    I struggle with being active. It's so easy to sit on the computer all day or stay in. Particularly as a student it's easy to be holed up in the library all day. Study breaks are actually so much more refreshing when I take a walk around the quad!

    Injuries.
    Hurt my shoulder lifting in November, it finally healed up 2 weeks ago but I injured my thumb 1 week ago on a snowboarding trip. I usually end up with 2-3 knee injuries per year too.

    Honestly, forgetting to eat (I have SEVERE short term and long term memory loss,yayyyy) and eating enough. I was over 300 lb so people would naturally think it was due to overeating everyday but in truth, it wasn't. I would not eat for a day or two and suddenly remember "hey, I'm hungry" and then binge on taco bell or eat a whole pizza.and then the cycle would repeat.But now that I eat consciously and set alarms to eat it's working alot better to say the least.

    I do still have problems eating enough. Half the time I have to eat 3 tbls of peanut butter after dinner to make sure I'm getting over 1200 calories. I just don't have an appetite.
    But there are a few days that taco bell just yells at me...=( What's worse is it's literally a block away from my house.

    When we have chocolate in the house, I just plan my daily calories to allow for me to have a piece or two. That way, I don't play the mind game of "I CAN'T have that!" Which is a trigger for binge eating for me. I also make sure that when I DO get chocolate, I savor every bite.

    I struggle with the recalcitrant little kid in me who doesn't want to log and doesn't want to plan and wants to eat whatever she wants whenever she wants. I am trying to teach her that there is an adult in charge.
