Non-Scale Victory at the Store
Saturday, April 06, 2013 13 comments Since I have a new job, I indulged in a bit of shopping today. I decided to get some capri-length jeans and a top. I tried on the size I believed I needed, but they were too baggy. I had to take a smaller size! I haven't worn that size in oh... Read more

Musings
Wednesday, March 13, 2013 11 comments Today I was noticed a cache of old letters from my single days in the 1990s. I read a few of them and it was great to read little missives from my mom and friends from back then. The ones that wrote me letters then are still friends today. I ... Read more
End of Leisure Life
Monday, March 11, 2013 19 comments I mentioned in my status a few days ago that I thought I'd landed a job, and I have. I will be working in a private home tutoring and giving applied behavioral therapy to 1-2 autistic children. I have never truly taught autistic kids and have ... Read more
Sparking away
Thursday, March 07, 2013 9 comments I won't waste your time telling you of all the eating sins I have committed recently, but I am still sparking despite it all. I got a good workout in today. I'm thinking seriously about a Fitbit, but haven't made up my mind. I got the r... Read more
All the seasons in a week!
Monday, March 04, 2013 9 comments It wasn't that long ago that we were practically swimming for it here in South Georgia. Then last weekend we experienced our coldest weather of the year. And of course I had to spend the days hanging out on a windswept soccer pitch watching my... Read more
Ups and Downs
Wednesday, February 27, 2013 12 comments My weight went up in mid-February and I resolved to do better with my fitness and water drinking as well as do better with eating and tracking. Well, my weight was at 226 on weigh-in Tuesday, but down again to 224 today. I hope tomorrow it's s... Read more

No Excuses weightloss program from FlyLady's Jonathan Roche
Wednesday, February 13, 2013 8 comments I feel somewhat in weightloss doldrums. I did manage to dip down a pound on weigh-in, but I bet it's not permanently gone. I don't seem to be interested in my usual fitness routines nor in being careful in my eating. I am managing to drink my... Read more
Mind Games
Saturday, February 09, 2013 10 comments This weight loss thing is as much of a head trip as it is a physical activity. We have to use our minds too.
