Bad day
I'm having a bad day.
Now, keep in mind, it's not the kind of bad day that's really a bad day, like with tears and tragedy and life-altering badness.
No, this is the other kind of bad day. Which is good. But still bad.
Like how, for example, I was an extremely diligent Weight Watcher last week and was UNDER my daily points allowance 6 out of the seven days, and then I didn't lose a single pound...not one! And then I got on weightwatchers.com and found out that not eating your daily points is about as bad as eating too many points. So essentially I was hungry. For nothing.
And then there's the fact that I'm totally back on the Diet Coke. I've relapsed. I'm off the wagon. And now I've got to go through it all again.
And let's not forget that BEA is just getting closer and closer and I'm no closer to being able to wear cute clothes!
Oh, and my cold is lingering on, having set up permanent residence in my breathing places.
Have I mentioned I didn't lose any weight last week?
And there is some good news, that's really great news, but I can't share it yet, which is bad news, so I'm really conflicted about the whole situation.
So there. I'm having a bad day.
But this week I get to eat. And maybe lose weight.
later,
Ally

Aw, Ally, I know how you feel!! I'm sixteen and I won't share my actual weight, but I'm not fat, but I used to be, and now all I need is to lose 8 pounds and I will be at my goal weight! A few weeks ago I got the flu (I know it's not the best way to lose weight) and lost 6 pounds and I only had TWO (2!!!!!) more to lose and I would have been fine, and then a friend brought over a double batch of cookies, and I, too fell off the wagon! I told myself no more sweets for a while, especially ice cream, ice cream is death to me!!! But I guess trying to lose weight when you have a major sweet tooth and there is a Dairy Queen right down the street and your sister wants ice cream, and then everyone gets ice cream and, i mean you don't want to be a prude right? I guess that since I did lose about 60 pounds in the last two years, and extra 8 isn't going to hurt for a while! Your books rock, and I can't wait to hear about the good news!!!!! ~K
Pobresita! (my friend taught me to say that, I have no idea if I spelled it right...) Yeah, I have trouble losing weight. Especially since I looooove candy and cookies (which I just made yesterday... naughty, naughty Kinsey! *slaps herself*)
I hate bad days. I had one the other day. It was awful. I don't remember exactly what happened -- it was that bad, that I had to block it from my memory -- but it was pretty bad. I remember that. :/
Ally, from what I can see of your picture on the book, I don't think you need to lose weight. I've probably got bigger love handles than you... hahaha. But whatever. I'm not going to tell you not to lose weight, when I used to have an EDNOS (look it up). Just don't get obsessed or overdo it, kk?
This is a rather long post, neh? I'd better stop, I'm supposed to be doing my rough draft on my research paper for Honors English, and then a bunch of questions for AP Euro, and then a chemistry review worksheet... and the list goes on.

P.S. Here's to hoping that the good news has something to do with the movie! Or something equally better!
Just a quick note but don't feel bad. I've been trying to lose weight and have fallen off the bandwagon for the LAST TWO WEEKS! Crazy, I know. So, I've dedicated May to be a month where I don't cheat on my diet at all (unless absolutly necessary a little like a big meal i can't get out of). Hopefully, posting it here will keep me more accountable. Anyway, that's not even your problem. Just remember that muscle weighs more than fat so weight isn't the most accurate measure.
Awww, you still have your cold?? I’m sorry, I know colds are a total of NO fun. And I can sympathize with you on the weight watchers and the diet coke thing. I’ve been trying to lose my final two pounds for over like, two and a half weeks. lol. And I’ve also been trying to stop drinking twenty diet cokes a day, which hasn’t been goin all that well for me. I know, IT’S HAAARD! But you’ve got some good news??? That’s good at least! I hope you have nothing but terrific days from now on, (and also that you can share your good news with us soon!!!)
Thanks for writing such incredible books!

I lost 50+ pounds on Weight Watchers and I have to say that it is SOO important to eat the minimum points. There were days I had to have two desserts just to eat the min! But even with two desserts a day I was taking off 2pounds a week very regularly.
Then, when you plateau, you'll want to change up how you eat your points. Eat lots (dip into your flex points) one day and then less for the next two days. I forget what they used to call this (wendi maybe?) but they talk about it on the boards. Eating lots of points one day revvs up your metabolism and it will blow through the lower points the next two days (but again, always eat the min!).
Honestly, I wasn't losing weight before going on WW because I was eating too little!
cfThats aweful. Loseing weight can be so hard. I am on Weight Watchers currently. Sometimes my mom has trouble useing all of her points and whatnot. Also giving up soda is difficult. Hope you have better days soon.
WHAT??!! No Veronica Mars blogging yet? You must be under a rock somewhere - ha
Happy Wednesday!

Yes, I am going to BEA! My official signing is at 3:00 on Friday. I should be around a tad on Saturday but probably not in an official capacity (just going to friends' signings, meeting with my agent, and stuff like that).
Hope to see you there!
