I used to be fat

Well so far not so good on the resolutions hahahah but that's pretty much expected. I am having a hard time getting my sleep schedule in order. But i'm not giving up! I just recently saw a show on Mtv(I know I know) it's called "I used to be fat." I found it more inspiring than biggest loser and healthier. I used to get inspired after watching a biggest loser episode. Until it started turning into shameless product plugs and and people exercising until they puked. It just isn't healthy the way they do it. Those contestants, sure they lose the weight but they lose it too fast usually resulting in large amounts of extra sagging skin. Not to mention Jillian Michaels is a monster of a woman. On I used to be fat, it basically takes one individual. Usually someone 18 who just graduated high school who has had weight issues for a while and wants to change before going off to college. They get paired with one personal trainer who sets them up. They are given a giant calender with numbered pages for however many days they have left in summer to lose weight. Each day they rip a page to reveal the count down. It inspired me because I could actually relate to some of these people. Granted I've been out of high school for 7 years but I still share a lot of their struggles. But seeing that the two girls I've seen so far were much larger than I and the great results they had in a matter of months. Made me feel like I can really do this. Now if I can just get to bed before 5 am! uhg!
Here's the promo check out the show:

Happy 2011!


Happy New Years to All!!!!
Time for the resolutions we all fail to keep. I for one am going to try my best this year to keep mine. It's all about not setting the goal too high. Or setting one easy goal and one hard one. If you accomplish the easy one it might give you a extra boost of confidence and you can achieve the hard one. If that makes sense hahahah. For instance, this year my resolution is to quit being such a neigh sayer. I gripe a lot about whats wrong in my life. But haven't put much effort in fixing it. That can be easily fixed. The hard one is one everyone makes and never keeps. I need to get in shape! Uhg I'm so tired of being a fatty. And this year this has got to change. I need to get my sleep schedule under control again so I can start getting up and walking. I also need to get a job so that I can afford to buy healthier foods. The getting the job part might be a little harder than any of those. But I haven't given up yet! This new year will be better! Not to say 2010 was all bad. I did get married and what not. But it's also the year I got laid off :( But it's ok it's also the year I got out of that hole of a job. :D it's all about perspective. And this year I hope to be a more positive me. Here I come 2011!
