Aaaaahhhh!
I need to lose weight.
I was doing well with my goals but of course, I can't expect to do it all overnight. I cheated a little bit. I'm throwing in a new goal. No fast food. And no sweets.
I just finished baking a double batch of chocolate chip cookies yesterday.....
so yeah....
no more...
Gotta go to sleep. I've got work in the morning!

Oh Damn...
I just took a detour from my House marathon and chatted with an old friend online. He just finished becoming certified as a pararescueman. I'm really proud of him. He's probably going to be deployed to Afghanistan in January so I am really going to have hope for him and pray. I know I have neglected my religious upbringing (seems like most Catholics go through some phase) but I do believe that faith is important, especially because it can bring people together and offer hope and answer. It's not for everyone, I know. But I'm going to pray for him.
I'm also going to take some of his advice and work harder. I need to discipline myself. I've been really bad the last few weeks. I'm going to even admit because it will bring me humiliation but I've gone to Taco Bell twice in a row in the last two days. I feel really guilty now. Last time I weighed myself, I was still lighter since leaving Oberlin but I'm not making a greater effort to LOSE more WEIGHT.
I don't want to die young. I really don't. So I'm going to try harder. I'm going to establish some smaller goals. Baby steps. Taking PT's advice.
Today is November 23rd. In the next week, my goals will be:
1. No eating past 7pm. Only water.
2. Exercising for at least 30 mins a day. Even if it's just walking. Or vacuuming the house.
3. Cutting out white starches. So no more white rice. None of the pork buns my mom just made and steamed (I only ate one :P).
4. Eating a vegetable in every meal. Snacking on fruits. Making sure I eat more protein.
5. No more coffee. I'm kicking caffeine to the curb.
OK!!! Those aren't too bad right? I'll try with those small baby steps first.
