weigh less than 200 lbs

This type of goal is funny. You hit 199, 198 – you’re not quite sure if the goal has been accomplished…

Well, I’m 194 now. I think I was 220 when I put this goal up.

  • I used my bike as transportation
  • I weight trained
  • I usually ran a mile after weight training
  • I went out dancing several times a month

I didn’t do anything diet-wise. Some health choices are obvious, but I didn’t hold myself to any systematic method. I prefer doing more exercise and enjoying food. My body actually begins to feel “fat” after a few days without exercise. I listen to it. :D



graduate from college (read all 2 entries…)
I work there now. 14 months ago

Just graduated. Now I do research there!



run 15 miles
Untitled 23 months ago

(There’s some weird bug that makes this show up as 15 miles, instead of 1.5)

I did it. 2 miles actually. Took it easy and concentrated on running on the balls of my feet instead of heel-toe.

I actually would have gone for 3 miles, but my right knee started feeling a little funny. It didn’t hurt, but it sure felt strange.
