Thanksgiving has come and gone. I did not host the feast, so the only leftovers I had were from the veggie tray I took — nothing damaging! As a result of some good food choices, I didn’t gain any weight over the holiday!
Unfortunately, I didn’t exercise much either. I REALLY have [...]

I know how important sleep is to weight loss…. I am going to pay BIG TIME on the scale in the morning because I have just spent the last five hours playing Farkle when I should have been sleeping!!!!! Aaagggghhh! I vow never to visit Vegas. Maybe my dice-rolling is as crazy [...]

Weight loss can sometimes be a difficult journey. I can only think of one thing that makes weight loss easy — illness! No one likes being sick, even when a handful of pounds are lost along with our lunches. (sorry for the mental image)

It’s been a few days since my last post, and I miss it! I’m actually in a bit of a rut again. I think my monthly visitor is in the neighborhood though, and I’m probably retaining water. The nice streak of successive days of weight change is over, but at least I [...]
During the last half of October, I spent nearly two whole weeks without losing any weight. In the last six days, I have lost six pounds! I think it must have been the incorporation of the treadmill to my daily (or sometimes every other day) routine. How’s that for breaking out of [...]
We don’t have a Wendy’s near us, but when we have an opportunity to dine in a city that has one, we like to support them above other fast food places. First of all, their food is great. Second, dh’s first ever job in high school was at a Wendy’s restaurant. Third, [...]
