I wish.

I wish... I had reached my goal weight in 2007.

I wish... I had saved money (especially of the wedding gift variety).

I wish... I had gone right to grad school.

I wish... I had not f'ed up my undergrad.

I wish... I had followed my own mind instead of trying to be popular.

I wish... I had not been a target, a victim, a fool.

I wish.

But I didn't do.

So, now I DO.

My weight is in a bad place right now. It's bad. It's 158 (today, 160.2 yesterday). That's... not close to 135. Not close enough to get there by my 5th fativersary in January. However, I am doing something about it. Not waiting until the new year, or waiting until after finals, I'm doing something NOW. I'm going to get to 150 again by Christmas. And then I'm going to get to 135 by my birthday. I'm GOING TO because I HAVE TO.

I will reach my goal in March. I will finish this, once and for all. (And then the real work begins, I hear.) I will finish grad school in June. I will start a new job in the fall. By the end of 2012, we will have saved a down payment on a house.

Finish.
