Good Monday Morning FatChick Readers! How was your weekend? Mine was wet, but that didn’t matter because look at my new kicks! Aw yeah. They are awesome. I was hoping to break them in at the Big Dam(n) Bridge this weekend, but it was just too rainy. The water from the sky forced me to […]
The people in the picture are lying to you. There’s no smiling in bootcamp! There’s sweating, moaning, groaning, WTFing and possibly some bleeding…but definitely no smiling. So, I survived. It is gonna be hard, but I’m determined to complete the 9 sessions. These are last night’s lessons learned: Nobody is pretty at bootcamp. Except for […]
Depression can be very, very sneaky. It can grab a hold of you when you least expect it…and then what do you do? Well, if you’re me, you try to eat, drink, and sleep it off. And then you wake up fat and dumpy slightly more curvy than expected. (And winter is coming (hur hur)…I […]
It was hotter than balls yesterday. Honestly, walking the Big Dam(n) Bridge @2:00 in the afternoon was like walking through the flames of hell with the Heat Miser on my back. Not. Fun. So I only walked 2 miles…which is better than I’ve done in a while, but not good enough. I also did some light […]
I’m starting over. I’ve gotten lazy and soft and now I have a book signing for my 2nd book (LOVE SUCKS! HarperTeen) coming up in 6 weeks and my arms look like hams and my chin is starting to double up. All because I stopped paying attention. Sure, I have great excuses. I spent time […]

It seems like nowadays everyone and their mom is on the internet. With the possible exception of my mom who is on the internet but only visits three sites regularly (not including this one) and still uses AOL email. Every time I nag her about moving to gmail like the cool kids she reminds me that she […]
Fat isn’t just a state of body, it’s also a state of mind. And it’s a scary state of mind because once you start thinking of yourself as fat, it’s VERY hard to stop thinking of yourself that way. I can’t remember a time when I didn’t think I was fat. Even when I was […]

I’m still here. I’m still losing. I’m down almost 35 lbs and depending on whether I’m wearing a skirt or jeans, 2-3 sizes. It’s amazing the difference in my body. I don’t feel that different, but when I look at myself in my pretty underwear (because I can now wear pretty underwear) I think I’m […]
Today’s Box Score (so far) 1 hour rollerblading (kicked my butt) 1 hour on stationary bike (meh) Plans include: 1 more hour on stationary bike before bed 100 situps on ab ball Observation: Stationary bikes are the workout equivalent of celery. I don’t actually think it does anything but it’s more productive then just sitting […]
