One thing to note is that I've given several pieces of advice on these boards in the last day. A lot of that comes from the fact that I see bits of myself in a lot of these posts, so I'm also the audience of the advice.
It's kind of like telling my subconscious these things. So yeah, I have 30 or so pounds I am losing (thanks annie!) and time that I am opening up for myself to practice yoga and walking outside.
