Läski Fussie

I gained a lot of weight! I've never actively watched my diet or exercise, I've never had to, in adulthood. However things have changed, especially throughout 09 into this year. I don't fit into any of my old nice clothes from 08 and even some I got in late 09. It's been a bit of a shock frankly, I never realized just how much weight I have gained.

Because of this realization I decided to experiment throughout June and see if I can get myself back into decent shape within that time. I used to stay fit by riding daily to work and back. So now I have a new push bike here and I will ride around daily, or most days. In addition I am changing my eating habits slightly. Instead of eating few large meals, I eat many smaller meals. It's difficult to shake the habit of eating till I am full, but I am succeeding.

Unfortunately I cannot weigh myself so I have to judge my progress purely by how clothing fits and in the mirror. My optimistic prediction is that by the end of June, zips will be closed, buttons will be done up!

In other news, the hair is going! I always held my scruffy appearance in pride, I felt it represented my "rebellion" against something. In actuality I wanted people to make misconceptions about my looks so I could then overcome them, trying to make a statement. I think I've done that, but I tire of looking scruffy. I want to look presentable sometimes and that's really just not possible. My little social statement shouldn't interfere with the social life I am TRYING to make. So it's gone! Tomorrow, or Tuesday!

I go to college now, did I mention that? Twice a week, information technology. It's interesting although a lot of it is elementary at the moment. I am holding out for a tourism class coming in a couple months, I might do both if possible.
