still fat....
still not happy about it...
still seemingly incapable of changing...

Doing Really Bad :(
no doing good at all... actually doing really bad...
cookies, DQ blizzards, fudge... :(
did super on vacation: ate quite healthy and walked all the time
but now... since we came back, Easter brought some candy and chocolate
and it just hasn't stopped since then.
very sad and upset about it.
have to somehow get a fresh start again.

a spoonful of peanut butter!
isn't a spoonful of peanut butter out of the jar divine at certain times?
highly caloric and soooo not on the right track...
(although we do by the reduced fat stuff)
but ahhhhhh, sometimes, it is just right

off the wagon
This week has been rough. We had a death in the family and I have not exercised once this week, nor read any of my books that are helping me stay on track and I have eaten a bunch of crap. And I pretty certain I have not had one glass of water!
many meals on the go, sweets at the funeral home visitations, at family meals together and at the reception and take out too...
seriously need to get back on track.
although I must also accept that this week was not a typical one and is more about losing someone dear and special then about moving forward. Tomorrow is a new day in many ways.

Biggest Loser
So last night was Biggest Loser night. And I watched enthralled as I always do. I fantasize that I have Jillian or Bob urging / torturing me to achieve all that I can. I fantasized that in 9 weeks I had lost what those people had lost. And I wondered... as I have wondered for years when watching this show... how is it possible to lose that kind of weight in that kind of time?
And in previous seasons, I would sit there and eat ice cream while watching... instead this season, I have been eating oranges. I am sort of orange obsessed right now. Hey, it is waaaayyyy better then ice cream for me and I also don't feel like a hypocrite while watching.

Welcome to Diary of a Fat Chick
First off...
I am a fat chick. This is a label I have given myself. Others fat people can take exception. Feminists can take exception to the word chick. I care not. I am fat, I am female and therefore I am a Fat Chick. Do I call others this? nooooo... I do not. I do call the stores that sell only Plus size clothes Fat Chick or Fat Lady stores but only to myself and my inner circle and they always get mad at me.
So... this year... 2008
I decided to do something about this Fat Chick-ness problem / affliction / state I am in.
Since I have lost several people (this is determined by having added up all the weight I lost in all the Weight Watcher weigh in books) through Weight Watchers (I started when I was 13) and have gone up, down, UP etc. I thought that this time around I would combine methods. I love Weight Watchers and know it works but I wanted more ammunition for the battle.
I have been to a hypnotherapist 3 times and am learning how to self-trance. I have bought the Bob Greene book and the Jillian Michaels book and I am signed on to the Bob Greene challenge. I also paid for a year at L.A. Weight Loss at the most astounding price ever: $189 for a year (cheaper then Weight Watchers) as having a stranger regularly weigh me somehow helps.
The Biggest Loser inspires me every week!
A good friend & colleague & fellow weight-challenged buddy comes over at what I feel is an ungodly hour (5:45 in the morning) so we can exercise together. Luv ya Hope-a-la!
I also log onto Spark People to track my food, exercise and utilize the message boards. It is free and frankly it is awesome.
I am trying to build a network of suport and resources to get this achieved once and for all.
I just took the "Real Age Test" and talk about depression hitting. Holy Moley! I Dare You to take it!
So I shall post on here semi-regular in an effort to share the roller coaster that shall be my battle but it will also be where I shall document the winning of the war... The War of the Bulge.
You know the rumor about it is harder to lose weight when you are older: it really is dammit!
So guys... wish me luck! and if anyone wants to join me along the way... just let me know! I'll be there for you if you be there for me eh?
cheers!
