Alright, so. I have a new goal (and reward) for myself.
This summer break, I want to lose weight.
What spurred this, you may ask? Well, I know that I've gained weight over the last year, on and off, and I weighed myself today.
I am now at...
(drum roll please)
130.
Ugh.
For those of you who haven't seen me without heels, 5'1 is my natural height. And two years ago, I was around 120. That made me much happier.
I know I can't lose too much, since a good chunk of the number is muscle, but there have been trouble spots I've been eyeballin' for a while now.
But I've set my goal weight at 115lbs.
I'm not doing crazy dieting. I've always hated that, mostly from a zoologist's standpoint. More on that later, if anyone is confused.
No, it'll be portion control and exercise. I hope to hit up the bike path with Dad at least twice this summer, since it'll give me exercise and Dad therapy for his knee.
And my reward for losing 15 pounds, other than satisfaction?
I won't let myself get my tattoo until I reach my goal.
Go team Haz!
Now, off to read Pride and Prejudice before bed, seeing as how
shadowravyn's wedding invite (damn you!) inspired me to dig it out again.
