British Thinspo

And after the storm,
I run and run as the rains come
And I look up, I look up,
on my knees and out of luck,
I look up.
Night has always pushed up day
You must know life to see decay
But I won't rot, I won't rot
Not this mind and not this heart,
I won't rot.
And I took you by the hand
And we stood tall,
And remembered our own land,
What we lived for.
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.
And now I cling to what I knew
I saw exactly what was true
But oh no more.
That's why I hold,
That's why I hold with all I have.
That's why I hold.
I will die alone and be left there.
Well I guess I'll just go home,
Oh God knows where.
Because death is just so full and mine so small.
Well I'm scared of what's behind and what's before.
And there will come a time, you'll see, with no more tears.
And love will not break your heart, but dismiss your fears.
Get over your hill and see what you find there,
With grace in your heart and flowers in your hair.
After the Storm, Mumford and Sons



So since I have been listening to Mumford & Sons nonstop lately, I thought I would do a British inspired post. I would love to go there right now. Honestly, I would love to go anywhere far away from here. haha. But I imagine myself in a pub in London listening to Mumford & Sons live, drinking beer, and not worrying about all the bullshit I have to worry about here. I know that is really silly, but it is nice to think about. I am even watching Love Actually as I am writing this. Man, I am a loser!!













I am starting to get really nervous about this weekend. I know that after this weekend I will not be in the 120s anymore. I worked really hard to get here and now I am going to have to blow it eating out and being under Bear's constant watchful eye. I am also not going to be able to blog until Monday. I know I don't really talk to many people, but it is a huge outlet for me. I am constantly obsessing and stressing about my weight and every single calorie. To come online and let it out and then read about all the other amazing girls who are going through the same thing as me is so therapeutic. I don't know how I am going to last all weekend. I have become too dependent on this. Ah! Anyway, here is the intake for Thursday and Friday.

I got into a stupid fight with my mom today. She is mad because I told my boss that I am going to DC this weekend with Bear. She said "You don't care that she knows that you are going away for the weekend with your boyfriend?" How crazy is she??? We are 24 and 26, have been together for over 5 years and are going to go move him out of his condo. We have never even been on a vacation anywhere because our parents wouldn't like it! Ahhhhhh! She drives me crazy. Ok, rant over. haha. I am out of here tomorrow thank goodness.

Wish me luck!

Stay Strong and Skinny,
Nicole

  2. I'm loving the British thinspo (and HP boys). I hope you have a fun day with your boy tomorrow. Parents can be such worrierss sometimes; I think it's the I-can't-believe-my-baby-is-all-grown-up thing, but what can you do? Sending you lots of skinnies for this weekend. =)
