We spent three days in Key West and one day (really only a night) in South Beach about 2 weeks ago. Key West was so relaxing. I can’t even describe how it felt because I’ve almost forgotten. We returned to the three crazy kids and a rough semester … already it seems [...]

Back to life
Posted in Miscellaneous on March 15, 2008 | 4 Comments »
Here I am, moved to a new blog to ensure that I’m keeping track of what I am doing.
I never totally lost my way. I stopped blogging due to a very intense semester and frustration with not losing any weight. I’ve teetered between 199 and 202 since January of this year. I’ve been doing great [...]
Self seeing
Posted in Miscellaneous on January 15, 2008 | 1 Comment »
It’s getting easier to look in the mirror without pointing out every flaw and part that needs improvement. That’s not saying that I believe any particular area is getting smaller or anything, I am just re-coaching my thought processes. Instead of saying, “Oh my hips look humongous,” I’ll immediately focus my attention to [...]
Back to WWO

One of my Christmas presents to myself was a renewed subscription to Weight Watchers Online. It was more time-consuming than I thought to do the point calculations on my own, I just couldn’t keep it up. I honestly want to attend meetings because they serve as additional motivation and help me focus on [...]

I’m now afraid of corn. All kinds of corn: corn on the cob, popcorn, cornmeal… My body can’t seem to digest it right and lately it’s gotten worse. I have been living at the mercy of the Porcelain God for days after my last bowl of popcorn. It’s a crushing [...]
Emotional non-eaters

So I was just reading this article on MSNBC about how emotional eaters tend to lose the least amount of weight and have the hardest time keeping it off. You know the type, like many people I know are, food is where they turn when things are rough. It’s easy to see how [...]

Pop Addiction
Posted in Miscellaneous on October 22, 2007 | 1 Comment »
I can’t seem to stop drinking pop this week (soda for y’all not down with the lingo). I need to stop. I keep doing the same thing over and over: go to the kitchen, grab a glass, put ice in, reach for the water but come up with a can of soda. [...]
WalkJogRun
Posted in Miscellaneous on August 17, 2007 | 1 Comment »
I am trying to figure out my routes for running and I came across this website: WalkJogRun It seems pretty cool. You can create your own routes and figure out how many miles/km it would be. If you know your pace it will approximate the time and calories too. [...]
Jedi Mind Tricks

Does anybody else do this?
I find myself trying to come up with crazy and sometimes outrageous ways to fool myself into going for the healthy snack or eating smaller portions or exercising(!!!). I noticed this when I asked for some hash browns this morning in the cafeteria. As the greasy potatoes were plopping down with the big scoop [...]
