trying

ok-- i am going to do the cereal diet thing to jump start my weight loss. A bowl of cereal for bfast, another for lunch---and then a sensible dinner. My only problem is that after starving myself all day---how can I be sensible? I see issues coming next saturday when I go to Mas with Melissa and Hattie. I think i can be sensible food-wise b/c Mas isn't uber vegetarian. However, the sangria is sooooo good and it will be my last day of school (yes, we do have to go in on saturday for a full day)

I took a week off of running--which was not a good idea b/c I am kinda dreading running tonight. But it must be done. I just found some photos of my 2006 graduation party and I remember thinking I was fat when I got them back....and now I totally wish I could be that "fat". I also do not think i need to go on a shopping spree at all when I lose weight (if i lose weight). I found all these clothes while going on my bi-annual closet purge that will totally fit me if i lose about 10 lbs. So that is now the goal. My mother will be pleased-- i think she was regretting offering to take me on a 1K$ shopping spree if i ever got down to 138 lbs and kept it off for 3 months. It was awfully nice of her, but I would never take her up on it. #1--it is not going to happen and #2---that is way too many clothes. Man, I really need to get this weight off. This time for real.

20 lbs. Target date: August 23rd. 10 weeks. 2 lbs a week. totally doable. here I go.
