I'm in the last week or so of my studies and whenever I'm stressed academically, I tend to stuff my face with food AND not do much exercise. Bad combo. ;) So my immediate plan is to stop stuffing my face so much. Then I will get back into walking.Trishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16927558937796802496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2115704751652270450.post-4854133669438895402016-10-27T04:43:23.729-04:002016-10-27T04:43:23.729-04:00Congrats on your weight loss!
