Eat That Felafel!

So the next victim of the Wanganui, NZ study abroad program is the lovely Lydia (here's a link to her blog: nibsnewzealand.wordpress.com). Liz met Lydia through F.A.B. at Stout, which is a fashion magazine that Liz photographed for.  Then at study abroad orientation, I tried my best to warn Lydia of the trials she will go through.  Not that its all terrible, I just wanted her to understand the switch from fast-American life to island-time can be a little shocking.  But I tried to tell her about the good stuff too!

Today her facebook post made me giggle a bit, because I could relate.


True dat, Lydia!  I ate so much food there!  Fish & chips, kebabs, sushi, thai food, etc etc etc!

But!  I'm writing this blog post to give you hope.  July 5th 2012 I flew back into the US at 166 pounds.  This morning I weighed myself at 141.8.  It took me thirteen months but I'm feeling pretty good and it IS possible!  So go for it, eat that felafel!  :)


Weigh-in on August 4th 2013
PS - And all my pants fit too!
