I'm a grad student getting a Ph.D. in Counseling Psychology. I have found that with all the time, energy, and effort I have been putting into getting my degree and helping and taking care of others, I have saved little to take care of myself. As a result, I have not only gained a significant amount of weight, but my health and sense of wellbeing have severely deteriorated. Joining this site is me saying that taking care of myself is important too! My goals are to get back to my pre-gradschool weight, develop healthy eating and activity habits, and cope with stress in healthier ways.
