Good morning, my lovelies. Every time I write a salutation on my blog, I feel embarrassed because nobody is reading it. So who am I talking to?
Today is going to be a good day. I'm going to go to my new school, which always makes me happy. I'm also just happy to get out of the fucking house. Rargh, I really hate having to stay at home all the time.

Later-
Oh, and I forgot to tell you something. I have this pair of pants that I used to wear, they are pinstripe slacks and they are absolutely amazing. They were one of my favorite pair of pants, but when I ballooned to 170, I couldn't fit in them any longer. A month ago I tried to put them on and I could get them on, but I couldn't button them...well, although they are way too tight about the waist and I would never dream of wearing them in public, I got them zipped and buttoned! Great! I am so happy. I can't wait until I start wearing them again. I have three pairs of pants that I love but can't wear any more...I can't wait to start wearing them again.

Being Adelle
Well, I decided to share a little bit of something with you. Adelle isn't my real name, duh; it's a pseudonym, and a great one. Adelle is the better me, the one who drives, who is 132 lbs., who is happy. Adelle is intelligent and kind, and really unique. I feel like I'm these things, but I need to be the best I can be. She is the one I want to be. I got the idea because I always wanted to change my name, because I hate the one I have. This is not the person that I want to be. I don't want to be overweight. This idea of me being a better person, being Adelle, is something that motivates me. I know it sounds completely insane, but it's true. :D
Later...
This last weekend, I got a fantastic compliment that I would like to just revel in. My friend, who doesn't easily give out compliments, told me that the reason that I look so EXTREMELY BUSTY and most comments about me involve my breasts is because my D cup boobs are out of proportion with the rest of my body. She told me that the rest of my body was actually really small, and my waist is tiny. I felt so happy, because I love busty women with tiny waists. Later on, she told me that I don't even look chubby, I just don't look skinny. That was just brilliant. I'm happy that I don't look chubby- I still look good, even though I'm overweight. How great will I look when I'm 132? We'll see! I really hope my breasts don't get smaller as the rest of me does.

Did you hear that Jessica Simpson lost 10 lbs. in 10 days? They were flaunting that on the cover of some magizine. Fucking great, good job promoting more unhealthy dieting. When you lose weight so quickly like that, it'll come right back. God, can't anybody understand that? She probably just went on a crash diet.

Green Day concert!
Last night I went to the Green Day concert, and it was incredible. It was definitely worth the money and the nervousness. Not only was the music awesome, but it made me realize a few things about myself, too. For example; I can't be everybody's buddy. That is not my personality. I tried to be that way. I went to the concert last night with this completely vapid, boy crazy airhead, and it just made me frustrated to the point of near tears. I'll have to remember that for future reference. Anyway, yesterday I did pretty well. I grazed a little bit, but I was hanging out with my friend, who doesn't have meals set at certain times like I do. And you know how it is; if you see somebody else eating, you have to chow a bit, too!

I love walking. Why don't I do it more often? I don't know, I guess I forget that I love it. Well, hopefully I'll be able to force myself to get up early tomorrow morning and go for an early walk. The way I've been sleeping lately, it should be really easy. I completely forgot to write the details of my health program thing...I'm trying to eat 1200 calories a day, which I've been pretty much successful at, and excercising off 200 calories a day, which gives me a deficit of 500 calories a day.
Well, my day begins at a late 5:37 am. I woke up this early yesterday, too, only yesterday I promptly fell back asleep and proceeded to sleep until noon. Today, I'm not so lucky. I don't understand why I've been sleeping so terribly recently.
I haven't really been one to worry much. While everybody else was fretting over something or another, I was always the one who was sitting back and thinking "Why is everybody so stressed? It's just a test (or quiz, or whatever)." But I can't help but think that maybe my insecurities about starting another school year at a new school is what's bothering me. What else could it be?
I think that I just think to much. From the second I wake to the moment...or moments, as the case may be...I fall asleep, I'm just thinking about stuff. Mostly about my interactions with other people and whether or not they were the right ones, blah blah blah. Really stupid stuff, you know?
I'm mostly ashamed of myself for some reason or another. Embarrassed is the word, actually. Like, "I shouldn't have said that to so and so," or "I shouldn't have done that, that was dumb." It all goes round and round until I need a Vicodin badly. It's really irritating.

