Made quinoa for the first time. Really liked it. The husband liked the flavor, but wasn't sure about the texture.

Hanging out downtown during Summer Nights. The Synthetics were playing.

Biking through downtown on our way to look at a potential rental home.

Picture A Day - Day 2

Today I biked downtown to do homework at a coffee shop. After a two week road trip it was really nice to bike around a familiar place.

Picture A Day - Day 1

I am going to try to post more often on here. I figure the easiest way to get in the habit is by posting a picture and a short description. Hopefully after a few weeks I will be up to posting longer posts. 

Watched Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Movie and did school work. 

I Hate My Body

I know thats a terrible title, but I need to be honest. In college I gained about 40 pounds. I am now trying really hard to lose all of that weight, but am failing miserably. I feel like as soon as I start to make some progress something goes wrong and I fail again. I eat healthy and usually pay attention to my portion sizes. I workout a few times a week. I know being at home all day does not help, but until I find a job I don't know how to change this.

This post is my way of saying screw you body and brain I am going to succeed. I am posting a picture of what I want to look like and what I look like now. I was given an ultimatum by the husband to lose 10 lbs by May or I have to go to see a doctor. Well what he doesn't know is that I am due for my annual check-up in May anyways.

So here is to success.
