Day thirty-five.
So this is my last day of walking for 2009. I dunno why I like classifying everything I do today, under that. Lol, it made me wanna walk though, to make it the last I’d do of 2009. So yes, I walked for about an hour ten minutes today.
As far as eating goes: For breakfast I had a couple pieces of whole wheat toast (with honey), and a glass of juice.
For dinner my mom made these recipes out...

Hey Alex,
Came upon your blog and finished reading all the entries at one go! Was really good and motivational and makes me want to start walking everyday too! Reading your posts perks me up, keep posting!! ^^
Hii! Thank you very much. & If you want to walk everyday, you should! It actually feels so good, even if I really don’t want to go do it, lol.

“Pig out intelligently” that made me laugh, ahahah. That’s like, just what I need. Is the bacon good? And congrats btw, you’re doing so well. :)
Lol, well it tastes good to me. It doesn’t really look like it is on the package. It was really irritating trying to get out the pieces because they’ll peel/break apart. But to me, it honestly...

Day thirty-four.
Things I ate today: I had one egg, two pieces of fake bacon, and two pieces of whole wheat toast for breakfast. I was going to have left over soup for lunch, but that didn’t seem to work, as it wasn’t good anymore today, the crock pot made it go all mushy. :( For dinner I had one of my healthy choice meals again. I added some Parmesan cheese. For exercise: I did my regular walk,...
Day thirty-three.
Today was kind of slow and lacking. I didn’t really eat till like, 1 or so? and it was only because I was feeling faintish from not eating. So I ended up munching on way too much.
I had 3 mini bagels, the wheat kind, and some whole wheat toast. Ugh. I then ended up napping cause I didn’t feel good, then I woke up to it snowing, and I really didn’t wanna walk in that, so I...
Day thirty-two.
Today was so much better, thank god! Hopefully I won’t have anymore outbursts. D:
For starters I woke up, and felt like shit, my cheeks hurt so freaking bad. Well they hurt worse this morning then they do now, I was up for like.. an hour, then I ended up going back to bed ‘cause I didn’t feel good.
So I woke back up at noon, then went and ended up taking a shower, and my mom...

hi hi, I come on your site so often its a little stalkerish. :)
I feel like I’m living vicariously though your journey,
suggestions— I don’t really know what your preference of eggs are, but one egg yolk takes up 75% of your recommended cholesterol intake, so if you don’t really like the yolk anyway, opt for multiple eggwhites for a protein boost rather than an...

Hey there, i randomly came across your tumblr, and I just wanted to give you some encouragement! It sounds like you are working hard to stay on track and I wish you the best in pursuing a healthy lifestyle! You made me want to hit the treadmill- so off I go! =)
Haha, thank you for the encouragement and support. :)
Have any suggestions?

Day thirty-one.
Woo, it’s been a month. :D Tbh, today has been horrible. It’s not that anything bad has happened to make me be in such a horrible mood. I just seem to have some sort of pent up anger or something. I’ve shouted at my Mom twice, and I really had no reason, other than I just seem to be so angry. @_@ I should probably apologize, but I feel like a retard, and I couldn’t control...
Day thirty.
For notice, I have a cold and think I’m dying. Well that’s a bit drastic, I’m really not dying, I just don’t feel well. It’s a weak cold though, so I guess it’s okay.
Anyways, today I walked for about an hour and ten minutes (at 4.30pm), which is the first time in two days. Hopefully I’m getting back on track. I’m super excited knowing I’m at...

Weigh Day Week #4 (again).
12.26.09
Ok so it seems I have a little explaining to do. I was getting really sick of our scale as it’s not digital and I don’t trust it, (I really wasn’t pleased with gaining a pound, tbh). So today my Mom bought me a digital scale <3 and it seems I weigh 211, not 215. SO YAY. :}
Day twenty-nine (yesterday).
Yesterday we all know was Christmas, I don’t even recall half the stuff I ate.
I snacked on food over at my Uncles house, as that’s where we had Christmas dinner. For dinner I had mashed potatoes, brussel sprouts (gag), and a couple biscuits or whatever.
Dinner was fine other than the brussel sprouts. >_>
I just really need to stop overeating. Oh, and I didn’t work out...