Okay, let me tell you really what's up.
I just went out with my friend, but I still feel lonely. It's pissing me off big time. I just feel so ashamed that I spend most of my time alone, watching television. What's so bad about me that nobody wants to hang out with me, or even talk to me? What's wrong with me? I don't know. I don't know when or if things are going to get better.

blah blah
I've been abusing my blog lately. Sorry about that.
WTF am I talking about? I haven't dissapointed anybody...nobody's reading this, what does it matter? I could stop writing this and it wouldn't matter. Whatever...All I'm looking for is a little support you know? Somebody somewhere is going through the same things I am and I would like to have some contact with them. But I guess that you can't always get what you want.
Anyway, just saw Julie and Julia. Great movie, it was the first viewing in my area. I won the tickets because I ate candy faster than this one other chick...I didn't, really, I still had some candy left on the wrapper, but the guy who called it was in love with me apparently. You know what happens when you go to the movies though...movie food! I had 4 medium sized cookies, a hot dog, some popcorn, and a SoyJoy bar. I also had a diet Dr. Pepper. I wanted water, but I thought I was going to share with somebody else, and I knew the girls I were with didn't like water, but as it turned out they had their own drinks.
Also, a couple of days ago marks an important milestone. I stepped on the scale one morning, since I hadn't weighed myself in awhile, and I saw that beautiful needle point to 160 lbs. on the dot. That is the first time in a long time that I've seen that! Yes, I've SAID that I weight 160 lbs., but I was rounding...down, unfortunately. Of course, when I weighed myself a couple of days later, it said I was 162 lbs., but weight fluctuates. Oi vei! Why does it fluctuate? Why can't you just be one weight? Don't answer that...
I've not been so good lately about eating right. I've been baking cookies a lot (it's the only thing that's really fun to do with my niece, and I found a delicious recipe online), plus add on todays mini binge, and I feel like I've totally failed. I probably haven't, it's probably not nearly as bad as I think.

I haven't posted in a couple of days. I've been sort of put-off because I haven't really been losing weight lately- I think the word 'plateau' applies here. That may be because I've sort of fallen off the wagon recently, you know, over eating a bit. Also, I may be gaining muscle, too. I hope it's the latter. I just have to be stricter with my dieting and excercise...anyway...bored...I hate having other people cook for me, because I don't know what the put in it and I have no means of calculating the calories, so then I have to do a ball-park estimate.

So...hello my non-existent readers! I'm currently watching a fast food commercial...good job making America obese! Congratulations! I'd throw you guys a party if I could.
My back is still itching like hell.
Okay, okay, today was pure boredom.
I love, love, love walking, though.
I like walking until I don't know where I am. Then I keep walking until I begin to recognize my surroundings. That's what I did today. It was hot...but I was happy with it.
Someday, I'd like to walk cross country. Sound crazy, right?
Haha, you're right, it is.
It sounds like so much fun, though. I'd have to bring mace and a gun, though, so I don't get raped.
Or mugged.
Etc.
Etc.
Etc.
My dog was exhausted, though.
Later....
I'm limiting myself to one weigh-in a week, even though I'm tempted to weigh myself everyday. Weird, huh? I just CANNOT weight (haha, terrible pun...) to see results, I want to weigh myself every second. But honestly, what do I expect? I'm not going to hop onto the scale one day and then the next day I magically lose 5 lbs or something...ech. And anyways, it's more accurate to weigh yourself every week. Plus, it is possible to gain weight (from muscle) and all that jazz, so...if I spend all week doing really well and gain weight, I know it won't be because I'm gaining fat.
I need to get a tape measure.

Hi, I'm Adelle. I'm another american 16 year old girl clogging up the internet with more stupidity. Teen angst abound! I had an account on LiveJournal for awhile...but I guess I got tired of having absolutely no supporters, so I decided to move my account over to blogger. Partidarios de lo que, exactemente? Well, I am currently trying to lose weight.
Oh no! Not only am I another 16 year old girl, but I'm trying to lose weight! Quick, call in the angsty rants about not making the cheerleading squads, the coach purses, and the laments about how nobody understands my life.
Please, spare me.
I'm not going to vomit angst on you. Nor am I going to complain about popularity. I know that I'm only one in a million and thousands of people are going to through very similar situations. All I'm asking is for those people to support me.
I currently weigh about 161.5 lbs right now, at a height of 5'4.5". I started at about 170 lbs. My goal weight is 132 lbs., but I'll be happy if I get to 145 lbs.
