AND THE CRAZY KEEPS ON COMIN'

I have to.  There’s no way it can be accurate.  I’m hungover.  I ate at a weird time last night that I don’t know.  I am dehydrated.

I have yet to step on the scale at all…and I am semi-tempted to just put it off until next week…simply because I don’t even think I lost at all…

I have 1 week until my graduation party. 

So here’s my week plan:

  • Monday - Gym
  • Tuesday- Six Flags(a lot of walking) - NO JUNK FOOD AT ALL
  • Wednesday - Gym
  • Thursday - Gym
  • Friday - Gym

See a trend?  I am angry that I feel like I am on a plateau, and I want nothing more than to beat the hell out of it and see the scale drop.

Anger is usually a bad thing, but it’s just what I need right now to keep going and not give up.

Medical problems of 1911 are still with us
Even after 100 years of medical progress, diseases and viruses like tuberculosis and the plague still spread in many countries.

what’s there to fear about weight loss? It should be something that drives and motivates you, not makes you fearful!

However I used to have a fear of weight loss because my “friends” (really just peers) were judging me SO hard. It was weird, at first they were so proud of me for losing weight, and then when I started looking really awesome (I reached my lowest weight of 140 lbs like three weeks ago— which I have since bounced back from…) they started saying things like “YOU NEED TO EAT” .. even though I was…

They were judging me on something they knew nothing about and that really bothered me. But it doesn’t anymore, I’m doing this for myself— not for them.

Sexting - A New Social Issue



Sexting is the new social problem facing the world. With modern technology, the social issues change as well and sexting seems to be a similar phenomenon.

Sexting is sending of sexually explicit photographs via text messages. Teenagers, both girls and boys are falling for it immensely. It is leading to premature sexualisation of kids and can lead to sexually transmitted diseases. Thus, another social problem is on rise.

A latest development is that the kids are circulating nude pictures of themselves or their friends to others. School staff in Britain and other countries are worried that their students are going to get into trouble and it is time some action is taken regarding sexting.

According to a research in Britain, 4 out of every 10 kids aged 11 to 16 know that sexting takes place in their schools. Half of these children take part in sexting themselves although they know that their pictures will be circulated around. A research conducted in Plymouth University showed that 40% of teenagers don't consider topless pictures of young girls to be inappropriate either.

Adults feel it is the overall exposure to pornography on the internet that is leading to such behavioral change amongst the kids. Academicians also suggest a law should be made against sexting and teenagers should be tried in the court of law if they possesses explicit images of minors just like an adult is treated.

Well, till a few days back I thought only Britney Spears was involved in sexting but see how technology is leading to other social issues. I really don't know how a check is done on these things and modern technologies. But even when things like video chat and skype were introduced people all over the world irrespective of age, gender and religious beliefs got involved in cyber sex and much more. Indeed, it is not nice that kids are getting involved in these things that they cannot really handle well. It is not just sex and the diseases that will be caused but it will also lead to disturbing many kids mentally for the longest time and by the time they will realize what they did when they were 14 was wrong, they would have spend half of their lives.

People Are Afraid To Weigh Themselves



A survey of 3000 people was conducted for the Co-Operative Pharmacy that has revealed that most people who are overweight or obese underestimate how much they weigh. In fact 1/5th of the people were unaware that being overweight can raise the chances of getting heart diseases. 60% of the sample didn't even know that being obese increases the risk of having cancer and many other fatal diseases.

This has raised the alarm for the health services that people are not aware of what should be their ideal weight and are quite happy being ignorant of the serious risks related to being overweight.

People are embarassed to discuss the obesity issues some how. In fact, most of them are afraid of weighing themselves. They don't want to know how much they weigh to begin with. According to a study published in The Lancet, British women were the fattest of all in any major western European nation.

Well, it is about time that the British people should seriously think about their weight issues. I mean they are just hurting themselves in the process and making their over all genes unstable with such carelessness. They are lucky to have so many options to work out and do physical activities to keep their weight under control. I am amazed they don't bother at all about their weight. I remember the story that my sister shared about that very fat girl from UK also. I remember UK is one place where you walk so much you are bound to stay fit and healthy. But people have become lazy I guess.
