Continue reading →: Day 7: StickK With It
Confirming my suspicions, I weighed in at 163.4 today. WTF, me? Anyway, this is what it looks like when you sign a StickK contract and fail: Contrary to what you see above, my $20 will not be going to charity. It will be going to an anti-charity that fights against…

I did not do well today, and I’m expecting tomorrow to not go so well, either (at least the weigh in part). I also spent $200 at Whole Foods buying crap to make four (4!) recipes from Thrive, so I’m a little pissed about that. Not to mention that I…

No use in denying it. I weigh 162 lbs today. Two pounds up from yesterday. Oh well, these things happen. Weight fluctuates. It’s one of the reasons experts say to only weigh in once a week; it’s easy to feel guilty and derail as you go up and down the…

Weighed in at 160.0 lbs this morning, so officially back on track. Also, something I’m very proud of: I went to Bikram again this morning. That alone shouldn’t be that big of a deal, except that I woke up at 9:35, and class was at 10am. Instead of doing my…

It rained all day. I watched way too many episodes of Mad Men. But overall, I was a pretty good girl. Well, there was a big piece of lemon cake with a lemon pudding center. And a sugar-free gas station cappuccino (one of my biggest weaknesses). And some corn nuts.…

In November of 2004, after a particularly difficult year, I travelled to Europe for the 2nd time. In July of 2005, after a particularly wonderful six months (and by happenstance, directly before the start of the hardest period of my life thus far), I travelled once again to Europe. The…

Is an untold truth really a lie? Right now I’m holding two very big truths pretty close to my chest. So close that you will not be finding out about them, dear readers. They’re potential life-changers. They’re exciting. They’re terrifying. And they both fit together pretty nicely. It’s inconvenient to…

So I finished up last night by 1) eating a sensible dinner of caesar salad & veggie chicken strips, and 2) drinking a ton of Guinness to even out my sensibility. Hmmm. Here’s what my LoseIt record for yesterday looked like: Either way, if you’re a lazy lady like myself,…

Continue reading →: Day 1 – Oops
Last night I ate half a bag of tortilla chips, 3/4 of a jar of salsa, 1/2 of a jar of chipotle onion dip, 2 pieces of pizza, 2 servings of (absolutely delicious) pistachio gelato, and 2 glasses of wine. No, I was not sick afterwards. Yes, I did this…

The title of this post is kind of funny, and kind of sad. You may or may not have been reading C&Q long enough to remember when I used to have another blog named Thirty by Thirty, where I talked about my goal of losing 30 lbs by my 30th…
