Hey guys so this past week I have been overeating like crazy, not necessarily binging, but eating way over my calories and it feels horrible. It's like in my mind i know i shouldn't have the third slice of pizza or the 5th cookie, but i just do it and my control is just gone. I need to get that control back again, and so I planned with my mom to go shopping and stock up the house so we don't go get fast food anymore and i discussed with my friend denise how we should start walking together everyday. I think i just need someone to do this with me, and my friend is trying to lose weight too, so it should help to get me back on track.
Anyway, on a lighter note, I got bangs on sunday! This picture isn't the greatest, but I just wanted to show you guys what they looked like.
I think i have to play with them a little to see how they'll look in different ways. Well, that's all for now, talk to ya'll later!

Happy V-day!!
Happy V-day/single's awareness day lol. So, I decided to weigh-in this morning and I did actually lose weight!! I've lost 2 pounds so far. Not bad for having a cold the first week i start and then getting my you know what the next week. I say I did pretty well. I went and saw valentine's day with my friend kristen last night, it was hilarious. A little slow in the beginning but got better toward the middle. I made caramel apples this week for mary's work and for the fam, that was so much fun. I love decorating them, drizzling the chocolate, all that. My mom just got me a cupcake decorating book and there are soo many cute cupcake ideas i want to do, i can't wait!! Okay, obviously this is a random blog, because I really have nothing new to say. But, I hope everyone has a great day/night today, love you all!!

Happy Happy Day!!
This post has absolutely nothing to do with weight loss, just to let everyone know. If you're following me on facebook, you would have seen that this past weekend my mom and I painted my entire room. I was definitely in need of a change. The room I had before was a hawaiian theme which was exactly what I wanted at the time, but now it's old and time for a solid!! So, here is the end product...

It's February!!
Hey guys!
Okay, so I weighed-in today and I actually gained 2 pounds! It's not that big of a surprise to me, since this past month I have been eating really crappy and not exercising at all. I don't really know if i gained the 2 pounds or lost anything, because this week I did eat very well, so it may have been that I gained during the first part of this month and because I just weighed-in it looks like I gained (if that makes sense). Anyway, I think once this cold subsides I will start exercising again, but for now I am just going to eat the right things.
As for my life in general, it is pretty overwhelming right now. More with school than anything else. I finally made an appointment with my counselor, because I need to talk to him about not doing the vet tech certificate anymore. And, I know you guys may be shocked when I say this, but I am also rethinking the entire veterinarian thing as a career choice. I feel like these classes I have been taking at the JC have given me some insight toward being a vet, and I have to say, that I don't think I would be happy in that career. I feel like working with the animals would be fun, but at the same time I wouldn't really want to do it everyday.
Now, I know this may seem weird, but I have sort of narrowed down my options to a career in baking. The only thing is I don't know what i should do now while I am at the JC, that's why the counselor is needed. And, I also feel that I love baking. I know I would probably have to go into culinary classes, but i like cooking too and i would definitely rather be doing something I love than something I feel I have to do. The veterinary career was something I felt I had to do for the future. I would get better money and I would be pleasing my family, but I know how to save money and family should be happy with whatever I choose. So, this is my choice and I'm finally getting it out there. Tell me what you guys think, because I want to hear everyones opinions :) Talk to ya next monday, have a great week, bye!
