Running out of Ideas!!

Since I am on my winter break, I have decided to make a personal goal to run at least 5-6 times a week. I figure if I take a break from tae-bo over the break, my body won't plateau...but im literally running out of ideas. I run but I see noo results. I thought you were supposed to lose serious weight from running. I've only been doing it for a week, but I usually see results in my body quicker, especially when it involves cardio for long periods of time. Lets just see how things go because I refuse to continue to lose just 5 pounds out of this whole thing so far.....But pray for my results because I am really getting discouraged:(

Beauty and the Blizzard

My sister is cuh-razy!!!! This is my sister Dionne and we are enjoying the snow...well she is, I have my heater and hot cocoa with me:) Blizzard of 09 people!!!

New Body Here I Come!!!

It is currently 3:48 in the morning, and I cannot sleep. All I can think about is working out! I just wanna run cause I'm finally away from that ghetto school Morgan State ugh..Anywho I was studying the other day and I found these Acai Berry pills that Britney Spears talked about in her interview with Jay Leno. She had said they worked great so I looked into it, and Im gonna try it. I looked up all the ingredients (and there wasnt many) and I couldnt find anything wrong with it. I'm just gonna do the risk free trial, and see how it goes. I wanna lose 20 pounds over this winter break and Im gonna do it. By the summertime, I will have my dream body.

Usually around this time, I start to lose steam cause I see some results, but no maam Im not going to stop untill I lose 30 pounds. I've already lost 5......25 more to go!!!!!!!!!

PYT of the Week:)

Ok so after long heavy thought I decided to put my boo Tyrese as my PYT of the week. He is really fine, and has been since as long as I could remember. On top of being a phenominal actor, he is an amazing singer. Even today, people are still singing his songs and wishin they could be the mother of his kids lol!! Enjoy:)

Burnt Out!!!

So the semester is quickly coming to an end and I could not be more burnt out. Im am getting so lazy now that I only have a few more classes left. It's like this last week is really making me want to just sleep. I havent worked out, Im procrastinating about getting my work done and the rain is really putting a damper on my sprirts. I'm still doing my work and I'm still going to class,it seems as though all the other necessary things like eating washing my face or working out justs seems unnecessary. I have to find a way to get back on track because I refuse to get anything lower than a 3.0 this semster. I know I can do it I just need to push myself these last few days.
And I like I said in "Is College for me or am I just Lazy", pray for a sista cause I still gotta get through next semester.!!
XOXOXOXO

No one can say that they don't see themselves in at least one of the models. And the fact that they can bear it all, shows pure courage and confidence. I am WOMAN HEAR ME ROAR BABY!!!!

Was EveryBody Skinny in the 70's???

Today I saw one of those old movies from the 70's and it starred Pam Grier. Her shape was soo nice in that movie, and so was everybody else's. When I look at old pictures of my parents in their teenage years, they look skinny too. The only show from the 70's I can think of that had big people in it is Fat Albert and that's a cartoon!!! Everybody was skinny in the 70's. Why is it that my generation is soo dag on plump. Black, white, spanish, asian, and indians too!! I have been dieting and working out since as long as I could remember and I don't look like that.
Oh yeah, and there wasn't alot of dieting and exercising back in those days, so the skinnyness was all natural! That is soo not fair. I wonder if McDonalds was around in the 70's? Or maybe there wasn't alot of fast food at all. Whatever it was it's not fair....That's all I gotta say.

Is College for me or am I just LAZY???

Ok so I am a freshman and an ex-business major at Morgan State University. Today I met with my advisor and made the decision to switch my major to Liberal Arts with a concentration in Economics. I had always felt that having a business major would be right since I want to own my own business someday. But now I realize that I need to take a different route because, I AM BORED OUT OF MY MIND!!!!!!
I really do hate school right now and it's because it is sooo challenging. The workload is one thing, but my lack of drive is propelling me towards a miserable lifestyle for the rest of my life. Anything worth doing is worth doing well.And I wanna have a fun too. Work and hard are no longer going to be synonymous. Work and fun are going to be one and the same. Just keep praying for a sista though, cause I still gotta' make it through this semester:)
XOXOXOXOXO

Cyre is that you??

XOXOXOXO
