HerStrawberri's Journal, 17 February 2012

I have been meaning to write a journal on here for some time now. It seems like everytime I came to the site to do it, something came up. LOL. BUT. I'm here now. My last entry was very sad. Thank you everyone who read it and left me a comment. It's greatly appreciated. My depression comes and goes. Well, I'm not sure if it ever really goes away for good, but it gets better.

School has been VERY hectic. I'm having to study much more this semester. Chemistry is killing me. I literally have to study for it every day. YUCK. BUT, it's worth it in the long run.

My GF and I joined the YMCA at the end of Jan and I go almost everyday. I absolutely LOVE it. Today I burned almost 600 cals and it felt SO good. I'm doing lots of cardio and strength training every other day. I have to say I'm becoming quite addicted to it. Everytime it gets hard I think to myself how good I'm going to look this summer. Well, way better then last summer that's for sure!!

I'm flucuating a lb or 2 from my current recorded weight. I know it's water weight and my muscles getting used to this working out thing. I lost a LB today so I'm hoping my body is getting used to it and i will start seeing some losses again. I KNOW I shouldn't depend so much on the scale, but I do. it is what it is.

I just have to say how much I love working out. It's crazy for me to say that. LOL. last year at this time, i was this sad, huge lump of a girl that NEVER wanted to leave the house. NOW I wake up everyday EXCITED to go to the gym. LOL. Craziness.

Ok, well...that's all that has really been going on with me. School and working out is bascially all I have been doing. Tomorrow night my GF is taking me out for VDAY. I'm pretty excited about that. =)

Hope everyone is well!!!!!!!

Keep up the great work! I totally understand what you mean when you say you love the gym. I NEVER thought I would be that girl either but I am. I had a car accident on the 4th so I have not been able to go for almost 2 weeks now and it is KILLING me but I am just in to much pain to go. :(

Sounds wonderful, Dawn. Working out IS addicting, isn't it. You're kicking butt in school and on the weight loss journey, that's for sure. How's your dad doing?

Your life sounds like mine. School and working out all day everyday. And I also have a class that I have to study for everyday - Radiographic Positioning! Its crazy, I use to be able to wait until the night before a test and be fine, but now I have to study as much as possible. I'm glad you are feeling better. Its so nice to see a journal from you :)

I just finished three years of school (getting my bachelors degree) And I had to study every night just to keep up...Alls well that ends well! just keep your head down and keep on at it. The funny thing is that my life was so consumed with studing for so long I kind of miss it now! and I never thought I would say that! . good you know you are feeling better. Try to stay busy, that Is what has helped me in the past with depression. Enve tho you feel like doing just the opposuite.
