Just Me

Small Rant

Was just on FB, liking a post from Disney Rewards and I started reading the few replies that were there (so far). Most were thank yous for notifying of the opportunity to use some reward points. I know everyone has the right to write their thoughts, opinions but is that really the place to whine about how you have no money and it makes you mad to read about others taking dream vacations? Sure, some of those people might have lots of money and be able to take vacations like that whenever they like but most people have to scrimp and save to go on those trips. And not everyone is going to make it to Disney World. That’s just the way it is. I think people need to think about what they have more often and quit moaning about what they don’t have.

I can’t believe how sore my neck and shoulders are from just playing silly Wii games! I didn’t get anything else done so today I must do lower body work.

Got signed up with a team on SparkPeople today. I’m using all the help/support I can get this time. I usually shy away from it because it causes me too much pressure. But I’ve decided that the pressure comes from me and I need to get over it and just let people support me and be supportive in return.

Didn’t exercise yesterday. :( Oh, I danced around a little to some music before I got dressed for the day so I guess at least I moved around a bit. I’m supposed to play on the Wii with my niece today so I’ll suggest some sports as well as the Toy Story Mania. She also wants to do the exercises from some apps I downloaded so we’ll do those today too.

I’m really enjoying being here with my family but find myself missing home. I’m halfway into my second week here so I guess that’s to be expected. I keep wishing that someone would perfect a transporter system that would allow instantaneous travel so I could go back and forth to visit my family easier and still be able to be at home to be with special friends too.

And I’ll just put this out there too…I really want a boyfriend this year. I’m not saying it’s a resolution because those are too easy to break, just that I will be doing what I have to to make it happen this year.

YES!!

Five minutes of cardio done today. Starting out small and adding as I go.

An observation…Facebook is hazardous to my maturity. I find that I’m overly sensitive to comments (or lack thereof), pics posted by others, etc. It’s like I’m back in high school or junior high school again. It’s one more thing I’m going to have to work on this year. But that’s ok. I’m gonna be one hell of a woman by the time I’m done with myself!!

Still at my sister’s so no scale but did do some exercise. I’m joining a SparkPeople team and the rec center. But I’m not putting a lot of pressure on myself. I’m just going to try and have fun while shedding pounds. Let the adventure begin!

A beginning

I’m thinking that I’m going to try blogging out here faithfully at the start of 2012, maybe a little before. I want to chronicle my weight loss journey but also just throw out random thoughts or stories. I don’t expect anyone to comment, etc but it’s certainly ok. It’s gonna be all me, uncensored and honest. Just warning you up front. :-)
