Been eating like there’s no bathing suit in my future. Gulp! I’m blaming it on TOM, who is about a week out yet, but a handy excuse none the less. At my age, I keep thinking every tampon box I buy will be my last. I’ve even tempted TOM to stop by buying the huge [...]

Went to the local sporting goods shop and bought two 12 pound bar bells for those days when I bag going to the gym. I got ‘em both for $1.35, since I had a great coupon, so I already feel good about them! After Sunday’s downward spiral of binge [...]

Okay my friends, so I was doing good on my calories all week end until we got home from a neighbor’s BBQ last night. My neighbor makes two things really well: lasagna and Congo Bars. Last night, she had Congo Bars as one of her deserts. I did well with them, limiting myself to one [...]

I upped the weights in my free-weight work out today, and added some old moves I had forgotten about. I’m feeling it in my arms now, baby! That pain is the teeny tiny torn muscle tissue, I’m told. Tomorrow, no weights while my muscles repair. Hag-a-licious arms and shoulders should start to appear in another [...]

Getting tired of chicken and its only been less than two weeks. Must find some other tasty protein. Hummmm… tuna steaks & turkey might be some options. Boca Burgers too! I forgot about good old Boca Burgers! Made the family turkey burgers on my George Foreman grill the other night. Sorry, but turkey cannot match [...]

That was a title of an article in a Cosmo magazine I read probably about 25 years ago–back when it was a pretty tame magazine that didn’t have to have its cover shielded at the grocery check out line. It had a centerfold-type layout of a beautiful young woman posing full-length with a measuring tape [...]

Hag happily reporting no late night eating, no excessive wine guzzling, and no going over calorie limit for the past five days. I can’t eat or drink what’s not in the house–the only fail safe way for me. When I pass the Oreos in the market, I think, “Boy, son would really like them”, but [...]

At age 49, wouldn’t you think that zits would be a thing of the past? I still get ‘em. Not huge honkin’ multi zits, but one here and there occasionally. I have a tube of Zapzit right next to my anti-hag-wrinkle cream; that just seems wrong! I’ve started taking a multi-vitamin and a fish oil [...]

Okay, so it doesn’t really rhyme too well; what the hell. Righteously worked out for 20 min.s on the eliptical and 30 min.s on weights and big blue bouncy exercise ball. I love the BBBEB. I put it up against the wall and do squats–it doesn’t bother my back to do ‘em that way. My [...]
