I live in Missouri, and we usually don't get too much snow but this year has been the worse we've ever seen. I don't like the snow/cold much either, I'm more of a spring type person. I have heard from 9 companies, too bad they want me to relocate some where much further from where I live and that is something I will not do. The others, say I have too much experience lol. We'll see what I decide on.
And yes the working out really does change my mood, it makes me feel much better about myself.
Day 81
Been stuck inside the house all day with the whole family! I ate a bit too much, but glad my sister kept telling me to quit snacking on everything because I was bored lol
Its 5 35 in the morning. I snuck a peek at the scale, it says I'm down 2 pounds so far and its only Wednesday...omg I had to think about which day it was lol. Hopefully I can lose 1 or 2 more pounds by Saturday.
Today, I'm going to try even harder to not snack on everything I see. Being inside this house is driving me crazy! I just looked outside, yeah its pretty bad looking. Sigh. Oh well.
I'm in a weird mood right now blah, I over think too much. But that's okay, time to have some breakfast and maybe work out.
Have a great day, everyone.

It is only 10 53 and I'm so bored. Already spent about 2 hours on facebook, and lurked around here a lot and now I'm going crazy.
My little brother and sister are still a sleep, mom is at work, and dad is on the laptop. Already had breakfast = 3 eggs, mushrooms, with ketchup = 360 calories. Snack = special k, 1/2 skim milk and a banana because I was craving it = 255.
I guess I'll just go give Rex a bath or something. Wish I could take him out for a walk, but the snow is too high. Sigh. Stupid winter.

Day 82
8 20 in the morning.
Yesterday I cleared off all the ice on my car, took over half an hour and my hands froze but still, I'm glad I got out the house. Went shopping, bought new 'professional' clothes for job interviews...I even took pictures but don't like how I look so I'm most likely not going to post it. I have a job interview at 1 45, I'm kinda nervous for some reason. I spoke with the manager yesterday on the phone and we had a great laugh. She said she would love to meet me. If I get this job, its a huge company that makes billions every year and I went on their website and wow, just wow they met a lot of famous people.
Just watching the news, can't believe there is so much bad things going on in our world. Egypt...seriously? They are suppose to be peaceful. And now Australia...its pretty sad.
Food wise yesterday went well, hope today can be just as good.
I am all over the place in this post.

Day 90
Oh my, these days are flying by.
So everyday we go out to eat during lunch time for work, it sucks because that's a lot of calories. I also spend 6-7 hours everyday of walking outside since its part of my job and this cold is killing me but I know its helping me lose more calories.
Tomorrow is weigh in day, I also work tomorrow since I work 6 days a week. I'm not sure if I'll lose anything, maybe even a gain? We shall see tomorrow.

Okay well it says I gained 2lbs. But that's ok, because I know this is all new to me...the walking 6-8 hours a day and that's every single day so my calfs hurt and feet hurt everyday but that's ok, also I had a big dinner. I know I'm gaining muscle, since I can feel it. And I can fit into my clothes perfectly, and I couldn't before.
So, this walking is helping. I don't care what the scale says much anymore. I'm even thinking about weighing myself every month.
Oh, and me and the ex-bf are now just talking and becoming best friends and its working out perfectly.
I want to say I love how my life is going, but at the same time, I'm very stressed about learning so much about my job.

Day 94
9 57 in the evening.
I pretty much had a shitty day. I even broke down crying at work which now I'm embarassed about. This year is just not going well at all. I can't believe I cried ugh now how am I suppose to face all these people tomorrow. I just feel like crying again.

Don't know what day it is, I stopped counting I guess
9 53 in the evening
I'm tired of working 60 hours a week, the job is so damn stressful. I just have too much going on.
Not sure if I'll lose anything or gain. I drink 1 glass of water a day, sometimes a liter...but that's if I'm lucky enough to not be so busy that I can drink water. I'm hating life right now. I'm suppose to stay positive, but its hard.
