I know it’s wrong. I know. I know. I just don’t want to be right.

Desktop lunch review- FAIL
January 21st, 2011

I should have eaten lunch at my desk. I should have eaten my Lean Cuisine chicken with almonds and rice. But my husband called and wanted to take me out to lunch, so….buh-bye frozen food. Hello, Fork in the City. FITC is one of my favorite local restaurants. Wood fired pizzas, burgers, pasta. Fun [...]
When my knee said, “Enough!”

I have a bad knee. It wasn’t always bad. At one time it kept my upper leg nicely attached to my lower leg, moved in the correct direction when it was supposed to move, supported my weight. All the things a good knee should do. Then one day seven years ago, I fell off a [...]
Try to see it my way

Yesterday was one of those mad crazy days when there was no time to eat and I kinda wished I wore Depends. After 6 p.m. I tweeted that the only sustenance I’d had all day was two cups of coffee and two slices of cake. I know, not nutritionally sound. If you are looking for [...]
Neglect and regret

I have been absent from this blog for so long. That makes me doubly sad because I have also neglected the reason I started this blog: to figure out a way to eat good food and still lose weight. More on that later. After I returned from BlogHer, which I never got around to blogging [...]
Reasons why I suck

There are so many I hardly know where to start. It’s been a week since I came home from BlogHer 10, which was a totally amazing experience, and I have drafted several blog entries and have not published a single one. By the time I get around to posting with all the appropriate links, BlogHer [...]

It’s been a tough few weeks. In no particular order: We went on vacation, during which I got sick and spent time with the in-laws, which was weird in a way I really can’t go into on this blog. Our daughter moved out. Our beloved dog, Dexter, died unexpectedly. An intern moved in. And I [...]
My bitch du jour

You know what honks me off? Nutrition information labels. Not all of them, mostly the ones that are on snack foods. The ones that hope you don’t notice that they are playing you for a dumb ass. I have the kind of job where there are days that I have at least one hour for [...]
My overwashed jeans

I hate to exercise. I really do. I know people who are physically fit (and I’m looking at you, Olympic athletes) get high from working out, and believe me, if it made me feel like I did at parties back in the day, I would probably love it too. But I don’t get high. I [...]
A decent start

After making the monumental step of going to the gym on Sunday, I made the monumentally stupid decision to step on my bathroom scale. I would like to say it wasn’t as bad as I feared. But I hardly ever get to say what I like. I spent most of 2008 shedding 50 pounds. It [...]
