Graduation is in my grasp! (and other life events)

I've received word today that my program requirements have been achieved and I'm all set! Nothing will get in the way of me and my U of G degree! Five interesting years, great friends, great lessons learnt all in all some of the best years of my life, but I'm ready to move on close a chapter and start a new.

We've started looking for a new apartment, lots of website browsing and touring. We are looking for a June/July move in date and I'm starting to get very excited! I have decorating plans dancing in my head! As they say, it seems like the pieces are all in place...

On the diet front I'm hoping that my good feelings toward the documenting part of the WW plan doesn't fade. Though, I am really enjoying the fact that I can eat anything in moderation, while learning life long skills like potion control and creating well balanced meals. It's moderately tedious having to document every morsel of food I consume in day. That being said I think its an important step at this point because I really need to focus on caloric and fat intake that i otherwise wouldn't really think about...Probably the root of my problem to begin with...apathy will get ya like that...

I also bought a new bathroom scale today, it not only tells you your weight but also measures body mass, bone density and muscle mass. Which is pretty spiffy! I also picked up a new yoga mat and some 5 pound weight along with a balance ball so I can do some light yoga/exercise at home when I'm feeling restless or bored (better than picking up a bag of chips I think). The best part about the lifestyle change is that my boyfriend is behind me 100% of the way, joining me at the gym (even yoga though he claims it's harder than a hour on the elliptical and weights!), eating healthy and cutting back on things like alcohol and other indulgences. It's great to be changing for the better together. That may sound totally cheeseball but it's true. Everything is easier with a partner in crime!

Peace and Love!
