Update & College

I have not updated in a while, so I thought it was about time. I have been stuck at a plataeu with my weight loss for a long time now, probably about 6 months so I felt no need to update during that time.

I saw my nutrionist today (well yesterday since it is now friday) and finally showed a loss on her scale ( a whopping .4 of a pound, but still a loss). Going to start training more, eating under 1500 calories, keep tracking what I eat, and hopefully get back on the right track.

College has been tough to maintain with my weight loss schedule (or vise versa?) but I have been doing my best.

I passed Macroeconomics I know, the final grade I am not sure of yet, but I will either have a 79 percent or an 81 percent (will clarify when I know for sure).

Writing class is going okay, got to revise my stories, I think poetry is more of my venue than story writing. However, I need the elective credit to graduate.

Science. Now that I am concerned about. The labs have taken a lot of energy, but I think the professor will like my work. Still a lot of work in that class even though the semester ends in 14 days. (2 tests, 1 quiz, and the big lab portfolio).

Health, will go into January, so no christmas break. Need the class to graduate though so will do what needs to be done. The class isn't too hard in all honesty. There are 6 assignments due a week, but they are not hard.

Next semester I will be taking Biology, College Algebra, Spanish, and music appreciation. My graduation audit stated that I needed 1 more science class, and 1 math and a few more electives.

Will update on final grades after December 21st.

Update 15

It has been a while since I have posted an update. There has not been a lot of news to update with so I haven't really felt the point in posting one. However, I figured now was a good chance to let anyone who stops by know what is going on.

This month I saw my doctor and my nutritionist. At the doctor's office I lost another 18 pounds in 3 months. So that is just about 50 pounds since June. Since my highest weight I have lost about 58 pounds.

My A1c also got rechecked and unfortunately it went up to 6.8 (from being 6.7 three months ago) It's not a huge deal but I want to get under 6 %.

My nutritionist also would like me to be interviewed for the local paper. Since March is a month about nutrition, she wants to get some recognition out in the community and let people know that dieting can be done the right way. It may not be easy, or always fun but it is doable. Commitment and focus are very important, not just diet and exercise.

Anyway, that is the most important information for my little update.

Until next time, I will talk to all of you soon.

Update: Week 13

Finally, another update! Here is my 13th update (although it really is like the 18th week because I skipped a few updates).

Friday I saw my nutritionist again and got a lot of good news. Lost almost 7 more pounds. Found out my a1c result. 6.7 percent (or 147 average). My goal is to get the average under 140.

My nutritionist also gave me the Just Dance 2 for the Wii as a christmas gift! It's a lot of fun, so I would recommend it for anyone looking for a fun workout.

I cannot think of anything to add to this update, so until next time...I will talk to all of you soon.

Birthday & Update.

Today was another Friday, so I weighed in and lost another pound....bringing the total to 40 pounds! 30 pounds of that I lost since June when I was diagnosed with Diabetes. I can see that my blood sugar seems to be getting in better control with the more weight I lose and I still have about 70 pounds to go.

On another note, my Birthday is Sunday. I will be 23. Nothing too fancy planned, just will spend it with family and have some Pizza. Since it's a special occasion seems like it would be okay to Indulge.

Finally, I've been working on my second novel. The first novel I have not given up on, but I am giving it a rest. I am excited about the novel and am finding a lot of new ideas. I will post about it sometime after Sunday. I hope you all will enjoy to find out what it will be about....and I hope one day I will be able to find a great publisher who will publish it.

Till next time, I will talk to all of you soon.

Just an update;

Just wanted to post a little update, since I havent in a few weeks. Met with my nutritionist today, things are going well in that area. Lost 6 pounds in 5 weeks. Since around the middle of June I have lost around 25 pounds; over 30 pounds since I first began this journey. I hope to start posting every Friday again, but I'm not good with keeping up with things like that.

Until next time; talk to all of you soon.
