As the title of this post implies, I have started a new chapter in the book of my life. In the past month, I’ve undergone a number of changes – some awesome, others not so great. I’...
I know, I know. I did it again…only this time I went missing for nearly a month and a half. Inexcusable? Yes! Selfish? You bet! Forgivable? I sure hope so! If my unexplained absence caused anyo...
Yep, it’s a little over a month since my last weigh-in. It’s nice to know my Weight Loss Department can still get the job done, even though they slacked off during the summer. They’...
Last night, my friend, Karin, and I found ourselves in a pretty unlikely place: our high school parking lot. (Earlier in the evening, we dropped her teenagers off to watch the football players game.)...
This probably won’t become a weekly deal or anything. There just happen to be three things I want to talk to you about and it’s Tuesday, so. (Yeah. I have a keen grasp of the obvious.) 1....
This isn’t a typical post for me. But I cannot imagine not marking the anniversary and remembering those who lost their lives ten years ago today. For the past few days, Patch Media – the...
I owe you guys a weigh-in post and it’s coming, I promise. But probably not until next week (the end of next week). Still, although I’m putting the scale on the back burner, I don’t...
About a week ago – right before Irene hit – I had a little time off so I decided to travel to Britain. But the only body of water I had to cross was the East River. That’s right! I&...
*If your name is Irene, this isn’t true! (And I’m sorry!) Thank you for the well wishes and messages of hope. Since the first blush of summer, I haven’t been the best about keeping ...
In my August 20th post, I told you guys about my plans to “sacrifice” pounds of flesh at this year’s Long Beach Zombie Walk & Pub Crawl. Well, I didn’t earn my 4th English...
I’m back! And in way less than a month so that’s progress, right? Plus I managed to make another 1.5 pounds disappear, bringing my total weight loss to 38 pounds! Only two measly pounds s...
I am not going to the dwell on the fact that I flaked off (again!) for the past month. Instead, I’m just going to jump into the swing of things and hope you guys didn’t notice. Like someo...
Oh, who am I kidding? Tuesday can be Monday, sure. Like every time there’s a three-day weekend. It’s never a Friday, though. Not ever. But, hey. At least I’m weighing in on a weekda...
Turn your attention away from her for a second and whoosh! June sneaks off to flirt with punters in the alcove and get out of serving when its six deep at the bar. And then you don’t see her fo...
I know. I am a week late with my weigh-in status – sorry, guys. The past couple of weeks have been cram-jammed with fun pre-wedding (not mine!) stuff, and I have been otherwise engaged (not eng...
Lex! Congratulations, lady! Your Solar Queen has been ordered and will be mailed to you next week. (Please check your e-mail and reply to my message with your preferred mailing address.) "We are...
I am a bit late with a Photo Diary pic, but here it is, below. It was snapped last night when I met a friend for dinner…and possible other-worldly encounters. You see, Chris (those are her plat...
Wow! Guess what, you guys? This week, I lost 2.5 pounds…and earned myself a date with a third Englishman because I’m now down: 30 pounds! Even though I knew it was possible, I really thou...
Once upon a last Saturday, two wicked(ly awesome) witches women and a lovely, young bride-to-be and met up for an afternoon of fitting and wits, and giggles and shits. They skipped companionably down...
This week, I’m super-pleased to announce I can add 2 more pounds to the what’s-been-shed pile, freeing me of a total of: 27.5 pounds! (Cartwheels from one end of her apartment to the o...
Maybe it’s the good feeling I have about tomorrow’s weigh-in. Or perhaps I’ve finally caught a bit of spring fever. Then again, it just might be the promise of a third Englishman lurking ’round the b...
If music were food (or drink!), I think “No Matter What” – performed by Boyzone – would be hot chocolate with a big dollop of whipped cream. It’s smooth and sweet, rich and warm…and it makes you hug ...
Things are once again moving in the proper direction! Saturday’s weigh-in revealed a loss of 2.5 pounds, so I’m down a total of: 25.5 pounds! I’m glad about it, for sure. But the past few weeke...
Thanks to everyone who played along. You girls came up with some really clever captions for that unfortunate pic of William and Kate! In fact, they were all so good, I decided to give everyone an eve...
Apart from having a weekend with little to no down time, I wonder if you can guess why I’m late with my weekly weigh-in post. To make it interesting easy, I’ll present you with a few options: I lost ...
Tomorrow morning at approximately ten o’clock London time (or five o’clock New York time), a handsome Englishman and his lovely lady will take the plunge, declaring their love for one another before ...
Eighty-seven years ago, I worked with this guy, Tim, who regularly bemoaned my lifestyle choices. “I’m worried they’re going to find you in Central Park one day, with your panties wrapped around your...
Okay. This should be Weigh-in #11. But I am in warm-yet-rainy Maryland for the weekend and unable to get to The Scale. Which is probably a good thing, when I reflect on last weekend’s food orgy...
I have been so bad about publishing updates on time – I suck! (I gave myself a stern talking to, but it probably won’t help. I’m very contrary!) Poor posting habits aside, I shed more pounds la...
