I'm Back (In More Ways Than One!)

Exactly one month since my last post.
In that month I finished my practicum, applied for a million jobs that I haven't heard about, wrote 6 papers, almost finished all my classes (last week is it!) and virtually fell of the wagon with my eating and exercise.

I have 1 project left (my portfolio), which I present on April 19th, and then I am done. Woot!

I have led a sedentary life in the last year beyond belief, and my body show the results. I ache in places I didn't know I could ache, and I feel out of shape and blah.

I have not weighed myself since February 1, and I was very scared when I got on the scale this morning....but I needed to face the music. And the music was better than I expected. Since my last weigh in, I have gained 2.2 pounds. That is a manageable number.....I was pleased, all things considered.

So moving forward.

Today I start tracking again.

I start walking or doing something physical, everyday, even if it hurts....I committed to Suzy (for some reason I cannot add a hyperlink here....very odd) that I would.
I also see another vegan challenge in my very near future.
I do still have school to accomplish, so it will be more challenging for the next week, but really I no longer have an excuse, so I am moving forward.
And I am not just saying that!

  2. Good for you! Sometimes we don't want to know what our weight is doing so we don't have to do anything about it - and we all know where that leads!

    Soon you will have more time, and 2.2 pounds is not hard to shed.
