Day #8 and an advertisement Breakfast: Small bowl of Cracklin' oatbran
Post breakfast snack: Granola bar
Lunch: Leftover veggie pasta yogurt sugar free pudding
Post lunch Snack: Graham crackers and peanut butter
Dinner: Chicken on flat bread bun 1 tbls bbq sauce (the low cal kind) Green beans (about a fist sized amount)
Before bed: I had one of my homemade pumpkin cookies. They're made with 100% whole wheat and only one cup of sugar for all 36 cookies. Plus the one I had was a small one to see if I needed more cloves to the remaining cookies.
Workout 30 min: EA fitness for my Wii is kicking my ass! Wow Stacy did NOT lie about it. My legs and butt are sore, but it's a good sore. I know I'm out of shape but the sore muscles make me feel accomplished. I'm going to the rec tonight with a friend to workout, so that should be fun. And I can watch NCIS from my machine! W00t. I feel good, tired but good. Note to self: stretch more.
Oh and for those of you that are worried, I don't really call myself a fatty fat, but I thank you all for your uplift during my time of self loath. I have gotten over the slip and I do realize that I just suck it up and move on, which is quite helpful. More helpful when I talk about it. So thanks!
Also, Jacque I think you're hot too. ;)

Days #5, 6, and 7 Day 5 Breakfast: egg, sausage, cheese and lite cream cheese wrap muffin (corn muffin) *no post breakfast snack as I was full.
Lunch: peanut butter sandwich yogurt sugar free pudding cup
Post lunch snack: milk and graham crackers
Dinner: Chipotle Burrito and chips (no salsa)
Day 6 Breakfast/brunch (I slept till 11): Bowl of Cracklin' Oatbran (about a cup and 1/4)
Late lunch: (I feel shitty about this whole day) Beef and Cheddar from arby's and a milkshake Early Dinner: 4 pieces of Pizza(I am a fatty fat)
Day 7 (Sunday) Breakfast: 2 scrambled eggs with chopped broccoli two pieces of toast with jam 1/4 a cup of pan roasted potatoes milk 1/2 cup of coffee
Lunch: Turkey bologna and cheese sandwich Apple slices (4) and sugar free caramel dip (it tastes a little weird but hell, it's caramel) 5 cheese doodles green tea
Dinner: garlic pasta with a metric shit ton of veggies and a glass of milk
Sorry about the self loathing a bit. Apparently Saturdays and pizza are my weakness. I understand that a piece is fine but I over did it quite a bit by having 4. Which makes me feel like a fatty fat. I feel I did well Sunday though and I am trying. Also, I've figured out I'm fat because people have started to tell me "They're concerned" about my health. Wow that makes me feel shitty, but it makes my cause stronger. So today is the first day I start to exercise and I haven't decided what I want to do yet. I think I'll try my new EA active for the wii. My friend Stacy says it kicks her ass and she's lost some awesome weight so I think I'll start with that. Maybe I'll go to the rec tomorrow night. We shall see. Thanks for reading everyone and giving me some encouragement I appreciate it.
Also, last thing because I have to do it. Name: Chelsey Weight: 240 Short term goal: 5 pounds in 2 weeks Feelings about weight: Oh hell no, we have to fix this shit!

Day #3 and thoughts Breakfast: Mini-bagel Light strawberry cream cheese Granola bar
Midmorning Snack: two rice cakes with peanut butter and raisins
Lunch: cup and 1/4 of the leftover pasta cup yogurt Snack sized Butterfinger (it was the size of my thumb! So cute)
Post Lunch Snack: Graham Crackers Sugar free low cal hot chocolate (Thanks Swiss miss!)
Dinner: Leftover turkey sausage Whole wheat flat bread bun (They're really neat!) Two slices (self sliced) of Mozzarella 1 whole wheat blueberry muffin
I cheated a little today, I had a vanilla milkshake. I was awesome, but I did think about it before hand and I decided on vanilla even though the other flavors were calling to me.
Thoughts: I've decided not to tell anyone, beside you all and my mom, about this food diary. I've let so many people down by dieting and trying things before and failing. Now I only have myself to worry about! I only have myself to please, and myself to work with because I'm doing this for myself and no one else! I appreciate all of the comments and support everyone, keep up the good work and I'll keep up mine.
I start the exercise next week, the nice thing is is that I've inspired other people to eat better and get fit too! I'm so happy for everyone who's offered to partner with me at the gym, thanks guys. I'm planning to hit the lab pool at least once a week with my friend KD and work on my own other days as well. Plus my friend Sam said she'd go gyming in the evenings with me too! Such good friends.
A great thing I've noticed after only a few days is that I'm getting fuller and staying fuller on less food. This is great for me portion wise.
on the bad side I have a cold.

