Come be a part of Team Awesome!  Everyone welcome!

oh believe me, i don't blame you guys for thinking that way. i am right there with you...

I don't really have a scale and I think that's a good thing at this point.  I've been going by the fit of my clothes and things ain't good.  :P

i've got a scale because it keeps me from stressing out and im much more in tune with how things i eat and what i do affects me.

I've been in denial and completely out of tune with how things I eat affect me for about... um... a year.  Since I met N, really.

It is well past time for me to get back with the program.

lets at least walk ALOT when i'm there, k megs?  to counteract all the drinking?  or at least help a little bit?  haha.

and then when i get back, i'm done with this eating like a crazy person...

Definitely.  I love walking!

due to the fact that it's getting colder and dark earlier, my daily walking is getting cut waaaay down. i need to make up for it by doing something. i really need to get back into the gym.

NEED TO! 

I am going to join the gym in my town.  I haven't done it yet because I have too many day plans in the next two weeks to make it a good idea financially. 

Now that I think about it, though, that's a dumb excuse and I should just join anyway.

i'm not a gym person.  i don't think i ever will be.

so my plan once i get back is to walk in the evenings if it's not raining...and do exercise videos inside if it is.

oh, and to eat better.  i know how to eat right...i just fail miserably...

Aw, poor Nick is feeling really bad.  I gotta go drive him home.  Will check in later!

oh no...okay, talk to you later megs!

 awesome!!

grrr...so tomorrow night P is going out with his friend. he hasn't come out with me and my friends in FOREVER for one reason or another, mostly reasons out of his hands. anyway, they got free tix to a comedy show saturday night right next to our favorite bar (cheap drinks before hand that means). so i texted and asked if he wanted to go. he said "yeah i think i'm free saturday."

you THINK you are? ummm...no. if you are going out with your guy friend tomorrow and i'm not invited, then you ARE free saturday because you are hanging out with me. and if you aren't, i will be pissed.

i have to admit i'm getting effing sick of the fact that any time he hangs with his friends it's just "the boys." i'm all for guys night, but i think once a week is a bit of an overkill, especially when it's a weekend night. why can't it be every wednesday or something?  

yeah, i can see how that'd be frustrating, especially since you're a planner.  it's weird that he doesn't invite you...even if he did guy's night friday, and then guys night + you on saturday...y'know?

 like i understand guys night, and i'm all set going out with him and his buddies and feeling like the only girl tagging along. thing is, my friends all hang out as couples, so when he's with his friends and i'm with mine, i'm the 3rd or 5th wheel. or i feel like i'm on a double date with a guy who isn't my boyfriend, who i've told you about. either way, sucky.

 exactly.  i know you well enough to know you're not "that girl".  you're fine with him doing things without you.  just like you like girls nights sometimes.

talk to him...it sounds like you guys have really good communication most of the time, so i'm sure you'll work it out.
