i guess i’ve done this … and i guess my issue is less about wanting to be in the public health program and more about wishing my social work program was more in line with my career goals, and definitely a lot more challenging regardless. but i’m over it, so there, it’s done!

so evidently three months ago i was at 191. now i’m at 185. six pounds in three months?? sheesh, at this rate i won’t get to my goal until i’m an old lady! i guess losing six is better than gaining six, but maybe i should rethink this.
also, i recently had an epiphany … i remember back when i only weighed 140 lbs and you know what?? even back then i hated my body and thought i was fat. so it’s not really about the number, is it???
well pelican air cancelled their flight route to inhambane, and going back to johannesburg just to go forward to mozambique for only three days seemed like a more than less ideal alternative. so instead, we’re going to continue the safari after we camp in kruger with a private lodge in sabi sands. wow. i’m so excited.
