Rushed Morning

Well, between me going to bed at 2 AM and Peter not having his keys at 4:30 AM and waking me up with the buzzer for 30 min to come and get him, it was a rough night!  Which led to a rushed morning, since we both slept in!  Out went the AM gym, out [...]

Columbia University Alumni Reunion, Day 1

Hey all! Peter is still out partying the night away, but I’m home to do a quick post and then off to bed. This afternoon did not go as I would have hoped, in that I got stuck dawdling around the house, and then had to power errands run. I managed to get in a [...]

Boyfriend Made Breakfast

Well, I woke up at 7 AM this morning feeling absolutely miserable: just nauseous and awful.  I woke up two hours later feeling better, but I decided to stay home from work and rest anyway.  If I get sick before the surgery, they’ll cancel it - so I have to be extra careful.  Peter had [...]

Mix It Up Sally

I think one of the biggest reasons why I’ve been successful with weight loss this time around, and not in any of my previous attempts, is my new-found ability to change up my strategies. I used to think that if a certain strategy worked in the past, that’s the only strategy that will ever work [...]

Calm Before the Storm

Hey all. Today is my last normal day before the craziness of this weekend starts. We have a bunch of different events to attend, so it’s going to be more action-packed than relaxing. I don’t know about you guys but I find such comfort in my daily routine. Especially since now [...]

Happy Day!

Hey all!  I’ve been getting tons of great news this morning, the most important of which is from my doctor’s office, who said that my surgery is this close to being approved by my insurance company.  YAY!!! I have been dreading and delaying this surgery for close to 10 yrs now - I’m finally willing [...]

Symmetrical Blueberry Muesli

Morning all!  I was totally wiped out last night.  You know those nights when you sleep so hard that you forget that you’re sleeping?  Usually I have some consciousness that I know when I’m sleeping (does this sound weird?), but today there’s just a huge gap in time from last night to this morning.  Anyway, [...]
