Fabfattie's Day 1!

Helloooo world!
I am in SUCH a good mood today! You know why???? IT'S SUMMER! :D no more studying until fall semester starts! yay!!!
I got two of my grades back so far: D+ and C-..... ewww. But I really wasn't ready for UD when I started there, and my body collapsed a lot, so the grades aren't a surprise to me. Next semester I'll be ok.

BUT that's not what today's blog is about!
Today started Fabfattie's new challenge! woohoo! I woke up, had a GREAT breakfast, went to the gym for an hour (I feel excellent!), drank 2 bottles of water (so far), had a strawberry protein shake, and went to my WW meeting. I only lost .2 when I weighed in, BUT that's still a loss, so I'm happy!!!!!
(can you tell how much more carefree I am now that finals are over??? lol).

I'm getting ready to have an EXCELLENT lunch... though I'm not sure what it'll be yet! But I'll think of something.
I might take the puppy out for a walk first though??? hmm....

But yeah, I just thought I'd share my day real quickly! :) I know it's not a long post, but I'm STARVED, so I'm gonna go eat and then track my points etc... and then go to the sprint store with the daddy so I can try to get a phone that actually works!
Followed by work. :( ugh but it's money.


Talk to you guys laterr!!!!!
Love, me <3

Insanity is slowly slipping away...

Hey look, it's me! O.O wow... I'm getting there lol.

OK, so I'm working through stuff for my last final (which is TODAY) (and chemistry... *whimper*), and I think I've totally passed my capacity to take things in. 4 finals, 4 days in a row... I'm so exhausted, I can barely stand it... :(

BUT! It's the LAST FINALL!!!!! Which means... at like 6 tonight, I will be on SUMMER BREAK! And that right there my friends is the best thing ever. :) Because summer means that me, and Kelli, start to run a lot. Like 4 days a week... it's pretty much a C25K thing we do, so maybe this year I'll be able to do a 5K. Last year, when we started the running program, I couldn't run. And that's not an understatement... The interval was 2 minutes running, and I could barely do 1 minute. It was a disaster.
If you ask Kelli, I've come a looooooong way since then.

But anyways... (yes, this IS me being a procrastinator. But you try doing CSBs [aka Chem Skill Builders] when your brain has completely shut itself off. It's impossible) I just wanted to say that FABFATTIE'S CHALLENGE IS GOING TO BE STARTING SOON! AND YOU SHOULD JOIN ME!!!!!!! Because it's going to be fun, and exciting, and earning points is always the best! Not to mention, it's a great excuse to be healthy and active!!!! :)

So yes... join me! YAY! :)

Ok... I'm going to go back to my studying/homework now.

OH and for those who read any of my fanfic that might be looking..... I have half of chapter 8 for Traveling Soldier written, BUT I refused to write anymore until I was done with finals.... which means... I SHOULD FINISH WRITING IT TONIGHT!!!!!!!!!!
And I'll try to get something for my other two stories worked through as well... I know the people who read those stories probably hate me right about now. Oops. :(

Leave me messages loves! I'm looking forward to lots of encouragement over the next 2 weeks while I work through this challenge (my first during WW!).

Love, me <3

So... I really SHOULD be studying right now, BUT... I am so ADD it's not even funny. :( Oh well, criminal justice will just have to wait for a little while longer (I do have all of the notes sitting right in front of me at least!).

So, before I head back to my notes and notecards... with my highlighter!... I thought I'd also admit that the hardest part is going to be giving up the soda, or (even worse) my Monster!!! I have a can of the Blue Monster (yay lo-carb!) sitting right next to me, OPEN, so that I can restore my energy and try to not pass out with these notes! ACK! urggggg. :(

Also, as for my WW journey... I've lost a total of 7.8, 2.4 of them last week! Yeah!!! I have a feeling this week's already messed up (and it's only Tuesday) because I haven't done much of anything except cram for all 4 of my exams (silly things like finals and classes and universities, right?)... but I am hoping to get more active and less Monster-dependent in the next couple of days.
I leave for Mississippi next Saturday (the 6th), right during fabfatties challenge, BUT I know that I'll be able to do it! :)

Alright, no more putting of the studying... let me know if you're joining us in the challenge.
Love, me. <3
