brrrrr

Wow, it got cold! So today is day 1 of my 6 day rotation. I picked up at the Fairless hills yard by like, noon-ish, delivered in burlington this afternoon, picked up my bj's load from there and took off towards ohio. The Bj's I just got unloaded at is in North Canton, Ohio, and sadly this is the only bj's that they don't allow us to park at when we are done being unloaded. Thankfully there's a TA down the street and i've had really good luck on saturday's the last 3 times I have delivered here and have been able to get a parking space at that TA. So I'll be heading down there in a bit. While I was being unloaded, I had my phone with me, and the hotspot turned on and I was on my computer working on school stuff. My way of thinking was that I would get done what I need to get done so that when I was unloaded and finished here, I could literally go find a space to park and cover my windows, turn on my bunk heater and go to sleep. The last 2 or 3 hours before I got here, I was dragging really bad.

On a positive note *since i don't think I have the energy to write a long ass blog. Not that I don't want to, I juts am too damn tired.* I've been working on losing weight the past month-ish. 4-5 weeks back I was 265 lbs. 2 weeks ago I was 254, last week I had only dropped one pound to 253, but I made a change. I've been bringing these containers of sun flower seed kernals with me. I did the dry roasted thinking "healthier" and they are. But what I didn't realize was I had gotten the "salted" ones, and apparently there's a lot of sodium. So the last time I shopped for truck food, this time I still got dry roasted, but I got unsalted. Then when I was home for home time this friday (yesterday), when I weighed myself I weighed 250.5. So, I was happy to see that change. My ultimate goal is to be down around 210. I know technically I can get even lower if I keep working at it. When I began the process of going into the military, I was 215. I went out every other day and ran or walked a few miles, then the days in between, I went to the YWCA and would do the weights and then raquetball. By the time I shipped out, I was down to 195. When I got out of basic training I was 160 and had a huge flab of a gut because of all the weight I lost and had basically excess skin with no fat anymore. I don't necessarily want to get down that low, but I think 200 would be nice. I don't want to be a skin and bones build either, but I'd like to be in better physical shape than I am now.

So anyway, I've been unloaded and as soon as this blog entry is posted, I'll be heading down to the TA to try to get parked. Definitely going right to bed! What a day. ;) Hope you all are well!
