I'm eating popcorn...again.
Sure, that might be dinner cooking in the crock pot, but that's not for a couple more hours, and I never get full.
I haven't slept in 32 hours now, I stayed up all night doing homework (which I did wrong), studying for exams next week, brainstormed ideas for my sister on how to get her dog back. Not to mention that parade yesterday.
It's the end of my freshman year, and i've worked HARD.
If I want some popcorn, the world WILL stand back while I get my popcorn.
LOL.
Oh, and funny thing...while I was waiting for my popcorn to cook I stepped on the scale.
I've now OFFICIALLY hit 40lbs lost.
150 now.
Before when I was saying 40lbs it was really like 38.
Yay for me.
I don't really even eat that healthy...well, sorta. I just don't eat as much as I used to. I'm on the go a lot more too.
I'm proud of myself. It's SO worth it.
40lbs in a year doesn't sound like much, but when it comes to losing weight, slow and steady usually DOES win the race.
I didn't want to be the fat big brother. I didn't want to be the overweight babysitter taking a break from riding bikes. I don't want to be the fat dad who doesn't have the energy to be with his kids.
I don't want to be the fat guy with high blood pressure and diabetes.
And i'm NOT going to be that guy. I'm NOT going to be that dad, that babysitter, and that brother.
It's been a great battle of blood, sweat, and tears. I look forward to fighting it for the rest of my life, because Pepsi and McDonalds are NOT going to win. We love you Ronald, but you're killing us. Please go away.
My outer energy now matches my inner energy, so look out world!

, it's not so easy for me. Put in a lot of hard work to lose 20 lbs. last year, but now I've managed to put about half of it back on. So it's back on the exercise and watching what I eat plan. I try not to say "diet," just trying to make better food choices.
