Maintaining (hovering?) with a few pounds to go

Today the scales read 147.8 which is either at goal or a few pounds over, depending on which goal I choose to look at. I think I could stand to lose a little more flab around my belly, but I don’t know if that will translate into many more pounds, since I really need to [...]

So Close

I’ve been within five or ten pounds of my goal for a while now. I don’t know what weight I will be when my body reaches the sweet spot, but it’s close. I know my body will continue to reabsorb and tighten up, so the number on the scales doesn’t matter so much, but I [...]

Working My Butt Off, Quite Literally

I don’t think this is what is meant by working your butt off, but I must have done a few too many sit ups yesterday, and have rubbed off the skin around my tail bone. I felt the rub when I was going (and going and going), but I didn’t realize that I’d actually broken [...]

Look What the Cat Dragged In

Oh look, it’s my blog.
Did you miss me or did you not even notice I was gone? For some reason, I just never feel like I have the proper time–and perhaps energy–to put into this blog. Naturally, I want to be witty and entertaining, but when I have the time to write, [...]

Which came first…?

…the weight loss or the accountability?
My goodness, August slipped right by me. I was not very good about my weight loss, and even worse about posting to my blog. I wonder if the lack of accountability contributed to my poor weight loss, or if my poor weight loss contributed to my lack of accountability. Regardless, [...]

Is This Where I Left My Blog?

I only made two posts last month! I shouldn’t even be allowed to have a blog. It’s funny though, I think about making blog entries. I compose them in my head, and then when I think about actually sitting and writing them, I think “Ugh, boring” or I feel like I don’t have time to [...]

I look like a shar pei

I know my body will eventually reabsorb all this extra skin (or so I hope), but EEEEeeewwww! I am starting to look pretty good with clothes on, having lost over 50 pounds now, but I gotta say, my stomach, boobs, thighs and school teacher arms have some nasty, saggy, wrinkly skin. It’s really cute on [...]

And Now For Something Completely Different

Ready?
So am I… I’m finding this calorie counting to be onerous drudgery. It’s time for me to start memorizing some numbers so I can just plug in calories or something. I don’t even want to cook because it’s such a pain in the arse to plug in the whole recipe and then determine how much [...]

Summertime, and the living ain’t easy.

Who was it that wrote about the lazy days of summer? They obviously weren’t doing the same thing I’m doing. I can’t even remember what it felt like as a kid having the summers off to sleep in and do nothing all day.
Don’t get me wrong, I love my job of organizing a combined CSA [...]

Life is a Bowl of Granola

Check out my breakfast yesterday. This is my granola:

So this, scrumptious photo looks like just a bowl full of berries–luscious strawberries, cherries, blueberries and raspberries, all bursting ripe and fresh and local. But invisible under the berries is the small amount of granola that was singing in happiness at its good fortune of being among [...]
