Serious Post and Goals.

This was suppooooossseeddd to be a blog to keep track of my fitness... lol.

So, I am just going to lay it all out.

Getting Fit is a Tough Road.

Hey Everyone,

How have you all been doing? Recently I've been very down about my weight since even though I have pretty much always lived a sedentary lifestyle.. I've always been sitting around 113~118.I've gone up to 124lbs and it's very hard because even though it's about 9lbs... none of my pants really fit anymore!

I've been working out, but the scale doesn't move... which is discouraging.

Anna (I'm So Jelly)

Thank you so much Anna! You're one of my biggest inspirations! You are gorgeous, always eating yummy food, and you're so sweet and always helpful! Despite being crazily busy, you always take the time to answer my questions, comment on my blog, and I'm so happy!!

I LOVE READING YOUR BLOG, AND I LOVE READING YOUR BEAUTY TIPS!

Thank you so much Anna, I'm so happy to receive this!

I give myself very good advice, but I very seldom follow it. |:

Well, I really need to get my act together. Since moving out, my conscientiousness has drastically fallen. Leaving me with a pitiful GPA, and generally I have always attended classes... but this semester, I have been very bad about it. My friend always wonders if I have dropped. XD;

Also, aside from studying, I haven't really been working out lately either. I do feel very sick and stressed lately, and I'm sure working out would help, but I just keep letting myself get distracted. I need to seriously set some priorities! D:

I can't wait for later today though. :3 I better go to bed now. D:

This needs to be a sticky.

These are scientifically proven facts to make you happier! If you're interested, go ahead and pick up the book.
