Super super slow day at work today. It was nice to be able to sleep in a little bit this morning. Jackson didn't wake up for a while, and when he did he was really happy. I got up around 7:30 for some reason and couldn't fall back asleep, so i went and ate breakfast and made my food for the day. Oh wait i remember why i woke up at 7:30, my lab partner texted me and told me he, "couldn't make it this morning" to study for our lab, a.k.a- he was still sleeping haha. Oh well, i got most of it done already!
I got to work and there was a little while where we only had 1 person in for like half an hour! That is pretty crazy let me tell ya, when you normally see almost 200 people in a day on a busy day. It was nice but went really really slow!
I had Chemistry again and we got our quizzes back... drum roll please.... 20/25! haha thats really not that good, but considering my lack of chemistry skills, i'll take it! If someone asked me a year or so ago what i got on a chemistry quiz, i would have said, "you are probably older than the score i got... now go away."
So I'm pretty happy with how things are going so far, i just hope i can do better than a C-, which i HAVE HAVE HAVE TO so i can be considered for graduate school!
Nothing much else happened today, just went running with Brighton while she road her bike with Jackson. We have been having Dakota drive us out 3.1 miles then we run back. I ran it in 21:42 or something, which is a little under 7 minute miles. Pretty cool i must say. Am i tired? HECK YEAH!
Better get to bed!
Weight: 176.8 lbs
Technically, this is my goal weight for the whole round that i am supposed to be at by next Wednesday... oh i really hope i don't blow it on my free day... A little background is in order!
I have always been a big complainer about my weight and gaining so much of it especially since i left on my mission weighing 175 or 180, something like that, and came home weighing a little over 210... Yeah, Fatty McFat Fat with a capital FAT. I don't even like to look at my drivers license picture, sad. Well, the reason this sucked so bad is because I remember talking to my friends about how i didn't understand how missionaries let themselves get so big out there and that i would never let myself get huge. 3 or 4 months into the mission, i was one of those. Its hard when you are getting fed every morning, afternoon and night with a bunch of southern chow and 100% authentic TexMex... mmm mmm mmm. Well when i got home, all my buddies had lost weight, grown up and were already on the hunt for ladies, while i was worrying about my fat butt and acne covered face from the Oklahoma humidity. Yeah, sucks.
Well... now that we have been doing this diet, i have lost 20 lbs and got back to my pre mission, high school weight that i NEVER NEVER thought i would be able to get back to EVER. I may not be able to bench 305 anymore or go workout for a couple hours a night, but i can run like the dickens without getting overly tired. I honestly never thought i would be able to just go out and run 3 miles like its no big deal, no prep, just run it. Well that is completely my reality at this moment and i can honestly say that it was because of this diet and my weird ability to be super super motivated while I'm exercising, not necessarily to go exercise, because I'm totally cool with lounging all day long on the couch watching movies.
I've actually wondered why I'm not really motivated with school work or other things, but when it comes to working out and putting my body through running and lifting, i have NEVER had any lack of motivation...
I think i may have just answered the exact reason i LOVE my job and becoming a physical therapist... so why does the stuff i lack motivation in stand in my way... life isn't fair i guess. Anyway, I'm rambling.
I feel really really good about myself, which makes me feel really really good about everything else in my life! I LOVE MY WIFE, MY SON, and just plain old LIVING!
