Day 6 of 142

I AM MINUS 50 LBS!!! Ahh!! Let me tell you, I weighed myself 6 times this AM! #1) 246.6. #2) 244.8 #3) 244.8 (post toothbrushing) #4 -#6) 245.4 Yay! I'm nearly halfway there!!! I dont know, I'm not as excited as I think I was before today, but I mean I guess I'm pumped. I mean minus 50 is a big deal. That's a lot of weight - esp. in 4 flippin months! I have already told myself it will probably take 6-8 months to lose 50 lbs again, but in the back of my head, i hope to be done 100 by July. Whatever. I'm not going to make myself crazy. I'm really just taking it one day at a time, one weigh in at a time. Thinking of anything more is overwhelming. Anywho, I have to get ready for work but I just wanted to celebrate!

12:22 pm
So I guess in the midst of my weigh in excitement I forgot my milk at home. So no raisin bran for me (boooo). I ended up just eating my banana & my fiber one bar. Crap. That annoys me. I am really praying today and tomorrow are filled with good news. So far, good news number one is out of the way with the weigh in. Now i am just praying for (what seems to be more important) good news #2 with my baby/car. I really hope its not something big! All the research I've been doing has made me uber nervous, but then again, I'm a natural worrier. Regardless, just pray for me people!!! I am so bored. I don't have anything to do here at work. I am going to work out after I get off and I have no idea what I'm going to do. I don't really feel like doing the Arc Trainer or the Elliptical or the treadmill. I don't feel like doing anything for that matter. I think I am going to do the Elliptical and just push it to the limit. Who knows. BLAH I NEED SOMETHING TO DO!

1;15pm
So friend called and the guy at Auto Zone said that Cylinder 6 was misfiring which pretty much = tune up. Hopefully i don't have to get a diagnostic test still. I'm going to call the mechanic guy today and see if I still need to get one because I really don't want to if i don't have to. So I'm pumped to get my baby fixed now! it could be something else, but as my mom says "claim it and its yours". SO ITS JUST GOING TO BE A TUNE UP DANG IT! Despite forgetting my milk, today is a good day. I feel really good. Yay.

3:00 pm
I found a new place to take my car. The diagnostic scan is cheaper ($20 cheaper to be exact) and students get a 10% discount! Yay. I think after I pick up my check tomorrow I am going to take my baby in so we can get her fixed and ready to go! He said that, at most, it would take 2 hours to fix. That's not bad at all. I'm loving life today. Hopefully fixing my baby won't be too bad, I'm just anxious to know the damage! I texted my daddy this AM about my weight and he said - exact response - "Awesome. I am very proud of you. Continued success towards a healthy lifestyle is something we all should strive for.Have a great day cutie. Love you. Dad" Of course, he has to get all big worded about everything, but I was really happy to see that nonetheless. My mom, of course, had something...interesting to say. She says "Great job. I lost my mind, does that count?" You gotta love that woman. I feel like today is my birthday or something! LoL It's like a rebirth! It's funny because sometimes I get these feelings of being overwhelmed and "I can't do this" but then I remember, "just one day at a time" and that keeps me pushing. I have to stay focused on my food and not "eat what i want" just becuase I've lost 50 lbs. LoL I've been thinking the crazy's today. 50 lbs makes you go loco. I can't remember who, but someone said I should go to the store and pick up a bag of dog food just to pick up how much i've lost and i really want to do that. I'm pretty pumped to go work out. Not really, but I'm trying to get myself pumped. Alright, to more internet hopping.
