I was pleasantly surprised on Wednesday – truly surprised. I was heading into East Lansing to see a friend play at a local brew pub. It’s a nicer place, so I could dress up a little bit.
I decided to try on some denim shorts that haven’t fit me since last [...]

Weight loss is incredibly frustrating. Some of us are just more prone to gaining weight than others. There are women who can pop out three kids, eat whatever they want, and still look like bombshells. Then there is me. I so much as look at a nut and my Polish body [...]

I’ve been quite the little party girl, lately. Dining out and consuming generous amounts of alcohol in the presence of friends has been the order of the day…for many days.
Saturday night, I wisely went for breakfast before I drove home. I ate a lot – Perkin’s pancakes and eggs benedict. I love [...]

Well, I certainly did not stay within my POINTS range, today. Before dinner, I’ve consumed 41 POINTS. That works out to about 2,050 calories. I knew what I was getting into with the milkshake. That was planned. I feel like crap. I feel tired and my throat hurts. [...]
