I guess I'll jump on the "October Goals Revisited"...
October Goals:
-hit 140. I haven’t seen that since I was 16. It’s been four years, its about time I see that again. Yeah…no. I did lose like 5 pounds though.
-limit myself to one soda a week. tops. avoid completely if possible. I think I made good on this, barely have had any all month. Helps that I’m broke..
-get a completely HOT Halloween costume. And wear it this year. Check!...

Bread+Water= My two best friends right now.
Went to Denver last night with my best friend, got into clubs with her sugar daddy-type guy, drank.. I don’t know, a long island iced tea, 2 washington apples, and something with 151. I got fucked up.
Got home, I ended up locking myself out of my room, slept in my roommate’s bed, then now this morning my friend broke into my room for me, and my door’s like ripped in half-ish....
efffffffffffffffffffff
I still need to go to the gym.
and shower.
and do my hair.
and go by my family’s party tonight.
and eat.
and drive to denver for the night. And It’s almost 7pm.
Confession:
I just lost all interest to party tonight for some reason. No idea why, but now I’m all meh about everything. I went and partied in Boulder last night which was great, but now.. Idk. I’m still going to go out, but.. don’t really feel like it.
Caribou Lou
By Tech N9ne is my current favorite song.
I like listening to it for everything- parties, chilling, workouts, it’s awesome. :)

Ok so
diamond-dreams:
I text you and ask “so what are you doing?”
You say “nothing much.”
NO
I ACTUALLY WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU’RE DOING.
FUCK.
Can't wait until February...
It’s going to be fantastic. :)
I really need a hug right now.
I don’t understand why I’m as upset about this as I am.
I think Thursday nights are Dirty Slut Thursdays...
Some people are thirsty on Thursdays, here, they bring sluts. I wish her presence didn’t bother me so much. Someone should distract me :)

Went to the gym tonight!
I only ran 2 miles because my right ankle started hurting, did it in 23:44. Meh.
However, I had the pleasure of running into some guys I went to high school with at the gym, and we hung out and talked while I watched them play basketball. Apparently I’m going to go paintballing, and to this group thing with them next week before we go to the gym. And I’ve *almost* got one of them to...
Hurray!
Both my Halloween costume and my “Do Life” shirt came in today. Pictures after I come back from the gym! :)
Oh Gossip Girl..

My roommates are jerks.
They say I have no ass :( I do too! I think..
Idk.
Making my room extra cozy
Pictures to come :)
This is why I workout at 1am..
I just weighed myself and am at 156.2.
I was sure that I was going to go back to 160, because of lifting yesterday and waking up to late, just for kicks decided to weigh myself anyway, but I guess I did good :) Helps that I even met my water goal and everything! I’m excited..
Success!
4 miles, 46 minutes and 15 seconds. Not bad at all, considering that was about my time when I did my first 5k 3 years ago in high school. I was so tired, but I was like, “Okay, I’ll run for three minutes, then I’ll take a break..” and just kept making deals with my body that I only had to deal with it a little longer. Pretty happy with myself, even if I am a crazy person...

I still need to go to the gym again today..
But it’s sooooo cold outside and my room is all warm and cozy and the minute I walk out of it I freeze! I don’t wanna!
What is everyone's fascination with Greek yogurt?...
I hear people talk about it all the time, using it in their food and everything, but, yeah. I’d like to be in on it if it’s any good.

weightlossismygoal:
Waking up to am empty iPhone because there was an error while updating to 4.0. Or seeing a pic of myself on Facebook taken yesterday. I’ve decided to change my weigh-ins to Friday. I feel like it’s the end of the week and that’ll be more motivation to eat well over the weekend. That’s one of my many downfalls.
The same thing happened to me when I updated my iPhone to 4.0!...
I can't wait for the day where someone comes up to...
It’s just a matter of getting there now :)

I really felt this coming on yesterday, I’ve been good with my workouts, yesterday I exceeded my 10 cups of water a day goal (just by a cup but still! And it seems I get thirstier with the more water I drink).
Finally the scale changed! Man I’ve been tired of seeing 159-161 these...
I should be doing something productive..
like playing video games :)
So earlier I posted that I wasn't feeling too...
But then I went to the gym. And did HIIT for 3.1 miles. In 38 minutes. I was completely drenched in sweat and was like the brightest shade of red I’d ever seen myself, but it made me feel soooo much better. It was a really hard workout, but making myself go to the gym and everything seemed to fix me :)

Agreed :D
Tumblr Tuesday!
So I’ve always recommended people every week, but I’ve never actually posted about it, so here goes.
This week I’m recommending Madelynn.
She’s fantastic and beautiful and really cool and she just recently hit the mark of losing NINETY POUNDS! She’s great and everyone should follow her :)
Oh, and I feel like I should also post my “Tumblr crushes”

I forgot to set my alarm for this morning..
So I ended getting up at 7 causing me to miss my early morning workout :/
Oh well, I’ll do it after work which is as close to morning as it’s going to get today. Then I’ll workout later tonight again.
And I’ve got ballet today :)
Off to the gym! Again!

Got up at 6am today!
I was very productive at the gym this morning, ran a mile on the treadmill and did almost my entire arm workout for the day :)
Post workout, I made a strawberry-blueberry green monster with almond milk and vanilla soy protein and ground flax seed- gross. I’m still trying to finish it.
And this is the day I was greeted with, kinda gloomy but nice :)
Goals for this week:
-drink 10 cups of water every day
-workout 2x a day every day, morning and night
-have a smoothie every day
-NO fast food!
-get sexy boots for my Halloween costume!
It’s going to be a good week. :)
Ordered my Halloween costume online!
Obviously I’m not going to look anything like that, but that’s the one I ordered! Hopefully it gets here on time, I paid 9 bucks for expedited shipping.. What color boots do I wear with this now?

New Green Monster!
ish.
It was what I usually do:
1 1/4 cup almond milk
4 strawberries (this time frozen)
mango chunks
pineapple chunks
spinach
spoonful of ground flax seed
and what I added that was new, a scoop of whole foods brand vanilla soy protein powder.
It has a strange taste to it, I think I put too much protein powder, next time I’ll do a half scoop of it. But not bad. I can drink...

What is it with the boys I hang out with having...
I went outside and one of my roommates’ cars had written on the back: “for a good time call [insert my phone number here]” WHAT THE HELL? Rumor has it that originally it had his phone number, and that my roommate whose car it was changed it to my phone number. Not even cool. This was triggered by the dumb pledges and my stupid roommates. Again. Grow the fuck up already!!

Went to the gym!
Got there by 1am. So when I got into the locker room to change, there was this hobo/bag lady in there and she just had like 50 of those reusable bags for the grocery store, it was really strange. The gym people eventually called the cops in.
So I went, ran on the treadmill, and lifted weights. And it only took an hour and a half, usually I take much longer.
So on the treadmill, I ran the...
