Well things are going ok I guess. I lost 5 pounds after going up 12 so that is good. I am in what is called a stall. I suspect that I am intaking to much soduim and I am retaining water. I drink a gallon or more everyday. I have not had anything but water for the past few days and I am hoping that if I go just a bit stricter on my carbohydrate intake I will be start to lose. I also suspect that I am eating to much cheese (cream cheese and string cheese along with cheese at other random times) which is what maybe causing my weightloss to stall.
I intend to start hitting the gym in the morning. The problem is that my sleeping schedule doesnt seem to want to adjust to getting up early. I want to start hitting the weights and improve my overall physical strength. I have also been told that it will help speed up weight loss. In addition to this I want to start using the treadmill to get in cardio. I also use my bike but the problem is that the headlight and taillight broke. In addition to that the cyclometer also broke. I keep putting off taking it into the store where I bought it at. I should do that as I believe it to still be under warranty.
In other news one of my financial aid refunds was sent to a bank account that is not mine and I had to remedy that. It was taken care of this afternoon which is good. Unfortunatley the money went to pay one of my creditors. I have taken care of a lot of them recently for less than the entirety of the debt. For example, I owed a hospital $729.00 and I was able to settle for $450.00 and I have done this with quite a few debts. My largest debt now is $1600 or so to a collection agency. These are not including my school loans but I intend to pay them back soon. The first one I intend to pay is $3000 to Southern Illinois University, and then start paying back the others. Once I get my other credit reports I will start to see who I owe before undertaking that.
I have a plan for this. I have all of the debts coming from one particular bank account, while the other will be my living expenses. I will use 2 different banks of course. And I will use paypal to transfer money out of one account to another. And just let it sit in one account while the debts are automatically taken out.
As for the letters I recieve from the different agencies saying I have paid my debt, I will scan them and store them in my gmail account as well as extra hard drive. This way I wont lose them as they are going to become important soon.
I have a job interview on Thursday at 2:00 with McDonald's. It will be for an overnight position which is cool. Hopefully I can work both this job and my other one as I can use the money. I am pretty sure that I have the job as it is a McDonalds. My theory is that if I have an interview I most likely have the job. Hopefully they pay decent and I can earn a little more than the minimum wage I am getting now. I will also be applying for an overnight position for housing. Basically a door attendant. All I would have to do is sign the kids in and out. I think this would be a better job than being a cashier in a cafeteria or an overnight worker in McDonalds.
I will be applying for this job tomorrow. Well I have to go pick up my laundry.
Cheers.
