Skiing

Sorry for such a bad mood on Tuesday. That's what happens after eating a huge pack of cookies. So to prevent such days I am announcing a new challenge STOP THE SWEETS for 15 days. This means during Christmas I am not allowed to eat any cookie, sweet etc. Well, actually, I usually gain a lot during the holidays, especially from all the bad carbs, so this time I am saying STOP to: cookies, sweets, chocolate, cakes, white bread (sometimes I have cravings for it), sugar, jam... Instead I can have: fruits, nuts, yoghurt... Hm, so little dos and so much don'ts. I know, I know, life is unfair.

I think I love skiing. I like being in fresh air and just love that sliding feeling. However I have fear of height so not very much into downhill skiing. I usually choose children route for downhill skiing if there are no flat tracks for skiers. I like the snow, when it is not so freezing outside. Last year I was at some small skiing resort in Lithuania (I mean in my own country :D). We had been there for 4 days, but these days were wonderful. Sure, the second morning I couldn't get up, as all my muscles were hurting, but I had to, as my friends, very sporty girls, didn't feel any pain and got up without a trouble. The skiing routes were not long, as Lithuania doesn't have mountains, just hills. All the routes finished on the frozen lake. And the resort was in the forest, far from the city, so it was very relaxing, quiet and full of exercise 4 days. There are some photos from that trip. In the first one - my friend, she hasn't fallen down, she is posing :) The second - that's the frozen lake and the dark spot on it - me. And the last one - me. I guess then I weighed about 87 kg, so not very flattering photo. And the thing on my head is a hat, and actually it looks nice when I don't wear it :)

So after I had found out about my love to skiing, I decided to go to a skiing trip again. However this year there is no snow at all... Maybe I should visit the Alps in Austria or Slovakia and cope with my fear of height. An idea for future consideration. Have a good weekend :)

"Stop the Sweets" Day 1/15

Blame the season

Warning: Searching for inspiration, stop reading right now. Otherwise you could get unmotivated and bored. (instead visit Ails, Brooke, Rae or Donna)

I am afraid to weigh in again. I have to admit - I have no willpower. Last week was horrible food and exercise wise. I was eating all the time, then feeling heavy and not going to gym. Every day last week I was lacking energy, sleepy at any time of the day. In the evening I couldn't get sleep, just lying in the bed with my eyes open and in the morning I couldn't get up, was late to uni, then after uni, I immediately went to bed, as was deprived of sleep, then got up late in the evening, ate smth bad and unhealthy and in big quantities, after that tried to read some textbooks, do my assignments, however didn't manage and got back to bed to get more sleep, but unsuccessfully as my stomach was full and didn't let me sleep. And same things were happening every day. God, I must hate myself a lot. Whole week I was moody and getting questions from my friends what is going on with me? I felt sad and lonely, miserable. Sure, I can blame PMS for it's tricks, I can blame the winter for the cold weather, but deeply inside I know who is guilty. I am the one. I have really gained some more kilos, I even can see them sitting on my hips, stomach, cheeks, chin. Hate that feeling. I don't want to get back to the very beggining.

Not very motivating post today. Sorry, I think I have lost my motivation, if I ever have had one. I need to find it again ASAP. Do you know why we like reading other blogs? We need motivation and if someone gets lucky finding it, s/he shares it and we might get motivated too. Just might... This weekend I have read many motivating posts, found new amazing girls with their amazing blogs and nothing has happened, I still have zero motivation. I know, I am not going to inspire anyone, even myself. Sorry again.

How do you cope with stress? As my usual way to do that is eating. These days have been really crazy and stressful for me. Next week I have two exams and must deliver my term paper, which I haven't finished yet (just 3 pages from 25). I am soooo bad, I know. So if any of you knows a good way to fight the stress, please let me know.

