Wow.
What a year.
I'd started THM in April/May of last year,
and lost 20 lb.
Yup.
After years of halfheartedly trying to
lose weight.
I don't have my exact weight from last
year, but I was about 200 lb.
I weighed in on January first as 181 lb!
I've learned a lot more than just how to
lose weight in this last year:
I was able to get a job as one of the
cashiers for my college dining hall, and I've learned how to use a cash
register!
(I had no idea they could be so finicky!)
I found crazy friends, and not so crazy
friends.
I found out that reading large portions
of the Bible only takes a two, three, four hours!
I found out that procrastinating on essays
doesn't work (at least for over half of the time!).
I've found out that being away from my
family is okay, there's always break!
I've found out that sleep is one of the
most needed things while at college, and one of the most costly to lose.
I've found out that it's okay to not be
on the computer very often, I can still get a lot done!
I've found out that writing a first draft
is the hardest thing to write.
I've found out working on the second
draft is a hilarious breath of fresh air.
I've found out that God is still good, no
matter the problems I face.
Wow, the list could go on!
God is good!
My goal for this next year is to lose
20-30 lbs by next January, and hopefully start exercising more.
Well, at least the courage to exercise in
my room!
I, for one, do not like it when there are
people there to watch my pitiful attempts at sit-ups, push-ups, and other
exercises.
I also found out in the month of January
that I have to be careful with how I make the Singing Canary.
I added about a 1/4 tsp. Tumeric, and a
LOT of vanilla.
Too much vanilla.
I drank almost all of it, but ended up
just dumping the last little bit (about two or so tall glasses worth if I'd
added the extra water).
Well, I hope to post later this week on
the THM building blocks!
See you then!
God Bless,
SDG
