I was in the midst of finals and wedding festivities that this thing sorta slipped to the wayside.
Things on this end are alright though! My weight fluctuates like the Hoover Dam (I'm not totally sure that makes any sense...) but it's going! And my sisters wedding is in just a few short weeks.
But right now, I want to take time to talk about somethings I've been learning over these past couple months.
1. Hard work does pay off.
For the first time in my life I got straight A's! I worked my butt off to do it, but it was so worth it. Also, I freaking love what I'm studying, so that definitely helps. Also for the first time I didn't quit or give in when things became difficult. I stuck with it and pushed through. Sought help when it was needed and prioritized my time. For those of you who knew me college, you would know this is a complete 180!
2. You are what you eat.
When I indulge in crappy food I feel crappy, I act crappy, I do crappy things, and I propel the crappy cycle. When I eat well, my body feels well, I make smarter decisions, and I desire to propel that cycle. Lots of beer and pizza makes me do dumb things. Though both delicious, I tend to feel like crap when I indulge in that. So, I am practicing healthier habits. Like not drinking during the week and avoiding late night snacking even when I am partaking in adult activities.
3. It's easier to see in the light.
This is the biggest and most important thing I have been learning. Recently I have decided to walk in the light with somethings I have kept buried for years. It is what propelled my self hatred, my guilt, and my shame. And as I have taken those steps to bring it to light and start to view it the way God views it, I am learning more and more how deeply loved I am. And that is HUGE.
I guess that's it for now. Hopefully it won't be another 2 months before my next post!
