in Introduce Yourself
Hi! I'm Heather. Please feel free to friend me if you like computers, robotics, AI, neuroscience, philosophy, logic, or any other techie fun stuff - or you just want another diet buddy - OR maybe you're stuck in grad school like me.

I am in grad school for a Master's in artificial intelligence (MSAI). That ish is really, really hard but it is probably the coolest thing I've ever done! I found myself stress eating like crazy. I guess even when what you're eating is relatively healthy, over eating can still catch up to you. Mindless eating in front of a computer is my biggest vice!

So, I'm back to take on the holidays with some MFP strategies. Hopefully I can meet some cool nerd friends along the way. :)

EDIT: In full disclosure, I'm not a new-newbie. I've been of the site for a few months but have since fallen off the wagon. (Finals week was particularly heinous!) I have lost some weight that I've managed to keep off - but I am eager to get the ball rolling again!

    I'm great. I got an early start today and am thinking of what kind of exercise I should do.

    Instead, I'm a boring accountant :(

    Feel free to add me. I work for a software developer (QA), sit in front of a computer all day, and definitely a bit of a nerd but I've managed to lose weight with careful planning and determination.

    A tip: never sit down at your desk with a bag/box of snacks. Portion it out on a plate and only take what you plan to eat to your desk.
