Isn’t it funny how we always think that crossing over to January 1st is going to magically change our lives? LOL. I don’t normally encourage New Years Resolutions, but this year, I’m a believer! During the last couple of months, my food/health habits have declined, and my weight has creeped up to 141ish. Take out [...]

1000 Straight Days of Logging Into MyFitnessPal
Whoo hoo. Today marks the 1000th day of login days at MyFitnessPal! Even though I am in weight-loss maintenance, for me, it’s important to continue logging my daily food intake. It keeps my calories and other nutritional data on track and since my diary is open to my MFP friends, it keeps me accountable. Happy [...]
October Unprocessed 2011 – Day #15 & 135.6 lbs
Yay! I’m half way through my October Unprocessed 2011 challenge! There have been a couple of flubs along the way, but I’m not worrying too much. Life is too short to beat yourself up with too much nitpicking. In general, I think I am doing a great job with the challenge. And a bonus! I [...]
136 – Low, probably TOO Low
I weighed in this morning at 136 pounds. Yeah, that’s a bit too low I think. I’m happy with 137, 138. I think it’s time to increase the calories back up to 1700 or 1800. I’ve been doing okay keeping to around 1650, give or take a few calories. I’m just happy to be back [...]
Whoo HOOO! 138.6
I weighed in again this AM. I was a bit nervous actually. I thought perhaps yesterday was a fluke and maybe I was back up. Funny my body “felt” thinner when I was heavier at 141.8 and this morning, I “felt” heavier. But yay, the scale showed 138.6. I’m definitely feeling back to normal. I [...]
Getting Back On Track! 140!
Yes! I think I’m getting back on track. I weighed in this morning at 140! Yay! I still have a little tiny bit more to go, but I’m happy. I feel “lighter” physically and emotionally! I was a little discouraged, but determined yesterday! After I made my public confession both on MyFitnessPal and here on [...]
Confessions of a Compulsive Eater – 141.8
Okay, confession time. This summer was brutal. While on our vacations, I ate a lot lot lot of sugary foods, & it seems like it made my “compulsive” eating issues come alive a little bit. It was getting harder and harder to say “no” to foods that I shouldn’t be eating. This weekend, I didn’t [...]
No, NO NOO. I Am NOT Gaining!
So, I’ve been weighing myself regularly (once or twice weekly +) and this AM I was shocked to see 141.6 on the scale! I haven’t been that much over 140 since April! I was 139.6 last week. I admit a couple of days, I went over by 100-200 calories, but there were days I was [...]
Old Jeans from the 1980′s
Well, since I’m on a nice “high” from my size 8 jeans purchase at LL Bean, I decided to dig out an old pair of high-wasted acid washed jeans from the 80′s. I held them up, and thought no way. They won’t fit, but guess what, they did! Whoo hoo! I couldn’t believe it. I [...]
My 2 Year Anniversary!
Darn! I missed my 2 year anniversary! It was on Wednesday the 20th, I thought it was the 23rd! Oh well. What’s important is I made it though another year. 2 years ago, a friend posted an inspirational quote on her Facebook profile and it profoundly altered my life forever. God grant me the serenity [...]
