I have been sleeping at the wrong time for the past week. It's currently 3:45am and I'm still awake. I thought I'd come here and say something clever but I might just end up saying something dumb since I'm not fully awake. I suppose I should proofread this post for typos.
Well for starters, there's been many ups and downs lately. Lot's of surprises and unexpected things. I wish my health was better and I will try to regain better health soon - first step is to sleep well and eat well. I have not been eating as healthy as I had been maybe a few months ago. It started with school and from there it just kind of went downhill - especially the last few weeks of cramming to submit work for the grad display and the last course too. Now that school is done it's full on wedding planning, stuff, and India.
Maybe in order to get me back to focusing on my health again I should do a post or something on my healthy habits. Plus quite a few of you keep asking me about my "diet." To be honest, I don't do diets and I don't like to associate that word with what I'm doing. Cause diets have a bad reputation for weight loss that just eventually goes back to weight gain and this is not what I have adopted into my life. I call my healthy habits more of a lifestyle, which takes commitment. It doesn't mean eliminating the good fatty foods in my life but it does mean limiting them. What I find is I actually like my healthy foods more than the junk food. It's how my body responds to the healthy foods that keeps me eating healthy. I have such bad reactions to junk food sometimes that I really don't think it's worth it to eat whatever I can find. I stay away from burgers, chips, pop, and a few other things that I can't think of right now. It's easy for me to stay away from pop since I've never really liked it all that much to begin with. But believe me, I do eat french fries and ice cream, just not all at the same time..
Anyway, as for weight loss, that isn't even my focus. My focus is to live healthy so that I can do the things I love and feel good about myself. When I aim to live healthy, weight loss usually plays a role and it just happens automatically. I used to focus a lot on dieting but that usually is a short term goal that ends up going nowhere. Plus I'm not really a big or obese person so weight loss just didn't make much sense to me. Anyway, that's enough about health cause I need to get back to being full on healthy. I've been slack lately... hence I am awake at such a wrong time.
Good night y'all.

Hey! Aww sorry to hear that life has got you down...hope you get back into healthy habits and find a way to manage your stress. I've been going to Hatha yoga classes lately and it really helps me with feeling less stressed.
Re. the AA nail polish: Before I apply it, I scrape the stem of the brush and one side of the brush bristles against the rim of the bottle to get rid of any excess that might drip down.
Hey I think that turned out to be a rather clever entry =)
I really agree that diets are short-term and frequently goes back to weight gain.
At least your sleeping habits allow you to have convos with ME after I get off work lately! =)
I hope you feel better soon though. CP said that the India Team has been getting attacks lately. I'll be praying for you all <3
