It's almost summer time eeeee!

Hey friends :)

i am so proud to sit here and announce that i am officially 4 pounds down and it feels so gooooood! I realize four pounds isnt THAT much but.....





thats what five pounds looks like which i will hopefully be to by this time in a few days :) i celebrated my lesser weight by ordering some cheddar peppers at sonic (350 cal) and i am being completely honest when i say it was the best order of cheddar peppers ive ever had. I am continuing to make healthy choices and consume less which is a little more difficult while im at work from 4-9 during the week. I have made it a goal of mine to work for 5 days straight without any of the concession stand food- im currently sitting at 3 days in a row. While snooping around at the snack bar i've found 2 options that could be considered the "best" choice for a snack- kellogg's fruit snacks or a large dill pickle. The pickle is only 5 calories but i can't see myself ever intentionally eating one, you know? im not a huge giant pickle fan- its weird. I like never crave pickles. The fruit snacks are 200 calories per package (the serving size is 10 pieces at 80 calories, but i mean come on who can eat just 10 of those and stop themselves? not me) and are deliciously addictive, so most likely i will just limit myself to one of those if needed.

I also began doing a ton of arm lifts and ab workouts and have noticed a bigger difference in my body there :) not to mention it feels really good to be leaving the gym feeling accomplished about a workout for once. I am still very frustrated about my legs and how I cant do any lower lifts, but I have been using the treadmill more often... its just so boring -__-
oh and hey i am also far less pale than i was 2 weeks ago so yay another improvement lol gotta be looking good for formal next weekend- SO EXCITED.
The next mini goal i have decided to embark upon is sleep- this past week i havent gotten much of it and i am so lethargic feeling during the day, and i am even getting sick again so i think that if i could just manage to try for at least 8 hours a night from now on then i will be feeling much better about myself.

i was very uncertain whether or not to add some progressive photos but what the hell, if im gonna do this then i might as well do it all the way- here is me- officially 2 weeks in, 4 pounds down, and, while still not where i want to be, completely stoked to be seeing progress for the first time:

sooo...... yeah...... this is slightly awkward cause im not sure what to say other than the fact that i am very self conscious to be revealing these photos on this website. I dont have any intention of showing this blog to anyone but my zeta sisters, so if any of yall are seeing this- try not to show this to anyone else just yet please :/ i am using you guys as a tool to push me toward my goals and it really has helped me! I doubt the entire chapter reads this or even that half of the group does, but it gives me extra incentive to keep pushing myself. The mindset that ive had since starting this blog is that if im going to feel embarrassed or disappointed to blog about it later then maybe i shouldnt eat that, or maybe i really should work out one more time this week, etc. So thanks to those of you who have taken the time to read this and especially to those who have given me positive feedback- trust me, it goes a very long way.

i supposed i should get to some homework now so again, thanks for reading :) until next blog XOXO!
