The Placebo Effect: Types of Placebos
It seems like most people have at least heard of the placebo effect, but I think it doesn’t get the ...
Humanity is beautiful
So tonight marks the first night of passover, a Jewish Holy Day and Easter is this Sunday. Western Religions are all around this weekend and I’ve started thinking about my own beliefs. Before getting into what I believe, I would like to tell a little story. Today started out pretty amazingly. I woke up all [...]
Sticking with it
It’s been a long time since I last wrote a post. I’ve been a little depressed lately and I think that is part of the reason why I haven’t been writing. Despite my lack of motivation on the writing front, I’ve been doing alright health-wise. I lost 3 pounds last week, which was pretty awesome [...]
My story of depression
I’m losing my hope, I’m losing my faith. I’m trapped in this world, And I cannot escape. I’ve lost all my friends, And all that I hold. My body’s now heartless, So empty and cold. I’ve lost my emotions, My will to go on. My spirit is stoic, Everything’s gone. Peace will soon come, No [...]
A moment of beauty
So today I did something I haven’t done in a long time: I looked in the mirror at my body and I liked myself. I know this sounds weird, but in a world where everyone freaks out about their body image, its tough to find something to like. Yes, I am a large woman, but [...]
Blarg
Today isn’t so great. My leg hurt pretty bad last night (it seems to be mostly this leg that hurts). I did a lot of walking around yesterday, and while that doesn’t sound like a lot it was a bit much with the muscle pain. I’ve had a really tough time getting to sleep at [...]
Top 5 Reasons Being a Transfer Student is Tough
I’ve written articles in the past about the benefits and downfalls of being a transfer student, but that was before I had fully experienced transferring to a large university. I’m sure everyone has a unique experience with the transfer process, but I can say first hand that my experience hasn’t been the greatest. That is [...]
Taking a few days off cardio
So, I didn’t work out yesterday or the day before, but I’m not really having a problem with that right now. I tore my soleus muscles about 3 weeks ago when I was trying to push myself too hard and went jogging on a steep hill. As you can see in this photo, the soleus [...]
A decent start
So it has been a few days since my first blog post about my exercise goals and health and I’ve been doing well so far. I’ve worked out for 3 consecutive days and it definitely hurts, but not enough to give me any excuses. Today I was feeling pretty depressed and after finding no solace [...]
The Beginning
I’ve always been fat. I remember back in 3rd grade we had a fitness exam in class. Everyone was sharing their weight and I was thoroughly confused by the numbers I was hearing. I swore they told me I weighted 82 lbs, but even the boys in my class didn’t weigh much more than 75. [...]
About The Author
So, I’m a college student and my brain is a little crazy. (Good intro, right?). I often feel overwhelmed by the information that college life throws my way, so I decided to start a blog to talk about those things.
