Blah

Ok.  So, now that I have the new big girl job, I am well aware that I will need to buy a big girl wardrobe.  Those that know me know this is not something I look forward to.  But, TFA staff doesn't joke around with their dress, and the look at the office is "stylish professional dress"...  Black pants and a white shirt are not going to cut it.

Though it will cost me a small fortune, this is actually a good thing!  It will motivate me to work out.  BECAUSE, if I already have to spend money on something I don't want, it will SUCK even more if I have to spend that money buying clothes that make me uncomfortable or that I think I look bad in, when really it's my weight and body I am uncomfortable with, not the clothes.

So, it's on!  This week I've set a few goals, and so far I've met them all!

Goal 1) do something active (preferably go to the gym or jog) each day.
So far I'm doin' great!  Tuesday was not that great, but I did squeeze in a (very) short dog walk... but it counts!

Goal 2) Don't spend any money til Friday
Easier said than done.  I am notorious for buying coffee or snacks, things I could easily make myself.  By planning all meals and snacks over the weekend, and prepping coffee the night before, I've managed to not spend a DIME this week!  Go me!

Goal 3) Study for the LSAT.  Every day.
I figure if I take this thing piece by piece it will be easier.  So, I am devoted to studying about 1 hour a day, no exceptions.  So far I've had to squeeze this in on prep periods and in short chunks after school, but I've been successful!

One day at a time...  I will succeed!  :)
