Quit Smoking (read all 3 entries…)
Almost 2 Weeks 5 months ago

Two weeks (twelve days) almost without a cigarette and I feel really good about it. I still get the urge everynow and then, but most the day, I don’t even want one. I’m proud of myself!

10 days to make a habit, 21 to break…

I’m getting there!!



lose weight
I Don't Want To Be Skinny, Just Healthy... 6 months ago

I’ve always been bigger than I was supposed to be, but it wasn’t till after I had my child that my weight stayed to a way above average for me. So it can be really depressing and I understand that it takes hard work, exersize, eating right, and all that… and that I can do. I really can. But it’s the motivation to get to that part that is the hardest, if that makes any sense..

I have a two year old, so it’s not like I can go jogging with her, because she’ll not have a problem keeping up with me, but the other way around lol. I make too many excuses, and I think that’s what’s killing me from really committing to it. I don’t like exersizing alone or in big groups and I just feel uncomfortable.. and I hate it!

But I want to… Within the next year (1 year) I want to drop between 80-100 lbs. I don’t want to lose it too fast and have the extra skin, so I need to do it slower so I don’t have to worry about that happening and then coming up with thousands of dollars for skin removal, eww…

But, anything encouraging would be great and I’ll return it!

Now That I Found Him, Where Do I Go? 6 months ago

It’s hard sometimes even though I have found my father, and I’m not sure if it’s because it’s been these 22 years of my life of things that were unknown to me and things are new, or that I imagined this heartless asshole who didn’t want to stay and raise me and that’s why he left, but yet he is so incredibly nice to me when we talk. I can’t come to tell him all the pain that it caused me growing up and within relationships because he’s such a nice guy to me. He is more than willing to sit down and listen to anything and everything I have to say and he said he deserves a good share of blame. But it is really weird to think about what to say or do because after all these years of not knowing, here’s my chance and it’s like I’ve gone brain dead…
