These are exciting times, dear readers! I just moved into an apartment for the first time. I expect this to be quite the experience. I’ve always either lived on campus or at home. I will now have a lot more control over what I buy and what I eat, so dieting will be much easier (in some ways at least). The real drastic phases of my experiment are coming up soon. Also, I want to try to grow some vegetables while I am in this apartment and I’m sure that will have its own unique challenges. I have just been so busy lately, finishing up two classes, moving everything I own into this apartment, and moving other people’s furniture all over the place. Add to that I haven’t had internet access for a few weeks (which is a serious problem for me).

I did make a follow up post to 10 Reasons the Freshman Fifteen Gets You, which I was told was a helpful article. I have also made a few small updates to the site. There is a new About page that goes into a little more detail about yours truly. I thought it would be a good idea to create a page detailing my diet, since it was previously ambiguous.

One last thing. I received my calipers in the mail and I really need to get around to using them. From what I’ve read, the charts that come with it aren’t so good and you are advised to seek additional charts online. I’ll write about that after I have it all figured out.
