So if you’ve been reading this blog for any length of time, at some point (or probably more than just one point) you’ve seen me laugh about/complain/despair/bitch about/at least mention my weight.

42 Days: Morning
Today’s Weight: 159.4 lbs. I’m not going to cheer until I’m at 158, which I thoroughly plan to attain by tomorrow. Today’s Plan: Work like the busy little bee I am. There’s so much to get done for my day job right now; PR call at 1, call with our web designer at 2, and…
