Week 4: Sucess and still alone...

Maybe it's considered bad luck if the person you want to be with (at least, you THINK you want to be with them) logs off of the messanger after you ask them what's up with them and avoids all things with you, but I have dealt with this rejection a lot in the past two years, so I don't let it bother me anymore. Besides, I have exciting news as of 8:30 this morning: After a loooooong weekend of having to deal with over- sugared siblings and two days of pizza, I have found out that, while I didn't lose a single ounce, I also didn't gain anything, either! GO, me! I have also realized that I enjoy weight- lifting this week. It makes me feel like everything is at least 8 pounds lighter, even though I'm only lifting a 5 lbs. weight. I do as many reps as I can fit in without doing them wrong and without harming myself within the course of a song, and once I've completely exhausted a certain part of my arm or the song is over, I switch to another arm- muscle group, then eventually the other arm. I have deliberately timed about 17 songs and placed them on a cd so that they are about the same time length, there resulting in each muscle getting the same amount of time to work. Even though I have only recieved support from one person, who has only written 1 comment since my trek about a month ago started, I will continue to update on my progress so that I stay motivated. I may have won this battle, but the next one is sure to be more difficult: THANKSGIVING! I have three weeks about to prepare for this delicious (and diet- wrecking) attack on my waist. wish me luck!
