Reporting in - my scale is still in a box somewhere, one of the 3 or 4 left that say "Bathroom." We're losing some bathroom space in this move, which is why one reason everything is not unpacked yet. Also because there are a million boxes. Ok, not a million - but honestly 100. I … Continue reading FFF – 4-13

My scale is packed - i don't know if i lost, gained, or stayed the same. Stay tuned til next week for any big announcements on that! I'm only part way through the week with my Fitbit so i'm going to be reporting the step count from last week each time i check in. The … Continue reading FFF – 4-6

i was getting ready to do one of those "oh, i'm a terrible person, i haven't lost any more weight and i'm not doing the things i said i'd do and...' And then you all would have (probably) said kind things and i would have felt cheered up but still felt like a failure. A … Continue reading FFF – 3-23-18 (on Saturday)

5 pounds. I've lost 5 pounds since the week of February 10th. I just looked back at my planner, and there it was. I weighed 5 pounds more that week. Wooohooo!! If I lost a pound a week for the next - oh, let's say the next 26 weeks - I would be at a … Continue reading FFF – 3-16-18

Well, here we go. Still eating well. Yes! Still not meeting my movement goals. Might have lost a pound. At least, it looks like I've lost about 3 1/2 all together. Haven't sorted anything - in fact, I am less organized than ever. 😦 So it occurs to me that my goals are strictly aspirational … Continue reading FFF- 3-9-18

It's check in time - and I don't really have anything good to report. I didn't lose weight, although I don't know how that's possible when I'm still eating radically differently and significantly less, but there it is. Exercise was down, probably because I was traveling most of the week and it's hard to exercise … Continue reading FFF – 3-2-18

Older and wiser, that's me. Um, older anyway. And lighter!! Like 2-3 pounds lighter! How cool is that? Did I tell you that the medication they gave me made it 100 times easier to not binge on carbs and sweets? Yeah. And somehow, it's easier to exercise, probably because I'm not still carrying around the … Continue reading FFF 3 – 2-23
FFF 2-16: It’s Official…
i am officially diabetic. Or, as I pointed out to the somewhat officious nurse practitioner who broke the news to me, i am "a person with diabetes." That is the more person-centered language that's preferred in health care these days. This was after I heard her tell someone down the hall that she had "a … Continue reading FFF 2-16: It’s Official…

I was reading Vesta's submission - she was talking about her husband. "What I have noticed is that as my husband became immersed in the body form, in his own body form, a sense of space quietly began to be lost, like air being sucked out of a blow up swimming pool that has developed a … Continue reading FFF – 2-9