I need your support. Dear Livejournal friends, Seeing as how most of you I subscribe to are my very good friends I need your help. After much deliberation on my part I've found I am fat and I hate myself for it. Before now I have never done anything like this for myself I've only been half-assing my way through it. I'm going to start writing down everything I put in my mouth, from gum to lunch to water. I will have one cheat day a week (Usually Friday or Saturday) and I will do fitness activities as much as I can muster with my busy schedule.
What I need from all of you is your support and your advice. After a discussion with my mom I'm finally starting to feel the need to do this with my heart. I will post my food journal here starting tomorrow Monday the 11th. Hopefully this will save me money and my waistline. So if any of you have healthy recipes, ideas, hints or motivational speeches please don't hesitate to email or post here. I love all of you very much, so start your engine for "Project 150lbs or The way I got back to my high school weight."
Note: I will be giving details, feelings and my actual weight no lies. If you have a problem with knowing please quit subscribing or suck it up.

Sad Panda Seeing as I am needed in Cincinnati for a wedding Saturday there will be no Dragoncon for me this year. For this I am quite depressed as I had planned great things for this con. So to cheer myself I will post this list in detail so that any of my friends that will be at the con can fill my shoes and do the things I cannot. Hint Hint Miss Lauren.
So all who read this Have at it! But take pictures so I know you did, think of it as a scavenger hunt.
#1. Find Don Maitz and get his 2010 Pirate calender #2. Stalk Patrick Stewart (by this I mean stand in his line and dance like a weirdo to my ipod until my turn comes) then inform his how much I loved him in Jeffery (and his pink Beret) and have him sign a picture for me. #3. Find Jennie Breeden and buy her Pretty Princess sticker for my laptop. (and show her my Pretty Princess cosplay) #4 Drool on the Corsets I cannot buy again this year, then try one on anyway and love the things it does to my boobs #5 See the Burlesque Show if have to beat up manly men to do so. #6 Drool on the men in kilts (you'll do this for me Lauren?) #7 Go to Gina Briggs (beside Jennie) and buy her stuff too! #8 Sit in on the panels I missed last year #9 Do the Thriller Dance too! #10 Watch Dragoncon TV #11 Have a pina colada at Trader Vics with a werewolf (I have to do this!) #12 Take pictures of the awesome costumes (Please do Lauren) #13 Watch the Kilt Blowing #14 Find Felicia Day and tell her she's an awesome geek #15 Make fun of Twilight cosplayers like it's my job #16 Meet my big brother for dinner
*Sigh* perhaps I'll get to go next year. Have fun everyone! -VIP

[Link] | you are violet #EE82EE | Your dominant hues are red and blue. You're confident and like showing people new ideas. You play well with others and can be very influential if you want to be.
Your saturation level is lower than average - You don't stress out over things and don't understand people who do. Finishing projects may sometimes be a challenge, but you schedule time as you see fit and the important things all happen in the end, even if not everyone sees your grand master plan.
Your outlook on life is bright. You see good things in situations where others may not be able to, and it frustrates you to see them get down on everything.

Gaaaargh! So many things I want to do and no money to do it with! First of all I would LOVE to go to Ikasucon. But I'm not sure if I can afford it due to the moving in with boyfriend situation. I'm not going to NY in March because I have to save money to move in with said boyfriend, also it's my 21st so everyone wants to see me that month and break.
Also another up coming is Dragoncon. Now I am currently planning on going but there are other things to consider than money. If I am moving in with Justin I will probably be doing it when my lease is up in August the same month as the con. Not only that but it's up the 31st!! The same day as the con. Gaaaaaaaagh!
*thud* Help meeeeeee.
So I've no idea what to do!!! *facepalm*
But just for one moment we will pretend that I can and AM going to the cons and I will tell you my other problem. I want to cosplay.......T_T
Cosplay Options:
Kaleido Star Jem and the Holograms Moogle (it's not really a furry so I can live with it) And...Possibly Errant Story
Now I would love to do any of these. Mostly Kaleido Star. But here's the big problem
I've no one to make a costume for me!! Lord knows I can't sew to save my life and now I'm not home with my mom who could do it because she's retired but now can't because I'm not there. Poo.
So this is a call out. If anyone who can help me with costuming is reading this for the love of god please help me! If I have a cosplay outfit I will make one of the cons work! Even if it means just moving boxes into Justin's place and fleeing to Atlanta.
HELP PLEASE.

R.I.P T.S Eliott, we love you. You've read right, Lura and my kitty Miss Eliott died this morning around 4:30am. I figured I should let everyone know so there wouldn't be a shock if anyone came over to our place and she was missing.
Eliott was only 4 and we loved her dearly. Not only was she soft and fuzzy but she kept us warm and loved. We also taught her to play fetch. A cat playing fetch who knew? She was with us for a year and a half and it was wonderful to have her with us. We saved her from the animal shelter and gave her a place to call home, thankfully home is where she died, not in some hospital or dirty shelter.
If you're wondering about Lura and I, no need to be worried we're doing alright. Tears and hugs and we press on. Thanks to Lura's dad Eliott will have a resting place in Lura's backyard instead of behind our apartment.
So raise your glasses in a toast to our dear cat. T.S Eliott.

Last This is the last of my musical list. It is truly amazing.
Last: Newsies King of New York. Who knew Christan Bale could sing? Although these are not in fact all of the musicals I watch they are some of the ones I watch most often. I didn't include My absolute favorite Guys and Dolls because I couldn't find a video for it.
Enjoy, Chelsey
may these songs get stuck in yur head as they do in mine. Impy started it!
