...well..money is important! Unfortunately, the professor is a total tool. He went over a three page syllabus for an hour! He showed us like five places where we could access the syllabus and the slides. He went on and on and on about himself forever; he even did a vanity google search and went on about all the other people with his name. I don't know....it's just that I've been in school forever. We all have. It's grad school. You don't have to tell us that the homework is important. We can read the syllabus ourselves. There is no need to spend an hour on that. We work ALL day (it's an evening program, so all of the students have full time jobs), and I just hate it when some stupid professor wastes our time by talking about himself all day. If he doesn't have enough material to keep us for the whole three hours, HE SHOULD LET US OUT EARLY! Which...he did not. I hate it when profs keep you for three hours on the first day. We haven't read the material...it's just a waste.
I really wish I could graduate sooner...Stupid, stupid job and my inability to take enough spring or summer classes....stupid, stupid program that only offers certain requirements during the half of the year when I can't take them. *sigh*
On the upside, other stuff is really good. I'm feeling really healthy. D and I are really happy. There really is something to the whole marriage thing, as much as I just figured it would be an extension, it isn't. It's definitely better. D is finally on board with getting a puppy!! The apt is looking great, and we are loving all our new stuff. My parents, strangely, are being so much nicer to us than they ever were. Annnnnd! We are going to see Roger Waters and the Violent Femmes in a few weeks! Not together of course...that would be an odd concert, right?

Intake and such..... Today is my vegetarian dinner day. I am now trying to bring back one or two veg dinners a week. Last week I had split pea soup and veg. panini. This week it's falafel...with hummus...and tahini..Mmhhhmmm... Today I'm doing the 40 mins of walking and a 20 minute dvd (yoga or core secrets) if I have time. A friend of mine is coming over, so we'll see how much time I have. Intake...today is a little low because I'm not going to be that active today. Tomorrow I'm going to the gym, so tomorrow's will be more around the 1600 range. Intake ( Read more... ) Current Mood: dehydrated |
