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 [...]

Humbled By a Spider
This morning, after a marathon weeding and grass-clipping along the fence near our vegetable garden, I snipped off two branches of grape leaves, so I could perhaps try a new recipe. I left them for a few minutes inside in the workroom, and when I came back later to get them, I picked them up, [...]
Project Food Budget / My Healthy Budget: February Month 4 / Week 3
Project: Food Budget Weekly total: $132.55 My healthy budget goal is to eat seasonal, home-cooked meals while sticking to a $400 monthly budget for all food including groceries, dining out, entertaining, vitamins/supplements, and spices/herbs.

October Unprocessed 2011 – UPDATE Day #8
Day #8 for the October Unprocessed 2011 challenge over at the Eating Rules blog. It’s been going very well, maybe a tiny flub or two at the beginning, but for the most part, I’m going strong! I was already a fairly “clean” eater but participating in this challenge has forced me to look even deeper [...]
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 [...]
Dastardly Donut
Ugh, the dastardly donut got me today at lunch. I was visiting DH and we ate lunch together in his work lunchroom, and there was a box of Dunkin Donuts that another co-worker brought in that morning. Of course, DH had to open it, and there were just a few left, all jelly filled. I [...]
Food Network Rewards Obese Duff Goldman with New Sugar High Show
I just watched a promo for the new Food Network show “Sugar High” starring Duff Goldman, the guy from “Ace of Cakes” (a show I don’t think I’ve watched once) Anyway, the promo commercial made me sick! They showed him gorging on cakes, pastries, cookies, and puddings. Every scene was him shoveling huge desserts into [...]
