18 lbs down: Welcome to Twoterville

This morning I’m down 18 lbs since I officially started clean eating and the blog. Today I finally entered “twoterville”. That is, my weight number finally starts with a two instead of a three. 299.0.

The new jeans were the right size in the thigh but too big in the waist. Regardless, I needed jeans with…

The magic pill

Last night I watched Dr. Who. It was an episode where an alien nanny decended on Earth and sold a magical pill that caused people to lose 1 pound a day of “unneeded” fat. It turns out that the fat was actually splitting off of the person and running back to the alien nanny. I would totally take that pill.…

Like a Peach

How sad is it that I’m 38 years old and have just realized what “they” meant when they said “bruise like a peach”? I mean, I get it.. bruises easily. In fact I’ve said that about myself.. but honestly I don’t think I’ve ever eaten a peach and noticed that it in fact bruised easily. Score one for Healthy Living.…
