Penpals. / Pixie: "Penpals.
I want a penpal. Reblog this post if you want to be my penpal. We can exchange emails to begin with and talk everyday and get to be penpals. And then we can send each other photos and presents. It would be great."
Reblogged... I'd love a penpal or two :)
I should write in here more often.
So, I'm finished uni for the year. The plan is to go into N around January - Feb, to get off some of my meds and clean up ready to start uni next yeare. I figure wait until the new year. Then I can't fuck up and I have the best start for uni next year.
My nephew was born on Saturday night, and I haven't been able to see him bc I have an i9nfection :( Despite heaps of treatment I don't know if it's going. It totally sucks. He's so cute and my lil bro is such a proud daddy :) :) I love them to bits!! Welcome to the world Addison :) :)
I know this blog is really random.. I have a few and don't really know what to do with them all lol.
Weight loss journal
Keep a record of your progress:-
Successful weight loss requires careful attention to your daily diet and exercise. In essence you are making a conscious life style choice. There is no easy way - you are in it for the long haul. Once you have made the decision to alter your image and the way you live, you have to implement it and keep on implementing it for the rest of your life. Sometimes it will be real hard to do this. Sometimes you will lose heart and want to hurl in the towel. Your journal is a hard record of what you have achieved so far. Use and look at your achievements when you are down or unmotivated.
Keeping a record or weight loss journal of the foods you eat, the exercises you do and the weight you lose is an excellent way to adhere to a weight loss program and keep you motivated. Sometimes its hard to share your successes with others and having a permanent record on paper or on your computer is an excellent way of demonstrating your progress to yourself and others.
There are many ways to do this:-
* Use a diary
* Use a scrapbook
* Use a loose leaf file
* Use a photo album
* Use a commercial spreadsheet like Excel
* Use an online one.
This is a personal record for yourself and you can put anything you like in it. Here are a few typical weight loss journal topics:-
* Your goals and the time frame.
* Your successes.
* Your milestones.
* Inspiration, role models, other success stories.
* Your daily diet program.
* Your weight.
* Your weight loss.
* Calories consumed.
* Fat, carbohydrates and protein intakes.
* What exercise you did and for how long.
* Medical/dietitian visits.
* Personal Health Items
* Recipes that work.
* Magazine and press clippings or articles.
* Personal Comments.
Its always a good idea to start your journal off with a goal. This should be what you aim to be. This not only gives you a target but in your mind's eye you will have a vision of the new you. Do not set unrealisitic goals! Set something attainable and when you get there you will have a milestone under your belt. You can then set a new goal.
The second thing that needs to go in your journal is your diet and exercise plan. This is just as important as setting a goal. You need to have plan as to how you are going to get there. Remember you need to eat a proper balanced diet!! Get a registered dietitian to give you a properly planned eating schedule that suits your lifestyle. Good dietitians will taylor make your new diet to suit the type of life you live and the people who you share your life with.
Scrapbooking is a fun way of keeping a weight loss journal. Scrap books are immensely flexible and provide hours of entertainment. Its a great hobby as well. Many successful weight loss people have used scrap books as an aid. The big beauty of a scrap book is the ability to keep notes and add photographs such as before and after shots. Some people put clothes label sizes in their scrap book.

Am I Fat? Discover the ins and outs of your body weight.
Yes. I am overweight. I should be between 114 (small frame) and 149 (large frame). I'm 71kgs - 156lbs. I think my 'healthy weight' is about 65kgs. Maybe 60kgs. That's like 132 or so. so, 20 kgs to go. 5 kgs at a time. I can do it.
Do you love yourself?
"At the heart of personality is the need to feel a sense of being lovable without having to qualify for that acceptance."
-- Dr. Paul Tournier
How do you see yourself as unlovable?
Take a few minutes to write down why you perceive yourself to be unlovable. Look at the list and see if you can identify where those characterizations originated. Can you pinpoint old messages from parents, teachers, and friends that led you to negative conclusions about yourself? Are those messages valid today?
The beliefs we adopt as children usually don't hold when we view them objectively as adults. Can you let them go? Can you begin to see yourself as a unique expression of life, a genuine gift to the world?
"You, yourself, as much as anybody in the entire universe, deserve your love and affection."
-- Buddha
"Limitless like the ocean are your excellent qualities."

Daily Cosmic Calendar
While Mercury prepares for its Tuesday turnaround from retrograde to forward, the Moon leaves a void station in Capricorn by entering airy, universal Aquarius (4:08AM PDT) for a 2+ day transit. Aquarius Moon gives a renewed emphasis to maverick-like behavior, eccentricity, team sports, group projects, community events and networking. Tap into your intuition as a guide rather than just logic. This is accentuated by a Mercury-Uranus contra-parallel formation (2:34AM PDT) that can open your higher chakras and sense organs on etheric, astral and mental planes of being. Keep striving to put your key relationships, business plans and educational goals in a sublime condition as the Moon in Aquarius trines the Sun in Libra (4:14PM PDT) - followed 20 minutes later by an energy-concentrating Moon-Pluto parallel (similar to a union in the zodiac). Your productivity - particularly via a re-energized creative imagination - can soar this evening since Ceres in Libra makes a flowing trine to Neptune in Aquarius (11:24PM PDT). You can make headway with projects connected to photography, poetry, film and video work, the graphic and fine arts, music, dance and mystical studies. Meanwhile, late-night reading and research pay off with handsome rewards since there is a Moon-Jupiter parallel (exact at 12:55AM PDT tomorrow). Serious decision-making is still a no-no overnight since Mercury is poised for its shift in direction while several other challenging sky patterns vie for supremacy.
