Progress is good

When you aren't feeling very happy with your body, the last thing you should do is go try on clothes. Does anyone else who lives in Australia find it amazing how jeans are all sized differently? In one brand/style a size 12 is loose and fits nice, in another the size 14 is too tight. So frustrating!

But let us get to the good news. The report for yesterday is good. I did well for the first day, but could have exercised more. I ate 4651 KJ/1105 calories.

As for exercise I walked for around 30 minutes. I should have done more. I was going to walk home from the city, but decided it was too dark and cold. During the day it was beautiful though. I am thinking pretty seriously about walking right after I finish this entry.

On the writing front, I think I have a few ideas flowing. I think I will just write and worry about the details later, it seems better that way. And for those of you interested in my subject matter, it is actually going to be a novel based on bits and pieces from my life, with the majority of it being fictionalised.

I'm here to tell you that sizes in America can be very misleading, too. I think this is one of the reasons men don't understand how hard it is for women to shop. All sizes are not created equal!

Starting over

Hmm. Starting over is never easy. I'm on a new journey this time. I want to do this for different reasons. I want to do it for me. This week has been an okay one food wise, but I haven't been walking. I have had to suffer rain, but we needed it so it is hard to be mad about it. I know I may have lost a tiny bit of weight, but probably not much. Will weigh myself tomorrow. I had a few too many drinks still. BUT I swear I am trying! It is hard right now. I want to go to the doctor and request some weight-loss drugs. I don't think my doctor will give me them, and I know it is a weak way out, but I want the help. So don't judge me! Thanks so much for the support lately. Even the few of you who still check to see if I am around, your words mean a lot to me.

Do you want what you can't have?

On the way home from work I saw a girl with the figure I want, but will never have. She was young; I think probably around 16 or 17. She was tall with lean legs and she was wearing a pair of trendy short shorts with a t-shirt. She also had amazingly perfect large breasts. I admittedly stared for a moment at her because she didn't have one single blemish. She is so beautiful. I couldn't stop myself from thinking about how I will never be that thin, I will probably never wear short shorts, and I definitely will never have those boobs. I wish I didn't look longingly at the things other people have and envy them, but I do. But I don't think I am the only one.

Tweaking

So I've done some tweaking to the code. I now think it looks better in Firefox than IE because IE is not recognising the best font. It is too late right now for me to concern myself with this. At least most of us can actually read it. Also I have to create a new weight chart that is compatible with this design. Thanks a lot for the input. Firefox users, is it better now?