Weigh Day Week #4.
12.25.09
This is a day late, but whatever. I weighed myself yesterday at about 9 or something like that, I don’t remember. & I weighed 215, so I gained a pound, I’m really not pleased. & Currently happy the Holidays are over just so I wont be overeating. Hopefully.
Day twenty-eight.
If we were in February, this would be a month!! :(
Ok, it’s Christmas Eve, so me being the lazy bastard I am, I did something different for my exercise. We’ll get to that in a minute.
For “breakfast” I had an apple, and drank my water, and had some of that chocolate Almond Breeze stuff.
For dinner, I had garden salad, and grilled zucchini & A GLASS OF HEAVEN. NORLY....
Day twenty-seven.
As far as good goes today, all I’ve had are two meals. Breakfast, and Dinner. I don’t recall eating anything else.
For breakfast, I had toast, eggs, and those fake sausage patty things, with a glass of juice. I don’t make eggs well, as you can tell. :P For dinner, I had a veggie delight from Subway. I think that’s what it was called. I had a 12”. Though really...
Day twenty-six.
Ok, so eating wise today:
For breakfast I had an apple sliced up. Then for a lunch snack I had chips & dip. For dinner, I had this tofu stir fry thing. It was good even though it had way too much ramen noodles, lol. (: For Exercise: I walked for about an hour and ten minutes, starting at 4.10. I’m glad I’m getting back on track.
Day twenty-five.
Today felt kind of blah, but whatever. I woke up and started trying to find the recovery disc or whatever it’s called for my old computer so I could reboot it for my mom, which took like 20 minutes to find.
Yay that I finally found it, and so I started doing that, and was watching Dexter. (I was factory restoring my old computer so I could give it to my mom for an early Christmas present.)

it seems like all my parents can tell me is that I’m fat. There’s not a day I’m home that I can be happy with the way I look because my parents think I’m disgusting. you’re lucky to have a mom who accepts you for who you are and the way you look. But you’re right, you should be your own judge of your happiness. Don’t give up :)
I know I’m lucky my...
Day twenty-four -cont.
Okay so for dinner I had a cheese bocaburger. :) It was good.
BUT THEN - I got in an argument with my mom, because she seems to think it’s okay that I’m fat. I try to explain to her that it doesn’t matter to me what OTHER PEOPLES opinions of what I look like, are. :/ I’m fat to me, and I don’t find it okay, and find it unhealthy for myself personally. I feel like...
Day twenty-two -cont, twenty-three, &twenty-four.
Ok so as I wasn’t really able to get on all weekend. I’ll first start out with what I had for dinner on Friday.
I had a baked potato and this fake veggie riblet thing, which to me was actually good. (:
Then later that night family came (woo). & I had a piece of bread cause I got hungry. D: Okay then Saturday, woke up feelin’ like P. Diddy. LOL OK JK. Ugh. I woke up early...
Day twenty-two.
Ok so far I didn’t think I’d really be able to get on today, as family will be coming ( :D ), but they haven’t got here yet. :(
So far today I had one of those tube things of mini M&Ms although I probably shouldn’t have well, little treats are nice every now and then. I also had a glass of chocolate soy milk, oddly doesn’t taste that good with M&Ms. I guess...

Day twenty-one.
Ok so today as far as eating goes, I had toast for breakfast, and a glass of Soy Chocolate Milk, and for dinner I had spring rolls. I think that’s what they’re called &another glass of Soy Chocolate Milk. (;
Ignore the fishsticks in the back, those are my Mom’s, not mine. *gags*
Before dinner, I went on about an hour walk. Yay! I had to pretty much go to the bathroom the...

your blog is awesome! what you’re doing is so inspirational and I wish you the best :)
hmm, suggestions… I know that soy milk is probably really healthy for you, but maybe to cut back on the sugar, you could try sugarless soymilk, or just regular milk.
just a thought :)
keep it up!
p.s the pictures are great xD
Thank you so much! (:
I’m not sure if when...
Day twenty.
Today, consisted of me being lazy because I feel completely like shit. Aunt flow decided to come, so guess what, today was my ‘reward’ day, where I didn’t walk. Because I feel like crap and don’t feel like walking around the place, so yeah.
I didn’t eat much though, so yay.
All I had was dinner. (: Egg Plant Parmesan, salad, and Soy Chocolate Milk.
Day nineteen.
Getting closer to a month! :D So today was a good day eating wise. I’ve had some leftovers of the salad I was eating yesterday for dinner, just a little bit, with a glass of Soy Vanilla Milk. Then at 4.15 about I went on an hour and fifteen minute walk, it was raining here and there, I couldn’t see out of my glasses lol, so I’d take them off, and it was worse since I can’t...
Day eighteen.
Are these numbers getting old? I don’t know. :(
Anywayyyyys, I’m still proud of myself on what I’m eating. :D
For lunch I had Morning Star Chik’n Nuggets, or whatever, and a glass of soy milk. :’) I only had 6 of them, (the fake chicken nuggets).
Then at 4.15 about, I went on my walk, I went an even longer way this time, yay me. (; My feet were sore, and I had to...
Day seventeen.
Well for one, I’m proud of myself today. All I’ve had to eat is dinner. :D Hopefully I won’t eat anything else, but it’s highly doubtful.
For dinner, I had the same thing I had Friday, but some different things in it. Tofu for one. Which is okay, I guess. It doesn’t really have a flavor in my opinion, and feels like you’re eating sponge. :/
Oh, and I tried...

