Day2 ... Get w/the program Nia!
So............. today is day 2 for this blog, I have yet to work out. But for what's its worth I have thought a lot about doing some type of activity. lol
This morning my lil one and I had to walk across to the parking lot on the other side of our housing complex.. My son was so happy that we were walking. (he is a 3 yr old with overwhelming energy) The whole way over to the car, he kept singing..."we're walking to the car, we're walking to the car" ... I on the other hand, dreaded the fact that we were "walking to the car". We were already running 15 minutes late and I know the walk really wouldn't be setting us back but I so wished that my car was conveniently parked in my garage instead. But I guess that's why I'm struggling with 100+ extra pounds, B/c I couldn't slow down enough to enjoy a small simple walk to the car. lol
On my drive home from work today I was thinking about activities that I could do to fit in exercise but also include my son. (My first excuse for not being able to work out is, "I didn't have a baby sitter" )I figured we could go for a walk to the park, but when I picked him up from school the thought of walking in the hot hot heat was no longer appealing to me. Then as I'm turning into my apartment complex, I see a very fit man running in the hot hot heat. of course first thought to mind was, ...this fucking guy! lol I seriously had to laugh at myself then, because he wasn't letting the heat determine wether or not he was going to do something positive for himself today. however, that wasn't enough to get me out of the house once I walked in. I'm a horrible person for complaining about my weight/size and doing nothing about it I know.... but fuck it at least I'm being honest about it!
My goal for the next two days is to do a minimum of 2 things outside of the house that could be considered a form of exercise. I'm hoping to make up for yesterday and today obviously. but mainly because as I am sitting here writing this the thought of my son and his natural craving for physical activity came to mind. I need to strongly increase my fitness level very quickly because today my son is 3 years old and extremely active and I don't want to think that in 10 years from now he is a couch potato that does absolutely nothing but watch TV and play video games all because his mother did not participate in physical activities with him or encourage him to play outside. He will quickly tell you that when he turns 4 in November he can play baseball and soccer(the enrollment age is 4). I definitely want to provide him every opportunity to play as many sports as he is willing to play. I believe involvement in sports help teach young kids how to share and over time sports activities help keep kids grounded and keep them goal orientated. Sports also offer a great way to stay in shape and also teach people how to maintain a healthy lifestyle. Damn, I wish my dad would have let me play soccer when I wanted to.... I could have the most beautiful looking thighs ever!
Well, I have to work early so its ttym for now! Gdnite!!! :]
P.s. Tomorrow I will post my before pics and maybe some past before and after pics of many years of battling the bulge. hahaha!

beginnings
so, here i am currently at 5'7 & 3/4 and almost 215 lbs. with a bag of chips in hand, no less. not to mention i am BEYOND pale. sad seeing how it is midway through the summer, haha.
woah, MAC hello kitty. oh so sparkly.
HI. my name is randi. yes, it is a girl's name sometimes. i'm 23, in college, and i work part time. i enjoy going out for drinks, watching a good documentary film/TV show, and browsing for stuff on ebay i'll probably never buy. oh, did i mention i'm fat? overweight. thick. chubby. whatever you wanna call it.
i've usually always been this size. i say usually because there were two periods of time when i wasn't a chubbo. the first was when i was around 11 or 12, and i was actively playing travel softball--so i stayed working out regularly, while weighing around 160. after quitting sports in 8th grade, i gained almost 30 lbs. after i graduated high school, i somehow dropped close to 40 lbs, and weighed around 180 when i started working at a retail job in the mall. after switching jobs a few times, i finally ended up finding one i liked and became accustomed to eating very unhealthy during lunch breaks. this is where my "fast food" addiction all began. every day it was something new, and i actually looked forward to getting my daily dose of grease each day.
now, a year later, i dont eat as horribly but i'm definitely still paying the price. i crave fatty foods constantly and physical activity is pretty much non existant. all of my "habits" are just that--habits. whether it be physical, dietary, or sleeping, i don't get the correct amount i need to feel healthy.
SO, with all of that said, here i am posting in this blog. as vania mentioned, we came up with the idea to create a blog together. the number 180 is significant for two reasons. first, it's our GOAL weight. while ultimately we know that a number shouldn't determine how you feel about yourself, we both agreed that 180 is the weight we'd most feel comfortable and would like to be at. secondly, 180 not only represents the goal weight but it also stands for a full circle, as it is in geometrical terms.
anyway, it's late, and this is super long (sorry) thanks for sticking with me if you did. i might actually come back and edit, haha.
goodnight!

Hi!!!
My name is Vania, you can call me Nia! :] I'm part 1 of 2 to this blog site. The other half is my bestie Randi! She will be adding her off-the-wall thoughts, witty/sarcastic comments, and ludacris ideas later. Oh wait I just confused her with me, lol (She's the sain one, im boarderline crazy) Anywho, Randi and I were talking earlier about our struggles with weight loss. Then we got onto the topic of BMI and what the average size in America is. Then that lead us to the discuss that, even though someone may be considered "average" that doesnt mean that they are guarenteed to feel comfortable within their body. I am definitely not considered "average" nor do I feel the need to be average, but I would looooovve to feel comfortable in my own skin! We decided that its about time that we finally stopped talking about losing weight and actually put some action behind our words. As anyone who has ever gained or lost weight knows, there are emotions that are attached with the process. When we gain we can become sad/disappointed/mad and when we loss we can be excited/proud/happy. So... that being said, what better way for us to document our weightloss process/ 180 tranformation than to blog about it! =]
