The year I will:
Eat healthier and stop poisoning my body with crap.

It’s almost time to start over…
Crap.
I know. Good attitude. But hey, at least I’m honest.

So I got fed up with the no lose and started WW on-line last Wednesday. So far so good. I will weigh in tomorrow and have Monday be the day of reckoning! Anyhow I have been looking around for good recipes with low points and found this beef stew recipe! I have not tried it [...]
A slow start

I did finally get my bracelet from Kathy, which of course means that NOW I can finally start dieting to lose these 10 pounds. Unfortunately I have actually gained 5 since signing up here, so I got that bracelet in the nick of time. Stupid Halloween.
I was going to post a picture of the pretty [...]
Weaning and Weight
Posted in Uncategorized on November 11, 2008 | 4 Comments »
So. That Happened.
I somehow managed to add another 7 pounds during my week of weaning off of the anti-depressant, Cymbalta. I knew what I was doing with my weight whenever I was eating ravenously. I just figured I was a mental mess and couldn’t deal with the stress of watching what I ate.
It was kind [...]

Dang. I’m getting bracelets returned to me from the post office. Seems I have to add more postage for hand-cancelled letters. Sorry about that. I’ll resend those that come back.

The Bracelets are Made

I don’t know about you people but I am still losing and gaining the same 3 pounds this week. It’s the bracelets. We need the bracelets!
Which, by the way, are done but need to be shipped. That’d be me who has to do the shipping. Me, the procrastinator. This is my lofty goal for this [...]

My Dixie Vegetable Soup is simmering on the stove right now. (recipe later) Broccoli and carrots and leeks and organic peanut butter and organic soy sauce. Lordy, I’m a healthy person.
At this time of the day.
Had you followed me earlier, say about lunch time, you’d have busted me working on a Pumpkin Spice malt from [...]

I’ve made 8 bracelets today. I meant to get them all done but I took a nap instead. Besides, I can’t find my little tube of jewelry glue and I can’t send these out with adding a bit of glue to the knot.
Soon, my friends. Soon. Hang in there.
I have been losing and gaining the [...]

The Numb-Numbs

Just wanted to check in and find out how everybody’s weekend eating was going? Have the Numb-Numbs taken over (you know, those things in your head that allow you to eat without thinking about what you’re eating?)
My Numb-Numbs are under control. Unfortunately, the later it gets in the day, the more powerful the Numb-Numbs are. [...]

I was having this perfectly good healthy eating day. Following my plan for food that I’d set in the morning. And then, without thinking (sort of) I picked up a box of Crunch N Munch and proceeded to eat alot of it.
What is it with the In Shock eating. Because, really, that’s what it feel [...]
Gonna Buy Me a Dog

Today’s healthy fuel for me starts with an apple and cheese slices. A six inch ham & turkey with all the veggies sandwich from Subway for lunch. Soup with grilled cheese for dinner. I’ve got pumpkin seeds and a healthy nut & fruit mix for snacks. Get thee behind me, KFC!
And for exercise? My Personal [...]
Soup’s On

I don’t know. Maybe I shouldn’t tell you this. But I’m going to anyway. That’s how I am. We had KFC for dinner.
I ate one and 1/2 pieces. With skin.
The reason I tell you this is because even though I ate something that would make any Weight Watcher weep, having used up their flex points [...]
Planning Your Fuel
Posted in Uncategorized on October 8, 2008 | 11 Comments »
I think a good way to start a new 10 pound weight loss is to spend a little time each morning figuring out what you’re going to eat today. And then trying not to stray too much from your pre-planned choices.
That reminds me – I need to get to the grocery store for some vegetables. [...]