Have any suggestions?
Ok so this probably isn’t one of my best ideas, but I’m having ‘dessert’.
It’s this chocolate pudding cake. I really need to be eating healthier tomorrow. -.-
Day sixteen.
Another day, another irritating challenge.
Ok so yesterday, I feel like I overate, cause I felt bloated or whatever like the last half of the day.
So today, for ‘breakfast’, we’ll call it that, since it was when I woke up, I had some whole wheat toast and a half of a pomegranate.
Which to be honest, was way too much. I felt like I was overeatting while eating it. But...

Thank you so much. :) and haha, everyone has the willpower, they...
Day fifteen -cont.
Ok, I had my workout at the gym. So freaking aching right now! I walked on the treadmill probably 40 minutes? Then I went on one of those bike things for 10 or so minutes, then I went back to the treadmill for another 10 minutes.
For dinner, we had this stir fry thing, which was actually really good minus the baby corn, disgusting. I gave mine to the dogs. :D ROFL. Oh, and some Chocolate Soy...

Ok, so my day’s not over yet, but anyways. So far today I’ve had my Soy Chocolate Milk, and currently I’m eating one of my fancy bagels. I know I eat a lot of them, but honestly they’re so good. D:
For a while I was afraid I wouldn’t be able to walk today, as it’s rain/snowing outside, and I didn’t know if I wanted to walk in that. But then I called my...

OK. So far today has just felt awkward. D: But anyways, for my ‘lunch’ I had chocolate soy milk, and one of my bagel things. :’)
Then at 4pm I went on my daily hour walk, which was super cold, but it felt good. Then when I got back I had dinner, which was meatless spaghetti. It has this stuff “Textured Vegetable Protein” in it. Oh and I had garlic bread, and another...

One day and it’ll be my two week anniversary. :D Lol.
Ok, so today all I’ve had to eat is toast, and then after my walk I had dinner, which was tacos with “Boca Crumbles” or wthever. Oh, and I had an onion bagel. With dinner I also had soy chocolate milk, and oooh my mom bought the Vanilla Soy Milk as well, so I’ll get to experiment with that later. :P
DINNER: SO;...
Day twelve.
Ugh, today sucks. I feel really down on myself for little things like snacking on things through the day. I’m scared I’m just gonna start going fatter, and not skinnier. ._.
Anyways, so far today I’ve had toast and like pieces of tortilla off a taco from Taco Bell. I didn’t want it, I don’t like taco bell, and I didn’t know if it had meat in it or not. My mom...

Okay, today was rather lame. But anyways. D: Last night, after I posted my day, I ended up having another mini bagel/tomato thing. :( I cheated.
So okay, start today. So for ‘breakfast’ I had some whole wheat toast, a little later I had some juice.
THEN at fourPM I went on my hour walk, taking Chester again. :} Though I’ll probably do it without Chester tomorrow. He gets on my...

Weee, 10 days. :D It really feels like it’s been longer, lol. D:
Anyways, today I had some of that bagel thing I posted yesterday, again. Then later I went on about an hour and 15 minute walk? So cold outside. I went by myself this time, no dogs or anything, I just wanted to be by myself.
Then for dinner I had a boca burger (it has leaf lettuce, sprouts, and tomatoes) and some potato...

Another day. :D
Okay so, I woke up at like 12:30 or so, fml. :( Anyways, I just hung out for a little while then I had a snack. These mini bagels with cream cheese, sprouts, and tomatoes. So good, I swear. I had two, but it came out best with just one. :(
THEN, I went on a wonderful walk with my dog Chester. It took about 55 minutes, and Chester pissing everywhere. -.- It’s so cold out,...
Day eight.
Note: There is no day seven because I didn’t feel like writing anything, though I still did walk and such.
Anyways, so today I got to go to the actual gym to work out. I went on the treadmill for 65 minutes. I went the whole hour and then a cool down of five minutes. Then after that I got on one of those bicycle things for like ten minutes. So I got a good workout today, yay. :D
