fleaball Posted October 12, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 12, 2016 I had capital-p Plans for tonight. I was gonna be so productive. But I was 45 minutes late getting home because of bus problems and now my internet won't work. Clearly god wants me to just chill tonight. Also I really want waffles. 3 Quote Level 69 Battle Kitten Battle Log | Current Challenge MyFitnessPal | Fitbit | Duolingo Ici je vis la vie que j'ai choisie Je suis partie pour reconstruire ma vie C'est dit, c'est ainsi Link to comment

fleaball Posted October 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 After half an hour of restarting my computer and resetting my router repeatedly I got it to work. But whatever lingering motivation I'd had was totally gone at that point. Today is a new day to get stuff done though. 3 Quote Level 69 Battle Kitten Battle Log | Current Challenge MyFitnessPal | Fitbit | Duolingo Ici je vis la vie que j'ai choisie Je suis partie pour reconstruire ma vie C'est dit, c'est ainsi Link to comment

Owlet Posted October 13, 2016 Report Share Posted October 13, 2016 Life likes to throw obstacles in the way whenever we try to do something good! Why you gotta be like that life? All the more reason to push through it though. Here's to a new day, and to getting over obstacles. 6 Quote Current Challenge Link to comment

I mean we were coming at it from a structural perspective, like food deserts and processed food being cheaper than fresh, etc. But it was awkward as fuck mostly because it's a class of 10 women and only one other girl is visibly overweight so ugh. I'm sure I was the only one judging me but I kept thinking "ugh how can I talk about this shit when I'm clearly overweight/technically obese." Bleh. 1 Quote Level 69 Battle Kitten Battle Log | Current Challenge MyFitnessPal | Fitbit | Duolingo Ici je vis la vie que j'ai choisie Je suis partie pour reconstruire ma vie C'est dit, c'est ainsi Link to comment

I think you're right though in guessing you're the only one judging. They're probably all feeling self conscious too, because yay society has taught us ladies we need to be thin. I hope they are looking into this in a detailed way? Because obesity is such a complex issue, you really can't put it down to any one thing. Try to be kind to yourself (I know how impossible that seems sometimes) but hey, I bet none of them are on nerd fitness actively trying to improve their life and health.

Giving up forever would be a failure, sure, but just because you're not doing as much as you feel like you should be doesn't mean you're doing nothing.

I was just about to say that I'm still worried about fucking up my ankle but then it occured to me that we jogged a bit at the Spartan and I was fine until I wiped out on that wall.