About those inspirational blogs I have mentioned. First of all Ails. Magnificent girl, who in one year has lost 26 kg. Read her one year anniversary post, if haven't. Doesn't she look beautiful? :) Other girl is Brooke. She has experienced some troubles, but now she is back on track. That's where the real inspiration is - read her today's post. Last, but not least - two girls, two online friends, two WW models. I think you know who they are: Rae and Donna. They are doing great, even WW mag thinks the same ;) Actually I have realised that most of bloggers now are doing just great. Maybe because of the summer (as I read just Aussies' blogs). Good luck to you all ever after.

How about the Christmas mood? Anyone listening to Christmas songs? I am... a bit :) However the weather is not very Christmasish (oh, gosh, I made a new word - I actually meant Christmassy). I have too much work to think about the holidays. I remember then I was a kid, waiting for Christmas was amazing itself. Then I didn't wanted Christmas, I wanted the waiting. All the preparation, Advent calendar, songs, home decorating etc. And now I just have couple free days for what... major eating? Sorry, i am again becoming moody. Wish you everything the best.

In the evening when I can't get to sleep, I am dreaming. I wish my life is more organised and in control. And not just food wise. I would like it to be planned, eveything in order, then I could be more confident, less stressed. Sometimes dreams come true...

Some people have a foolish way of not minding, or pretending not to mind, what they eat. For my part, I mind my belly very studiously, and very carefully; for I look upon it, that he who does not mind his belly will hardly mind anything else. (Samuel Johnson)

PS: I have "borrowed" the image above from Flickr member kulkuri. He has a lot of nice pics, especially ones with the small white poodle :)

Up and down, up and down, up...

I am the perfect example of yo-yo. I can't believe that I really this morning weighed 77.9 kg. 78 kg is the cursed weight for me. I can't get out from there. I was so sure I would have a loss this week. Was good with my diet, exercised 4 times, drinked water etc. And gained 1,2 kg. Vicious circle...

The weekend was good. I was back at my parents. I spent Friday evening at beautician (actually she was more likely to be a doctor than beautician). I needed some advice about my hair and skin. On the Saturday I had my hair cut, then eyebrows and nails done. I know most of you have manicure or haircut as the treat, but for me it is more like a try to look prettier. The other half of the day was spent working as a driver. My parents were going to some official party and asked me to give them a ride. And then I had to wait till the midnight to drive them back :D
Sunday was rainy and boring. I was reading a book mostly - The parfume: The story of a murderer by Patrick Suskind (original title "Das Parfum" - it's German). Was out for an hour - to play bowling. Today I got up with sore muscles - first I thought that the pain is because of exercising and just now realised it is from bowling ;)

These last 3 weeks are going to be hard to all. All the deadlines for everything. I hope I won't get sick.

By the way, I am changing deadline for my Christmas goal as 74 kg. I won't manage it so why I should feel stressed? So now I would like to weigh 74 kg on Valentine's day 2007. Wish me luck. And good luck to you :)

Am I stupid?

Or not? Or maybe I just don't know how to use Blogger. I still can't change my weight ticker. As the html is not working... Plus I think I am stupid as I don't understand the simple thing - I have to learn to pass the exams. My dumb brains think I don't need to read books and memorize. Maybe I could change them to smth better and more clever. I should offer that on eBay :)

It seems Christmas is going to be snowless. It is not cold enough to have snow but not warm enough not to have poodles and dirt. I am going to buy Christmas gifts next week, just still not sure what to buy. My presents to my Dad from 3 last Christmas now lie in the bottom of the drawer, literally. Killing work.

LMS, thank for leaving such a nice comment ;) I liked your photos from USA too, just I was not confident to leave a comment. It seemed you had a great journey. I would like to visit the biggest towns of States too, just I guess for me it would be more convenient to drive on the right side. Driving on the left side would be scary, so I guess, I shouldn't rent a car if visit Australia :)

Now about the hair loss. Sorry if this paragraph doesn't seem very appealing. Did anybody experience serious hair loss? I can't stop it. My hair has been falling out for about 5 months now. And I have been taking vitamins and using special shampoo for 4 months. But it is still falling. Now I have just about a quarter or even less of my original hair volume. The reason is not my diet - I eat enough proteins and fibre, and it can't be the water or diseases. The only explanation is stress. But how should we prevent stress in nowadays world? Well, to say the truth, my hair is growing, just not the new ones. During these months of taking pills, my hair has grown about 15 cm. It would be ok, if the same thing doesn't happen in the other places, not just head. I don't have too much money to spend on depilation.

