I suck at this whole "diet" thing...I know, I know, don't call it a diet, it's supposed to be a life style. But I still suck at it...folks... getting in shape isn't as easy as they make it seem on the Biggest Loser lol seriously -- it's insane.
I don't like to make excuses. I'm trying to take the stance that if you want something bad enough you'll find a way, if not, you'll find an excuse...However, I must say, having a limited income & living somewhere that you're not in charge of the groceries list... makes it very difficult to stay on track.
Currently, due to a break-up and a paycut at my (now former) job, I'm living with my grandparents. I'm so thankful for them helping me out, I'm living rent free, I have my own room, and I (for the most part) come and go as I please.
The down side to this... is that since I'm not giving them anything for rent, I feel like a jerk asking them to buy me specific things or taking over space in their refridgerator, so... it's been really hard for me to stay on track...I don't want to offend my grandmother by telling her I don't want to eat her food .... (plus it's DELICIOUS!).
I actually just got a new job (yay!). I start on the 25th, and it's a bit of a pay bump, plus they pay 100% of my healthcare which is also a big plus! So I'm hoping with the extra income, I'll be able to give them some money for rent & food (which would give me some bargaining power to request more healthy meals lol).
I have to give props to my g-ma though she just bought me a massive bag of salad yesterday when they went food shopping. I'm hoping that pattern sticks... I'm hitting a plateau & I'm not happy about it lol -- TIME TO LOSE SOME LBS!!
