Dead at 40
Saturday, November 11th 2006
Yesterday, an R&B legend - Gerald Levert - died at the ripe age of 40 due to a heart attack. Its so sad that a man of such raw talent and charisma passed away at such a young age. You never realize how precious and unpredictable life is until life is unexpectedly taken away. His untimely death made me realize that, if I were to stay on the track I was on, I may have followed his footsteps. I'm 21, and i don't want to think that I could be halfway done with my life! MY father is 48 and he is ...Living Just Enough For The City

So tonight, I'm not doing too much of anything. I'm sitting in my room listening to some old school Stevie (hence the title of my blog). I've been really frustrated with buying food lately. It just seems so weird that you spend almost 2 times what you would spend normally on junk food when you're trying to buy "healthy" food. I can't wait til I start my 2nd job so I can finally have some disposable income! I got my nails done Firday (happy weight loss to me present) and they are GORGEO...Just another wild wednesday

Thanksgiving is coming up and I REALLY want to go home and look great for my mom! I want her to be like, "wow, Denita, I can see the progress". I keep getting worried that maybe I'm not eating enough calories and I don't really want to increase my calories because I'm not starving or anything. I eat 1200 to 1350 a day and it's not like I starve . I'm just stressing myself out I guess. I'm honestly petrified of hitting a plateau or having a week where I don't gain. That's honestly wha...Forums are great

So I posted on the Lots to Lose forum yedterday because I was fairly aggravated with the whole weight loss thing. Needless to say, a lot of the people gave me some great advice and it really reinvigorated me! Truth of the matter is, I feel great now. I don't have as much bak pain, my feet dont hurt in the morning, and I feel much better. I'm seeing results and I don't feel so out of control anymore. I feel empowered by my life to do better by myself and for others. I'm thinking about starting a ...Like an addict

This process is SO hard. I feel like I'm an addict and I'm trying not to give in to the drugs (not that I ever have been an addict - i'm watching "True Life, I'm a Meth Addict" ) . This is just so hard. I want to do this and succeed SO BAD, but it's just so hard. I hate being this size, I hate being fat, I hate that I let myself get here. I want to be a certain number SO bad I want to just be there tomorrow and this is just SUCH a LONG process. It's requiring me to dig so deep into my...
