Angles
At different angles, my face can look totally different—something I learned while I was at my heaviest and attempting to take self-portraits. At very specific angles, my face didn’t look so fat. It was an optical illusion of sorts. Both of these pictures were taken today within minutes of each other: It’s all about angles. Someday I [...]

Saturday, January 16, 2010
Last night everything felt pointless, boring, and tedious. Life felt devoid of purpose. I wanted a giant cupcake really badly because my emotions felt so intense and throughout my life I guess I got really used to soothing myself in such a way. It felt horrible not going to my old go-to, you know? I [...]

Thursday, January 14, 2010
I put out the call for suggestions on how to add more protein to my diet, and you guys answered! Below is a list of the excellent protein suggestions offered to me in the comments of my earlier post on this topic: Eggs and egg whites (try them in a scramble or omelet with veggies) Try a [...]

Wednesday, January 13, 2010
Thanks to Josie for tagging me to play the Happy 101 game! The object of this exercise is to list 10 things (as opposed to people—so no listing family and friends) that make me happy, and since this is a weight-loss blog, I’m going to primarily foucs on things involved in that area of my life. [...]

Wednesday, January 13, 2010
The person speaking to me was the older man behind the register at the 7-11 where a friend and I were buying cheap alcohol for a party about five years ago. He looked at my driver’s license, looked at me, looked back down at my I.D. and said, “This isn’t you.” My friend looked merely baffled but [...]

Tuesday, January 12, 2010
Guess what? My strawberry charm necklace from Lucid New York arrived! This was my mini-reward for hitting the 30-lbs lost milestone a few weeks ago and I’m all enamored of it :). The photo is not very clear but the necklace is cute as hell and I love it.

Tuesday, January 12, 2010
Today I weighed in at 170 lbs. That means I’m down 2 lbs from last week and 33 lbs total, and the scale is back on the move! It also means I am only a little over a pound away from being overweight instead of obese, according to the BMI charts for my height (5′3). [...]

Tuesday, January 12, 2010
This month I decided I would finally test the waters a bit and try some low-commitment (read: free) strength training in small (read: 15 minutes or less) doses. My free membership at SparkPeople has been the perfect medium for this experiment—in fact, reader Quix suggested this idea to me ages ago! Here’s my current SparkPeople online [...]

Tuesday, January 5, 2010
So I’m back to my standard Tuesday morning weigh-in schedule after last week’s Thursday weigh-in due to holiday travels, and there has been no change in my weight. I have been following my plan for over three and a half months now, and this is my very first week of not losing any weight. It’s [...]
