So, in the summer I had a goal of getting into this pair of pants for a concert. Well, the concert was cancelled. I guess I let my motivation die with it. Although, now I feel like I got a lot of that back. Here I am back at college, I’m loving it here as I did last year. I’ve decided I want to look a little smaller before the next time I go home. That would be October, 15th. I would LOVE to be able to wear those pants home and walk in the door in them. Is that realistic, or not? (I currently wear a large 14/ small 16…. these pants are a size 10 but actually look bigger. I can get them on, they are tight, and I cannot fasten them.) Honestly, I wouldn’t be distraught if I couldn’t by then. If not October 15th, perhaps before Christmas Break. Either way, I really want to lose the weight.

Here at college they have a “Rec Center” complete with a cardio room. I’ll admit I’m new to the machines so I read the information on the panel. I apparently have taken a liking to the Elliptical. I cannot have heavy impact because it makes my legs sore, so I really like that the foot holds move with me. I’m more active at college anyway. I’m not exactly going to get into my car JUST to drive across campus…assuming I could miraculously find a parking space. The campus is beautiful and it’s worth the walk. Even if it is across the campus at 7:30. lol I’m also being really frugal. Honestly, flat out cheap…and kind of lame– to the dismay of my friends. I am looking for a job and have applied in three places thus far. A call at any time would be great, I appreciate prayers and good wishes. My parents are probably going to end up paying my first car payment. That is not how I wanted it to be, and I will most certainly pay them back. If I have to sneak it to them.

In other news I have another blog! http://thewheverblog.blogspot.com

I have finally decided to make a change in my life.  Why you ask?  I’ve always told myself throughout High School that I would be in shape before college.  Here it is the summer after my freshman year of college and I’ve stepped on the scale.  182….wait….182?  I mean yeah, I’ve always been a little chunky…but 182?  (According to my BMI that is only a few pounds short of obese for my height.)  I’ve been thinking to myself, “Girl. What are you doing?”

I have a hip condition that I was born with.  On the outside it just looks like I’m pigeon-toed.  (Most of the time being pigeon-toed is related to the knees, ankles, or feet.)  My hips are tilted, and the last 3 or 4 years it’s caused a lot of constant pain *unlike the random amount when I was younger* sometimes very sharp pains throughout the hip area.  I KNOW I need to loose wieght to get some of this pressure off of my hips-where coinsidentally–or maybe not– most of my wieght is carried.  I am almost 20…I’m worried about loosing my abillity to walk and if I can do something that could possibly help…I’m going to.  (Maybe I’m paranoid in this way.  I can’t help it…what else am I supposed to think?)  I’m not the most terrible off person in the world, there are people in situations physically that I cannot imagine, and I thank God for being able to do what I can.

So here’s to starting!

Also, if you look at my weight chart you will see that my mini-goal is on there.  I hope to reach that point by August 10th, 2009 because I’m going to a concert with my friend and it’s the week I begin moving back to college.

Hoping to make some friends so we can motivate each other!
