Clean Eats
Hoping to start getting back on track with clean eating and working out. Summer is coming fast and I would love to lose some weight before I hit the beach!

22
Well, I am 22 and I realized something very unfortunate and depressing on my birthday (I did have a pretty great birthday though)..
Last year before I transferred to Mankato, I was very fit and active in Moorhead. I was going to the gym everyday in the morning doing Weight Watchers and I began to feel very confident about myself and all that. I looked great and I felt great! Since I've transferred that has really gone down the pooper. I was scared of a new gym and a new environment. I've only gone to the gym a couple of times and I stopped doing Weight Watchers. I feel so unhappy about my body sometimes, even though I am a firm believer that everyone is beautiful, sometimes it's just hard.
I've been pretty down about my body and my activity level. I want to get back into shape, I'm just having a hard time getting motivated. I've been trying to go walk more and do more but then I get bummed out and blah! (It also does not help that I suffer from depression and it has gotten worse since transferring..)
So I decided that I do not want to waste year 22 of my life being sad about my body. I do not want to be unhappy, overweight, and inactive. I want to be 22, confident, healthy, and fit! So I've made a commitment to myself from now I am going to actively practice portion control, begin to work out more, and try to eat cleaner. So I am hoping that I don't give up on myself! I am ready to be happy and healthy again!
So here's to hoping that this year, I will lose the weight I gained and gain back the confidence I lost! I'm going to work as hard as I can. So I might need some external motivation at some points!
Until next time!

Why Is It So Cold?
A rant... by me because I am cold.
Well, since it is March I automatically assumed it was going to be nice all of a sudden and the snow would melt and it would be spring. This was a false assumption, which I really should have foreseen, but come on... Does it have to be THIS cold?
The worst part is that the weather taunted us with nice weather two weeks ago! I wore a sweatshirt to the bank! But now I have to bundle up in five layers to just walk to my car. I am not a happy camper
But I am also a happy camper in some respects because it is two days until my birthday, 22! Can't wait to hear Taylor Swift over and over.
Until next time.
