cmon and get gone

soooo its friday. my favorite day. except today kind of.. was really blahhh. haha. i woke up kinda sore this morning from last night's workout- since we didnt have that many people show up for the thighs class, our instructor took the smaller group up to the track and we lunged and squatted around the entire thing. haha. and we also did this excersize called 'wall squats' where you put your back against the wall with your legs in a 90 degree angle, like you're sitting in a chair. its AGONIZING haha. we held the position for 30 seconds, 3 times. the second time i felt like my legs were going to explode! haha and when we let go,i almost literally collapsed, like my legs couldnt hold my weight. ive experienced that like once before. its weird. but needless to say it really worked me out.
now, where was i?
ohn yeah, sore... well i went to the gym anyway, cause i have have have to before weighing in. so i went, suffered a little... i wasnt into it and i hd to leave after only burning 700 calories (i know, i know it seems like alot but for my body for some reason it isnt...) to get to my class. i weighed in and i lost 1.6 pounds!... i say it with an exclamation point now but im still trying to get myself excited about it. i dunno. its a loss! and its more than i set my goal for. but. its still disappointing when i worked really hard all week. but you reap what you sow, i ate way too much last weekend. this weekend i wont be making that mistake and hopefully ill be rewarded for it.

a few hrs ago i thought i had blown my day, after going to the dining hall. i made some popcorn on the stove (my exroommate is keeping my microwave hostage, ... rgh) and i had intended to eat it all but i stopped halfway and threw the rest out! so i feel good about that. i closed the kitchen, too. its funny how little things like that make me proud and happy when a 1 lb loss makes me disappointed. oh well.
i'm gonna watch some more biggest loser and then eventually head to the gym. i figure ill go a little later though, like 10 or so when not many people'll be there. which will be nice, for a change. the gym is peaceful on weekend nights haha.
