I don’t want to go to my Weight Watcher weigh-in tomorrow. I haven’t checked my weight at all this week on my bathroom scale, which is calibrated correctly so it matches the one at WW. I have eaten healthy for the most part, but there was a drive-thru incident on Sunday. After I swam laps. [...]

Weigh-in day at Weight Watchers didn’t go so well. I gained a pound. After a waging a week-long battle to NOT to dive face first into gourmet cupcakes. Up a pound. And the Weight Watchers counselor asked me what I could have done better. How about nothing, bitch. NOTHING! I didn’t do anything wrong. You [...]

No desktop lunch review today* Today has been stressful, and I am disappointed in myself because my kneejerk reaction to anxiety is STILL to reach for the comfort of a cupcake. I didn’t indulge, but I was sorely tempted. I know that food is not a good way to cope with anxiety, but it’s been [...]

No desktop lunch review today. I did bring a frozen something to work, but I need to get out of the office for a while. Sometimes working through lunch is helpful, because other than taking 10 minutes to write these entries, I stay productive at my desk. But sometimes I need to escape, breathe a [...]

It’s been a week since I read the Maura Kelly blog post on fashion magazine Marie Claire’s website. In case you missed it you can click here and read it for yourself. I read it. And I read it again. And I was stunned. Then repulsed. Then angry. I went to Twitter, where many of [...]

I have started and stopped weight loss plans more times than I could possibly recall. This week I wanted to make an official start: Back on the Weight Watchers model of tracking, planning and being acutely aware of every calorie consumed and every calorie burned. And I’ve failed miserably at all of that. Next best [...]

The good thing about NaBloPoMoFo is that it gets a lazy blogger like me into the discipline of writing every day. The bad thing about NaBloPoMoFo is that some days, I have nothing even slightly interesting to write. And I am trying like hell not to make this blog a big old whine fest about [...]

I started this blog to track my progress in dropping pounds. Since I started it, I lost a little bit of weight. But I have, in all likelihood, gained that weight back and probably a little bit more. I suck. I can always come up with a million reasons why I feel the need to [...]
Someone should have been having fun

So I started the day by getting molested. Not really. I was medically molested. I met a strange woman in a parking lot and let her feel up, squeeze and photograph my boobs. Mobile mammogram. Get your mind out of the gutter. Nah, send it back the gutter. It’s much more fun there and that [...]
