Hi all!
2016 has been a crazy insane year for me... Plenty of good, positive things have happened, lots of changes in my life.
It has been exhausting and also exciting. I got a fantastic new job and moved to another city.
It started on January, I had a brain scan because there was a chance (very low actually) that I might have had a brain tumor, a kind that's curable with hormones, but still super scary. I had to wait over a month to get the results, thank Goodness no cancer, but was not in a good mind set and emotional state fot a couple months....
In the meanwhile I was looking for jobs and was still recovering from two surgeries I underwent on 2015.
My girlfriend graduated on March or so, and a few weeks after I decided to break up with her. Plenty of good reasons there, but it still hurts. We lived together for over 3 years and the whole time I wished to marry her after she finished her master. Unfortunately I realized during those months that we were not a team....probably she had a different idea of what being in a relationship means.
At the end of April I was interviewed for the job I got and within 3/4 weeks I moved to the city where I am living and working now. It has been tough to leave my good friends and a place that felt so familiar after 6 years living there.
Anyway some of my good friends also moved out of that city, so it wouldn't have been the same anyway living there.
The new job has been challenging, exciting but also exhausting....together with finding a flat, furnishings it and settling in a brand new place. It's been really tough. In the meanwhile I went on with my part time masters degree (the second one).
A lot has happened during the past months.... I went again to the Netherlands and seen my ex husband after 5 years. I met some good friends of mine in different European cities. Went to the Netherlands again on a business trip.
Before xmas I visited some friends of mine in northern Italy and in Rome. Went home to my fathers and felt like having a family again since my mum passed away 6 years ago. It was amazing to spend time with my grandma after one year since my last visit.
I came back to Germany and had seen my new group of friends. Finally ordered a wardrobe, studying for my exam of next week and getting ready to go back to work next week as well.
So much has changed during this year. Adapting to a new place has always been tough, this time is no exception.
Being single again after sharing my life with a wonderful girl for 3 and a half years is also tough.
All in all I am doing fine and that's what counts.
Foodwise, as long as I put my energies and time in caring about food choises and preparing my own food for work, I was still either loosing weight or limiting the damage. Since work and setting up a new home took so much of my energy, I did poor choises regarding food and sports. As a consequence, I gained back weight and I am again close to the maximum weight I ever reached. It's really scary to realize that it's so easy to let go and get myself become obese.
My resolution for 2017 is to take better care of my health and enjoy life. I want to shed those pounds (20!!!) and start being active again.
Since a couple days I joined the gym and after my exam want to start counting calories again.
The aim would be to create a deficit/gap of about 500 calories per day. What scares me food wise are the 3 months I will spend in the USA this year (well, it's also pretty exciting!!). I want to learn again workout sequences that don't require equipment, in order to exercise also when I will be traveling.
The year ahead is pretty exciting! I will be learning a lot for the job, which is a bit scary, a great opportunity and a good challenge all at the same time. I want to travel to Hawaii and explore the National Parks in California, visit New York and possibly the Moab desert.
I also want to start looking for a new partner.... I have been dating a few persons between summer and fall, but I wasn't ready to start anything.
I will hopefully be ready with my masters on April and then would like to start having flying lessons. I also want to try surfing and for sure paragliding! :-)
The last 8 years of my life have been full of events, especially emotionally tough ones. I want to start embracing again the adventurous side of life, and at the same time starting to design my future.
In 3 years probably I won't have to travel too much for work and I could have a dog, I really would like to have a German shepherd again :-)
Have a good time, FS buddies!
