Butter. Losers. Model. Friends. Chat up

I feel like I gained more weight since I got back home. Must be because I have not been exercising because of the scorching heat and the long family get togethers. Today will be one of those days where I get to hang out with old friends, and talk about issues that may require me to help out financially. I don't mind, because i know it will be for a good cause and that I am currently doing fine.  Even if I need to pull loans for a prestigeous school and have rent money.  But, the rent money should not be a problem for me no more.  I am more concerned about getting into shape--practice exercsing for at least 5x a week and being happier.  I need to be more adventureous while being responsible at the same time.  There is only 1 more year until I graduate, and I have done most of the require classes.  With that in mind, I should take the time and use it to exercise and think of what i eat.

I feel all sluggish right now. I really want to exercise and stretch. 

So far the most rewarding and fun thing I have done was drive on a freeway from North to South CA, after a year of not driving! :)

Once I get back to my apartment, I will begin a new lifestyle. I want to have more patience  and not get so upset over little things, even big things that will throw me off in losing weight and getting into shape.

For example: Family support.

My sister lost weight by changing the way she eat and what she ate. She is a bridemaids, and was mocked about her weight too. She lost 20 lb after 6 months--she may not exercise, but I think she does it just by being a serve (you know- walking around here and there.) Initially she wanted to be supportive of me losing weight, but she suspects that I love eating junk food. I don't love it! She would ask me, 'do you eat butter'--- I dont, nor do I cook with it...

Guess I just need to carry on and ignore it.

At first, when I go on FB and see pictures or meet old friends/classmates-- I get shocked and surprised on how much weight they have lost. I feel like, man, why cant I do that? I use to get depress over it, but now I dont. I am fine about it! I look at it as a motivation.. I want to get to where they are, and feel strong! Independently. mentally, emotionally, and physically strong!

I am curious about how I would look too when I get healthier--my face would lose some of its fat! I think the fat is caving in my mouth  HAHA! :) I see the changes in my model friend.

As of now I probably weigh 175-180 lb.

L bicep is 13 inch 
Chest 34 in
waist 39
hips 43
thigh 26

I plan on coming back home during winter break..hopefully i dont have to work and do an internship! Let's see if there will be changes. Well there will be changes! I want to get my exercise routine back!
I need to be back--I have some newborns that I want to see in my fam/ friend's fam.

I want to cosplay in fanime too! So this should be a goal for me! :) Wow, sounds fun! Get a Job, a good one, volunteer if I could--at a hospital! And work out and get ready to cosplay! I wonder--who should I cosplay as!? :)

And it is nice to catch up with friends:)

    :DThanks natsu2! I am back at my apt and had to literally clean up the kitchen and fridge because of my careless roommate. I will buy foods that are a healthier alternatives. So far I have a loaf of bread that is high in fiber and protein. :D Aha! I will get a wrap next time! I like Lavash wraps, but they are hard to toast since they become crispy really fast. I realize I buy too much food and end up not eating it. Therefore I am going to use my vacation time to watch what I buy that are good for and in the right amount. My bf is taking summer school and is living with me due to financial reasons and will not have to commute hours to school. He knows how i feel about my weight and my family's reaction towards it. Of course, he is supporting me to be healthier and get back to an exercising routine.

    I'm always curious about what I would look like to after I lose all this unnecessary weight. :) I found that by adding fiber to my diet, I was able to lose weight. There are tons of great foods to buy that are loaded with fiber. We eat a lot of beans, berries, and have changed from using sandwich breads to high fiber wraps for our lunches. We don't buy anything that comes in a box, either. The sodium levels are through the roof and definitely not good for you. Try making little changes like that and see how it goes!
