Peeeeeeeeeeeee

So how much water did I drink today? Almost a darn gallon! Giving up soda and caffeine may be healthy for me but I may have a weird reaction to the withdrawals. Like being sleepy...zzzzz....opps. Sorry. I had no soda today. I wanted to, but I didn't. I am going on the Cambridge diet with my friend Kim. I need it to work, not just for my health (which is the main reason why, by the way), but because I want to be ready for Hawaii when I move there next summer.

So on the list of things to do:
*buy an excersise ball and those stretchy rubber band things.
*buy an iPod and put lots of high energy music to keep me going through my work-outs.
*buy a goal dress or outfit.
*send away for a Swell catalog for said goal outfit.
*maybe buy a Pilates DVD and add it to my morning walk.
*a refillable water bottle that doesn't leak.
*buy new walking/running shoes.

OH and I need to get a pass to the American Fork Fitness Center. It'd be a good investment if I went everyday on a year pass. It costs a lot less than Gold's or 24 Hour Fitness.

Anyway, I'm going to head to bed. I have a 6:30am wake up call.

Good night.

It's Okay to Be Sad

I'm sitting in my room nursing a 7-up because I ate too much cheese with my dinner. Being lactose sensitive, edging on completely intolerant, totally sucks. Sometimes dairy doesn't bother my stomach too much, but I guess eating cheese on a completely empty stomach wasn't the greatest idea but damn, that artichoke and spinach cheese dip was delicious. Was it worth it in the end? Meh..I could go either way at the moment. I just had a memory pop up of my first swig of raw cow milk. It was delicious and totally didn't make my stomach hurt. Anyhow, at lot has been swirling around my brain as of late. Here is a bullet list of the swirling mess: When I left UVU a little over 10 years ago, my GPA was a 1.95. When I came back in the fall I had to fill out a satisfactory academic progress (SAP) report thing to 1.) get my financial aid released, and 2.) promise to get a C or better for the remainder of my time at UVU. Well, I barely got a D in sociology 1010 class in the fa...

A Healthy Start

So, you know when the beginning of the new year rolls around and you recommit yourself to begin a healthier lifestyle and then you kind of crash and burn somewhere around the end of the month? Yeah...I've been there. Like every year of my my twenties. For some reason, the closer I get to turning 32 - yikes! when did that happen??? - the more I think about where I want my life to go, what I want to do, who I want to be...you get the point. Almost a week ago, I started exercising every day with just one rest day a week. Today - Saturday - is my rest day. It also is my sugar day. Anyhow, last Sunday I was sitting in my room perusing Pinterest. I was coming off a graveyard shift sleep the daylight hours away stint and I was bored. I said to myself, "You should do something healthy today. You've slept all day and have energy to burn." Somehow I ended up on this wall exercise chart thing on a friend's board and I thought, I can do this. It's quiet. I won't wake...

Things I Don't Talk About Much

"I have learned that we feel like a failure when we make mistakes even when we profess a belief that the purpose of this existence is to make and learn from them." Growing up in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, I have had this belief that - as the quote says - we are here experiencing mortality to make mistakes and to learn from them so we can, eventually, become exalted beings and live with our Heavenly Father. In it's simplest form, that is why we're here. We have steps that we have to perform to attain such exaltation; faith, repentance, baptism, gift of the Holy Ghost, enduring to the end, temple ordinances...you get the point. The first three things I mentioned are always ongoing. We're baptized with water and every week with the sacrament, we renew those covenants. It's a time for reflection of what we've done during the week. What went wrong, what went right, what we need to work on.  Anyhow, growing up in the church, I fe...
