Dieting yet again

I always get off to a good start when I diet, but for some reason, I get so sick of constantly worrying about what I'm eating that I inevitably fall off the wagon. I'm trying again at the moment, and so far, so good. It's helped along by Wii Fit, which really is worth all the money and effort it takes to get it.

I'm going for 1200 calories a day, but I was taught to look at it as a week-long goal. You want to be at an average of 1200 calories a day. I'm usually look at it like this: if I eat 25 too many one day, I eat 25 fewer the next, and vice versa. I also allow myself one cheater day where I eat whatever I want, but I'm hoping that eventually, I won't cheat. Both yesterday and today were successful, so I'm looking forward to a big fat cheater day either Tuesday or Wednesday.

The Wii Fit combined with Jillian Michaels' Fitness Ultimatum 2009 kicked my ass though. Good and proper. I think the Wii Fit promotes compulsion with weight though. You're supposed to do this stupid Body Test thing every day, and today I was .2 pounds heavier than yesterday and I wigged. A regular scale would never have shown that miniscule amount, but that stupid balance board does. BOO.

I'll keep my diet talk to a minimum. It's very boring, but I'm going Tuesday to Monday with my weekly weight totals, so...

Starting Weight: 186.4
Week 1 Weight: 183.2

*sigh* Hopefully, it will get better. I set a 10 pounds in two weeks goal, but I don't think I'm going to make that. Here's hoping!

AIM madness

No motivation

I've been slacking on this thing, and though really, no one reads it, I swore to myself I would keep it up because it's good writing practice. So, now I will attempt to put something down to assuage my guilt.

I FINALLY found a Wii Fit. I'm very excited about it, but after my first day, I'm a big discouraged. I had a little video game voice telling him "THAT'S OBESE," and it nearly crushed my soul. At least now I have a goal! I've been on a diet for about three weeks, but I keep falling off the wagon. I'm really trying though.

I'm getting the burn out from work again, which is crazy, I know.

I'm also falling behind on my other blog that is still a work in progress, AND my book which is almost non-existant in the way of work. It might be a good thing. I'm getting better inspiration from other places now.

Jenny made me a new quillow! It has wizards! HUZZAH!

AND I got a new tattoo. It is beauty. It's the Dark Mark, and it's officially a week old today. Happy birthday tattoo!

Life sometimes eats it LIK WO

I had a meltdown today LIK WO. I'm just fed up with my family. Moo and The Baby Daddy have been here for almost a week, and it's starting to get to me. It's just a lot of people in a small place, I guess.

I'm trying to learn to knit with needles now. It's hard LIK WO.

I still haven't started on my altered book yet. FAIL.

Last night, I read old Star Trek fan fiction I wrote. EPIC FAIL.

I have an idea for another blog. I think it's a really good one. VICTORY!

I'm tired now LIK WO.
