So even though this past year has been super hell for me and continues to be thus, there has been one really good thing that has come out of it.  I've finally gotten on the right path towards a more healthy lifestyle.  I quite smoking finally! That's a huge improvement there. Though the biggest accomplishment I have to say is that I have lost almost 40 pounds in total so far in about 9 months. I'm not ashamed to admit that before I was fluctuating between 250-255 pounds and then I bumped up to 265 pounds and was trying to lose weight.  I was struggling with that as it was and eventually I made my way up to 275 pounds and that's when I made the serious decision that this would happen no more and that I will lose this weight. The weight gain had a lot to do with more than just an unhealthy diet, stress levels can seriously make you gain weight if you're not careful as well.

 I am now down to weighing 236 pounds. I still have many more pounds to lose and it may seem like its taken a long time to lose it, but I realized that I'm not meant to lose weight quickly.  In losing weight at the rate I have, I've been able to maintain it way better and keep it off. I have finally come to accept the fact that it will not be a quick fix overnight and I am okay with that.  I am smaller now then I was what I was fluctuating at before I started to gain and that in itself makes me happy. 

I'm still keeping up with my weekly gym workout program, now stronger than ever, and although that scale hasn't gone down as often as I would like it to, I know I'm losing inches in my measurements.

Until next time!

I just realized I haven't updated this thing since the beginning of last year.  That's crazy! Not that anyone actually reads this thing.  I did finally get a job last year in March, however, due to certain managers wanting to get rid of me, I was fired in January of this year and have been looking for a job since then.  I was luckily able to get unemployment and thanks to my tax return I have been able to pay bills.  UNFORTUNATELY my former employer decided to fight the unemployment and is still fighting it, I won the first hearing and I'm currently waiting on the second.  If they win this round I will have to start paying back the benefits I recieved.  Mind you I already recieved all the weeks of unemployment I was qualified to recieved already and this appeals case is still going on months later.  I'll keep you posted on how things go.

Wow, I know it's been a long time since I've updated my journal lol.  I haven't died I swear!!!  As you can see by some of my recent photos, I had a trip to Universal Studios in Orlando, Florida over the Christmas holidays.  The rides and the park was fun, but I have to say it was probably the worst vacation I ever had overall, do to my father being well....my father.  We also went to Medieval Times which if you guys aren't aware of is a dinner show that is Medieval themed.  It's pretty amazing, tho the Knight that we were supporting was the first to be defeated in the tournaments T.T oh well tho lol.

As far as cosplay news goes, I have a new planned cosplay coming up.  I'm very excited for it.  Its kind of a secret cosplay ^_^ well a few people know about it, but they know to stay hush hush about it.  

My mom also recently just moved to California so now its me and my "roommate" aka my sister, living in the house now.  Im still searching for a job sadly, but luckily I'm still babysitting so I have some income, still coming in.  I do miss my mom from time to time, but now I don't feel like a total loser for still living with my mom anymore.  There's nothing wrong with it of course, considering the economy, it's just how I was feeling because majority of all my friends are moved out now.  I think that's about it really.  Until next time!!!
