heartburn mid workout left me not feeling so hot and a little dizzy and out of it. maybe i didn’t eat enough today. i don’t know. hopefully it doesn’t happen again because it’s rather scary. i hate feeling like that. it didn’t cut my workout short or anything, but i couldn’t go as hard as i wanted. i just felt so weird. i hadn’t eaten for a couple...

12/19 - 136.5
Very happy with this number. Why? Because last week was insanely difficult and I binged several times. I really thought I messed it all up and would be back up to 138 or 139 or worse… 140. Instead, I’m pretty damn happy. It can only get better from here. I will be motivated this week. And yes, I may indulge during the holidays, but this number really fuels good behavior....

sometimes i forget how great exercise makes me...
it was my first day back to the gym after my mini bout of depression (i haven’t been since last thursday). besides cramping a little bit during (i still have my lovely period), i felt great. man, just listening to my music and being out and on my own for forty-five minutes felt great. it was a little hard starting out, but by the end i was feeling great. i have to remember this feeling...

shark week was a major set back this time.
not only did i have an emotional breakdown after seeing the descendants on sunday (note: DON’T see this movie if you’ve lost a loved one within the year. i lost my aunt (she was like a second mother to me so it’s been rather tough) six months ago), but I couldn’t even get out of bed yesterday. i was just extremely depressed. needless to say, my period affected my eating...

Yeahhh. Last week was quite the struggle. I didn’t eat nearly enough thursday through saturday and then had a mini binge on sunday. But what have I learned? Self, stop trying to cut your calories to under or at 500 calories a day. Stop it. Why were you going so long without a binge? Because you actually fed yourself and weren’t ravenous 24/7. Seriously. I’ve learned my...

Day forty-seven: Have you ever come close to giving up? What made you change your mind?
I come close to giving up every day. When I say each day is a struggle, I mean that. I guess the thing that changes my mind day to day is tumblr. Seeing so many girls succeed and be strong and healthy inspires me to be healthy as well. I’m just trying to accept myself… which is the hardest...

"stop comparing yourself to others."
this is something i have to remind myself almost every day. it’s so dangerous to look at pictures of these fit women, these skinny, tall, beautiful women and think that i should look like them. but something even more dangerous is looking at pictures of girls my age on facebook and comparing myself to them. i will never be blonde, i can’t ever grow past my 5’3.5” height,...

Day forty-five: Who is your main inspiration to lose weight? Not a celebrity, someone from real life.
I… I don’t know. Maybe my sisters, I guess. My one sister has my ideal body, but she’s been running for years. I guess I’ve always been so surrounded by the media and TV that I’ve always wanted to fashion myself according to them. I’ve never realized just...
