Starting today...

• I'm back from Charlotte!!

=> Charlotte was good! We had a really good time! We partied and drank & partied and drank!! So that was cool...

=>I TALKED to Ol' Boy, but we didn't see each other. I sent him a text Saturday night and he called me. Come to find out, we had partied right across the street from one another Friday night. We talked for a minute - about nothing in particular and that was it. No fireworks, no nothin'. It was nice to talk to him, because it's been a while, but that was it.

Honestly, I called him because of the stuff (or lack of stuff) that's going on w/ BF & I. If all we're good b/t us, Ol' Boy would be the last person on my mind. The reason that I left him alone, initially, is because things started getting serious b/t BF & I and I realized that as long as I was keepin' in contact w/ Ol'' Boy that we couldn't move forward. So, this is what I get for trying to be honest, up front and mature. I should have known there would be consequences!

=> My girl did not leaving me hangin'. She is really cool to hang out with. You never know how folks will act, but it worked out good. She likes to dance as much as I do, so we stayed on the floor for the whole weekend!!! We didn't get in until 5:30 a.m. on Saturday and she was cool with that. We'll definitely be coincide of town again. As a matter of fact, we have planned to go back to Charlotte on a shopping trip sometime this Spring.

• My diet started Today...

=> Plain Oatmeal is some nasty shit!!! I put cinnamon, fresh strawberries and 2 packets of Splenda in it. It was gross- but I choked it down!! You know swimsuit season is right around the corner?!?!?!

=> Ok, I must be really greedy! By 10:30, I was starting to feel faint. I had some cottage cheese - for the first time ever. It's not the worst thing that I've ever tasted, but I had to really concentrate so that I wouldn't throw up. I bought a couple of those little cottage cheese and fruit tubs, so that's what I'll be snacking on throughout the week. I need to rid myself of about 20 lbs. For lunch, I'm having a whole wheat pita with turkey, spinach, low fat cheese & low fat dressing and an orange. Doesn't that sound sooo exciting?? Well, after I finish torturing myself throughout the day, I'll go home and do some Tae.bo. All this healthy eating and exercising that I am about to embark on better do me some good!!!
