Day 4

This morning I missed my workout because I was at my parent's house out of town. I guess you could say it was sort of a cheat day, but I did do relaxing yoga for about twenty minutes this evening, so it wasn't a total loss. For breakfast I had four leftover nachos with salsa, lettuce, and sour cream. For lunch I had a slice of Sam's Club pepperoni pizza with red pepper flakes and Parmesan cheese. I drank a combination of lemonade, green tea, coke, and sprite with my lunch. For dinner I had a chopped chicken Cobb salad and a parfait. I felt a lot less sore today, although I'm welcoming that feeling again soon. I weighed myself on my mom's scale (which is a fancy one) and I came in at 238.4 lbs. I know that I should weigh myself once a week on the same scale for more accurate readings, but it was really nice to see a number in the 230s, because it has been way too long since I have seen one.

I also wanted to mention that I have decided to adjust my weight loss goals. My first big goal is to be at 220 pounds by June 4th. (That's 21 lbs. lost). If I meet my goal by that deadline I will reward myself with my first tattoo, "Soy Tuyo" on the back of m neck. My next goal is to weigh 199 pounds by my 21st birthday (42 lbs. lost). If I meet this goal I plan to get a tattoo of a key on my right foot. Goal number three is to weigh 181 pounds by December 10, a weight loss of 60 lbs. If I meet this goal I plan to buy every season of How I Met Your Mother on DVD. My final goal is to be 160 lbs. by March 18, 2013, with a total weight loss of 81 lbs! If I meet this goal I plan to go on a mini shopping spree and buy an entire new wardrobe. If I don't meet a goal, I don't get the reward, but if I meet a goal weight early, I plan to reward myself early as well. This a big challenge to take on, and its going to take a year to accomplish, but I believe in myself, and I know that I can do this!
