Ok.. so I stepped on a scale the other day and it said I was 150 lbs! ( I don't know if it is true or not.) I was 115lbs when I moved down here! But now I am 150!? So I have decided to go on a diet. The Atkins diet actually. For those of you who don't know, the Atkins diet is a "Low- Carb" diet. Which means I can have up to 40 grams of carbohydrates each day. This may not seem so bad, but a can of pepsi has 36 grams. So its been a little difficult so far. I am on day 2. But the good thing is, that I get all the meat I could ever want. So its not like I am starving myself... its just that I am a carb addict. I really want a pepsi. I really want some crackers and french fries and other countless carb-filled delights.
I have also starting using that big room that the apartment complex provides for us renters. I think its called... a gym? I am not really sure what its called since I haven't ever used one before. *smiles* So I suppose that I will have to keep record of my weightloss here... so then I feel like I have some kind of obligation. The strange thing is that I don't look like I weight 150... but I guess I do. So all of you.. I am going to lose 30 lbs but the end of the year. ( I am not sure how long it actually takes to lose that much weight and still not be anorexic. If it is in time for bikini season then I would be just that much happier.)
I figured out why I have gained so much weight so quickly too. The first thing is that I got used to eating super healthy things at home. My dad is a diabetic and my mom is on the Atkins diet. So food was pretty darn healthy. I also had jobs where I was on my feet alot. I also was doing plays all of the time. So I was working off everything. But since I moved down here, I haven't done a play, Greg likes Ramen, Greg like macaroni and cheese, I don't like cooking everynight so we would go out to dinner, and I got a job where I sit infront of a computer making ads all day long. So I guess I can see where I would gain weight.
I guess I need to buy a scale too. That way I have some way to track my progress. *sigh* I will be super thin again. I swear it!
