I went for my 2 hours(actually 90 minutes) of exercise today, and I just don't feel like it was enough. I wanted to do more, but I had things to do today so I couldn't stay longer. I actually did 2 hours yesterday and I'm still sore from it. I plan on doing another 30 minutes,at least, tonight because I just don't feel like I'm doing enough! I don't feel like my body is changing enough. I still have my pouch, I still have my thighs, and the weight isn't really coming off like it should. I know it's only been a couple of weeks,and nothing will happen over night, but dammit I want some results. I trying to watch my eating habits, and it's getting to the point where I'm afraid to eat some things which isn't good.

My weigh in was today and I weighed in at 153.2. I haven't been under 155 since I was in Baltimore,and I'm almost down to the weight I was when I was there. My next goal weight is 150,and I want to get down to it by next Monday. Yep, I want to lose 3.2 pounds this week. I really want to do it just to see if I can. Plus I get a good check next week and I want to buy one of those new VS Beauty Rush scents. The ones they have out for the Summer. The Lemonade scent is to die for! Anyway, I want to be down to 150 by next Monday even though I know I shouldn't lose more than 2 pounds a week, doing it once isn't that bad is it?
I really think I can do it if I eat the right food, exercise daily,and work really hard. The only way to find out if it happens is to stay tuned to next week!!!

Today is payday and my check should be at my job by now. It's suppose to be a really nice check, so tomorrow I'll get my Summer lay a way out(unless I have time before work today) and I'll go to wal mart right after and get some healthy snacks, my protein,and some fruits and veggies to help me on my way to making my goal. As of today, I haven't lost any weight and it's kind of depressing, but there's always next week and if I buy the right food along with my workout, I should drop some pounds. The only thing is that my budget for this week is between $20 and $30. I don't know how much I can get for that, but if I shop anything like I did last summer I'll be able to manage. Here's my very vague shopping list:
Almonds
Soy Milk
Apples
Fruit
Yogurt
Veggies
Protein
I don't even like almonds, actually I never gave them a chance, but I'll give them a try. I'm trying to stay away from any food that comes out of a box or a drive thru window. With the exception of my Saturday teriyaki, which is ok because I barely eat on Saturdays. Anyway, let me go shower and get dress and go pick up this check. Hopefully this diet will work and I don't end up in the Taco Bell drive thru this weekend!

On Monday I decided to join a challenge in one of my Sparkpeople groups to lose 15 pounds in 30 days. Ok I think that the actual challenge was to 10 pounds, but I'm 15 lbs away from my first goal of reaching 140, so I decided to go for the extra 5lbs. I know its going to be hard but if I stay focus I know I will reach it. I have until June 11th to get down to 140,and I will be doing by working out 5 to 6 times a week for an hour to 2 hours. Eating less fast food (trying to avoid Taco Bell, my favorite spot) and just trying to stay focus. My problem is that I get bored with something, or I don't feel like doing things after a while so I just quit. I can't quit.
