ParaDo Surprise Gift!

Monday, July 6th, 2009 | 60 Comments

My sweet friend sent me a surprise package today.
It was an adorable bag filled with trinkets!
She also included a cute inspirational card to cheer me on :noki4:
She knows how busy I’ve been and working so hard that she wanted to cheer me up~~
I love the hand mirror! I’ve been wanting a big one like this! And it’s all such fun sophisticated princess style




A hand mirror and compact mirror!! Plus nail polishes and lip gloss! All from ParaDo

Nail polish and lip gloss! ALL glittery!

Getting back to work after the holiday was hard! I wanted just 1 more day to enjoy relaxing. On Saturday we went out and ate instead of staying in and making hot dogs or something. It was really great! I even celebrated with a margarita I put my hair up in a big bun since it was looking awful that morning. I also wore this marine-style onepiece. I really like it, but I feel like it makes my chest look ginormous

I switched from heels to flip flops when we went to watch fireworks in the field . Yea, and ignore my bizarre facial expressions, LOL :haha:

I have better photos but my digital is downstairs LOL.
I bought these 60 calorie chocolate sticks as a treat. Yet to try them but they’re just typical Hershey’s chocolate just in portion control.

モモエリの作り方 and Cawaii’s ヤセて Diet Book~~!

I ordered Momoeri’s tutorial book & Cawaii’s diet book from last year. They both have DVDs with them Sadly I haven’t time to even look at the DVDs :whaaaaaat::F
So I’ll share more about them later this week. I’m excited to have the diet book because I have 1 place for a bunch of great exercises to reference!

My diet’s going… well, phenomenally!
It got a lot easier when I started tracking what I ate through the Livestrong site. If I count the weight I lost starting in May I’ve lost in total 11 lbs [4.9kg] this summer! The weight I’m at now I told myself I’d be OK with. BUT I think I really can get back to my normal weight that I was when I was in college! You see, when I went from living in a dorm and eating cafeteria food to living in an apartment and eating NOTHING but fast food… I gained 20 lbs! Literally in 1 year. It was really annoying. I went up 3 pant sizes which sucked because I was broke and buying new jeans was expensive! Hahahahahaaaa. But then I just never tried to get rid of that weight after getting a real job and eating healthier, home cooked foods again. So it’s just sat there

I know there’s things I’m never doing again. :breakfast:

I’m never going to drink non-diet soda (ok maybe just 1 once a year! I gotta have a Barq’s root beer fully sugared at least once a year! )
Sugar Free Jello at 10 calories is my new BFF
Buying 2L bottles of Green Teas is TOTALLY worth the price (at 0 calories it wins over my old choice of GATORADE!)
Dreamfields Low Carb pasta and Shirataki noodles are LOVE
Egg beaters make amazing Santa Fe omelets at only 80calories! Fill you up!
Steamed cabbage is the shit and I’ll never tire of cabbage & dumpling soup! (so low cal!)
Chocolate on a daily basis is insanity and I can’t believe I allowed myself such gluttony!!

Um, I think that’s it for now! :hii1:

I’m going to get ready for bed now~!
