Not from square one, but I’m no longer on vacation so I’m not eating much (if any) bread, not having two cocktails with dinner, feeling hungry all the time. I’m working at mitigating the damage of gaining a pound…drinking tea instead of cocktails, more water, more salad, just normal stuff. All that said, I had…

Well…I had the best weekend! Mr. G and I left the cold north to go to the islands to visit his daughter. While we were there, we went boating with other friends of hers and had dinner at a nice place on another island. It’s hard to believe but yesterday I was scuba diving for…

I’m thinking this is not new for anyone, but I have to say it. BMI is BS. I am 5’7″ and 221 pounds. My BMI is 34.7, so I’m considered obese. I wear a size 14 on bottom, 16 on top. I’m pretty sure the average size for women in America is 14. I work…

our weight! As of this morning, I weigh 225. I’m so happy that it’s continuing to go down. This weekend we went to a wedding celebration. It was really fun! I had on a dress that I felt looked good, I did my hair, thought it looked good too. When I saw the lone picture…

I know, I know, he’s not exactly the most popular figure in sports these days, but I’m close to him in another way: I am just a couple pounds away from weighing what he weighs (he weighs 225, I’m at 226.8)! I’ll take it. 🙂 This weekend we are headed to a wedding celebration…I’m going…
