Cinny's Journey to Health

[Edochi]

You have to be unafraid of the fall...

Hello, everyone. This will be where I log at least once every week my progress on my journey towards a healthier life-- I would like to log at least 4 times a week, but it all depends on how things go. :3 Once a week at least.

So here we go!

In about 2 months I will be 20 years old.

Height: 5'3"
Current Weight: 158 lbs
Goal Weight: 140 lbs by June 2nd (130-125 is my ultimate goal)
Waistline: 28.5in. (72.4cm)

I want to fit into my size 9 Jeans.

I will not eat left-over doughnuts at work. Drink lots of water/other liquids.

Exercise 5 days out of the week for 30+ minutes. Start riding bike to work once it gets warmer out. :3


I will also log in a personal journal at least 3 days of the week (for personal health). And will practice smiling more often and make a more conscious effort to do so. Will tell people how I feel instead of lock it up inside and continue being open about my thoughts.

...in order to keep your balance

Be careful with that, love.

I know I should be careful to not leave out meals-- but I work a late shift at a truck stop, and also recently have became ill. So I'm spending most of my time sleeping if I'm not at work. =/ But I'm usually more careful about it.

Day 5- Update

So I didn't log my meals on Wednesday and Thursday (wasn't planning on keeping track of every day anyway... but anyway)
I have decided to go vegetarian. I have already bought much of what I'll need for meals and such and making sure I have protein.

Also, I'm ill. It turns out I have tonsillitis and had to be prescribed some meds for it. I've had it for 2 weeks, but didn't feel sick or anything yesterday when I decided to visit the doctor.

I'm at 156 pounds right now, though I think it may just be because I'm sick and I always lose weight and gain it back when I'm sick. =/

Hope you feel better! Just remember to take care of yourself and get lots of rest.
