Pretty great day today! I ate breakfast pretty late on account of me having an fMRI around breakfast time, but the gym went well and dinner is delicious. Even though my eating schedule was off and I got pretty hungry, I popped some mints and didn't eat anything unhealthy all day! The gym went supes well too. I really pushed myself by doing 3x my weight and body circuit, which I really didn't want to do. Not because I didn't want to, but because I didn't think I could. Tried to make my own pasta sauce tonight. MEGA fail. I didn't have enough tomatoes. Next time, next time...My weight has come down a little bit too. I've noticed that I all the weight I picked up is in my belly (womp not cute) so I'm hoping it will come off soon.
Definitely getting myself back on track. I keep reminding me of where I want to be in 2 months and that's really helping, but only because I'm starting to believe I can actually do it.

Today was pretty good overall. Made it to gym (yay), but my entire food schedule was throw off for a garden variety of reasons (womp). Tomorrow should be awesome though!

To my last exam: nsakdsaadjmsakdlajdaidakdwddwadwa WHY WERE YOU SO HARD??????
Definitely my worst exam out of the bunch, but all things considered, it could have gone a lot worse I guess. I'm glad it's over though.
I weighed in today for my revival of my workout and eating plan.
8 pounds.
Thats how much I've gained over the past couple of weeks.
All in all, it's ultimately my fault and I know it. It still kinda stinks though that I let myself go that much. Ultimately, I just hurt myself by not trying to care about my end goal while I had was off track. Today/ this past week was no exception. I was not healthy today with what, when and how I ate. I just wasn't. I can't wait for this good night's sleep, my workout tomorrow and veggies. Lots of veggies.
8 pounds is just a minor set back. I still have plenty of time to reach my goal by the date I wanted to. I just have to stick to my plan. Even though writing stuff down and scheduling stuff is helpful, it's so easy to just ignore, delete it or pretend it's not there. Maybe it was just exams, apps, stress and homework, but that's not like. I'm all for re-adjusting plans if necessary, but I always come back to them. Tomorrow and for most days throughout the week, I'm going to make sure I get to the gym for 30 mins, do my strength training and eat right.
As long as I stick to a routine that I feel like I can do everyday, I'll be fine.
In happier news, I tried henna in my hair today. I AM IN LOVEEEEEEEEE.

Exams went fairly well today. Pretty burnt ou trying to study for the one I have tomorrow. Probably not going to sleep until its over. Don't worry though, it's only 10 mins, there's just a lot of information and since I didn't have time to study for this one because of the other three, I just need to make sure I'm just as prepared for this one as I am my others ones. Eating habits and sleep habits were off today. My hair is shedding a lot....womp. Going to work on getting enough protein and do a henna treatment tomorrow. Hope it goes well....

Feeling kinda blah. Not about my exams (which I'm going to ace tomorrow by the way), but about my weight, getting interviews and my general look. I don't know what, but the uncertainty, lack of progress and lack of improvement in the areas kinda bummed me out about an hour ago. Trying to get back on track, even though I did eat out for dinner due to time contraints (and I'm going to have the do the same thing for lunch too), and I've already put working out back on my calendar. While, I don't think I've gained any weight per say (I have to wait a couple more days to weigh in) and my skin has improved since I've been here, I just thought I'd be further along by now.....In happier news, I'm looking forward to my meal plan this week. I've got to be careful with my calorie intake though. I finally got around to trying to plug in/ guess how much I consume each day with my meal plan for today in CalorieCount. Even though my meals are pretty healthy, I'm still eating too much per day considering I haven't been working out. It was a nice wake up call. Looking forward to the rest of this week past Tuesday morning. I'll be able to relax, workout, Skype my friends and do my hair (exam struggles y'all....). I definitely feel a lot better writing this post. All I can do tomorrow is taking my exams. I know all of the material like the back of my hand. Everything else is out of my control.
Wish me luck!

Today was pretty good. It took me a while to get started on my studying, but once I did, I felt pretty good about my pace and progress. I'm definitely not going to freak out anymore! Tried my new meal plan. So far so good! Additionally, I start marking down times of when I was going to eat and that actually helped out a lot! I are a lot later than I wanted to, but I'm not going to sweat it....Going to do some more work tonight and get up early tomorrow and finish my studying.

My exam went surprisingly ok. I missed two vocab questions and my teacher's only complaint was that I used "simple words." She wanted me to use more vocab words in my response, but hey, I did answer all of the questions and I did use some words. I definitely don't think I got anything less than a B so I'm pretty happy right now. Admits my panic attack yesterday, I realized that I also need to work on stressing less. I am actually my own worst enemy. These exams and classes really don't add up to much in the long run. At my school, transfer grades only transfer over points towards graduation. Letter grades don't count. Basically, I just had to do well enough for my teacher to give me credit. It also don't hurt that she's my advisor and she likes me haha!
It's more a pride thing.
I didn't come here to just skirt along. I'm going to try and keep this is in perspetive though for the sake of my stress levels and just work on improving vocabulary level and participation in class. That's more important in the long run.
I took a long break today after my exam, re-did my hair and talked to my sister. I feel refreshed and ready to own these next set of exams! I'm really enjoying having a better relationship with my sister. I also received mad compliments on my call last night in front of my peers. Made me so happy. My friend also converted to me KPop ( I was like half way there already lol) so we had a great conversation about that, plus she showed me an indie music site that's pretty fantastic so that made me happy too!
Operation turned out pretty ok today. Pretty happy with today even though I ended up eating out and getting a chicken dish for lunch. I think I was craving the protein, but that's probably because I really havent had much over the past couple of days. My meals plans that I made for next couple of days are pretty balanced so I think everything will be ok. I was able to reel myself back in for dinner and steam a sweet potato so I'm pretty proud of that small victory. I've been reminding myself of Operation 16, what the real purpose of food is and how I feel after I eat something help deal with my cravings. I honestly can't handle sweet stuff anymore. My blood sugar was alllllll over the place these past two days and its because of the chocolate and little itty bit of coffee I had.
Gonna get up tomorrow and grab my fruits and veggies for the day. I'm going to be spending a lot more time cooking and doing food prep moving forward.

Pretty good day today. Had some blood sugar issues earlier, but other than that I'm pretty good. I'm going to have to re-do my plan for winter and get veggies from the campus store every day and stay away from leftovers. I also need to do smaller meals and eat more. Three "big" meals of just fruits is leaving me pretty hungry so I'm going to try eating smaller meals throughout the day.
I've had kind of a sweet tooth these past two days so I've been getting a dark chocolate bar. I let it go for today, but I'm going to try dried sweet potatoes instead tomorrow. Operations "16 Pounds" is going to be a success! I've done a pretty good job cutting everything else back out though. I'm moving to oatmeal tomorrow instead of steamed white rice. Brown is not an option and sense oatmeal is healthier and I already have it in my room, this will save time, money and wasted calories.
Not much else to report on. I'm re-worked my study plan today so I feel better and more confident in how I'm going to attack these exams. No more feeling like they're going to be hard and that I can't study well for them!
My plate was super colorful today! Made me happy. Will be posting pic soon.
