Damn. I need to lose some weight.

I feel like it gets harder with age.

I'm currently a size 8 in pants. I would like to easily fit into a size 6 by my 25th birthday in June. Game on.

I've been exercising a ton -- spin twice a week, boot camp once a week, run about 3-4 times a week. I've also been eating healthier -- a lot of organic produce. However, I can't seem to lose the weight. In the past few months I've only managed to lose about 9 lbs.

I miss being a size 3/4 like I was in my picture. So far removed from my ed... I realize I'd never want to be smaller, but damn size 3/4 would be nice.

I just need to do a series of fasts, I think. Or something?

I'm really here looking for support. Is anyone out there?

Breakfast: Apple (95)
Lunch: 1 serving of romaine lettuce (15) 2 tblspns fat free honey dijon (50)
Dinner: 2 eggs (140) 2 sausage (240) 1 toast (75)
Snack: 1/2 turkey sandwich (105)

Total: 414 calories

I think I'm getting back into the hang of this...
There I go again... Not updating for days on end. This week has been pretty good thus far.

I had slightly under 1,200 calories today and went for a 2 mile jog.

That's all I can say right now.

I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever get this right.

I had a bit of initial weight loss - my jeans definitely need a belt - but I got stuck. I never continued in my progress, just maintained. So, I'm back.

In other news, I'm really tired of how shitty people can be. I feel like I constantly try to be good to people and help them and the favor is absolutely not returned.

Also, I have no friends. Out of my group of friends- 3 live too far away, 1 lost her effing mind, and 1 has become depressed and hates the world. This leaves me with literally ONE semi-solid girlfriend. I'm starting to wonder if I'll ever have a solid, awesome relationship with anyone again- other than my husband, of course. Maybe that's the trade off - ridiculously good husband, no friends. I'm "friends" with people I work with, but not like... go out for drinks, go to a move, discuss life type of friends. And basically, work and home are the only places I go. SIGH.

I'm starting to think that my lack of confidence plays a part in this. I've been working hard for a week now to reverse that. Maybe this is just a life-long process for me... for all of us.

B: popcorn ball (100) special k (90) coffee w/ hazelnut cream (10)
L: spinach leaves (20) iceburg (15) 1/4 cucumber (10ish?) fat free honey dijon (50) 1/4 tomato (6)
S: 15 almonds (104)

Water: 32/64 oz
Exercise: calisthenics

GOALS:
I will not weigh myself until November 3. On this date, I would like to be 140-145 lbs. I have no idea how much I weigh right now, but anything more will devastate me.
Less than 1200 calories per day with exercise
At least 64 oz water
Exercise 6/7 days per week

Here I go again.

I'm finding it so hard to find the time to update...
I'm going to start over. I can't even remember what day I'm on and I didn't do well at all yesterday.

Today I had:
1 French Bread Pizza (360)
1/2 Taco Cabana Burrito (330) Chips and Salsa (200)
Broccoli and Cheese (90)
Coke (140)
Total: 1,120

Obviously, I didn't eat well, but I stayed under my calories and intend on a walk/jog in a few minutes. So I'm counting it as a good day.

DAY 1 of 60
