I’m fixated on the doctor’s appointment and the lack of interest in me she has actually taken. I’m still fed up, angry and frustrated. The worse part, I got my bill today. Last time I went was around $83. This time was over $111!
She didn’t do shit! She didn’t even try [...]

Everyone knows that you’re going to pick up germs from everything in the world. One thing that a lot of people think about is what you’re putting your head on at night when you go to bed. I never really gave it a whole lot of thought either, but I did when I [...]

Social Tagging: Couple Pounds • Diet Pill • Diet Pills • Wtf
I went to the doctor on Tuesday. I’m not all that impressed with her, or her office in general any more. She spent less than 5 minutes with me. Just long enough to complain about my weight. Yeah, it creeped up a couple pounds in 6 months. So what? Isn’t it [...]

Ow. My neck, my back, my wrists, my ankles. All sound like rice krispies every day when I wake up. I hate it, especially since it’s highly likely that I can develop rheumatoid arthritis. Heck, I could already have it, or worse. My mother has fibroblasts, so it’s definitely that [...]

Okay, I have a newfound love for Schwan’s Fire Baked Spinach and Mushroom Pizza. I have to admit that I’ve never had portabella mushrooms on anything and these were REALLY good. Typically, I don’t like frozen pizza, but I’ve been buying the different Schwan’s pizza’s lately. The best part? Frozen pizza’s are really not [...]

I feel absolutely horrible, I spent far too long outside in the cold Friday night. It was well worth it, though, to see the Sayre Holiday Parade. However, spending over 2 hours outside, on cold concrete has nearly killed me.
I want to go out and buy some awesome Eagle Creek luggage and go [...]

Social Tagging: Beauty Products • Body Wraps • Commercials • Inch Loss Body Wrap
Everyone seems to want to lose weight and make themselves look better, but who is to say what makes a person better? I see commercials for beauty products all the time that promise things. They show before and after pictures that sometimes are hard to tell if it’s really the same person. Now, [...]

My husband goes to the doctor again in a little over a month. I had him check his blood sugar this morning and it was 141. It’s high, which no longer shocks me. His weight is up as well and he and I both knows what that means. He’s going to [...]

If you’re a big woman like I am, have you ever been told that you should ‘try this’ pill/diet/whatever? I know I’ve heard it more than once in my life. I’ve been big all my life, but does anyone bother to ask me if there’s a medical reason for it? Nope, they don’t care. [...]

Day after day, week after week, month after month, I just keep on getting older. It’s not a foreign concept, really. It’s what happens. But the older I get, the more I realize that I need to think about my future. My health isn’t fabulous, I don’t deny that. I [...]

This is a post where-in I pontificate about body image. Yeah, I do that from time to time. I’m a thinker, at best. Everywhere you look, you see beautiful women who can wear just about everything ever made. This makes me sad, really, because the size of the average women in [...]

So they say that it’s a good idea to work out in a gym, especially if you’re just starting to work out. Sure, I can get behind that. but is it really a great idea to put someone who hasn’t worked out in years on the ellipticals first thing?
No? I didn’t think so either. [...]

So, after my doctor’s appointment Tuesday and the abysmal amount of weight I lost over the last 6 months, I thought that it was time to do some serious research about what else I can do to stimulate my weight loss. I’m not happy with it in the slightest, but I really don’t want [...]

Normally, my weight isn’t something that I talk about so openly. But, maybe it’s time that I do. I am overweight, I will not tell you how much overweight, however. I have always been overweight. As a child, I was large. I just continued to get larger as I got [...]

So, I’ve been seeing all kinds of new advertisements since the first of the year. One thing that I’ve noticed is that around the first of every year, you get a new round of celebrity spokespeople. It makes me wonder, sometimes, especially when it comes to the diet plans and pills, whether the [...]

There was a time when you could count on being a doctor, nurse, lawyer, teacher or mechanic if you wanted to have a job that is safe. In today’s economy, most of those career fields are no longer secure. It’s scary, really, to think that the jobs that are pushed as most secure [...]

One of the changes that is in the air for 2009 for me is a change of diet. I want to do more healthy grilling of meats. I have a grill, I’ve used it, but I don’t use it nearly enough. It’s too easy to get lulled into the trap of doing [...]
