About Me
I’m back to living in the US! and if I ever remembered to update this thing, you would have known that over a year ago…. but check this out: living in Paris made me realize that I want to go into Public Health and Nutrition. I have a new career path so to speak, and I’m way healthier than I have ever been.
I’m about 90% vegan, but I’m working on going full throttle now that I’m graduated and living on my own. I am beginning to love running, and I get antsy if I can’t work out in some capacity.
Recently (as of summer of ‘12) I have lost a bit of weight due to the stress of work and weird eating hours. I’m definitely not complaining cause I’ve been trying to lose about 10lbs for several years now and I have hitherto found it realllllll difficult.
For the next year (sept 12-june 13), I’m working with a volunteer group called City Year. I’ll be living on $1,000 a month plus about $200 in food stamps so I’ll be tight on money and I might not be able to afford a gym. But fear not! I plan on becoming a more regular runner and a more regular racer as well. So far, I’m signed up for the Color Run in August ‘12 and I believe I’m doing another 5K in Sept ‘12.
Let’s do this thing.

Update:
I’m not really worrying too much about weight at the moment. While it would be great to be 130lbs again, I think I’ll take strength and a great physical appearance over a number on the scale. I’ve been slowly transitioning to vegan for the past month and its definitely been a struggle due to my gluten intolerance, but I’m committed to make it work. I foresee things getting much easier once I move out of my current living situation (aka living with 8 other girls and only 1 fridge) and into my senior year housing (me and 3 other girls and 1 fridge, a much better ratio).
I am working on my strength and fitness through weight lifting and running, my flexibility and sound-mindness through yoga, and my attitude through rugby. I’m learning quite a bit.
