I think four years is also how long it’s been since I wrote a blog post.

I love you, honey. Happy four years, and here’s to the rest.

Thanks Poppy! When I was rereading it I just was like wow I am such a downer. But it’s good that I didn’t come across that way because I didn’t feel that, was just letting myself ramble a bit.

I’m just glad I realized it wasn’t working for me and knew to change. I’d hate to put on the weight I’ve lost because I thought I was being healthy.

I guess my only hesitation about it would be that I would have to quit to pursue my Masters (I’d want to go full time since the program I’m looking at is 3 years full time). I don’t know. Like I said I’m probably just out psyching myself, as I do.

I’ve doing a miss-mash of things too. I still like a lot of paleo-type desserts but that’s mainly because they are less sweet and I find I am liking that more.

Your post didn’t sound to me like you were sad, if that’s at all helpful.

I like that you tried a new way of eating, realized when it wasn’t working, and made an intelligent decision to stop that way of eating. Empowering!

It took me 9 months to find a job after I was let go from my last corporate job. It was not fun. I hope for you that the best thing presents itself first (job vs. grad school).

Even if you want to go back to get your Masters, why let that limit how you see any job potential? If I’ve learned anything in my 40 years it’s that you can’t predict the future. Might as well enjoy the present! Maybe you will find a great job & it will fuel you towards your masters or maybe a different path? The world is your oyster.

I quit paleo a few months back too. I am re-focused on eating healthy but it’s my own mish-mash of things I’ve learned work for me & my body over the years. Congrats on your healthy lifestyle!

I know what you mean! Where I lived it was so hot in summer you were crazy if you went outside and now I’m like sun I have to be outside, now! I guess that’s what happens when you have to go without it for 9 months every year.

I still color in my eyebrows and do mascara as a bare minimum makeup if I’m wearing makeup. The downside of being a blond is that nothing shows up without a bit of color. But I’ve been caring less and less. Mainly it’s only if someone is taking my picture do I care if I’m wearing any.

YES! That is one of the reasons I don’t fully hate the rain. I just wish it was less when I’m ready for it to be spring already.
