Weight

Have you just ever stepped on a scale and freaked out about your weight or just took the numbers as what they are, numbers? Well I myself have decided to do something different something I have wanted for years! I have always wanted to start losing weight but I have never taken the time or the effort to do so; I would always say "tomorrow I'll start working out" but tomorrow for me never came. Weight for me was never one of the things I cared about until I looked at myself in the mirror and saw that my cheeks were getting BIGGER than usual, now that's when I told myself I had to do something!
I started working out and started a diet back in September 12 of 2012, and yes it was the hardest thing ever! I would eat whatever my mom would make but less, no chips, no soda, no candy no nothing bad. I started exercising and running at night after I knew I wasn't going to eat anymore so that way I would actually burn some weight. After doing my routine afterwards I would eat grape fruit because that burns some fat off. YES you can feel it burning your stomach. In November I decided to go to the doctor for my physical and the doctor like myself was impressed that I had lost 18 pounds! Knowing that I lost weight made me feel so good about myself. 
When Christmas came along I stopped working out, but once New years and once my eyebrows were healed from being tatted I restarted. I have like two weeks that I have started again and let me tell you, it seems harder this time than the first time! Right now in total I have lost 26 pounds and a jean size! 

I know that if I have lost this much in a couple a months I can keeping going. My motivation has gone up. If you are interested in losing weight I know that if I have come this far you can too! All you need is to have some time and dedicate it to yourself.

Assigned Entry #1

My opinion about blogs is that some are very quite interesting. Blogs are for anyone whether it's personal or professional. I find personal blogs more interesting to look at when it comes to my free time. Blogs nowadays are being used more frequently. Blogs can be used in many ways, for example they can be informative, personal, sports, humorous or for political views. Many people may not recognize it but blogs are everywhere, whether its any social media like Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, Instagram or etc.. Blogs are a good way to let others see your work and get some feedback upon it. 
One of the types of blogs I like are the Humorous blogs because they seem to be funny and are easy to grab the attention. Humorous blogs can pretty much make anybodies day. They can take a smile out of your face in a second. In the following link is a humor blog which I like because out of nowhere he's feeling sad but yet makes it funny.  http://hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/ 
Another blog I liked was the google blog. Google is probably everyones best friend. You can find anything you're searching for. Many people use google as their resource on finding a specific topic. Google has just made everything be so simple and easy. Google can be used for maps, images, web search, youtube, gmail and news. 
A blog I didn't like would be the the LinkedIn blog, it seemed so simple with nothing interesting. This blog needs to be more detailed inorder to capture ones attention, LinkedIn is more of a professional network which is why my interest in it is so low.
