Weigh-in Wednesday May 12

I know I am posting this late. But bear with me I only just decided to start this up again.

Current Weight: 306.6
Time of Weigh-In: 12:39 am Wednesday Night/Thursday Morning

Thoughts: Ee Gads things have got to change. Maybe doing a fast food fast....no fast food!!

Something I wrote back in February

I am 24 and about to restart my life. I am going to be moving in with my brother and sister-in-law and returning back to school. I will be starting school full time in the fall. Studying what, I really do not know yet, I already have a BA in Education. I got two jobs in education teaching science and now with almost only one more querter to go in the school year, I am resigning my position. There are a lot of factors that went into this descision, that I will explain in a later post.

Another thing that I will be doing is focusing on losing weight. I weigh nearly 300 pounds and I am only 5'2. Meaning I am big round and fat. I have nearly always been overweight in my teens but never to this extreme. I have done some things to try to lose the weight. I even went to a camp where I lost 40 pounds but then I eventually regained it. Yet, because of the camp I know what I need to do in order to lose the weight. Even with those tools I am taking the steps to have lap band surgery. My first appointment is on March 5th.

I have also become inactive in my church, I am a latter-day saint or better known as Mormon. It was a slow process with many factors. But with me starting over with school I plan to restart with church. I need to reaffrim my knowledge of the church and actually better practice it.

The one thing that has not changed is my love of literature. I read about anything. I have been keeping track of the books I read in a year since 2007. Each year I have read 100+ books. Now I did not read all of them, about half of them I listened, but I still consider listening to a book as being read. My goal this year is to read all of them Printz award and honor books. The Printz is an award given to the best of young adult litrature, given since 2001.

So what should be expected from this blog:

  • Weigh in Wednesday: I will post my weight and hopefully how much I have lost.
  • Thursday Review: I will post a review about a recent movie or book.
  • Finish it Friday: I will be posting goals of projects that I want to finish over the weekend i.e. mainly Saturday and post the results on Monday.

For now that seems enough. That does not mean that every now and then I post something that I find or type up some of my rambling thoughts.
