Well, I am losing weight VERY slowly, but at least it is coming off! I am very glad to be quite a bit below 300! Although I’d really like to lose weight faster so that my health can get even better, I am happy that I am already feeling much healthier. My pseudotumor has really [...]
I had a very unusual experience yesterday. As I was quite busy with school work, I ended up getting only about 4 to 4-1/2 hours of sleep the night before last (well below my usual self-enforced 8-9 hour sleeping schedule that usually still makes me want an afternoon nap).

So, for several months, I have been having a lot of vision problems and headaches. At first, I thought the headaches and vision stuff was just left over from all the autoimmune problems I was having last year (which in part is why I can’t accurately determine when I developed this pseudotumor problem). However, my [...]
Ok, so it has been quite a while since I posted. I have been extremely busy with my classes, my health, and my boyfriend. Amazingly, I’ve managed to do pretty well with continuing my workouts. Currently, I am up to about my 42nd workout. I started volunteering with the local humane society (mostly walking the [...]
So, I am up to my 23rd workout. Actually, I missed several days due to having 4 midterms this week. However, I managed to get through all of them and still fit in several workouts. Now, the more exciting news is that I have a boyfriend! We have been dating for around a week and [...]
