the purpose of my journey on here for me is to support everyone who supports me and to lose the rest of the weight. i will be an inspiration to myself and that is what matters. i will not be influenced by others negativity on my choices because i know i am healthy. i am still losing. i know that i have the dedication and determination to do this on my own. once i lose the 16 lbs i have left i will get off of this site, and will communicate with the friends i have made by phone, email text etc.

this site has totally changed. it has become cult like. people occupy this site who have nothing better to do than to put others down and cause drama. i have enough drama and things going on in my life than to blast others, shame others, and put others efforts down. Everyone is here for a reason-to lose the weight. if you dont have anything to say to someone then dont. and i faltered in this a while ago when i got angry and expressed my emotions. I do not regret what i did and do not feel sorry. i stand behind what i said, but i do know that this site brings me stresses that it did not 6 months ago.

6 months ago i could sign on here and read nothing but positivity. people didnt critisize on blogs, or put others down, or discourage them. i got sucked into these efforts and adapted to it myself, and changed. this is not me. i am not the person to shame others and this site changed how i conduct myself. and that is what i am ashamed of.

so, for those of you who ive formed a strong bond with, i will continue to support and be there for you. i want nothing more than for you to succeed.

for those new people ive connected to, im still here to reach out to. but i need to focus on myself and this challenge that i opened up to anyone who wanted to join turned out to stab me in the back. i wanted nothing but good things from this, i wanted to give others a reason to move in the right direction.

i should have just focused on myself and stuck to what was best for me, but instead i tried to help motivate others and got negativity. again.

so i apologize to those who had to bear witness to my behavior, for that is truly who i am sorry to. but to those who i spoke the truth about i hold no remorse and will move on with my life.

best wishes to everybody.

Today my goal is to eat 1100 calories. and not go over. i want to get as close to that amount as possible. tomorrow will be easier, i get 1900 calories.

my goal for this 30 days is to lose 6 lbs. i weighed in today and i am at 161.4 (but i start my period tomorrow) so im sure im a little higher than usual.

i will weigh myself every monday now for this challenge since we start on a monday. im happy to be doing this and am highly motivated!!!

whoever is doing this with elisha and I you can just post on here what you did for the day and we will support each other!

We have decided to do a 30 day challenge to be prepared for halloween! we want to look our best! This will be a blog based challenge rather than a forum based.

here is a link to the website and the document that i would recommend downloading.

anyone who wants to join us is very welcome! if you need help figuring out how many calories you should do for your zig zag, let me know!! email me!.

and it would be nice if anyone who wants to join would post here and let us know your 30 day weight goal. that way we can root everyone on who is serious about doing this, and see how everyone does!

i boiled asparagus and chopped carrots with some garlic salt and southwest seasonings. then i marinated pork chops in andria’s steak sauce (an illinois thing) and super smokers bbq (a midwest thing), and cooked it in a skillet, and it is YUM! delicious! and it only took me 30 minutes to make this delicious dinner!

last night poetry and i worked our butts off at the gym. HARD! my body is sore today! We shall do it again next tuesday too!

this weekend im going to visit my old college. its about 3 1/2 hours away. it should be fun but diet for sure is off for the weekend. i will be going out with my old friends and im just gonna enjoy myself! first time up there being 21!

hope everyones having a great wednesday!