A gap...

What have I been doing these weeks? Nothing. Every Monday I was afraid to see how much I weighed so I just skipped. This morning I said to myself: Enough, let's look. And I did thet. Thanks God it is a loss :) So I have lost another bit - 0.7 kg and now it is 76.7 kg.

Nothing new to comment. This weekend I wanted to see some new movie. However I didn't want to wait some time for any good and famous one and went to 'Step up'. Hm, a bit boring and made me sad. This type of movies can't be allowed to watch alone. Really, that makes a huge harm for your self confidence. There were only pairs watching it. Well, actually they did everything except watching the movie.

Smth wrong with the blogger, I can't change some adds of the layout, I can't see my tags. I hope tomorrow it will be ok and I will be able to put everything in order.

I have made another before after photos album. It is http://public.fotki.com/smthtoshare/weight-loss/ and the password is vitutia. Feel free to look over it.

Bye.

Weigh in

77.4 kg today, so this means loss of 0.5 kg. Very unexpected. I thought I would gain again, as I wasn't very good food wise and exercised just twice. Well, a surprise... I just could imagine how much I could have lost if I had done everything perfectly (well, tenses are not my forte).

Did I mention I hate winter? Oh, yeah, twice... And I still hate it. In the morning I thought today would be just one more cold windy day, but now... it started to snow and turned to snowstorm and finally to hail. Sure winter is lovely season when celebrating Christmas or for skiing, it is nice in the evening when you sit with a cup of hot herbal tea and look through the window into the falling snowflakes. But it is horrible when you have to go somewhere. And surely we have. I was going to the university today and thinking "I am not going to do that tomorrow, tomorrow I'll be more clever, I will go there by the car". It is just 15 minutes on foot for me to reach the uni, so it would be a huge waste to go there by car. But again it so unpleasant weather.

Maybe I just should move to some other country, where is no winter, just summer throughout the year. I could lie on the beach all the time, there the sun would always shine and the nature would always be green and I would be happy. As now I am always complaining about everything. Don't think I am so unhappy person. I think there are more nice things in my life than bad, but somehow it happens I can't stop complaining.

Yesterday I made a trip to the shops. I needed warm boots for the winter. I still need as there weren't anything I could buy. But I bought a shirt. Pink one. And it was size M. Today I have arranged my clothes and realised strange thing - mostly I wear size L and some clothes are M. I am not XL anymore. But if now at 78 kg I am L/M, so what size will I be when I weigh 65 kg? Size S? Me? That's smth too strange for me to understand.

In the German class today I have learnt two new words (there have been more of them): traurig and glucklich, which means sad and happy. And the teacher asked me: "Bist du traurig oder glucklich?"( Are you happy or sad?) I really didn't know the answer and not because I didn't understand the meaning of question. Am I happy? Or not?

People

What I actually want to talk today about is the people I admire. And these are three girls, three bloggers, three weight-losers. I am sure they all are well known to you: Kenz, Philippa and Nicky :) Every day when I log on my computer, I log on just to check if there is a new post of these girls. They keep me inspired, make me understand that if they can, I can too. I have been reading Nicky's blog for over two years now. When I first found it, I thought that she is so determined. Her posts are so joyful, always full of optimism, of action. It was Philippa, who inspired me to start a blog (well, not directly). I was so amazed of her weight loss journey. It seemed that she had no trouble in losing and maintaining, but I am sure it was as hard to her as to anyone of us. I found Kenz's blog about 5 months ago. She is really determined to reach her goal and she really does look amazing after losing 3 sizes (or maybe more). I like not just her writing style, but her dressing style too. I know I am not fluent writing in English as much as I want. I am fluent in my native tongue and I like writing diary or essays, just it is hard to express my thoughts in other language, when you actually first of all have to translate every word.
So what I wanted to say, is these girls are amazing ;) Good luck to them.

