Weight Loss Journey

So for the past year and half I have been on a rollercoaster of a weightloss journey, not unlike many women in the world. I began my weight loss journey in December of 2011. I started off weighing at a hot 215lbs. And boy did I love food. Who am I kidding, I still LOVE food. I know that some people have addictions for drugs and alcohol, but my addiction is for sure food. In Decemeber of 2011 I started working out and eating better by June of 2012 I weight 175, which means i had lost 40lbs! Go me! But with the distractions and road blocks in life, I ended up gaining back 15 lbs. I am now on my way to getting down to 135! And I am determined. I started Herbalife a week ago and started off at 187, I weighed three days ago at 184. So three lbs down, unfortunately my body does not lose weight as fast as others, I work out everyday for over an hour, but my body just does not seem to lose pundage, maybe it is losing inches? I hope my blog will inspire you to be the best you, that you can be! Happy Friday! -Kate

Here and Now

Well alot has happened in this little life of mine. I will be starting my "Big Girl" job this coming Thursday. I am very nervous because no one wants to screw up, but I know eventually it will happen. Wahhhh! I am scared of failure, which is inevitable. As far as the love life goes, there is none, of course. I do not know at what point does someone become acceptable to the male specimen to date, but obviously I have not reached that stage of maturity. Some places I want to travel within the next 5 years Greece Spain Rome Australia See ya later gators!

Life, or Something Like It

Lately I have been finding myself questioning everything, where should I live?.... What should I do? With school wrapping up, confusion is nothing short of present. And along with all of the confusion comes the extra lbs I have added on this semester. It sucks to gain wait. I feel weighed down, and put don. Exhaustion is with those who eat alot. Which I believe now. What does the future hold? I have no clue. But when I find out, I will let you know.

October Baby to January May be..

Tonight I had some friends over and we watched October Baby. It was a wonderful movie about a girl who finds out that she was adopted. And that her birth mother attempted to have an abortion but the abortion failed.She learned that she had a twin brother but that he had died three months after birth. The movie was about "Hannah" figuring out who she is while falling in love and making mistakes. It was so good. I give it four stars! .........I also found out that my cousin,Shelbi, is having twins!! I am beyond excited and can not wait to see what is in store for her. Meanwhile I feel so confused about my feelings. I can't seem to get over someone who hurt me. I find myself not being in love until I see him. I hate and love to see him. When I see him I find myself just wishing he would grab me, pull me into his arms and tell me everything will be ok. I shouldn't still care about him. I want to hate him so much. I do hate that he used me and chose not to be with me but with someone else. I shouldn't want to be with someone like that. But I can't help it. I can't help that when I see him my face turns bright red, and I feel like it's just me and him there. Like we are the only one's in the room although there may be one hundred. I miss him being my friend, holding my hand, and threatening to beat up the bad guys. I miss that guy who said he would steal a monkey, elephant, and sloth. All because I wanted them. I miss him. q

safe haven

I post too many things on Facebook so Im going to try and post more on my blog. I'm still just letting life pull me along as I go. I'm not in love but I know I'm scared to be. I find that journalism calls my name everyday. It's my safe haven. The place I run too.

I have lost the picture.

So I have lost the infamous picture. So needless to say I shall not be writing my blog over it any longer. I also felt like a douche bag for saying what I did about the previous person I interviewed so I deleted what I posted. I feel like I have come at a cross roads in life. I am at that moment when I am not sure what I want to be doing. Which is ironic I must say. I feel like my whole childhood I wanted to grow up and become this awesome person. I had my whole life planned out. I would go to Harvard, be in a sorority, and go to law school where I would meet my handsome husband and we would have beautiful children. Needless to say that is not exactly how my life has panned out. I did not go to Harvard, nor am I in a sorority. I do not plan on going to law school and I do not even have a boyfriend nor have I had one in a very long time. Where am I at in life.... Well I go to a primarily women's university. Where I am involved with Student Government and I work on campus. I now would like to adopt a baby from Africa or some third world country. I want to make a difference. Not just a statement. I want to travel the world. Maybe even dig up old bones. Who knows, I have no clue. All I know is that I want to be adventurous. Even though I am not sure where that leads me. But isn't that the whole point of being adventurous? The whole idea is not knowing where you are going.

The history of The Photo

Let me first begin by telling you how I have obtained this very large picture of myself.I work at a place called Sears. Yes I know, how exciting. I work for the human resources department as an office associate. There is also a portrait studio in sears. One bright boring day at Sears the ladies at the portrait studio needed one more person to take pictures of so I was volunteered. Me, being the goofy person I am, thought this was the perfect opportunity for me to get away from work. So we took several pictures. Some serious and some funny, but mostly goofy. I was told that I could pick from one picture and I would receive that one for free. So of course I picked the goofiest one. I was expecting this picture to be the size of a piece of paper. Little did I know that it would be the size of a poster. It was HUGE! The last couple of days I have been trying to figure out what I am going to do with the abnormally large photo of myself. Should I give it to my mom?... Naww. Mammy... No. I have had many friends that asked if they could have it. But after several ideas being thrown around, I have came to a conclusion. With the help of my roommate I have decided that I am going to take pictures of people holding my HUGE picture. Weird?.. possibly. But I am also going to have them tell me their story. Which I am going to post on this page. Then They get to sign my picture. So from now on that is what this blog will consist of. ENJOY!
