I find myself having a huge craving for real mayonnaise today. Yes, mayonnaise! I love mayo! I’ll eat it on crackers. I love extra mayo on burgers and sandwiches. I love chicken salad that’s positively dripping with mayo. One of my favorite salads is Waldorf salad made with, you guessed it, MAYO.
Not just any [...]

Weekly Weigh-In 01/25/09
I allowed myself to be a little more lax this week—even had fast-food yesterday (though I couldn’t eat all of it). And I was still down 2.4 pounds this week for a WW total of 34.6 pounds and an overall weight loss of 54.6 pounds.
In the WW meeting today, we talked about goal-setting, which [...]

Recovered Dreams
So, this afternoon, I’m cleaning off the shelves in my office closet, which means going through a stack of spiral notebooks and figuring out which ones I need to keep and which ones I can get rid of. In this process, I ran across a steno-pad I’d forgotten about completely, in which I’d started a [...]

Weekly Weigh-In 01/18/09
I lost another 4.6 pounds this week, for a WW total of 32.2 pounds and a grand total of 52.2 pounds! A few more pounds and I’ll be at the lowest weight I’ve experienced in recent memory (since before I moved to Nashville in 1996 for certain). This means I not only hit my [...]

Graffiti
Look at who hasn’t been posting daily. But it does get pretty boring to post here every day that I had soup for lunch and a protein and veggie for dinner. Since I’m pretty much broke and am just eating what I have here at the house this week, there hasn’t been much point in [...]

Milestone Goals for 2009
As promised, here I am with the milestone events that I have to look forward to and where I want to be weight/size-wise when these events roll around.
I forgot to mention yesterday that I am officially down two pants sizes! I picked up a pair of jeans in a size 24W, which I haven’t been [...]

No, I haven’t given up!
I promised several people that I’d start back to my daily food journals and weekly weigh-in posts after the beginning of the year, and I definitely intend to. It’s just been a kind of weird week for me time-wise.
But even though the timing of my activities has been weird this week, it’s been a good [...]
