Progress Photos and the Days In Between
Lyn, who writes the well-known blog Escape from Obesity, shared the following thought on Twitter a while back: Being fat is hard. Losing weight is hard. Maintaining is hard. Choose your hard. When I read that, I thought: This here is a not-so-pretty slice of truth. I still come back to that nugget of wisdom [...]
Hello, 150s
9. March 2010
Today I made my sneaky entry into the 150s, weighing in at 159 lbs (a loss of 1.5 lbs since last week). I’m beyond pleased, you guys. I am Totally Stoked! I am also down 44 lbs total now. The big 5-0 is on the horizon. WOW. Just, wow. I’m so amazed and befuddled and [...]
The Cost of Weight Loss
8. March 2010
Remember this shirt? Well, it’s getting loose on me. When I first bought it, the blouse was nicely fitted (see pic!), but it is starting to hang on me just a bit. It’s a nice problem to have. . . . I just wish I had the funds to immediately replace it and the rest [...]
Lemon Chicken and Kale With Pecans
7. March 2010
Last night we created a fantastic home-made dinner sourced from two fairly simple recipes: lemon-marinated chicken and kale with pecans. The two dishes’ flavors paired together unexpectedly well, and both were recipes that even a novice in the kitchen like myself could put together. Win! I was so excited about eating the dinner that I [...]
How Do You Find the Right Plan?
5. March 2010

The problem is that inside this would-be follower is a very stubborn, itchy, restless brain that finds holes in almost everything, and something to [...]
How I Lost 15 Lbs Without Even Trying
4. March 2010
This is a guest post written by my awesome boyfriend of three years, M! He was willing to write a special post today for Tiny Glow about his experiences so far during my lifestyle makeover. Enjoy! So, I got on the scale the other day. The last time I did so, I weighed a little [...]
Not Another Fat Summer
3. March 2010
Last March, I signed up for a boot-camp-style fitness contest that I was sure was going to be my ticket to svelte. Spring was singing in Austin and I could hear the overture of summer in that little tune. Summer has been my nemesis ever since moving to Austin. It begins in May and lasts [...]
Continued Weight Loss and My Salad Conversion
2. March 2010
The Weigh-in Weighing in at 160.5 lbs (a loss of 1.5 lbs) this morning, I was more than happy with my progress. I continue to steadily chip away at my extra weight, and next week I am hoping to break into the 150s! The losses each week aren’t necessarily stunningly mind-blowing, but they keep adding [...]
