I’ve been thinking about joining a gym because my sister is a member of one and likes it very much. So my question to you, is do you recommend someone who is trying to lose weight to join a gym?

I know you need exercise as well as eating well to lose any weight, but there are also workout rountines you can do from the comfort of your own home. So please let me know what you think would be most effective. Just leave a comment thanks.

I cannot believe this. I have sunk beyond what I have ever imagined in regards to my weight. I have never really stuck to a diet or dieted for that fact, but I got inspiration from some fellow bloggers who are well on their way to losing weight.

I was hesitant to stand on the scale and see how much I weigh. To my surprise I cannot believe I’ve let myself get to 300lbs!! The scale at home doesn’t even go to that. It only goes to approximately 270lbs and well…I started over the 0 line again. OMG! I am so embarrassed and mad at myself that I let myself fall to that. For goodness sake, I’ve never had child. All this weight it just from eating too much junk food and not enough exercise.

What is going through my head right now, can’t even be described into words except “being a failure“. I am 21 years old and weigh approximately 300lbs! I don’t even know why I eat so freakin much. Maybe I’ve let it go so it’s actually more of a hobby now.

I am so upset and need to do something about this immediately! I’m scared that weighing in as I am and looking at my future, that it’ll be a gruesome one if I don’t do something about it now. I checked out a weight calculator and this was my results:

Body mass index (BMI): 56.8
Body surface area (BSA): 2.42
Ideal body weight: 114 lb – 128 lb
Lean body weight: 78 lb

For someone my age and my current weight, it’s far into being obese.

So what am I going to do about it??

- I have officially decided to go on a diet.

- Join Extrapounds.com for support and other information.

- Establish a daily rountine for eating and exercising.

07:00 a.m. – eat breakfast

11:00 a.m. – small snack

01:00 p.m. – eat small lunch

04:00 p.m. – eat supper

06:00 p.m. – small snack

As far as exercising goes, two 30-minute routines. Once in the morning before I start off my day, the other at night before I go to bed.

Hopefully this will help me lose weight as I need to do this for health issues I’m afraid of. I will update soon with some other revelant information.

1) I will have a cup of coffee in the morning and read my newspaper like I used to, before the Web.

2) I will eat breakfast with a knife and fork and not with one hand typing.

3) I will get dressed before noon.

4) I will make an attempt to clean the house, wash clothes, and plan dinner before even thinking of the Web.

5) I will sit down and write a letter to those unfortunate few friends and family that are Web-deprived.

6) I will call someone on the phone who I cannot contact via the Web.

7) I will read a book…if I still remember how.

8) I will listen to those around me and their needs and stop telling them to turn the TV down so I can hear the music on the Web.

9) I will not be tempted during TV commercials to check for email.

10) I will try and get out of the house at least once a week, if it is necessary or not.

11) I will remember that my bank is not forgiving if I forget to balance my checkbook because I was too busy on the Web.

12) Last, but not least, I will remember that I must go to bed sometime … and the Web will always be there tomorrow!

WARNING: NOT FOR MINORS TO READ!

Fuck man, guys can be such assholes!!

I just had a weekend romance ending with a playa who got playa since I guess he didn’t know, girls DO talk!!

Like seriously, I met this guy friday and spent a whole lotta time talking with him on msn n da phone. He seemed like a really nice guy I could really get to know. Den my sis is loookin at his myspace account n notices a girl who had the same name as the nickname he gave me. So I msged her n asked if he was romancing here in any way. She’s like who “blank”, he’s my boyfriend. Then she saw the msg he left on my myspace account n like u can have him. I’m like ya okay us girls don’t need a playa. It’s ova.

Now he keeps text messaging me, calling me, msging me on myspace. Like fuck you lost your chance fuckface. It’s ova and done with now. I’ve got like 20+ txt messages from him on my phone. A lil obssessive don’t you think. Move on boy cause I need a man not a lil playa.

Stupid fucken guys nowadays, ain’t got no respect for women n just wanna treat em like pieces of meat. Well, not me boy, get a life.

If you enjoy editing photographs that you have on your computer, then YOU ARE GONNA LOVE THIS!!!!

I found this website called PikiPimp and shit is it ever funny. It’s so simple to use and the results are priceless. Just head on over to PikiPimp and upload a photo. Then you can add some items such as wigs, hats, teeth, etc. It’s really cool!!

Here’s the one I created below from a photograph that I had of myself and my two sisters.

Sorry if you can’t read what the speech bubbles say they are (from left to right):

“Hardy, harr, harr…”

“I’m pimping it!”

“What did I get myself into??”

[EDIT:] I didn’t end up buying the books from that girl. I decided to go with BRAND new ones LOL!!! oh well. I like new books and not ones that are written all over in.

Well, semester 2 has already begun for be as of January 4th. Arrgghhhh now all my time is gonna be dedicated to achieving good grades and with homework, projects, presentations, and a whole other bunch of shit that a student must to in order to get fucken marks.

The joy…NOT!! Well, not always anyways. Man just buying the stupid textbooks costs so bloody much. Thankfully, I’m buying some used ones off of a girl who posted on a bulletin board that she’s selling used books. THANK YOU!!! Saves me at least some money as opposed to if I were to buy it new from the school bookstore.

Well, I’m tired so I’ll heading to bed for an afternoon nap. cya.
