Body changes
So today I agreed to participate in a study on campus. They nearly have all the people they need in their control group, except for a few people whom they need to match up with professional ballerinas in terms of lean body mass, which I assume is muscle. Anyway, I didn't make the cut, too little muscle, but they gave me the results from my body scan and other measures. Turns out, among other things, I weigh nearly 10 lbs more than I thought! I have body dysmorphia in that I think I'm still 16. Ha! Even that's a lie, at 16 I weighed 20 lbs less than now. I wondered what I weighed 4 months ago, when I was bursting out of my clothes:) Oh well. But at least I'm healthy according the measures they took, and have surprisingly high bone density. Guess all that walking and coffee drinking has done me good.
