My October Journals
October 27, 1999
Today was weigh in day! No, I did not lose 7 pounds, but i did lose 5.7 lbs.!! So, that's good. Today I had a breakfast bar, granola bar, Arby's Roast Beef sandwich, a couple ritz crackers, and some trix cereal! Yuck, all junk!! i know all the sugar and refined flour isn't doing good things for me! So, tomorrow i will not eat any junk, only good stuff. And, for anyone who cares, the costume is taking shape! Thanks for listening!

Well, I don't even have the time to write in this journal today, but I thought I really should so, here I am! Let's see, ate breakfst bar this morning, fruit, yougurt, and some sort of pasta for lunch/dinner, and 2 cups(this is an oops) of trix dry cereal at night! Bad bad, I know, it's just processed suger and junk, but I had so much homework, that I snacked while doing it! I got my self into more stuff, I said that I would make my friends little brother's halloween costume! That would be fine, except there is no pattern I can work from! How do you make a pokemon costume???? Well, so add that to my list of things to do!

Ok, This is the last time I'll mention the counter, but wow again! Never though more than 2 people would come by! But thank you all for your support! I also thought maybe I should clear something up, I do know that losing 33? 32? well, a lot of lbs. in 2 monthes isn't exactly realistic! I just know myself and I know that if I don't try for something high, I will settle real low and eventually stop. So, if I try hard, and yes, I will try, I will be happy with where I get! Well, today I ate a jenny breakfast bar and milk, even had bread and more milk(gotta have calcium!) and soup for dinner/lunch. and some Yougurt after work. Exercise was work again, EXTREMELY stressful today because we were short and I had to cover 5 million tables, at least 12! And there was a leak in the kitchen so we were slipping and slidding all over the place, ah! And I have a calc test tomorrow and I am clueless about this chapter, and a million other things that weigh on a high school seniors mind!!!! Tomorrow I plan to do some sort of an exercise since I don't work, if you see me on, msg me and tell me to get moving!

Wow! I just happened to notice the counter thing, and stuck it on the bottom of my page in the afternoon before going to work. I came back and I think around 200 people had come and looked at my page! That made me kinda self concious, since I hadn't advertised this at all, I assumed I had a bit of time to get it going! Oh well, I guess that is good, now I know people are watching me, and that I better do well! Anyways, like I said yesterday, today's eating was the same. Went to work, drank water and a little diet soda only, then had a meal during my break at 2:30, it was Jenny Food again, pasta. But, today I also had one of those Jenny cakes. And a very small bite of candy, oops! And, again I got a lot of exercise! Now, the weekdays are different. I have a different schedule, school from 7-1 then work from 4-7. That just means I'll be home for a long time and when I am home for long periods of time I tend to get the munchies! But I'll try not to let that happen tomorrow!

Today went well. I didn't eat much, but I don't know if that's much of a problem. I went to work at 11am and didn't eat before, I came home and ate at 2pm. I had a Jenny Pizza. (In case you can't tell I'm on Jenny Craig) Then I went back to work until 7pm. I did not eat after that, only 3 tootsie rolls, which isn't much, probably only 1 gram of fat and a few calories. Nothing else bad today, except for maybe a sip of regular coke. I also got a lot of exercise today because I waitressed for 6 hours! I know I should have eatten more, but I couldn't pass up the oppertunity where I was too busy(and kinda disgusted with food) to want to eat! Tomorrow might be the same. I will only weigh myself once a week on Wednesdays. Last Wednesday I was 197.7, we'll see about this Wednesday!

Today is my first day writing in this journal. I saw the whole idea of it and this page and liked it so much I started immediately. I hope you don’t mind Kim if you are reading this, but after all, imitation is the best form of flattery! Anyways, it will be good for me to get this out somewhere so I can be held accountable, because I seem to slide when nobody knows what I am doing! This way I can’t slide without somebody knowing about it! I would really like to lose 32 lbs. by Christmas time. It is about time that I tried to lose the weight! I have to stick to the diet plan and also start exercising. That is something that I have’nt really done before, so if I could develop an exercise plan and stick to it, that would be great!! My goal is to lose 7 lbs. this week. I know that sounds like too much, but what I really want is to get down to 190 by next Wednesday. This last Wednesday I weighed in after pretty much eating everything in sight for almost the whole week. It is a surprise I didn’t gain anything! So, I think that it is probable that I will lose 7 this week, maybe, I’ll find out! Today I pretty much stayed right, except for 6 tootsie rolls(oops) and a smige of chocolate(penny size) also I worked, I’m a waitress, so I got exercise!
