I did it. I bought the Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred. I’m ready to open up a can of whoop ass (or Jillian will do it for me). Hopefully I’ll lose some serious poundage with this because I’ve heard lots of good things about it and have seen results from other girls, so I’m hoping it will work the same way for me. (:

A much needed inspiration for Inspirational Monday. Blake Lively = gorgeous. Can I look like her now?

I just took a bottle of water out of my fridge (don’t worry, it’s filled with water from the tap.. I’m good to the environment) and filled it with Raspberry Ice Crystal Light. Before I tell you the verdict, you should know that I think that tap water is absolutely awful and I can’t drink it unless I’m taking Tylenol or cold medication because the taste is gross and makes me wanna puke. So, I took the bottle of water full of nasty tap water, put the Crystal Light in, and shook it around. I was initially scared that the tap water would take away from the taste of Raspberry Ice, however it didn’t. It was actually really good. I couldn’t taste the tap water (thank GOD!) and it was very sweet and yummy. I think I may be in love <— I also said this about chocolate and yeah, that happened.

I’ve decided.. I really hate (*cough* strongly dislike *cough*) counting calories. I started to use MyPlate at the beginning of this but I honestly feel pathetic when I reach 1200 and keep going from there. I know I should probably increase my calorie intake, putting the whale fat at ease from starvation, because I’ve already read from a few other tumblrs that said you shouldn’t limit yourself to such a small number. SO.. I’ve increased it to 1400 (is that too much?). Oh, and I bought Crystal Light today in Raspberry Ice in hopes that I’ll drink more water.. which is probably unlikely, but hey, it’s worth a shot!

In other news, I lost a pound! Hell to the YES! Which brings me down to 204. A tubby girl should be three things: classy, fabulous, and LOSING WEIGHT! 

Hello!! Isn’t a beautiful Wednesday? (: It sure is for me!

Today hasn’t been the most successful as far as good eating goes, however it’s improving all the time. I’ve made (mostly) good decisions.. so that counts for something right? (Wrong, C. Wrong.) Anyway, I had an exam this morning that was absolutely stressful, so I treated myself to Second Cup which = delicious. Or does everything taste delicious once you escape an exam? Hm!

Breakfast: Five Alive Passion Peach Citrus and an Orange

Mid-Morning: Second Cup (oops)

Lunch: Special K Bliss Mocha, Minute Maid Fruit Punch.

Mid-Afternoon: Coffee and 3 Russell Steven chocolates (double oops)

I haven’t had dinner yet but I’m already at 737 calories, however I still need to workout this afternoon so I should be hitting right at or just below the 1200 calorie mark by tonight. Oh, and I’m also starting the One-Hundred Push Ups challenge, and the Two-Hundred Sit Ups challenge so that should be fun! And by fun, I mean painful and hard on the whale fat. Sigh.

I’ve been overweight all of my life.

Am I proud of it? Definitely not.

Am I ashamed of it? Most likely, probably.. (read: hell yes)

Am I doing something about it? Starting tomorrow, yes, I will be!

365 Skinny Thoughts is my blog that I have been inspired to make by one-twenty-five (check out that lovely lady) that will let you follow along with me as I go from 195 pounds (tubby) to 125 pounds (HOTTIE!) within a matter of 365 days (more or less). I’ll be cutting out all of the bad food in my life and replacing it with better, healthier food in smaller proportions. I’ll try my best to be strict about it, but who knows??

Right now, I’m seventeen years old, 5’6, and was born ready to lose weight (ha!)

Please don’t hesitate to follow along with me, cheer me on, support me, and encourage me! (:
