Yesterday and today haven't gone as well as I would have liked. I'm not gaining any weight, but I'm also worried that I'm just maintaining my 126. I'm pretty sure that if I expect to see any differences in my size and overall physic that I'm going to have to get alot more serious about the small things. For example actually drinking at least 8 cups of water a day. Being more exact with my food journal. Correctly logging my nutrition and activity points in spark people. I'm going to buy Jillian's Making the Cut book again, and I'm going to start a weekly food plan and not bend. I remember the food was good and after a week I'd already lost inches in both my legs and waste so I'm positive that if I start that up again and stick with it that I'll be super sexy by the time spring break rolls around.
I didn't get to go the Rec yesterday because I got a good taste of how heavy my work load is for all of my classes. I'm noticing that the habits I've been forming for weight loss have carried over nicely for school. Mom you'll be happy to know that charting all of my food in a journal has been a reminder to keep up with my agenda. So far so good. Whitney is on her way to my apartment now to pick me up for another excursion to the Rec. I'm going to work on my arms today. Jillian sent an email about different Bicep excersizes you can do. Her tip of the day is just a warning to do the Bicep curls correctly for the best results. I'm also going to do 45 min. on the sand machine and Whitney and I decided to do sit ups with the medicine ball. I would love to have a mommy daughter work out this weekend when you and dad come to fix all of our broken stuff/lend your vacuum cleaner. Whitney contrats on making it into the 140's again! I'm so proud of you. Is it getting any easier? Maybe once you shed enough you can start doing Jillians book with me! We can both be smoking hot. :-)
Food has been more difficult to ignore this week too. Eating healthy is hard because I eat more often (once every 4 hours according to Jillian) which is leaving me with less food more often. Which means more trips to the grocery store (and we all know how I feel about grocery shopping). So it's almost too easy to take Jenna up on her offer to make some delicious pasta dish I can share, or bisquits and sausage for breakfast (I only had one and I'm still within my calorie count for the day). But I know if Jillian were there she would have made me egg whites with bell peppers or something like that. I need to just restock with all healthy foods and get the book that will need to become my bible again.
I was just reading my philosopy book and Socrates said that if you know what is good the
n you do what is good. It's only when you don't know what is good for you that you do it. I disagree because there have been plenty of times that I've known the Mac and Cheese is not good for me, but still eaten it...but if I stick with the idea that true knowledge comes from doing what you know is good then I'm only going to eat what I know is good and I can say I'm losing weight with the ideals of Socrates haha.

I'll leave off as usual with Jillians tip of the day:
Keep in Mind Be careful not to swing your weights because it could result in an injury. Also, do not lift your elbows when you raise the weights, or you will engage your shoulder muscles without isolating the biceps!
Keep up the good work! Don't give up! Keep on motivating! Push yourself harder! Remember the after picture! Remember the employers! Remember the swim suits! Remember the healthy heart! annnnnnnnnnd all that good stuff!
