Today has been pretty good. I've discovered a quite tasty recipe for chicken.. =] (One boneless, skinless chicken breast with chili powder, ranch dressing powder and garlic salt) Yum! =D So, today I woke up and made myself some food. The chicken I just mentioned, some pasta with ranch dressing powder and garlic salt then some green beans. It really kept me full for quite some time.
Then I kinda did nothing until Nicolee came and got me to go to the gym. I used a free pass she had. I did 45 minutes on the tredmill, burnt nearly 300 calories. I'm not sure if that's a lot of not, but I was happy. Then we went into the Women's Only section of the gym and did some sets on the arms and thighs. That was okay. Then we went into the steam room. Holy shit. I am telling you..that was a lot more intense then I was expecting. I walked in and could barely breathe or see. The steam was soo thick that I couldn't see the other person sitting across from me. My skin turned pink and my entire body was drenched in sweat. It was oddly pleasureable.
Then Nicolee took me home. Mom said she would be cool signing me up for the gym. I think she now realizes that this will really be good for me. I had a fruit smoothie then went and took a bath. Twas nice. =]
Then Lauren called and told me about some bullshit thats going on with her. I tried to give advice, but she's just one of those people that it seems like no matter what you tell her, she's not really going to listen. But, I think she will be fine.. If only her brothers would stop being so mean to her.
I got an email from Cami. I was happy. =D Now I know that Nicolee, her and I are all doing this thing called Calorie Counter. It's caloriecounter.about.com. What you do is enter all the information about yourself, your age, weight, height, etc. It suggests an amount of weight that you should lose and gives you a reasonable time to lose it. You enter the foods you eat and it tells you the calories. Plus, based upon your lifestyle, it tells you how many calories you should burn a day. It has workout plans, loads of recipes, support groups and a lot more. It's pretty cool. =]
I feel like I actually may be able to keep this up this time. I really hope so. I really want to lose some weight. I'm going to go with the family to Alabama this summer and I want to look better then I do so I feel more confident. It would also be cool to see Kasha and Co. and have them be like. WOW! Look at you! That would make me feel awesome. =]
I asked Zachary if he felt like everything was okay in our relationship. He said yes. That makes me feel a little bit better. There are times where I feel like it's dull or just thoughtless. So, knowing that he is okay with it makes me feel better because now I know that he's not having any negative feelings. I just need to chill and be happy, because what I have is so amazing. I love him to death and I really think he's good for me. It really does suck that we can't see eachother that often, but I know why.
I think that if I am concentrating on my diet and going to the gym, everything else in my life won't seem as boring. I think that will be good. I really need to concentrate more on school and such though. I'm not falling behind, but I really hate starting the new semester.. If you don't turn in an assignment, your grade's an F because there isn't any good things to balance it out. It's annoying. Now they have this rule that if you don't have a 40% or higher and if you don't work on each class for 4 hours a week, you will get a call home and have to have a parent/teacher conference. I was like..oh..great!! Yay..
Anyways, today has been good. =] I've been in a pretty good mood, which feels great.
