I would like to send out a big shout to the makers of Dreyer’s ice cream. Last night I ran into the local 7-11 after my workout desperate for water and mistakenly passed the freezer section. This little gem <—————————————– called to me like a dockside hooker beckons sailors. Like so many sea-faring men before […]
I think I broke through my plateau this week! I lost the 1.5 lbs I wanted to! I’m so stoked. Was it changing up my routine? Was it the extra Green Tea? Was it the flaxseed? A combo of all of the above? Who knows…I’m just stoked that I finally broke free. I think it […]
Okay this isn’t usually a place for debate but I do have a question. Is anyone else wondering what is wrong with Michael Phelps? No, not the part where he smoked a bong and got caught (idiot). No, I’m talking about the part where the same guy whose girlfriend’s nudie pics were located and posted to the internet hours after their relationship […]

My dog died a little less then two years ago. He was 17 years old and it was definitely his time but it was tough. It’s still kind of tough. To this day whenever I see a trash can on the floor in the house I think “oh better put that away so the dog doesn’t get it.” […]
Funny how CK is trying to blame me for her CA Marathon Medal obsession. All I did was call her and kevetch about being a lazy ass while all these people were running around me and decided right then I should train for a marathon. CK is the one who jumped all in and decided […]
I did 45 mins on the elliptical today–half of that time a pretty steep incline. I thought I was sweating the other day? No. Today I thought I would wash away. No lady should have have sweat dripping down her butt crack. Just sayin. And what is with these sweaty palms of mine? Seriously, I […]
I’m bad about rewarding myself. And when I do finally reward myself, it’s usually with food or drink. Which, of course, is a very bad idea if the reward is for weight loss. Rewards work, but for me, I think they work better coming from other people. If I know that I’m working to get […]
Seriously, I’m in major carb-craving mode. Chips, cookies, rice, bread, cereal–you name it, if it’s mainly a carbohydrate, it is not safe around me at this time. yes, I’m getting close to that time of the month again. Why does this happen? It’s totally unfair. We gain weight, get moody, eat everything within reach, have […]
I’ve been a size 18 for several years. About 5 years ago, I was actually a 20 (pushing 22, but we won’t talk about that) and I joined WW and the gym and lost quite a bit of weight. I’m a fairly muscular hourglass figure and I actually have to gain/lose quite a bit of […]
Here are things I’m saying no to during my training. Booze (okay, I’m MOSTLY saying no to booze. I am allowing myself to have a Bourbon and Coke Zero on occasion. Or if I really want a beer, I’ll have Michelob Ultra because it only has 95 calories and 2.5 carbs.) Fanny packs–I mean really, […]
