Yesterday I went to Curves for an informational meeting. I thought I would look into it and see if I liked it, because joining the yoga studio up here is hella expensive. I signed up, not knowing if I'd really like it or not, but knowing it was cheaper than yoga and I needed something like this in my life. My self image continues to decline with my health, so if nothing else I'll at least feel better.
I went for my first workout this morning, and it was harder than it looks. Not too hard though - just hard enough to know you're really working out, but not hard enough to make you want to quit or take a break. I felt good about myself. I think I'll really like it there. I'm planning on trying to make it there 5 days a week (I'd really like to be in shape...), but we'll see if I can keep up with that.
I've been doing my hair and makeup more often again. I really let this stuff go the more stressful school got, unless I had something to dress up for. I definitely feel more confident.
I've been continuing to improve my eating habits... or at least trying. I didn't have any milk products yesterday, and made a really healthy dinner. I hate cooking, I hate making the kitchen messy, but I always love the finished product. Putting the food on the plate in a pretty way and having a well-balanced meal just makes me feel good about myself.
I read "Nights in Rodanthe" last night. I read it a million years ago, but hated it because it was too predictable and was nowhere near as good as "The Notebook." I couldn't remember the plot and still haven't gotten a library card... so I read it. It was definitely a lot better than I remembered.
I'm... good right now. That's the only way I can say it. Things were worse for me than most people knew this semester, but I'm good right now.
