NBD, just rocking life.

Oh hey. I have a blog.

I'm still here. I haven't fallen off the wagon. Sure, I plateaued for about 3 months right around 203 pounds, but I made it through the holidays and guess what?

I'm under 200 pounds for the first time in 5 years. I'm wearing size 16 jeans, and a L/XL shirt. I recommitted on January 2nd and the holiday pounds have been coming off slowly but surely.

I feel AWESOME.

This is what I have been up to since my last post, in early October, starting from now and going backwards.

Holy crap, skinny jeans. Who am I.


And way back when, I said to myself that if I ever got below 200 pounds (and mentally added AND STAYED THERE), I would cut my hair.

So.

(This was actually early December, but I knew that the holidays were going to be a pain in the butt so I waited until last weekend.)

Before.

10 inches gone. I'm donating it to Children With Hairloss.

Straightened-ish.

Natural.

My friend Emerald got me hooked on Korean dramas and I have been binge watching them.

I've  been seeing a fantastic guy for about 3 1/2 months now. He's awesome.

I got my house all kinds of rearranged and even set up a home office in my front bedroom.



Because I've gone back to school and am working on my master's degree.




I had Ethiopian food and it was AMAZING.




I had an amazing brunch with my beautiful friend at the Hotel Hershey.

I had some amazing Korean food.



I baked a LOT over Christmas.

I ran an entire 5K with said beautiful friend in Virginia in early December. I may or may not have blasted the Rocky theme song from my cell phone.






I ran a Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning.


I did the Color Run in Baltimore in November with a group of fantastic ladies, including Holly from Mama Bear Blogs.

I took an archery class and have horrible form and need a better bra.


That's what I've been up to. I swear I'm going to try to be better about posting here.
