xmas and stuff

Well I finally got to go home for xmas! It was an amazing time. Got tons of stuff I wanted like a cordless drill, cool silverware, a new board game, a crockpot, orange pots and pans, etc. I also ate and drank my face off the entire time. So needless to say that this week has been a bit of a set back for my weight loss competition. Oh well. I'll just have to step it up to loose the pounds that I've gained during this week.

I still feel really positive about the lifestyle changes that I have accomplished so far.

New diet week 1

So week one has come and gone. It has definitely been an interesting experience so far. I've been trying to avoid packaged foods and trying to focus on things found in canada's food guide. I've started going to the gym again although I haven't gone as often as I would have liked. So far week one has been very positive!

Yeah!

New Years Eve!

Happy New Years everybody! So I hope you all had a great night! Here is the rundown of my night:

So I worked until 5 and it was decently busy. Me and Kevin pretty much ran to safeway and the liquor store because both closed at 6. We hopped on a bus and headed to Kevins place where we started to drink, eat and get ready. We then walked to Linette's place and boy was it cold out. We had a drink along the way so that made it a bit better. We hung out at Linette's for a bit and then headed over to club dak. Well turns out that club dak is now a sports bar called Tapps. So we decided to have a drink and warm up a bit before we headed out. Well it was about this point in the evening that I noticed that our portable drink pretty much emptied in my purse. Yup about half a litre to a litre of booze in my purse. Well it pretty much leaked all over but at least nothing got ruined. Well we were going to go to a house party in south osborn but because we now had no booze, we proceeded to go to my house. Well we took a but that dropped us off on main street which meant that we had a bit of a walk ahead of us. Neither of us went pee before we left the bar so we had to take a pit stop behind some dumpsters (classy). We finally made it to my place and started to eat, drink, and play rockband. Phil came over to join us for a bit and then him and Kevin went on their way. I was thinking about joining the house party but then I thought that I had had a very successful night already and was content to leave it like that. So I put on Harry Potter and went to bed.

This was one of the best new years I have had in a while. Thanks Kevin for the amazing night!