Winter..

The first snow this winter... Even it is still autumn. It is cold outside, and I have no wish to go for a walk or just to a shop nearby. It is much better to do that in the car. Oh and plus I am ill with the flu... Maybe that's how I can explain this week's gain. Or maybe I just was too lazy. O the first half of week I lived on my own, without mommy's food but with my exercises. And the weekend... I came home. That's a huge mistake. And now I have the result. I still feel weak, have cold, but I hope to correct my behaviour and this gain. Although a gain of 0.3 kg is not that bad, I feel guilty. Actually, when I eat wrong food I fee lazy to exercise and then I feel guilty and then I eat even more. Vicious circle. And I am a bit crazy too :D

I am so not into the winter. I want summer back!!! Now I have to change the tyres of my car, as it is slippery on the road and it needs bigger grip... So incidental expenses.

The Halloween is coming (in the States) and here we have holidays too. Just this day is called Holiday of all Saints and it is intended to hallow your gone relatives. Then people grace cementary with flowers and candles, visits graves of their precious gone people.
Ok, so it's time for me to get back to the bed as I feel cold again.

Good luck.

Halfway

So as you can see I've lost half of my unwelcome kilograms. I am halfway there... I am not sure if 65 kg (24.1) is really my goal weight. My supergoal would be 53 kg (BMI 19.7) , I guess. When I thought about me as a slim person, I always thought this weight was a good idea. And now I am not sure. I have never been lower than this 77 kg weight. I am afraid I won't manage to lose anything. Today I reached 3 my goals: BMI is lower than 30 (it is 28.9), halfway and now I weigh less than I did on the 15th of February, 2001. So now I weigh less than then I was 14. Well, great, isn't it?

On the other hand today is the worst day ever. Well, I have a car... I live in the dormitory, so there is not any parking place, but there a lot of cars. So we have to leave them on the grass, or actually, ex-grass, as there is no grass anymore. I have been parking my car there for about two years now and everything was ok. Just today I got summons because of violation of administrative law. I have to pay fine of 150 LTL... (This is about 50 USD). Sure, it can look like not a lot, but to me it is important. I can live with that money for about a month. And now I don't have this much... I feel weak and hopeless now... I hope this changes soon.

See you in better times

Christmas Challenge: First Day

I know I am soo late for that type of challenge as there are left just 9 weeks till Christmas. But I want to lose these 5 kgs. I don't expect a lot as late autumn and winter is always the worse time for me to exercise or eat healthy food. Ok, so no more than 1500 kcal for me per day, three times a week cardio and two times strength workout. Oh and at least 1,5 l water per day.
It sounds funny, but I am dependant on scales and weighing in. At least three times a day. So this week I am going to try not to weigh in at all till the next Monday. I have just hidden the scales so they won't capture my attention :)

This morning I got up and got ready to go to university. And then I noticed there was no electricity. It was ten o'clock. So I skipped my school as I couldn't have driven out through the gates as they were electric-power driven. Not funny at all... I had to sit at home till 5 pm. Booring... The computer, TV, stove, microwave... Nothing worked...

I weighed in this morning - 78.6 kg. It's a start :)

Ciao miei amici ;)

I am back

Hello after such a long time :) Well it's already fall here (and maybe spring somwhere else). My last post shows my real personality - ladies and gents let me present you the sluggard of the year (no, of the century) - ME. Yesterday I was writing my diary and thought why I didn't do that here. Hard hard question and easy answer. So you have already known the answer :)
Anyway, I'm happy to be here again. In fall I feel kind of depressed (and actually I feel depressed all the time, except in summer) so I am going to make you feel the same. Joking :)
My summer wasn't very adventurous but it was nice time just because it was summer. Sometimes boring, sometimes not, but always hot and shiny. I was on the small trip to Italy - just a week and a half. But it was amazing. Now I have a new dream - I want to spent my honeymoon in Venezia. Sure, I don't have a husband yet, but there is plenty of time (I hope there is, as I've heard gossips that after 100 years there will be no Venice - it is going to be drowned).

