Here is a funny story: I was in the grocery store look at bagged candy. It’s my hubby’s b-day tomorrow, and I always sprinkle candy around the table for us to enjoy as we celebrate. I usually buy a big bag of kisses or mini peanut butter cups. As I …
It’s the holidays again – UGH! It’s so hard to resist all those tempting sweet treats. I didn’t do so well this year and am afraid to step on the scale. AND – my acne has really flared up. I have had mild acne my entire adult life (I am …
I had a routine mammogram today. The nurse came back after viewing my slides and aksed me if I’ve lost weight since my last one 18 months ago. I thought about it and said, yes, I probably did. 18 months ago was when I had a high stress job and …
I made this great recipe tonight called Asparagus Frittata. It’s made with egg beaters, and not much cheese, so it’s pretty low fat, high protein. It was delicious. I happened to have some asparagus leftover from last night. You could make it with brocolli instead, just whatever. Just thought I’d …
I was stressed out today and hungry after lunch, so I sat here at my computer and pigged out on Kashi Honey Sunshine cereal. That stuff tastes just like Cap’n Crunch, except it’s allegedly healthier. I dunno, is “organic evaporated cane juice” really any better than “high fructose corn syrup”? …

I started drinking diet ginger ale about a month ago. I just realized that I have been craving carbs alot – cookies, crackers, pretzels, tortilla chips. And I’ve been having a hard time resisting them. ACK – I feel so bloated and fat right now. I was below 140 in …
This was the first holiday season in my adult life that I did not gain weight. WOW! I would say that I have won the battle of the bulge, but I am afraid that I would jinx myself, so I won’t ever say that! I weighted 141.6 today. woot!
I occassionally indulge in diet ice cream bars. I like individually wrapped snacks because that way there is no question about the serving size and how many calories I am eating. Whereas if I buy a whole tub of ‘diet’ ice cream, it’s easy to fill up your bowl …
Another post holiday weigh in and it wasn’t too bad! Yay! I did do a fair amount of pigging out this Christmas. Not too bad, but enough to make me feel bloated and break out with bad zits. Meh. I have been afraid to weigh myself for 2 weeks. Before weighing …
