As you can see, today’s lunch selection is sparse. That’s because I have a raging headache and the only food that appealed to me when I left for work (more than an hour late) was fruit. Today’s fare is a feast compared to yesterday’s lunch, which was non-existent. You know those stupid people who say [...]

Lately I have had a lot of strong cravings for food that I know I shouldn’t eat. Turns out, I may actually have an addiction, according to this story on the Today Show this morning. And if I do, I want to spend a little time here for recovery. While I realize on Weight Watchers, [...]

LIARS! I really dislike liars. Especially when it comes to nutrition labels. I have ranted about this before, and here it is again, this time from the folks at Healthy Choice. This SINGLE SERVING bowl of cheese tortellini soup is pimped on its front label as offering 3/4 of a cup of veggies and only [...]

I am about to share a very valuable pro tip with all you weight conscious folks who do like I do and trek into Subway a couple of times a week because it’s fast food that doesn’t have a bazillion calories and fat grams. This is important so pay attention. DO NOT order the new [...]

Originally published on tumblr Yeah, you read that right. Went to the Rolling-Stones-song-inspired restaurant today for lunch with my husband. And we had salads. Nice healthy, totally on-Weight-Watchers-plan salads. Look how pretty! And they were delicious. Just a wee bit of ham (all you see here is all I had) and lots of veggies. And [...]

This may indeed be the first weight loss blog where the blogger actually gains weight. Let me explain, as I can feel my ass widening as I am typing this and I suspect I will have a jeans explosion to deal with soon. I came home for lunch instead of eating frozen shit at my [...]

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 [...]
