Monday

Monday, June 29th 2009

Today is Monday. A beautiful, breezy, sunny day. A wonderful day to be alive. I have my health, my family, a job with stability, and the love of my life loves me back, just as passionately as I love him.

I've defeated a battle with weight control, a fight that many are unable to conquer. I have a strong, healthy body. I'm not groutesqly ugly and I have all my own teeth.

I’ve crawled from the gutter and provided a stable, loving home to raise three strong, independent and intellig...

Guilt

Saturday, June 27th 2009

I'm feeling guilty. All that bad mouthing my job? All that slacking for 2+ weeks? Welllll....

My manager calls me into his Condo (that's slang for a fancy cube for big shots) and tells me he really appreciates the hard work, dedication and efficiency I put into my job. He's selected me for a monetary award for achievement in the workplace.

Guilt. It's a beautiful thing isn't it? When used correctly, you can achieve amazing results with guilt. I do believe I did a whole month...

Round Two, or three or four...I forget which

Tuesday, June 23rd 2009

Does the quest for self-improvement ever end? Do we not continually strive for more? A better job, more money, a bigger house, a better vacation? Do we not want more for our children then we had as a child? Better education, better communication and social skills? Do we not continually strive for that last few pounds, a better hairstyle, a better marriage, more knowledge?

I've thrown the idea out to the CK world a few times. I hate my job. I've made no secret of it; yes, I'm gratef...

Fat chick freak-out

Monday, June 22nd 2009

I’ll always be the fat chick. No matter how much weight I lose, how many different ways I style my hair, no matter what skinny clothes I wear or how much skin care, exercise or diet contraptions I invest in. Plastic surgery can nip and tuck away the excess skin, the stretch marks are carefully hidden or camouflaged; but no matter what I do…I’ll always be the fat chick.

The scars remain, not only upon flesh, but upon my memory and the memories of those who knew me when. ”Wow! You�...

Body Bugg

Sunday, June 21st 2009

I've caught a BUG! My biggest struggle has been with adding back in my exercise calories. It seems every time I added back the calories, I gained weight. If I didn't add them in I starved and then binged. So I tried manipulating the system by adding half, adding when hungry, dividing throughout the week, you name and I tried it. Lose, lose, lose, gain it all back. Now, hopefully, problem solved!

My darling, wonderful, husband gave me a Body Bugg for my birthday! (You should have...
