Day 0 of 21
Dec. 3rd, 2008 08:49 pmAfter stepping on the scale and finding out that I regained seven of the thirteen pounds I lost over the summer, I am going on a three-week diet initiative, starting tomorrow. Fewer than 1700 calories per day, more fruits, and attempts to exercise 3 days a week.
It's not that I think I'm fat well, I do, but I always have and I've gotten used to it; it's that these are pounds symptomatic of my patented emotional stress eating. And that pisses me off. Also, they would not be staying on if I were able to keep up with my weight-lifting schedule (now impossible, because of chorus schedule and looming midterms). So.
This will also give me an excuse to post every day about RL stuff, too. We can try this for a while and see if it works.

^^ Dieting and the exercise thing are hard. Thought you'd like a little incentive to keep at it.
And if you dun manage it, I will write you commiseration fic :P
