Three months ago I set out to lose about 80 pounds through exercise and a very low calorie diet, by December 1st.
How did I do?
I lost ten pounds in the first month and have kept that off. I don’t look much different, or even feel much different. But it is nice that jeans that [...]

Day 30
Thanks.
This. This was supposed to be easy. Oh, sure- I was going to be hungry. I was going to be jealous of the people eating cakes in the staff room, my family having lovely meals for dinner. But that was ok! I was going to be losing weight! Five pounds a week! And that [...]

After initially losing 10 pounds in the first week and a half of the diet I didn’t lose anymore weight. I was walking and working my arms and my legs and sticking to my diet. There have been days which I’ve gone over 500 calories, so I accept my body has probably not properly been [...]

Day 5

I’ve lost five pounds in my first week. I’m very pleased.
Between breakfast and lunch today I had less than 300 calories, and through exercise I burned over 300 calories today. So, I decided that meant I could have a normal dinner with the family. Which means no counting, no weighing, but only one serving and [...]

(Diet-Day)
Today is the first day of a twelve week long 500 calorie a day diet. I am hoping I will make it through the first week, at least- but after a long day on my feet yesterday, I woke up starving today and don’t have much faith in my ability to fill up on an [...]

stupid broken scale.

I step off the scale, and then back on. Depressingly, the numbers don’t change. How can I gain two pounds from one day to the other? Especially when I’m walking up that flaming great hill every morning? Dejected, I gather up my things and continue to my office.
I know better than to expect immediate results, [...]

She’s average.

There is a certain feeling of dread that fills me when I have to meet with a teacher. They will produce unfinished projects, half empty notebooks. They will tell me my child lacks social skills, they will insist on meetings and assessments, they will assure me how very far behind he is. I will feel, [...]
