Bah. 183 at the end of March.

I think I actually gained two whole pounds this weekend. Ugh.

185 at the end of September. Hoping for 180 this month!

Well, the aftermath of moving (hauling lots of heavy furniture up the stairs, not having any food in the house for a bit) combined with my new living situation (walking everywhere on very hilly terrain, having roommates who are also trying to eat healthfully) has led me to go from 195ish down to 190. Not too shabby for a couple of days! We didn’t have a scale at first so it was a nice surprise.

I’ve been working out new running routes in town and am going to try not to let that slide once classes start next week. I have to walk a lot because I don’t have a car, so there is that. I’ll probably join the department’s floor hockey team once a week. [A side note, I need to look into yoga, not because I think that does much for me exercise-wise, but because I like it.] I really should get into some strength training again, but… one thing at a time.

I’m going to continue to try to eat good food and not lots of ice cream and chocolate and cheese always. I doubt I’ll be in my house much during prime snacking times, so that’ll help. The major forseeable issue is that, now I have friends who want to go to bars! (And out to eat sometimes.) So I just have to plan ahead for that. And I assume that that might drop off a bit as we all get busier and poorer as the semester progresses. (Honestly, my main weakness is that someone I very much like usually does the inviting and it’s very hard to say no to spending time with him. But we’ll have classes soon and probably all of our time together will be spent studying instead of drinking.)

I’m not going to make any number goals or deadlines right now. There’s just too much going on all around. Running and vegetables, those are my focus.
