Weight Loss Update...

I am going to re-post my dated goal weight list from livejournal in here:
10/08 - 182 --- I met this weeks goal! Yay! So far 15 pounds lost... only 62 more to go!
10/15 - 180
10/22 - 177
10/29 - 175
10/31 - 173.5 (please body! I think this is around what I weighed on Halloween last year! I just wanna be close to that! You know what sucks? I still felt like shit then because I was only gaining... what is nice about now is I will have lost to get to that weight so I will feel way better! yay!)
11/01 - 173
11/08 - 171
11/15 - 168.5 (Yay! Back into the 160's!? HELL YEAH! I will be able to wear my favorite western shirt again! I have been SO pissed that shirt is so tight now)
11/22 - 165.5
11/29 - 163
12/01 - 162
12/08 - 160
12/15 - 157
EXERCISING BEGINS
12/22 - 155
12/29 - 152
01/01 - 149.5 (I WANT IT DAMMIT! DON'T TELL ME I CAN'T DO IT!)
I would love to begin the new year under 150. It would be a fresh start! I haven't been UNDER 150 (mind you, I was 151ish New Years 2007/2008), since November 2007. THAT WILL BE OVER THREE YEARS! And honestly, that sounds like a lot for a girl of my height, but I looked pretty decent at 149. Everyone always thought I weighed 135ish. SO SUCK IT, k? Well, no! Just be happy for me :)
01/08 - 147.5
01/15 - 145
01/22 - 143
01/29 - 141
02/01 - 140 (I have not weighed 140 since freshman year of high school and I will be graduating college in the spring. WHAT.THE.FUCK!?)
SCHOOL IS STARTING AGAIN SO NOT AS MUCH EXERCISE TIME ;/ WEIGHT LOSS WILL SLOW DOWN A LOTTTTTTTT.
02/08 - 139
02/15 - 137.5
02/22 - 136.5
03/01 - 135
03/08 - 133
03/15 - 131
03/22 - 129
03/29 - 128
04/01 - 127ish, which I would be VERY happy with. Ideally by May 31st I would like to get down to 120, but I will NOT bust my ass to do so. I look VERY cute in the 120's (which is evidenced by photos I found of myself in 8th grade. How could I not see how adorable I was!?) and 120 is just a dream I've had for myself on my birthday for years. If I weigh 120 on my birthday I will weigh... *DRUM ROLL PLEASE* less than Rose! AHHH! I have NEVER weighed less than Rose. That is not even as important to me as Rose & I looking a similar weight is. I've been wanting to not be the chubby/fat friend for SO long, and what better gift to give myself after GRADUATING COLLEGE WITH A DEGREE IN MATHEMATICS AND GETTING INTO GRADUATE SCHOOL AT 23 (YESSSSSSSSS) than something I've always wanted, which is not feeling inferior to Rose! I would be sosososo happy. And yes, I want to wear a tank top, which I have never done in front of Rose.
05/31 - 120 <3

& no, I do not feel I need to go lower than that. I will be happy in the 120's forever because I have been fat for so long... I really will be able to appreciate being a normal size! AHHH TO FIT INTO FOREVER 21 CLOTHES WITH NO ISSUE! What a dream! And it will be reality soon enough! I feel it in my bones... I am feeling SO good on this diet and I can't believe this will become reality! YES!

05/31 - 120. Total weight loss: 77 pounds

Birthday Dress...

Since I am in the process of losing weight, I know I will be down to my goal weight by my birthday (May 31). As such, I want to wear a really cute dress on my birthday to celebrate all of my progress! (By then I will also have just received my Bachelors Degree in Mathematics with a minor in business and will be headed to grad school! YAY!)

Can someone please buy this for me NOW??

I NEED THIS DRESS IN MY LIFE NOW!!!! HOW AWESOME IS IT!??! It would go PERFECTLY with the black suede wedge ankle boots I just got from gojane. Sucks that I am broke right now :(

I LOVE this dress. Although the studs look a little cheap, I think it is perfect for a night out on the town with my girls for my birthday. On your birthday I think you're allowed to dress up a bit, and I think this would be perfect :)
