A couple days ago I put on an old pair of Dockers and they fit perfectly! I didn't even have to suck in my stomach to button it! Plus, I now have to wear a belt with my favorite pair of jeans!
Just installed WordPress 2.3... begrudgingly. I really had no desire to, but since I was already a couple version behind, I thought, what the hell.
WordPress 2.3 really didn't have anything new for me. Sure, it has tagging, but I use (err, used) Ultimate Tag Warrior and loved it.
And WordPress 2.3 likes to break some installs on upgrades. I just edited my contact page and I got an error. The contact form itself works, but editing the page was a pain.

I've had a bad week. I know, the last set of numbers above are going in the right direction. But the whole week was... off. With family issues and time issues and everything else that life threw my way, I just didn't put what I know to do to be healthy in action.
This was a much better day. Started off with my 'regular' breakfast, which really does make a difference for me.
I didn't walk... again. And I need to find ways to get more veggies in my diet.
9am breakfast - bowl of cereal with 1/2 banana, milk & coffee
11:30am - toast (1) with jam - a couple glasses of water
1:30 - Lunch - Scrambled Egg Wrap - 2 eggs scrambled in a whole wheat tortilla with cheese, Canadian bacon and dollop of salsa to taste.
3:30 - 8oz Smoothie
5:50 - 8oz Smoothie
6:30 - Tuna sandwich w/lettuce and a bit of mayo
7:45 - 16oz Smoothie
This is a bad day. It started off bad and didn't improve much. In fact, my lunch, which should have been my cheat meal, was probably the best choice food-wise I made all day.
The first of the month is always hectic. I drive my mom around (she doesn't have a car) to do errands. Add to that I had a headache all day, and skipped by evening workout - which I shouldn't have done - made for bad choices. But the nice thing about this is I can always start again!
In June of this year, I weighed about 165 pounds and had a belly-measurement of 38". On September 29th I weighed 148 pounds and had a belly-measurement of 35". I don't know about you, but those numbers look pretty good to me.
I did this all by changing my diet. I didn't join a gym (but I do try to work out at home.) I didn't join Weight Watchers. I don't put my food into Zones. I just make smarter decisions about the foods I eat.
And I decided to write out my diet (what I eat) for the world to read and scrutinize.
When the city of Seattle decided to build a light rail system in the South Lake Union area of Seattle, they decided that it needed a trolley. So millions of dollars later and what do we get?
We get a SLUT.
The South Lake Union Trolley.
Before everything was done, someone realized that the acronym really wasn't appropriate. (For South Lake Union. In Downtown or Pioneer Square SLUT would have been useful. As in "Ride the SLUT to get to your prostitute.")
