Hello again!!!!!

Hola!!!! I know, I know it seems like forever since I last updated, but I think I've decided to start updating on a weekly basis instead of a daily basis to give you all a chance to miss me. No, but seriously, I am moving to weekly updates.

Enough of that, I've got good news!!!!! The first week of my diet has been a success!!!! The eating routine I set up has really helped me reduce my eating and random snacking. It seems like having defined eating times makes me find something to do other than eat. I'm actually finishing a project that was supposed to be done 3 months. It's kind of sad, but I kind of plan my day around the times I get to eat. None the less, I'm sticking to it. AND I lost 3 pounds!!!! go me. It might not seem like much, but that's huge to me. If by chance I get down below 200 pounds I'm going to flip!

In other news, school started back today! I'm excited because that mean that the next wave of greatness just came through. I'm excited for all the newcomers, but especially the female throwers. I don't want them to come to college feeling like they're at the bottom and they need to try to crawl to the top. Confidence is everything and if these girls come in with a winning attitude, we could have a dominating squad. I hate to say it, but at times, I know I can be intimidating, but I want them to know that I want them to be as successful as possible. I did a lot of growing in the 4 years I've been at NSU and if I can help any of the girls avoid some of the pot holes I hit along the way, then I think they'll be okay. College isn't like high school at all. In high school, you may only have one or two people in the entire city with some athletic talent, but college is like a rude awakening. For the most part, everyone on the collegiate level is a viable competitor. At my first collegiate meet, which by the way was at the University of Arkansas, I didn't even make it to finals with a throw that would've won a state title the previous year. Something like that can really break your confidence and quit possibly ruin your entire career; I know it seems a bit extreme, but it's true. So, I'm making it my responsibility to ensure that these girls don't surrender to intimidation.
