Xuraiya goal: healthy till the end of my days

Wow, almost a yearApr 18 2007 21:40
It's been almost a year since I started C-C, and I'm almost exactly the same weight I was a year ago. All that weight that I lost came right back on, and I'm in the same place I was a year ago, only with a little less motivation than I started off with.
Back to square one, folks.
Well, there is something new--I've developed a binge-eating problem, but I'm hoping that I'm fixing that. Hopefully. We'll see how it goes.
I guess just the very fact that it is almost a year is helping me get motivated again. I mean, this time last year I was taking 40 minute walk/jogs every day, stuck to a 1400 calorie diet balanced in all the food groups (and I burned off anything over 1400 calories with DDR or Budokon or Tae Bo).
Sigh. Well, the only thing I can think of that I've gained through all of this is a deeper understanding of my body, my desires, and health in general. That's something.
Hopefully I'll do better this time around.
good morning! nice to see you again!!! yes, you have learned a lot, and i'm sure you WILL do better this time. i keep learning things all the time, and look how OLD i am! lol but you are facing the stresses of college and becoming completely independent, so it's really great that you've learned all this ahead of time. college campuses are not known for having healthy food choices, although i hope that is changing. have you continued to log your food? |
p.s. my youngest daughter spent a year in the grad school of architecture at yale, so i've been there a couple of times. it's a beautiful little town, and i think you'll love it. have you decided what you will major in? she decided after a year to go back to m.i.t. where she had done her undergraduate, and finished her m. arch. there in 2002. she's working for an architect who has an office here in detroit and one in new york, so she flies back and forth a lot. she basically IS his office. wherever her cell-phone is, that's where the office is. i guess that's how the world is, these days! |
