Discovering Myself

I want to start a flexibility routine to gain a little bit more mobility in my joints. It’s not horrible, but it’s not good. I’m doing all of the other health stuff, just lagging on this one.

Alrighty, I’ll update this post when I find one that works for me.

Before I start, my friend said to give him a shout out!  So “friend” go sail your little boat in the rain!

Today I found a website http://www.hundredpushups.com and was like, well shit, I can do this!

So I passed it around to one co-worker and she was like, sure I’ll do this.  So I was like, well we can make it a healthy little competition, so pretty soon it got out to the whole office so we are all doing it.  Our official start date is Monday the 4th.  Monday the 4th is a very special day for me.  I don’t really do much on that very special day, but we’ll see what the day holds!  I know I have work! haha

So taking the information from the hundredpushups.com website I’m probably going to make one for situps.  That way I’ll get the whole thing in if I can’t make it to the gym.

YAY!

Well, I just saw some pictures because a mutual friend of ours sent me some pictures of a party he was at.  Yeah I never want to see him again.  He looked pretty awful too, I was surprised at how quickly people like that go down hill and fast.  Looks like he’s got a new somebody to mooch off of.  They’ll figure it out eventually.

Oh well, I’m better off and I have met a great guy.  Albeit farther away than I’d like… :)  It all works out.

It will be interesting to see how things work out because I know my friend will invite him to everything so I just won’t go to those things I suppose.  I’m meeting some worthwhile people anyway.

Karma is a bitch I suppose.  What a fucking loser!  Oh well, see ya.

Just think of it this way, had I not dated him and gone through all of that, I wouldn’t have met the guy I’m seeing now, so in a way, that fuckup helped me find a genuinely good guy!

I have found that I want dependability and reliability in people I associate with. Flakiness (not that I’m perfect about it) is just something I can’t stand.  I guess I have friends that tend to flake a lot right now.  And my ex used to just ditch me to go drink with random people when we had plans, so no more of that bullshit!

I think I’m developing a very dependable group of friends.  I appreciate them very much.  So, I need to run and get a haircut, get back home and clean and change, then make it to lunch all in 2 hours.  I think I can do it, but I need to get off my ass and get going. haha

Well, to whoever reads this, you should leave a comment or Write Me!

Place: El Azteca (with about 10 folks from the office.)

Meal: Lunch #2 with chicken and no cheese (That’s a chicken burrito with a little rice and beans.)

Drink: Water

*sigh*

I didn’t do that well for lunch today, but it wasn’t too bad. It’s Friday so SHUT IT!!! haha

I think cutting the cheese out made it ok. Might have been a lot of salt though.

Ok, so to keep myself on track I’m going to blog what and where I eat for lunch each day, since that’s the only meal that I eat aside from my shake in morning and night.

The co-workers wanted to go to lunch at a burger place near work.

Place: Fudruckers

Meal: Turkey Burger with Lettuce, pickles, jalapeños, and yellow mustard on a toasted white bun, with a side caesar salad.

Drink: Water

Place: A little Mexican restaurant on the south side of 285/Roswell road.

Meal: Steak fajita burrito, with side of rice and beans.

Drink: Water

So I need to come up with some personal development goals for the next 3 months. So here is what I came up with.

• Health and Body
• I want to be able to wear a size 32 pant and a small/medium t-shirt comfortably. Meaning that I don’t feel like I’m all poochy in them.
• I want to be able to run a 5k in a reasonable amount of time without stopping.
• I want to lose about 40 pounds. This one is flexible based on the size of my pants.
• I want to be able to do 3 sets of 30 pushups and pullups. Also, situps or crunches.
• Confidence
• For me this has to do with surrounding myself with positive people that validate me and my efforts. This is a little more difficult.
• I also need to know that I am great and all that stuff. So this one will evolve over the next few months.
• I’m not down on myself, but I need to be more confident about who I am and that there are people out there that share my views and such.
• Relationships
• I want a healthy relationship or relationships with more friends and people that will encourage and empower me.
• That means, no buying people things, taking care of myself first, surrounding myself with positive and dependable people.
• Not being codependent. I’m not usually this way, so I don’t think that will be a huge issue.

I think those are reasonable goals. I’ll keep them updated weekly.
