Best-laid plans …
It seems there’s something wrong over at Blog to Lose, so I’m posting this here instead. Guess it’s nice to have a backup plan, eh? I’d planned to get up and work out so I could earn some extra APs for tonight’s book club meeting. Well, I must have been exhausted, because I didn’t get up [...]Fighting cancer one step at a time …
I’m doing the American Cancer Society’s Climb to Conquer Cancer this August, and, for the first time this year, am trying to raise some cash for this great cause. In the past, the Daily Sun has had a team but unless no one told me, we haven’t done any fund-raising. It’s more than just a great [...]Trying out new community …

Not looking forward to WI
It's been a not-great week, so I won't be surprised if I regain some of the 2.4 pounds I lost last week. I'll hope for a pleasant surprise, but really Sunday and Thursday were the only days I was truly OP. I had the munchies Friday night, and Saturday went to a movie with the boyfriend (after we got me my tires. $243 for 3 tires. It's highway robbery, I tell you!) Popcorn, a pretzel and a few Milk Duds were consumed ... and I don't even like Milk Duds. Why did I eat them? I don't know. I guess… Continue

Jewelry or tires?
This is the question I find myself facing tonight. The Boyfriend said he'd get me a present for my birthday, and I'm leaning toward a nice bracelet or necklace ... but I really NEED new tires. (Apparently the right rear one is in really bad shape.) So instead of getting jewelry for my birthday, I'm getting stinkin' tires. :P But I guess if I need them, I'd better get them. I'd hate to have a blowout on the road somewhere. Today was a mixed bag. I took a walk, did some crunches and had a health… Continue

You know that saying about good intentions, right?
The road to hell is paved with them ... Well, I had the best of intentions. I took the computer to the Boyfriend's Monday intending to blog — or at least keep up with everyone else's. But I was off work Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, and didn't turn the darn thing on once while I was running around. Eric and I went to Phoenix Tuesday (for my birthday) and again on Wednesday (for his tennis league). I also intended to stay OP ... but didn't. I don't think I went as hog-wild as I have in the pas… Continue

Time to party!
Finally ... I DID IT! I got that 50-pound charm! Woo-hoo! Actually, I went beyond losing 0.8 to lose 2.4 for the week, which puts my total loss at 51.6. Can I do the happy dance now? I wasn't worried last night, but this morning, I started thinking: It's almost TOM. What if I don't lose because of the water weight? But I needn't have worried, obviously. This feels great! Why can't every week be an "I've reached a milestone" week? Now I have to decide if I really do want to get a tattoo. I sa… Continue