This year at university I've started learning two new languages - Italian and German. Oh well. comparing to these two, English is sooo easy. But I really enjoy learning them. Maybe I had to choose other profession instead of Law... Maybe languages :)

I am not sure about my weight now. Well I am somewhere in 80s. I am going to weigh in on Monday, so then we will see. Oh, one more thing I want to share - I came to like exercising. I just hate going to gym. :D But I have to make myself to love it or at least to attend it :D

See you soon

Arrivederci ;)

Lazy...

I have been sooo lazy these days. And still I am... I am lazy to learn (and exams are coming), to cook (and I am eating all the crap... mostly), to post (I think you have already realised that). I think this is because of food, I ate. To begin with, I have to confess that last week almost every day was "blessed" with a slice of cake (or cursed?). Well, it was my birthday and I celebrated it three days in a row (not alone). And everybody felt that they had to make me eat even a bite of dessert (of course, I am guilty too).Plus I thought I would try smth different than Atkins. Well, this also wasn't very successful. I really can't eat carbs... or a lot of carbs. My organism even doesn't like apples. And to answer to Jac's question how I can be on Atkins - I had tried many diets and Atkins suited me the best. I wanted to change my eating habits not only to lose weight. I wanted to feel better. I am not sure, maybe I am in pre-diabetic stage, even my blood test didn't show anything wrong. Or maybe I have problems with thyroid (as my Mom). I always feel tired (and lazy), and if I eat carbs, I feel heavy, my stomach stops working. And then I tried Atkins (which is mostly proteins) I suddenly understood that I feel better, have more energy. So that's the reason.

This week I've lost 0.6kg. Yay, after all sweets. So now I weigh 82.9 kg - 4.9kg to the lowest weight ever (unoficially the lowest weight was 76kg , but I weighed that after non stop 10 hours dance marathon, so I consider 78 kg as my lowest weigh). I want to weigh 78 kg for 7th of August because that's then I am going to Italy. Just to visit the country, not to live or learn :) Anyway I have about 7 weeks to go, so I need to lose 0.7 kg every week. I am not sure if that's possible. I really look forward to the end of my exams, when I will be able to go home. There it is simplier to eat better and exercise more and don't worry about the money :)

But now I am still here and I should do smth with myself. So everyday I should:

• exercise in the morning;
• eat 4 times a day;
• go to bed not later than 11 pm;
• drink a lot of water;
• stick to plan.

And learn learn learn, otherwise I won't pass exams ;)

So, see you someday ;)

Happy Birthday to me :)

Today all people, radio programs, newspapers are discussing the date of the day. 06-06-06. Oh yeah, it's a weard, mystery day... These three 6s stand here not by coincidence, it's because of devil's power... and so on... Are people dumb, o just they look so... I hope all these articles and talk are just for fun, not seriously.

Well, 20 years ago in a small hospital a little nice girl has came to the world. And today I present you... myself :D It's a pity, but I am not going to celebrate my birthday in the short run as now I have a lot of work preparing for exams, and most of my friend too. So maybe in July...
And still I got millions of greetings not only today, but also yesterday (maybe they just don't know my exact birth date :D). I feel happy :) It's nice to know that you have so many friends.

I feel happy for one more reason. This week I've lost 0.5 kg and despite that it's a small loss, now I weigh 83.5 and two months ago when I was formulating my goals I wanted to be in 83s for my birthday. And now I am! Old clothes are starting to fit me. Especially those which are stretchy :D As most of these clothes were bought when my weight was about 79-80 kg, after just few weeks they all will fit perfectly. I hope :D
Lately I've been thinking about trying WW Points system...As now I am on Atkins and I don't think it suits me the best. I like vegetables, fruit and bread, and this food is prohibited here. Well, there is GI diet, which is similar to Atkins, but allows more veggies and fruit... and still I don't know. I've heard a lot of success stories on WW, and people really seem to like this program. However... there is one HUGE minus... In Lithuania we don't have WW, nor Jenny Craig nor any other program, which motivates, where are meetings, leaders or counselors. So all I can have is just webpages and their point counters. No Guides or WW food. As I've said before, Lithuania doesn't need any weight loss programs. All people are slim... and these, who are not, don't go anywhere, always sit at home, are shy and feel embarrassed of their body so it seems that there are no fat people. That's the truth... And still I'll try smth similar to WW Points :)

