The Dinner

Yum!            

My twin made me an amazing dinner last night. Garlic mashed potatoes, asparagus, turkey meatloaf and creamed corn.  I never had meatloaf before it was amazing and creamed corn! Oh my, 21 years of corn on the cob why didn't i have some creamed corn.

I also had some beer, good ol' english. Made me feel fancy. He knew i had a rough day before going to Aveda.

 It's Wednesday?
I feel like my time off before school is going by real quickly.
Did a small of laundry to start my day.
For breakfast I had a bowl of cereal. Might make some peppermint tea in a bit. 

Since there's left overs, it  makes total sense having some mashed potatoes with sunny side up eggs....then meatloaf with asparagus for dinner.

Since i'm not working, i can't spend and being dependent on my twin puts pressure on me to try to be smart with what i spend money on.

The Education

Oh me oh my! 
New Edits are BELOW

First day of school at Aveda. I am beyond exciting, so excited I wish I didn't have to eat to have to face stomach rumbling, pray I don't get an upset stomach.



Just a basic scrambled egg, turkey and cheese on a roll with a corn muffin to soothe my sweet tooth.



To be honest, I can't bounce into 100% health nut girl within night. I love food too much to drop it all and change it for better choices. I mean at least it's not 2 Sausage egg and cheese Mcgridles. 2 hashbrowns, 1 medium caramel frappe from McDonalds. I think that's a difference. Not only was it a better choice, my breakfast only cost me 3.50. Drink from home, ice pomegranate tea, water, or peppermint tea (my preferences of course.), instead of buying beverages at the deli. I fought my urge to not grab a bag of chips.


Somehow being in the deli makes it seem ok to eat junk for breakfast.

I need to buy some fruits to take to school. Maybe buy myself a cute lunchbag to carry em around.




I will post some more later on today after school to share the deets!
Ok, literally, i had the shittiest morning.
1- no water at all...couldn't even brush my teeth after breakfast. 

2- so calling the super, he answered and was pretending to be someone else, saying wrong number. douchebag

3- 15 minutes  later he came to fix the problem. 

 Then i go downstairs to select my outfit for school since uniform is not required.
HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA, we still have some numbers left.

4- I heard a trickling sound....holy shit water dripping from the bathroom to the bedroom.

5- Had to run upstairs to see the dirty water from plumbing over flowing from the toilet flooded the bathroom.  FUCK.

6- My awesome high school STILL haven't called me to tell me my transcript is ready. (if i don't have it by Nov 9th, i can't start class. 

7- had to wait for the water clear up to then shower. making me 45 minutes behind on schedule. 

I'm shocked I didn't buy a beer before orientation...well that would be irresponsible.
My lovely twin (bf) has made me dinner.


Stay sweet,

The Movement

Why did i decide to start a blog? 
Who knows, doing videos suck since I'm totally camera shy and constantly stutter. (plus i tend to speak gibberish)
Kudos to the folks that have made the weight loss videos on youtube, i tried and failed. 
I think my writing is a bit more amusing to read so please do share your thoughts.

I'm a 21 year young jaded New Yorker who's been trying to lose weight ever since ever. 
Trying horrible diets and even starving myself to end up shoving the lbs back on in minutes.
I've always been a chubby kid and i've just gotten bigger and bigger. Especially in middle school when my C cup breasts popped in the picture, thought the weight gain would hide it, but nope it enhanced it.

I am 5'1 ish to 5'2...hmm not sure
and weigh about 235lbs, i will update you once i officially wiegh myself.

But let me be honest, I don't want to be all about losing numbers, it's just changing my habits, my lifestyle...
improving me, there's nothing wrong with me, i just want to perfect myself (positive thinking, no?)

Let's talk food, love, life, struggles, emotions, body image and food (yup it controls most of my life, gotta say it twice.)



Stay Sweet,
Jonivette
