Day 1: Thoughts and Feelings

Feb 25, 2005 14:29

I had the hardest time pulling myself out of bed yet again. Eleven in the morning just seems to be my "time". It disheartened me a bit because I was thinking that my habit would be sleep/waking up etc. However, I've decided to not dive into this blindly, and instead take it slowly. So...

My Habits for the challenge are:64 or more ounces of water ( Read more... )

You will totally do this! I love theme parks too! I have been to Disney twice ;) There are no theme parks close to me, but I love to go!

yea, living in Florida kinda makes most people go all of the time :P I used to go constantly as a child and kind've got bored, but since my weight issues got so bad its been Sooo long. Plus I was always so afraid of not fitting or being made fun of. I didn't do half the fun things that were available.

Eee, its crazy how excited it makes me! To be able to make up for all this lost time.. just by losing weight, its insane!

I totally understand everything you wrote! I feel the same way about amusement parks.. it has been so long since I've been to Dorney Park(PA). We used to go at least once a year when I was younger. I would love to be able to go again. This past summer me and my friend went to a concert at Six Flags in NY and we had park admission as well but I didn't bother going to the park because I didn't want to deal with rides. I loved water rides.. never was one for roller coasters. I would love to get on the bumper cars and the cup ride. I've never been to Disney, was supposed to go when I was 13, but I chose to go to a concert instead.. I am glad I chose that. I mean, I could have fit on rides back then.. but I'd rather wait and go when I am tiny.. that way all I will have to worry about it being tall enough for the rides.. LOL ( ... )

Don't worry about long comments, I love it!

I think shyness can definitely be a way of wanting to not lose weight. I often get scared of having people like me more for my appearance, of being hurt, or having to deal more with people I don't really like.. but I try so hard to look past that because I realize - all people get hurt, all people are liked by others (even majorly overweight people), and its just an excuse that isn't really valid. Think of all the wonderful things that have nothing to do with those - fun places you don't have to worry about, comfy cheap clothes, things not breaking due to weight.. so much more.

*hugs* If that is an issue to help you not lose weight then you have to make sure you confront it. Originally that was my whole point of this journal - more about the emotional and mental difficulties with losing weight.. conquering them and getting past them to help me get to where I want to be physically ( ... )

I love your idea of water. I think tomorrow I'll start my own personal challenge to drink nothing but water all day...w/ one allowance... I also think my other challenge will be to keep my room clean. Very big indeed. lol. I'm trying to start small. Maybe if I accomplish these I can move on to the bigger stuff.

Yea, keeping my room clean is kinda on my list too ;p but itll never happen. I'm such a slacker.. but its not so dirty either so its not thattttt bad :)

Good luck with the challenges! :)
