I’m a slacker at updating my Tumblr! I told myself i would frequently to keep track of my nutrition program progress but with the amount of school work i have this semester, it’s just not happening. I’m zoning out of my 3 hour class right now because of how ungodly boring it is, which is why I’m finally updating :) Overall, I work out as much as i can BUT lately i’ve...
Another 3...
Yay! I lost 3 more pounds. Total of 6 so far. I’m pretty excited and proud of myself. I’ve been working hard in the gym at BSU and controlling my cravings. I feel fantastic and have a lot of motivation to continue. Drinking a lot of water as well as taking vitamins and eating clean food has been constant for the past 3 weeks.
I’m not just doing this to be “skinny”,...
My Writing Intensive Course
Today in my family narrative class, we got assigned to write 2 hand-written letters to ourselves. One will be you talking to you 5 years ago and giving advice on the future/warnings about what to look out for. And the other will be you talking to yourself 5 years from now and what you hope your future self is doing. I find this extremely fascinating. I know I’m going to warn my 17 year old...

I lost 3 lbs! Might not sound so exciting to you but hey! I did it. 12lbs away from my goal, then I’d like to gain 3lbs of muscle. I feel great!
When I get married, no matter how far away that day is, I want a very similar theme to our engagement photos. Classic, vintage, neutral colors. Done.

The results after week 1.
I went to my nutritionist this morning and I am doing well so far. I only cheated a few times and they were very minimal, small cheats. I did not lose significant weight because of my friend coming to stay for the week (ladies, ya feel me?) And normally during this time women gain 2-3 lbs of water weight. My weight actually went down 1 lb. so I’m assuming (and hoping) that I lost...

Am I doing the right thing with my life? I’m a business major, but I’m really passionate about the very opposite. I crave art, self-expression, vintage clothing and role models (James Dean, for example. I love that edgy style), photography, fashion, and extravagant make-up designs. Nothing catches my eye more than a glamour shot in Vogue. I drool over those high-end fashion photos. I...
It sort of hit me like a ton if bricks last night how if I didn’t have my family, I would be a pretty miserable, sad person. All it takes is a hug from my Dad or hearing my Moms laugh, and a lot of my stress/anxiety about life sort of disappears for a while. I’m staying in my dorm tonight and will be there all week and weekend long most likely. I don’t see myself coming home as...
The verdict is in, did I cave?
Sitting at the Ale House with a steaming bowl of buffalo chicken dip and chips made eating my baked scrod, broccoli, and sweet potato a little less enjoyable. However, I’ve come to find that I actually enjoy the taste of those foods! I truly don’t crave pizza, Wendy’s, or fried anything really, BUT, catch me on a day when caffeine and sugar has not been consumed and you will find...
The first day of a new lifestyle
Today I met with a nutritionist named Bobby. He was very animated and educated on the body and what proper nutrition really means. For the next 3 months, I’m going to be eating 6 small meals a day, all of which are high in proteins and vitamins. I will also be taking 3 different pills a day. A daily multi-vitamin, Chromate (curbs sugar cravings), and a fat burner to give the hard work...
Strong is the New Skinny
Next week I’m starting a 3 month Nutrition program. My goal is not to be super skinny. It is not to be a tooth pick. It is not to starve myself. My entire life I’ve always been broader, taller, and more muscular than most girls. As a cheerleader for 6 years, I was the one lifting them over my head. As a basketball player for 5 years, I was the center who went up against other tall,...

Adapting to a new Alicia
The hardest part about being alone for me is being alone. In 8th grade is when i entered my first serious relationship. I was 14 years old. Although that seems a bit ridiculous, at the time it made perfect sense to me (of course it did, i was a naive young girl who wanted to be in love). Having a crush on this boy since 3rd grade, I felt proud that our relationship lasted a whole year and a half....
