Yes, I know. Where the hell have I been! Well lets see,
1. Its hard to go and write a post everyday because I'm not always by a computer, some days the only time I get on the computer is late at night, and I don't want to write a post then.
2. I am so busy with school! This is my second to last semester, and the pressure is on, there is so much work, and not enough time in the world to do it.
3. I messed up last week and last weekend, I ate food that was totally off track. I didn't want to write it in the blog because I would feel bad.

So you're probably thinking, "Whats with all the excuses Shelby! Just get back into it!"
Well at least I'm where I was last week. All I really want to do is lose the 2 pounds per week. I feel like when you start your weight loss, all you want is to see the pounds just drop off, you want results and you want them now! But if I follow the goal of losing the 2 pounds per week, I will be at my goal weight just before my birthday, which makes me happy. Just slow and steady, no plateaus, no falling off the wagon like I just did.

I probably haven't stuck with my goals very well. I definitely haven't been posting much, I have been cheating myself saying that one thing is just as good as another which it probably isn't. I haven't gone to the gym once! And I haven't gone into Herbal Magic everyday! Hmmm, I think I'm just upset because it isn't going as fast as I wanted it to. Also, my friends aren't very good at learning when I say no, it means no! No to the drinks, no to the snacks, no to going out for sushi, for pizza, for chicken wings. Ugh! It would just be easier if I was a shut in, had no friends and no life. Then when I'm all nice and skinny, I would be like "Hello World!" haha. But life can't be that easy. Why do the best things have to be so hard! ugh!

Alright, enough complaining. I just had a really good lunch, good meaning good for me. But it was kinda tasty too haha. I'm going to post the recipe because I think everyone should make these. I've started a new page where I will post all my new recipes that I come by. As I go along I will post new tips and tricks that I think will help me through this challenge. 

Since Herbal Magic is closed tomorrow, I will weigh myself on my scale around noonish to see if I'm on the right trick to lose my 2 pounds per week! just 0.8 more to go.
