My wonderful friend has sold me a laptop of hers, which makes me happy in a myriad of areas. This helps me with access to my bills, school and updating this lovely little blog. :D
I am nowhere near the goal I had set for myself come my birthday. My birthday has come and passed and I am actually a tad heavier than I was. This does not make me happy....however, at the same time I don't have anything or anyone to blame but myself.
I no longer have Alpha or Beta as my trainer(s). Somehow I always end up with really knowledgeable trainers with smart mouths that don't do well with management. One gets fired and the other gets kicked out. Neither are doing personal training anymore and now I'm back at square 1. I had this conversation with my sister and friend at lunch the other day. I am not a person who is self motivated....to a certain extent. I need that person to push me to do things that I don't think I can do or don't want to do. I have set up to try out a boxing/kickboxing gym but I think I might be better served at an overall gym- one that has other classes along with training. Basically like I had back when I was training at Gold's. I loved and am still friends with my trainer from there. Flakey and unreliable he could be but we worked well together- he worked for me. Life being what it is caused issues and things didn't end the way I had anticipated.
I am now getting a fire back...I'm feeling good about finding a new gym. Even if I don't get a trainer right away- getting back to a gym that has classes, like spinning (LOVE spinning). I need something to move me/excite me to get my rear end back in the gym. I KNOW I can and will do this.
NO MORE EXCUSES!
I have to gain some control. Right now I feel like I have no set control on anything going on right now. I am waiting to hear from school to see if I've been accepted into the Veterinary Technician program. I want this so bad. It was a bit of a confirmation when I had my review and one of the doctors told me- it's great that I have all this experience, probably too much experience. I tend to give too much information over the phone of things people can do at home and not making it a priority to bring them in for appointments. Anywho- that's weighing on my mind and generically my pocket. I am working 2 jobs and even though the one job is just once a week it's killing my schedule. I can't quit though....need the $. At the same time this once a week job makes me feel slightly social.
While trying to get things set up on here I found my old Photobucket account, which had this picture stored:
This was taken before a friend's wedding. This guy was nice enough to go with me- good friend and I miss him. I have been having this overwhelming, sadness I guess I'll go with. Missing some friends I haven't seen or talked to in a long time. I have no social life- maybe that's what happens when you grow up, are an adult. You have the people you work with and the friends you see or talk to from time to time. I think that's also part of why I get invested in gyms and trainers- another social outlet.
Alright enough of my rambling/venting. I'll be sure to plan out a better update for the next one- I was just wanting to get something written to get into the habit again.

The Never-ending Battle
Ok....so....I officially suck. I am 10 days away from my birthday (the big 3-1 if you were wondering). Which I am assured by a friend that 31 will be okay- he's making it to 32 alright. :)
Not only have I not lost the weight I wanted to- I think I went up a tad. My muscles are getting stronger- which leads me to my next conundrum: am I having a hard time losing weight because of my habits/body changing or because I'm strengthening and working with weights?!?!?
Forgive the tantrum I'm about to have. I am very aware that I just have to reign in the crazy "Fat Monica". I keep getting on this damn horse and falling off. I know what it's like to ride the horse and it is glorious. Now I just have to remember how to stay on the horse...how I did it in the past. I know I let my will power dissolve but I know it's still in here somewhere. I just wish I was done with this battle. Food should not be something I'm think locked into. It is something that I should just use as fuel and not be so wrapped up in it.
I have Sunday and Monday off- I will be prepping all food for the week. When I am prepped and ready I do so much better and my will power is a bit stronger. Then I will be putting a picture of me from when I was skinnier on my lock screen. I just so desperately want to get the drive I had back!!
Other than this issue everything else is glorious. The day practice is fantastic- love everyone, no stress. Emergency practice is drama central but one day a week I can handle it. Trainer #2 - Beta - makes me feel old with him being all of 22. :/ He's fun though- entertaining which is what I need when I'm training. Anything to keep me occupied on something other than my body falling apart.
Working so much has it's down falls- even though it helps my bills. Like tonight- I missed a birthday gathering for my friend, which really sucks. Making things a bit worse I'll be alone for my birthday weekend as my family is going out of town. Not that I'm huge into birthdays- I'm used to just doing dinners but normally I have people. Not this year. I'm really hoping these things are not a precursor into the year I have coming for 31. That would really be no bueno.
Enough whining and rambling on about nothing....until next update!
