Rock steady

The waves keep on crashin' on me for some reason

Today I faced the scale. Definitely nervous, I was really super hoping to be out of the 200's. I ended up only melting away the 2.5lbs I had gained from my prior fiasco. I'm glad that I lost it, but I was hoping I had lost at least another pound. It's okay though, not like I gained anything.

They were confident at the office I'd be in the 100's by my next appointment, which is next Thursday. Buys me an extra day to melt some weight off. Actually, 2.5lbs isn't too shabby. My other nurse (I forget her name all the time, but she's super sweet) said 2.5lbs meant that I had lost 7,000 calories. 7,000! I was astonished! 3,500 calories=1lb. CRAZY! So, in terms of that I felt super kick ass about it!

Looking at my chart, I now have 3 logs at 200lbs. AR-BA-GAR. Next week, it for sure won't be there again. After I get into the 100's again, it'll all be a big boost I need to keep it off. I've been extremely sleep deprived this week. I even posted a status about going to bed early so I wouldn't be a mean girl at work the next day lol. You know those headaches you get where your scalp hurts? UGH, going on two days now and i'm positive it's because I'm not getting enough sleep. Usually on my weeks off, Wednesday is my day to sleep in and catch up. Alas, I had an early appointment and I'm kicking myself in the arse for it now!

Went to Best Buy today to pick up an AUX jack for my car. My old one (which measured 14" long jeez) was worn out and not working properly. While I was there, I scoped out the phones. I want a new phone so bad. So bad I'm beginning to convince myself I need one. I'm such a tech junkie! They didn't have any phones I was interested in, but Hello Kitty caught my eye. God, I LOVE HELLO KITTY.

Hello Kitty light up optical mouse

I didn't actually get her, but I told my sister about it. Hien is coming home soon, so we'll go get us super cute mice for our computers! The USB part of my optical mouse I have now is broken, so it's a good excuse to get another. I mean she lights up and she's floating in a bathtub at the bottom of the mouse! What's NOT to like?! She convinced me to wait for my phone purchase, that it would mean more rewarding myself after my goal. I'm the type of person that if I want or need something, I just go get it. So, I'm trying a new approach with my lifestyle. Refraining from impulsive retail spending, is definitely going to be harder than losing weight...
