I think I’ve discovered one of my “trigger” foods: Cheez-Its.
I bought a box of those 100-calorie pack Cheez-Its Friday because they looked good and I was craving something savory. I ate one — just one — last night, and another today. But I noticed that after eating them, I was kind of wanting something else […]

The big bummer tonight is that we lost our game … by a score of 15-8, we think. (No one was working the scoreboard, and I lost count at 15-6.) This team was REALLY good, though. We decided most of the guys probably played ball in high school or college.
The good news is, that with […]

I didn’t realize I’ve skipped out on posting THREE times this week. Jeez.
I’ve been having a bit of trouble on the food front, but exercise has been stellar this week. I even went to the gym on my lunch hour Thursday because I didn’t manage to make it before work. Don’t think I’ve ever done […]

I tried something new today: Eating something “bad” for me without any guilt.
It started out after a trip to the dentist for a cleaning. I was on that side of town … the side I don’t get to all that often … the one with the Long John Silver’s. Since it had been months since […]

Lucky for me, it’s not something I care to find!
… The scale said I was down 0.8. It’s not as much as I’d have liked to lose, but it IS something, so I’ll take it. After Saturday’s Dilly Bar and Cheese Fries debacle, it’s nothing to sneeze at!
I’m having a much better day […]

The last couple of days have been up and down. Down as in, I ate way too many Cheez-its and cookies Thursday because I was stuck in a boring meeting with nothing to do but nod off or munch. Up as in I stuck to plan Friday, then down as in I tossed the plan […]

Monday has been a good day. It was one of those days when everything went right, for a change! Here are the highlights:
Despite last week’s late-night munchie addiction, I managed to post a loss at Monday’s weigh-in. (Down 2 pounds, for a total of 26.6 pound since I joined WW at the end of August […]

Yep. It’s only 11 p.m., and the paper has been put to bed. That means I can go home a full hour early!
Now the challenge will be to head home, not somewhere to get a bad-for-me snack! I’m thinking a low-carb quesadilla with soy cheese and salsa sounds like a much better snack than a […]

I’ve realized I’ve been making mostly unhappy posts lately. Yes, I’ve been having a heck of a week. Yes, I haven’t been eating well or moving as much as I should. But there have been some good moments mixed in with the bad.
First off, I just got my federal tax refund … so I’ve been […]

I know what I need to do in order to lose weight. (I should, after so many years of having it drilled into my head.) Make the right food choices and move more.
Distilled to that pure form, nothing could be simpler. So why is it so darn difficult to follow through?
I know I need to […]