Have a good week ;)

Edit: I can't believe what I have just found. It's amazing. Have you ever heard about SparkPeople? It is the best online diary for weight loss I have ever seen. It has everything you need. Believe me :) Plus - it's absolutely free.

Season of birthdays

This morning I had very first exam. English :) some listening, reading and essay writing. Topic of the essay - advantages and disadvantages of common law system. Oh well, I know a lot about case law, but at that time I couldn't remember hardly anything. So pluses and minuses, I named, happened to be very funny and unclear. I hope maybe flowers and chocolates we gave to lecturer will change a bit her mind about my evaluation:)

After the test I visited some shops :D I just love shopping, especially for gifts (contrary to the most of people). I have many friends, who are born in May or June so most of them are Gemini (btw, I've just seen that Philippa is also a Gemini - happy birthday for all of you, Geminis) ;) Today I bought presents for my two girlfriends, Agne and Aiste. Aiste's birthday is on 3th of June, Agne's on 7th and mine is on 6th, so maybe this is an explanation why we are so close friends :) Anyway, look what I bought for Aiste

These are two sheeps (not a donkey as my brother thought) because Aiste is sheepaholic... :D She has an obsession for sheeps :) and Agne will get a voucher to buy smth in a shop, called "Silver City" (not only silverware, but also many other types of necklaces and earrings).

This week I've lost 2.2 kg... Wow... Next week I will definetily have a gain. Last week I had some problems with my stomach and digestion so that's how I can explain the big loss. But I am happy ;)

P.S. You can do anything in life fat or skinny (quote from someone's of you blog, sorry I can't remember whose exactly)

Have a good week ;)

Summer...

Today there was horrible storm. As at that time I was sleeping, woke up very scared and didn't understand what was happening. Huge lightening, thunder. I thought it was the end of my days :D and now the sun is shining and the sky is clear and blue. Like April weather, when it is already the end of May.

Today I got up at seven. Too early for me. After several hours I suddenly felt very bad. And still don't know if it is because of getting up so early or maybe I ate something bad yesterday. I still feel weak.

I feel guilty about the lack of posts or comments on other blogs. There are about 30 people, whose blogs I read everyday. And I'm afraid of commenting. Most of bloggers are friends, they know each other very well and can say lovely things, when I feel the odd one. Plus the language barrier. Now I have been learning English for 11 years, but yet it is not my native tongue, I don't speak everyday it. Actually this year I absolutely don't use simple words or phrases, just legalese. I think I am good at creating various stories, I like writing diary, but all these things are being done in Lithuanian. So sorry for me being so unsociable :)

It is strange to tell everybody about my weight struggles. I have always been trying to hide that I feel uncomfortable about my weight. So that's why I don't talk a lot about that :)
This week I lost just 0.6 kg :( precious little.

That's all for now. Good luck ;)

Monday

It's already Monday.The weather isn't so good anymore. Rain and high wind. So welcome summer lost its train. However on Saturday it was quite sunny and warm. I spent some time by the lake. Actually, driving to the lake we got lost and about an hour we were wandering the city. Yep, I am bad driver :D

1st photo - The castle of Trakai on the other side of Galves lake.
2nd photo - Sail in the lake
3rd - a butterfly on the bridge

On Sunday I and my friend did some shopping or to be precise - a lot of window-shopping. I found perfume I want and saw that my friend had half of fragrance shop. Gucci, Elizabeth Arden, Chanel, JLo, Burberry and lots more. She is crazy about scents (she doesn't own a shop, they all are hers). Other half of day we spent at home doing our nails.

