Getting Healthy

I think the most noteworthy thing about the past week was the blessed 4 days of rest & recovery than Thanksgiving weekend brought.  After a 10 day work stint, on top of everything else, that long weekend was much needed. I realized this week that I didn’t pack (in an accessible place) the cords to [...]

Hello readers! It’s been a week of ups and downs, but mostly ups. The biggest challenge for me this week was eating properly, since it was easily the busiest week of my entire college life. I’ll explain. In the first chapter, I posted about having to do stage combat. Well, today was my final. This [...]

I didn’t expect to lose weight this week.  I offered to host Thanksgiving this year, which meant less free time and more food…as well as a holiday that lends itself to overeating.  Though I think I did pretty well, I also know that pumpkin pie for breakfast is, um, getting me nowhere.

Hey there, guys and dolls. Sorry this post is coming a little late; it’s been a strange week for me.  I’ve been out for Thanksgiving break all week, but there hasn’t been much festivity, as my family waits until tonight and tomorrow to have our big turkey-day shindig.  The little window of opportunity that I [...]

Hello from Whistler, BC! I am really pushing the Thursday thing, but I had some issues getting these pictures around, whoopsies. Though I am in Canada, we celebrated the US Thanksgiving with some pumpkin pie for dessert after dinner. I am up here with my relatives enjoying some fun in the snow and am looking [...]

Hello again! I want to start by saying THANK YOU. To all of you. You have no idea how wonderful it was to wake up on Thursday after posting, to find comments I received on my post. I struggled incredibly while writing it, and even after I set it to post for the world to [...]

First, I just want to thank ALL of you who commented on my first post (silly me, I forgot to reply) giving me ideas and encouragement. It’s so much appreciated. I’m looking forward to conquering some of these battles knowing that the readers have experience and can relate. I’ll definitely be taking everything into consideration. [...]
