Long time, no see

So… I’ve neglected this website for a year and a half or so. Well, to recap what happened: I stopped school at the end of the 2019 spring semester, I had to get an IV and have tests done to determine that I had developed an allergic reaction to my previous medication, the apartment was sold and I was able to talk my way to an early end of my lease, I moved back to South-Central Wisconsin, then the lock-downs started around March of 2020. After that, it was a whole lot of nothing.

I gained weight over the lock-downs and finally broke the dreaded 300 lbs limit with a highest weight of 305 around New Year. I started a ketogenic diet and experienced some weight-loss even before going to the gym. Now I’m down to 275 lbs. A major improvement, but still above my weight of 250 this time last year. But I have hope, as I did loose 30 lbs in less than two months. I also find that the diet has significantly improved my mental health, emotional health, and over all energy.

So I made it to the gym today. 40 minutes: nice. Walking into the robotics club I found my umbrella which I didn’t even know I lost. I left it on a seat in front of the adjacent room where I had a class 6 hours previous! I’m honestly shocked no one touched it.

Did the homework for my programming classes; now I need to do that calculus homework before Wednesday morning but tomorrow’s going to be a busy day.

It’s been a little while. I only went to the gym for two days last week; managed to get at least 40 minutes each day.

I got a grade higher than the requisite 80 on a “gateway” test in math. However it wasn’t as high as I would have liked. I have one piece of homework due Monday morning and two due Monday night. I’ll try to do my calculus homework and if I finish and am not tired, I’ll work on the other two.

Addendum: I remembered that we weren’t assigned math homework last Friday, so no homework is due Monday morning.

I fell asleep rather than do homework so I had three things to do and not enough time to do them. ultimately I decided to do homework and go to the Robotics club and sacrifice working out. I’ll make up for it tomorrow even though that means I’ll work out on two consecutive days way before I planned on.

Not much happening. I have homework due midnight tomorrow, and some more due the following morning. I should do it, but I’ll slack off instead. I’m getting through my podcast backlog that built up due to my abnormally large preference for music over the past week. I think that I’m going to have to unsubscribe from some of them, but they’re all so good.