Top - R's hands, below - G's :) and the nails are their real, not plastic ;)

And that's mine :) Nails are not long enough to look nice.

About the weight loss. This week I've lost 0.8kg. Little :) But better than gain.

Oh well, that's all for now. Good week for all.

Finally...

Thanks God, it's over. All learning learning learning thing. Learning instead of sleep, instead of meeting friends.For a while though. In June I'll again have a bunch of various exams. Even on my birthday (lecturer wasn't so kind as I had expected and didn't let me not take exam and didn't give me a ten just for my beautiful eyes :D). Today I got two simple questions.Maybe too simple as my answers were very short.Constitutional reforms of 1988-1990 years and types of laws. Ok, it's over :)
My eating these days was very bad. I'm emotional eater. As I was very nervous I ate and ate. Oh well, this is also over.
On Saturday we are planning to go to Pie Gala. Actually it is similar to a picnic near the lake, but I still don't know if I should go.

The lake and the castle look nice, especially in summer. But there are a lot of tourists and little of space. My friends really want me to go but I am a bit lazy, so I don't know.

I like the weather these days. It's quite warm, fair. Almost summer. But it's a disadvantage when you should learn. I just can't wait when everything will be over.

Goodbye ;)

Weigh in

it seems like I do nothing but don't have time for anything :D It has been a week from my last post. Lazy lazy lazy girl.:)
All weekend (maybe it is more than weekend: thursday - monday) I spent at my parents as I am a student and live in the dormitory near university in the capital of country and my parents not (of course they do not live in students' dormitory :D). So a lot of bad eating. On the other hand, there is one good reason - my parents have eliptical trainer

I just love it :) So I work out every evening and maybe that's the reason of my loss :) So this week I've lost 1.8 kg.! I am very happy. It is more than last week :)

This week seems to be hard for me. I have a very important speaking test. A lot of topics to learn and little time to do that. If I don't pass the test I won't be allowed to take my exams :( Hope I'll do my best

Good luck for you all!

1st loss :)

So today is the big day :D It's my weighing day. Thanks God, I lost :)
So the loss is - 1.4kg. It's good, really. However, yesterday, I watched The Biggest Loser (American series, 1st season) and I saw disappointment in the eyes of participants when they had lost less than 3kg... interesting :) should I feel disapointed? NO :D
I'd like to thank Amanda for her comments. Amanda, you are really sweet and I think your friends are happy to have you as a friend. :)
Ok, this post is going to be very short, 'cause I'm very tired after learning civil law and doing extracurricular activities. Love you ;)
Vita

Hey again,

it is already Sunday and I haven't done anything. I have some test next week, so I need practise for them. Almost all Saturday I spent in general meeting of students association I belong to. All day voting, working on decisions and proposals. Later I met with my two dear girlfriends R and G. We did nothing, but talking all the evening. And then I got invited to the unofficial part of general meeting. In other words, it just was a party in the bathhouse. We have such tradition - after meeting to have a party there. So I come home just in the morning :)

I want to tell you story of my life in photos :)

Hi world :)

sounds funny :D anyway, I'd like to introduce myself. My name's Vita (like Latin life), in June I'll be 20. I'm a young Lithuanian girl (ok, ok, not very young). I should feel grown-up, but i don't. Hey, don't judge me. It's still my best years.I am studying law at the university. I think I kind of like it... :D (yep, not very much, but maybe it's just my laziness)

The reason, why I am starting a blog... many... I was inspired by one person, blogger Philippa. She has just got rid of all her overweight and did that online. If you read her blog, you'll see she was at her goal weight just for her 1st anniversary. As you understood, I have some problems with my weight. Big serious problems, especially in LT (Lithuania). This country is heaven for men eyes. Believe me :D and what to do if you are not a model, wearing XS size clothes... difficult question :) oh, well, I am not even similar to these girls :) but just let me do everything what I can and you see miracles :)

See you!
