So I finally got around to weighing myself and I have to say that I'm reasonably proud. My eating habits are far from stellar and "workout" schedule is composed of the wandering and the sporadic crunches, stretches, and push-ups that I do at work. I end up running/walking up stairs most of the day at work, but otherwise I just sit at my desk or wander so that my back (which has been a problem since I was a young teenager) has a chance to not be in a sitting position. My diet isn't anything set in stone other than that I eat when I'm hungry and try to pay attention to what makes my body actively feel bad. My stomach can put up with quite a bit when I make it but when I'm taking the time to feel my body, it is surprisingly picky. The microwave meals are what I've come to doing at work because I make very little and work 12 hour shifts (my full commute on work days is 2 hours) and with the time it takes to fall asleep and wake up/get ready, I have just enough time to sleep *maybe* 8 hours. Making food fresh isn't exactly an option. That being said, I've found a way to boil eggs while I'm getting ready to leave and eating eggs in the morning and an apple toward the middle of the day has really helped to keep my cravings down. I don't know exactly why but I'm not about to question a good thing, plus I love both of those things~
So yes. Weighed in last night (had to buy batteries for my scale) and found out that I'm currently at 151 pounds, which is a surprising number for me considering I was 180 around September of last year and other than starting to count calories a month or so ago, I haven't paid much attention to my weight/exercise. Removing undue stress has really done good things for my health and body. I'm excited to see how this continues to grow and potentially find ways to become more active while I'm not busy at work~
