New Year’s Day Goal Met . . . a Week Early!
175 lbs! That’s what the scale read this morning, and this means I have hit my unofficial New Year’s Day goal a week ahead of schedule. I’ll certainly be on my guard to keep the scale from climbing in the wrong direction when M and I (and the Bean) fly up north on Thursday morning to [...]

It just doesn’t feel right to let a weigh-in day pass without a post, so although I don’t have lots to say tonight, here I am. I have been pretty quiet here on Tiny Glow lately, and in the past that would have meant I had fallen off the wagon, or strayed from the path, [...]

Tuesday, December 8, 2009
Today I weighed in at 178 lbs, showing a loss of 1.5 lbs for the past week and an overall loss of 25 lbs! That’s right, I hit my next mini-milestone and reward! A spa-quality manicure, pedicure, and eyebrow-shaping appointment has been booked for the afternoon of December 22. I can’t wait to be pampered [...]

When I biked home yesterday, I was challenged. The uphill grade of the ride, the relatively cold weather (this is Texas, come on), the wind which always seemed to be in my face. My quads burned, the traffic irked, and I thought to myself, I don’t seem to be making much progress. I felt utterly [...]

Tuesday, December 1, 2009
Into the 170s . . . by a hair! This is starting to be a pattern, me inching sneakily into the next weight decade. I am thrilled to have lost 2 lbs over Thanksgiving week, and I also know that I can attribute some of my success to the fact that: 1. I did some [...]

Saturday, November 28, 2009
Behold, our Christmas card photos: Our incomes aren’t currently large enough to support buying gifts for all the family members we would like to acknowledge during the holidays, so last year, my boyfriend and I started the tradition of sending out a holiday card with a current photo in it to many of our relatives. Sometimes [...]

Sunday, November 22, 2009
Last year, Thanksgiving was the beginning of the end. I had followed Weight Watchers successfully for several weeks at that point, lost a bit of weight, and was hoping to keep that up throughout the holidays. But then Thanksgiving happened; or rather, I happened to Thanksgiving. Fast-forward a few months, and I was right back [...]

Today I biked to work—it’s something I try to do twice a week as part of my fitness routine. It was strange with all the daylight brightening up the world at 7 AM; I’d become used to pedaling to the office in the dark. I guess that will be the fate of my evening commute [...]

Saturday, October 31, 2009
I have dressed up as a girl who just got a haircut holding a dog! The Bean is a bit wiggly, but he didn’t get away! It’s been a good Halloween so far! I got up at around 8 AM, ate some breakfast, and headed out into the cool, sunny day for a brisk 30 minutes on the [...]
