So most of you know I’m a huge Real Housewives fan. I watch ALL of them. The only one I don’t care too much for is the Washington DC one, but of course I still watch it. On last week’s episode of Real Housewives Beverly Hills, my favorite, Adrienne Maloof, wore this gorgeous halter dress [...]

If you don’t like it, then leave!
By the way, I can’t stand the people who go to my yoga studio. Think of the most pretentious snobby, skinny, perfectly-outfitted girls you could ever see in your life – and they all go to my studio. It’s not like I never noticed before, its just that it really bothered me last night. So [...]

Day 18 – Evil Thighs
So ….I’m guessing this might be the 2/3 part I heard about where I supposedly am going to feel like I’m dying. Because yeah, I feel like dying. My thighs are not my own right now. They are part of an evil plot to take me away from my 30-day challenge. And I can’t sleep. [...]

Day 16 is done
I know you guys don’t care about me anymore, but are you reading my yoga stuff? I finished Day 16. I did it! And by the way – I decided that bad, junky foods put me in a bad mood. I don’t know if it’s because the actual foods have no nutritional value and just [...]

bikini tops
it has been so hot here the past few days I’ve taken to just wearing a bikini top in my house. Gives me full access to check my stomach out in the mirror every single time I pass it. I took some progress pics and I have to say at least I wasn’t horrified as [...]

Sleep became me
Finally, the sweet relief of a good night’s sleep. Thank you Ativan! hey that’s what it’s there for right? Emergencies like that. No way was I going to risk another night of bad sleep, and feeling like I did yesterday. So today already started off to be a better day because I slept. I went [...]

Skinny Cargo
Well I’m clippin along the challenge. Finished Day 6 yesterday. I’m exhilarated. It was raining all weekend and I had such a productive weekend. I did all my grocery shopping (including Whole Foods), made my own Black Bean Burgers (and I have to tell you – it was sooooo easy), did four loads of laundry [...]

Nerd trekking
Well I managed to escape Whole Foods by only spending $12!! Stocked up on spelt and kamut berries and bought some Bragg Apple Cidar Vinegar to make Vegan Slaw Dressing from Love Veggies and Yoga blog. Also some organic green onions because they taste soooo awesome. I also treked across the city and stocked up [...]

challenge me
Thursday Yoga Class (DAY #3) Shandy Rae (yoga teacher) says at the beginning of class, “Okay, who here is doing the 30-day challenge?”. Me and another girl raise our hands. Shandy nods approvingly. “Okay, who here is doing their own challenge?” About three more hands go up proudly. “Everybody should have their hand up” she [...]

bloated fish mouth
I actually took the morning to cook and prepare food. I really hate to prepare fruit – it’s one of my biggest pet peeves. I have always said I would eat way more fruit if someone just washed and cut it up for me. But alas, I am not rich nor do I have a [...]

limp om
A weak om to me is like a weak handshake – just do it properly! I hate limp hands. I hate limp oms. The yoga teacher who irritates me…. (let’s give her a nickname shall we? Help me think of one. The Irritator? The Yoga Nerd?). Anyway, her oms are SO WEAK. And she does [...]

hot migraines in the city
Well, woke up with a migraine today. Wasn’t even mad about it, because I expected it from yoga. I know that I’ll probably be getting a lot of them until my body gets used to it again. I know there is a light at the end of the tunnel though – the headaches definitely minimize [...]

better life
Ok, after 12 hours straight every day of working on that final website project, I am done. I swear I’m never doing another one again. But you know I probably will. I bet it’s like during childbirth when women say they’ll never have another child again – but then they always do. Yes….I’ll most likely [...]

Monday Blues
I did end up going to yoga Sunday night. It was okay. I pushed a little too hard in Dancer’s Pose and paid for it with twinges of spasmodic pain in my lower back all the way home. Nice. coffee with f/f creamer – 30 (1) 1 egg – 70 (2) shredded cheese – 50 [...]

Today I went, spent $40 (what!) and got this: Arugula green onions goat feta fresh parmasean quinoa and sweet potato burgers spelt and kamut berries sunflower seed butter ginger tea [...]

Taming the Monkey
Yoga was interesting last night. I didn’t feel like I did any good in any of the poses, except near the very end when we sat on our knees/feet and tried to “find the stillness”, I had a very serene cool out-of-body type experience. And then as soon as I recognized it and tried to [...]

70s hair
My hair smells like the 1970s. And I love it. I am using this stuff from Lush called Big Shampoo. Every time I use it I smile. It’s such weird stuff, like very goopy and it has these little chunks/beads in it. But when you start to rub it on your hair it lathers up [...]

I always hated math
Um….what’s up? Today and yesterday, did you see my calories? Does this make my other post not true or something? Disappointment and fear is sinking my heart, sinking it like this weight loss ship I’m on. Was the calories thing NOT the reason I’m not losing weight and so now I’m back to being totally [...]

140 calories for cream?
Oh my lord you guys. You won’t believe it. For some reason I thought that a coffee from Tim Horton’s with two cream was equal to 2 Weight Watchers points. Not great, but definitely doable. Well, since I decided to get all Nazi with my calories, I’m looking up every single thing that passes through [...]

One point does not a calorie make
found out that Weight Watchers points are not 50 calories per point, I have been eating way more calories than I thought, going to switch to calorie counting
