For example my goal is to reach 165 pounds and run 2 miles in 11:30! I’m currently down 20 pounds (180) and I’m running 2 miles in 13 minutes. So ik I’m making progress towards a goal :D

I’m hoping to do well in my degree, and to get on hormones before I die of old age

Also I just noticed this is about fitness, so I should probably actually post something relevant - yeah I need to get off my ass and do couch to 5k or something, I’ve been meaning to for years

It’s more a case of waiting for my NHS appointment. It’s been three years since I got my referral to the gender clinic and I’m still waiting on my first appointment. Life is fun for a tran on TERF island

My goal is to not die of coronavirus or lung cancer before I inherit my grandma’s collection of Sean H*nnity & Laura *ngraham books. I’m worried noone else recognizes their potential as an efficient fuel source for the wood stove, and may make the mistake of thinking these are something ur supposed to read.
