I want to lose 70 pounds by graduation. Graduation is May 26th. I have about 9 months to accomplish this goal. This is my long term goal. By long, I mean, I cannot fathom the possibility of graduation yet (didn't I just start my Master's program???).
Other goals I have:
- to run (not a marathon, not become a runner; just to run. lose the inhibition and just run).
- stop eating past 7pm (eating at 10:30pm has become a bad habit since grad school started).
- like green tea (tea reminds me of being sick, which makes me want to barf).
- having a set circadian rhythm
- eat breakfast everyday
- cut out high fructose corn syrup
This blog and making it public goes against everything I have ever thought about losing weight. I have NEVER discussed it with anyone. I need to force myself to be open about it because then I cannot stay in denial of it if its out there in the vast tubes of the interwebs.
Yes, during probably the most stressful year of my life so far, I will be attempting to lose weight and focus on being healthy. Usually, I've heard that this is the year where health, weight, and exercise go out the window. One of my internship supervisors, called me a masochist. She may have hit the nail on the head, but if I can do it this year, then I can do it once I'm out in the working world.
CAN SHE DO IT? Tune in next time when she blogs about more blah blah blah
You're awesome, and congratulations with being so open. Let me know if I can be of any help :)

ReplyDeleteSara - Thank you! I will definitely pick your brain at some point.
ReplyDeleteMom- Thanks mom :P
Good for you! I'm with you in the weight loss goal. I need to loose 20 lbs to be at a healthier weight for my "age" and not have my knee fussing at me. I'm about 1/2 way there.
ReplyDeleteYou can do it. You may have chosen an insanity project. But I also think it will give you confidence through out this coming year as you head to graduation. You go girl!
