I think you're doing great. 1 or 2 lbs a month is good, really it is. Slow weight loss is the weight loss that lasts forever, you'll probably never gain back the weight you've already lost, which is better than what most dieters can say, right? So p…

Food scales are great! Once you start measuring things consistently, it gets easier to eyeball a cup of grapes, a serving of nuts, etc...but I check myself every now and again...especially on foods I like to overindulge in or "cheat" on.

Okay, so I'm feeling a little panicked lately. Sure, it's been Christmas, and sure I'm expected to make mistakes once in awhile, but I'm starting to be afraid that I'm not doing good enough. For the last two months I've been averaging two pounds los…

Thankfully my husband does not have a weight problem. I'm he's chubby but no where near being overweight or obese, and in fact he is my biggest cheerleader. I'm very lucky to have such a supportive husband who goes with the flow and eats just about anything, no matter how what!

Hi Laura! Thanks for the comment on my blog. No, I'm not a farmer but I did grow up on a farm. I'm now a city girl but offered to help my dad with his eight pony hitch for a few weeks. Good luck to you on your journey!

Doubts and Solutions

Okay, so I'm feeling a little panicked lately. Sure, it's been Christmas, and sure I'm expected to make mistakes once in awhile, but I'm starting to be afraid that I'm not doing good enough. For the last two months I've been averaging two pounds lost per month, and that's just not going to cut it. I'm teetering on a fence between being happy with results that I'm getting and just letting this whole thing fall by the wayside. I am not comfortable being on that fence. It's like when… Continue

Blizzard of ’09: Healthy-wise

This post can also be found at www.lauralovinglife.com

Yeah, so West Virginia and surrounding East Coast states experienced quite the blizzard this past weekend. It started here at around 3 o’clock on Friday, and caused total chaos for everyone trying to get home from work, get to work, get to the grocery store, travel through the area, etc. Craziness all around. My family and I typically love the snow, and we love huge snow dumps like these,… Continue

"Movin' right along...

...foot loose and fancy free!" This is a song that Bryan and I often find ourselves singing because it often applies to a current situation. It's nice to be thrown back to that sweet moment of Fonzi and Kermit in the car, driving to go get their friends, just on the road and going... even though they go completely in the wrong direction. "...I never knew the sun came up in the West??"

I've been very busy lately... trying to finish up everything for my 2 classes, going on our annual trip to Univ… Continue

Yucky food makes you feel yucky

(I have started posting my blog entries at my own website: http://www.lauralovinglife.com but will post them here as well, at least for now. Thanks!)

Since Monday morning, I guess you couldn't say that I've been on a Yucky Food Bender, but in light of my desire to be healthy, lose weight, and feel great, I have been bending. Since that post, I have had:
