13 O' Clock

So was watching my new favorite show, L.A Ink and this one lady really got my attention. She wanted a tattoo of a pocket watch with 13 O'clock on it. Her inspiration behind it was she was always waiting for this imaginary time to begin living her life. She said she wouldn't do things like go dancing, or wear lingerie because she was overweight or other reasons and she was waiting till she was in shape to do anything, always waiting. Then one day an alarm went of in her head and said stop letting her life pass her by and stop being so passive.

It really hit home because that's exactly what I do. I don't go to clubs or go dancing because I'm waiting till I loose weight. I'm afraid to try a new job because I'm afraid I will be horrible at it. I can work really well but it takes me a little longer to learn in the beginning. Hearing her story just makes me really reconsider a lot of things and want to be a better person and more importantly start living my life and stop being afraid.

Well gots to go...


P.S- For anyone who might read, Try and think possitive thought bout the gym, I used to hate the idea of going (sometimes still do) but it will be totaly worth it.. I know one day I will look like this......

Brand New Shoes : )


So the other day at work this really cute guy came in. He was prob in his mid twenties,dressed really nice and had a baby ( it's wierd but I think young dads are hot). But the thing I noticed was he was wearing a pair of yellow Sneakers. Anyone who knows me knows I'm not the biggest fan of yellow anything, but on this guy they looked really good. So of course I really wanted a pair so I made it a goal to find a cool pair this weekend. Well I found a pair and can't wait to break them in(lll post a picture when I get to my computer)

T.G.I.F

Yes, T.G.I.F, Thank God Its Friday!!! (well Saturday now but oh well). Work was okay today, my coworker pissed me of, but what would a day at the Quiz be without that happening : ). Got paid today, wasn't as much as I anticipated but that's what I get for leaving early for being sick one day.
So after work went with my bro to get my dads birthday gift. Its a wireless subwoffer surround sound with a DVD player combined, pretty cool if you ask me. Then as it would only be fitting to do today went to Fridays for dinner. Got the Petite sirloin and they were not joking bout that, were talking tiny. Came with some five cheese mac and cheese, everything tasted real good but could have been more there. Blizzard at DQ for dessert and then saw District 9. Was interesting but wouldn't see it again.
Oh yeah, so at dinner tonight I joked to the waitress that my friend and I were the 5Th and 6Th wheals of our group. She then said that she'll be my friends date to witch I said I needed a cute waiter for me. When she came back she brought one of the waiters over, it was pretty funny and I prob blushed a little.
Well, that was my night. It was a good time had by all especially after having a few Mango Mai Tai's.
Till next time homos......peace!

My Husband #Atthispointimgonnastopkeepingtrack- Jamie Dornan (Warning- Scorching Hotness)







Todays Food

Breakfast- Apple Sauce- 100cal
Lunch- Ham and Swiss on Wheat ~400cal
Snack- Turkey and Cheddar at work (just turk, cheese and toms)- ~500cal
Dinner- Sml Black Angus- ~400cal
Stuff I Shouldnt Have Ate After Work- Two Ribs and a cornbread roll from Famous Daves- I have no clue, just tried to look it up but you can barely find any nutritional information for Famous Dave's. So lets assume the worst. Though I find it hard to believe, one site said just one of their cornbread rolls contains 600cal!!! So add the ribs which lets just say was also 600.....that brings my daily total toooo 2,600 for the day.

Not good but not the worst ever. The ribs and roll are what killed me which reminds me that I need to check before I eat any fast food or I will regret it.
On another note, work sucked...it was super busy and in the haste of chopping tomatoes I sliced a chunk of my thumb which proceeded to bleed for an annoyingly long time. Oh well, at least I got a workout running around the store for 5 hours trying to keep up.
Well Till tomorrow my loyal non-readers, I'm gonna chill and watch "The Devil Wears Prada", good night.

Weight Loss and such

So as I said in an earlier post, I got to get back in the grove of working out. Ive got my diet almost back on track which im proud of, still a huge struggle but at least I'm sticking with it and not giving up if I have a bad day here and there.
So I'm hoping that maybe if I keep a little journal on my blog maybe it will help me keep on track. Today was a really good day. I started my day with a lean cuisine breakfast pannini which I have decieded I dont like. I would rather just have three scambled eggs for less calories and sodium and I find them more filling.
Work was supper busy and I was running around like a mad man trying to keep the line moving. You see, I work the possition that two poeple usually do and I do it just as fast. So basically I got my workout just by doing my job. So when it was finally time for my break I had a ham sub with just ham tomato and two triangles of swiss (no dressing).
When I got home I had a Lean Cuisine dinner which was pretty good. It had mashed sweet potatoe which I love. Afterwords I crashed and fell asleep for a couple hours which was awsome, gotta love naps. Woke up, did a little yardwork and then had some cereal. So good day all around and just gotta keep it going. Im at around 258lbs right now so lets see if I can get to 245 by my San Francisco trip.

Movies you should see...

Here are some movies that I really love and you should see (Yeah, im tellin u what to do, deal)

Brick- Really cool murder mystery that takes place in high school

The Last Holiday- Kinda a silly movie but it always cheers me up

I Love You Man- Really funny Bromantic comedy, you will be quoting it all the time (plus Paul Rudd is hot)

Dazed and Confused- One of my all time favorates of all time, go rent it.

Songs I'm listening to.....

P!nk- I Dont Believe You

Michael Jackson- They dont care about us (Cant wait for the concert film in october)

The Temper Trap- Sweet Disposition

VAST - You're too young

Work

So works been sucky lately. My Boss has been talking shit about me for a while now which is completly unprofessional. I do my stupid sub making job well and better than anyone else that works there and I'm being treated like crap. I heard he was saying that he was sick of all my drama and that I was a spoiled kid who works for nothing in my life.
So I set up a meeting with him to sort stuff out and I guess it went well. He was really truthful and told me all the stuff I heard he was saying about me is true, not that made me feel better in any way. He appologized for sayin the stuff about me being spoiled. And when I ask him what drama he was talking about he said it was about me coming in on my days off here and there where I would buy food and talk to my co-workers for a little while. I honestly dont think this was a big deal and he was blowing it way out of porportion. So we sorted out a few other things and I hope he actually listened to me when I corrected him on things he thought was going on which were false.
Again, I feel a little better and hope this shit with him stops. He is a horrible boss (He didnt use to be) and I need to start looking for a new job. Good luck me.
