Here's a little introduction about me and what I'm aiming to do with this blog.

I'm 20 years old. I have a lot of time on my hands and I mostly spend that time playing Pokemon but, at least half an hour a day, I would like to dedicate my time to exercising and becoming thinner and ultimately healthier.

I'm currently fighting against diabetes. But according to my last tests, I'm doing good with that as long as I keep up at least 20 minutes of exercising or walking and eating better.

As for my diet, I've cut out sweets and snacks almost completely. I mean, I never had much for snacks in the past but I did have chips. From now on, though, my snacks are going to be vegetables and fruits or yogurt. Lunch, I'll probably have salads with chicken or Sandwiches, with no mayo or light mayo.

I've cut soda out of my diet and the only caffeine I get at all is from Monster's Absolutely Zero energy drink or other similar zero cal/zero sugar drinks. I've been drinking a lot of water, clear choice sparkling white grape water, and 2% milk but I'll probably stop drinking milk or cut it down to one or two glasses a week because it gives me an upset stomach sometimes and apparently has a lot of calories per cup.

I want to slim down my 40+ waist size to under 30". It'd be nice to fit in my boyfriend's pair of pants for fun.

For exercise, I usually go out and walk for a long time at the mall. Yesterday I did around 8k steps because the up escalator on one side was broken so when my boyfriend and I went over there to get coffee and look at stuff in FYE, we had to walk back and go around since the mall doesn't have a staircase at the moment. (Undergoing construction).

Video Games

Sometimes when I'm sitting on my bed playing Pokemon, I'll do situps and leg extensions. I also play wii fit for a little bit. Mostly doing the basic step attempting to get perfect scores. I would like another xbox to hook my kinect up to so I can play it downstairs without having to drag everything from my room to the living room and then bringing it all back up when my friends want to play left 4 dead 2. Though, in the small space I have, I used to do the skinny jeans workout on Your Shape: Fitness Evolved. I might go back to doing that again since the other workouts I don't have enough room to do.

That's all I have to say for now, I guess. I'm getting a bit hungry so I'm going to go snack on a clementine.
