The degree was very hard, not just to get the degree, but to keep up the grades each Mod. These were accelerated classes, so there was no time for screwing off. I had tons of homework in three classes at a time, and it didn't let up for nearly 2-1/2 years.

But the weight loss has been even tougher. Not being able to eat like a pig anymore has been hard, but I have the same determination that I put into everything I do, so I've been pretty successful so far. I have managed to quit all the other vices that were killing me or bad for me, so this one is next to go! I've lost many waist sizes, but I have many more to go. Now, I can run around the bases without getting winded. Before, I couldn't go up a flight of stairs without huffing and puffing.
