So this is what love feels like :).

Every time I see someone post about how it’s “sad” that they “can’t give up certain foods” or something along those lines, I want to interfere but it’s not my place. I wish we could all stop caring about losing weight. Can’t anyone see it’s not okay??

I’m slowly but surely developing a healthier relationship with food. I’m learning to ignore the desire to get on the scale because the number says nothing meaningful about me. I’m learning to respect my body for what it is and I’m moving from accepting it to loving it.

I’ve decided to cut it into an A-line bob at the end of the month! I’ll probably dye my bangs back to brown also since the teal has faded to this weird ash green. I’m mad because the woman told me it was permanent. Dan and a few others aren’t too excited for it but hair grows!

I’m not much fun of a friend to be around right now and for that I’m sorry.

At the risk of sounding cliche and corny, I have to admit I have not known happiness this great and ever-present in all my life.

I said this summer would be different but so far the only differences are I have a boyfriend that I visit and I’m exercising less. I stayed in all day today and I hated it. I need my driver’s license. I need adventure.

Texting/typing something heart-baring to someone only for them to take an eternity to reply is THE WORST.

Okay scales are consistently telling me I’ve gained 15 pounds and that’s scary but also okay. This may be the weight my body naturally wants to be. So be it.

Can I just freeze this moment in time? I don’t want to grow up.

I’m so happy I changed my major to psychology! The classes are so interesting. I looked at my degree audit and I could possibly graduate at the end of the following school year. I don’t know if I want to do that. Part of me does, but it would mean cramming more classes into these three semesters (including this summer) as well as taking my GRE very soon. It would mean graduating with two of my closest friends at UF but I’m not sure I’m ready. Idk what to do or how to make this decision. I’m also highly considering a graduate program in Wisconsin which would be a huge change for me but it’s the only program that resembles what I want to do as my career.

My arms are so weak! I bought 8lb free weights yesterday so hopefully those will help me build strength in them.

Literally the first thing one of my family members told me as I walked in the door, arriving home for summer break, was “you got chubby!” Why does my family insist on commenting on weight?
