Thursday Night Out! & 15th Weigh in!

15th Week Weigh In!!!
:]
This week I was down 1.6 lbs awesome!
Current weight: 279
Total loss! -41
Starting Weight: 320

Last night was another great night out. It was not exactly "my scene", it was country night! I did not dance... I felt very uncomfortable dancing with so little people. If I were to dance it would have to be with more people around.. this was a handfull of people. We didn't expect it to be as crowded as it would be on Friday nights. I was proud of myself for even going! I was with new people & had a great night on my own terms. I'm sure for people who are used to going out would see my night in a different light. {haha rhyme}
Something I've noticed about all these situations I was always scared of... "people are more accepting than you gave them credit for". I must have been the only one who felt as if "I don't belong here..". Hello worst enemy!- that's me.



 Thanks!

I havn't RUN in... let's just say years?


In Elementary school..there are vivid memories of me running. I'm not positive how long it's been, but it's probably not good. The other day in my room, a feeling came over me, I had to be active! Turns out running in place for about 7 minutes is all my body was having that day.

It felt so great! I wanted to get back to that the next night, but to my dismay, the next day my legs were too sore.

Just going up & even down stairs.. I feel it. It's been a few days now since & is still hurting very much. Hopefully tomorrow the sore muscle feeling will be gone & I can get back into the running. :] Step by step, for now, no matter how much it hurts.

This sounds like a lot of complaining but I'm glad to have discovered I like running. It's really something I've been scared of for such a long time. One less thing I'm scared of!

Why I love Wednesdays!

Btw This isn't me in this video :]
Here is a link to the vlog group "Project Lifesize"

Oh! Tomorrow is Weigh in day. I have been keeping to my tracking & been  as active as my sore muscles would allow. I'll keep my fingers crossed!


 Hope everyone had a great Wednesday:]

Multigrain Turkey Sandwich { Avacado & Mushroom}


This was too good!
Instead of mayo!
I used Avocado... "good fats" :]
For the Avocado {guacamole I just added some lemon juice, garlic powder, and some salt} very quick & easy! the salt isn't even necessary..
Bread: I found these Multi-grain Ciabatta rolls at Walmart's Bakery. What a surprise, our Walmart is now also a grocery store!
Toasting the bread too it to the next level of amazing!


{ this was all yesterday! I though I had pressed the "post publish".. I guess I hadn't!}
   The other day when we were surprised by how great our Walmart is now... I wanted to look for some snack bars. My classes are all 3 hours long :] after about the 2nd hour I notice my stomach asking for some attendance. I usually do bring a bag of cereal ,that will work also, but I wanted to se if I could find anything to quickly run & go.
Here's what I'm trying this week!
I ended up using this yesterday! This quickly filled me up & helped  me through the last hour of class.
I was also  wondering... if anybody using blogger is having an issue with colors of photos when they are uploaded.  The color after going through Picasa is dulled out  (my last picture of the" kid Z bar" is unedited & much darker than the original. Just wondering if anybody else was experiencing this problem?

Is there another way to upload photos... because I noticed that even if I do upload them from my computer they are still being uploaded into Picasa & have the same outcome overall dull dark photos.
Thanks!

Good afternoon!

Weekend-wrap-up!

DANNON "CUPS OF HOPE"
The site http://www.cupsofhope.com/  ( mine came from Dannon's Yogurt Parfait)

I entered my code.. & have other to be entered as I go!

The Party {Friday}..
was actually really great. My roommates were pretty much the only people I actually knew. I did see some familiar faces & started making conversation with new people. Before the party we went to Chili's for dinner & decided to get  some drinks for before & after the party. I ended up buying watermelon Smirnoff - I've tried the Strawberry & the grapefruit before. The watermelon & strawberry will continue to be my favorites.
It was a great night overall :] There are some funny moments I'll keep to myself though.

& Last but not least
 My heart is out to everybody who knew & lost somebody in 9/11
-I hope everyone had a pleasant weekend!

- Goodnight

T.G.I.F! :]

Special K's Chocolaty Delight
This afternoon- I don't have much food left so I made due with what I had.

mmm I had the serving amount on the box :] 
I have a feeling I'll be busy later tonight :] So I wanted to get this up before Im too exhausted.
Me and my roommates have some plans for Dinner & a party later on! I've honestly not been to many parties... this will probably be my 1st at somebody else's house. I probably wont know anyone there... and it may be awkward at times. I'll try my best to keep from being awkward & just have a good time.
This being my 4th year of college, I suppose it's about time I go out and see what's happening.

Today was one of those lazy days. At some point I decided I'd try Wii Fit, but people started coming home from their last classes & I got sidetracked. Then plaid some mario galaxy 2. The rest is undefined! {for now}

Hope everyone has a great Friday/night!

14th Week Weigh In! 1lb + This Week!

I gained a pound this week!
I'am currently: 280.6
Total Loss: -39.4
We are actually having some issues with our internet & I'm using an alternative. Everything should be back around 11 tomorrow. Just wanted to get this in tonight!

This may be the 1st time I added on a pound (since I started 14 weeks ago) I am not  feeling down about it. I'm thinking it's because I was expecting this after going out so much & having the leftovers days afterwards. I also  recall not going to the gym AS MUCH. :] I would be a little more upset *with myself* if I sincerely had no clue why I had gained!
 Better get some sleep :]
Goodnight!
