Take 2. Action!

Ugh.

Climbing back on the DIET (that's DIE with a T) band wagon tomorrow.

Why do I feel like my best friend just died?

Ugh.

Guess I'd better pull this out of the cupboard again...


So I can make batches and batches of this:


It looks yummy enough though, doesn't it?

Why, then, do I feel so depressed? Does food really mean that much to me? Would I rather eat junk food and have a fat butt and greasy skin or would I rather eat healthily, lose 15 or so pounds and have clear skin?

Oh, my cyber friends, you know me too well...

"Bring on the fries and gravy," I say, "Let the rabbits and cows eat all the green stuff...and then...let's eat the cows!"

That's the difference between BEING a vegetarian and EATING a vegetarian!

But alas, tomorrow I embark on diet 959, 000 where I will endeavor to lose the same 20 lbs that have plagued me since my early days.  (Okay, maybe in the early days it was only 10 but now it's closer to 25!)

I wonder what I'd ever do if I actually got as thin as I would like to be?

Don't think I'll ever find out....

But, apparently, I'm going to try...

(for a couple of days..)

(maybe....)

UGH!

Hi Lisa, just found your blog today and I've been struggling with the same too. Diet. Seem to like carbohydrates too much. Brought up in South India where Rice is the main diet/dish. How am I supposed to give that up? My system recognizes only rice as food and the healthy food as junk. I'm doing a lot of takes' myself here.

I live for carbs! When I go without I feel seriously deprived. Rice is a staple in my diet...and cheesies, and chocolate bars, and bread....the list goes on....

...and that, my friends, concludes this blog. I think yesterday's post is an appropriate way to end it. I really don't have the time to keep a blog anymore.  My posts aren't as entertaining as they used to be (sometimes I bore myself) and right now it just seems more like a chore than a creative outlet. I will keep the blog active for awhile until I can find the time to slurp all the posts into a book but I don't think I'll be adding anything new. Thanks for reading.  Thanks for all the support over the years.  Thanks for listening to the Crazee Chick rant... See you later.... Lisa

24 Hour Relay Report--Facebook Style

Status: Walked almost 30 km this weekend. Walked from 11pm until 3 am--did 20 km--stumbled, weaved, bobbed, and limped through that last 2 kms and now have empirical knowledge of what it feels like to be asleep on your feet.   Feet hurt. Legs hurt. Hips hurt. 75 year old man passed us during our 4th hour. He was on his 16th hour and managed to run 165 km in a 24 hour period. Inspiring! Humbled by elderly, fit man, called the Lone Wolf. What courage. Reached my fund raising goal.  Thank you to all who donated.  Your contributions helped to raise over $1,000,000.00 and send 852 kids to summer camp this year.  Thank you.  Visited Starbucks 3 times in effort to warm up. Weather was not on our side. Cold and rainy! Ick!  Slept in a tent trailer for the first time in my life! It was so cool. It was also especially wonderful to be out of the rain and not sleeping on the ground. Met a bunch of crazy people.  Got to hang out wif...

Scents and Scents-ability

Before I became a Mommy I was a working girl. And when I was a working girl, I was a GOOD smelling working girl. I had my favorites--Tresor, Poison, Giorgio, Ysatis, Tuscany per Donna, Eternity by Calvin Klein, Perry Ellis and Alfred Sung. I had so many perfumes--and I loved them all! Then I became a Mommy and I did away with all my perfumed-ness. Why? I guess I didn't want my baby to have to breathe all that while s/he was trying to nurse. Perfumed flavored milk? Yucky! And...I never went out so why did I need to smell pretty? Wasn't smelling like breast milk, puke and baby poop enough of a sensory overload? Now I'm two things: Mommy and Working Girl. But I'm not a breastfeeding Mommy so you know what that means... BRING ON THE PERFUME!! The other day I went to the store and I was bowled over by the choices! Givenchy has a million scents now, JLo has like three kinds, and then there's that Ed Hardy guy with the fabulous name-- Christian Audidgi...
