Saliferous's Journal, 20 November 2013

My life is somewhat in shambles. I just submitted a failing-quality implementation of my second major project in PL and I will probably receive a C in that course... that means if I want to get honors, I may need to drop it. I've done nothing thesis-related. I don't sleep much. I've been somewhat neglectful of my TA duties, though just a week ago they sucked up all my time. Now I have even more duties as head TA of a spring semester class. I'm tired... and I feel pretty shitty.

At least I'm skinnier now.

Give yourself a break. You need some rest and and good quality food, preferably not processed carbs to keep you going. It is very hard to study and lose weight at the same time for two reasons. You brain needs glucose to function and people who try to lose weight get preoccupied with it at the expence of other activities. So set your priorities. At your weight it might be better to concentrate just on healthy eating and your studies for a few weeks. Good luck in both your weight loss and studies.

You're right. Somehow I never connected the two but it is definitely possible that my decreased calorie intake is causing me to become less energetic and more apathetic overall, thus leading to my decreased performance. I do have an extremely demanding schedule that I've just barely been managing, but I feel the senioritis has definitely kicked in. Staying on track diet-wise, and keeping track of my progress has been one of the things keeping me sane, and for once I'm not distracted by thoughts about how fat I think I look. I just don't know if I could handle being academically sloppy AND being fat... But I will try to swallow my pride and take your advice.
