PT School is Sucking the Life Out of Me

Sorry for the hiatus. PT school is killing me...and my waist line.

In the past two weeks I have had: taco bell, chick-fil-a, bojangles, chipotle, panera, and countless slices of pizza (and beers).

I haven't gained any weight--probably because I never sleep anymore because I'm always studying--however, I also have not had the opportunity to work out and it's honestly killing me. In our physiology class the other day we did skin-fold and waist/hip ratio tests and I am considered to be in the healthy-ish range which is awesome for me (and my confidence). But the longer I keep these horrible eating habits up, the more likely I'm going to be back in the 200s, which I never ever want to see again in my life.

I never see my husband or my daughter, I never sleep, I never workout and I eat like shit. It's safe to say that PT school is awful so far. I literally have never been more miserable in my life than I am now. I know that it will be worth it in the end and nothing worth doing is going to be easy, but seriously...I'm riding the struggle bus--no, I'm driving the struggle bus.

As I type this, I am chowing down on super bad, yet super good taco bell (the second time I've eaten it this week). What is wrong with me?!?!?!?

Positives: I'm making some great friends, I won season tickets for men's basketball (basketball is HUGE at this school), I am learning some pretty cool stuff.

I guess I need to focus on the positives.

Monday is my very first huge Anatomy exam and I've been studying for this entire past week. Hubs was so kind and to take Bubs back to the homeland for the weekend so I have the house all to myself to study/sleep. I must admit it's been nice, but I miss them terribly. It's quiet...too quiet.

Anyway, I'm hoping that I will overcome the initial insanity and get into a better rhythm where I actually see my family, get all my work done, and still have time to exercise and eat right. I don't know if I'm imagining some sort of fantasy world, but hopefully with time I'll get there. Some of the girls in my class have been going for short runs a few times each week, so I think I'll start joining them. I've never ran with anyone except for Mike, so I'm a bit nervous, but we have our annual 5K run in a few weeks and I don't want to die while doing that, so I should probably take some initiative and do it.

Anyway, that's my update. Back to studying....sigh....
