Hello, 150s
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 proud [...]

Sunday, March 7, 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 didn’t [...]

Wednesday, March 3, 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 through [...]

Yesterday morning I headed out to my second open-to-the-community boot camp workout down under the bridge at Town Lake! Remember the first time I went to one of these, just a month ago? Attending that session convinced me to give the whole boot camp thing a go—and doing that has helped me to shed about [...]

Gold star for me—my attendance at boot camp this week was 100%! Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday evenings I was up there on the top level of that parking garage soaking the concrete with my sweat. The view of downtown is pretty fantastic from up there; not that I choose my fitness endeavors based on aesthetics [...]

Tuesday, February 16, 2010
This past week was the first one since I began this weight-loss effort in which I let life and my emotions truly derail me. The damage included two-thirds a of a Tubular Taco (really an unholy, mammoth burrito/enchilada beast) and two missed workouts (including one session of boot camp). I did lose half a pound [...]

Saturday, January 30, 2010
Today I came across some notes I jotted down during the first week of my weight-loss effort, and I wanted to share some thoughts I had on Day One (September 15, 2009) here: I really believe that I will do this. I have to do this. Being 80 lbs overweight might not put me squarely [...]

Looking back at yesterday’s post, I’m glad you guys didn’t write me off as a total drama queen. On the face of it, all that happened was that I gained a single pound. I’m glad you were able to look a little deeper than the surface and offer such kind and helpful comments, because as [...]

Sunday, January 24, 2010
I’m a satisfied customer! After striking out at Kohl’s, I found two new shirts and pairs of pants for work at The Limited and New York & Co., respectively. This shopping outing was both a mini-reward for hitting 35 lbs lost and, let’s face it, sorely needed. My previous go-to work outfits were drooping all [...]
