Happy 2-Year “Bandiversary”!

I have passed the 2-year mark since getting my lap band.  Time is going by so fast, it seems.  I am sometimes not sure time really reflects change or change reflects time.  Perhaps they are like odds and ends, ups and downs – you really can’t have one without the other. I have started fitness [...]

Life: The Battle of Calories & Control

Things are going pretty well in my life.  I mean, I can always find something to complain about, “I need more money” … “Oprah is leaving me next year.  WHY!!!!!”  Last week really put a lot in perspective for me.  I know 2 people who lost their lives.  One was a sorority sister of mine, [...]

Good For The Soul

Getting frustrated b/c I haven’t lost any weight in over 3 months!  I’ve been eating well + working out.  I’m feeling restriction with my band.  My body must be in a SUPER STUBBORN place right now.  On the other hand, I’m glad to be alive and healthy and headed in the right direction.  Someone the [...]

Cherry Blossoms

Things overall are going well.  Work has been good.  I am going to start looking at getting a new car – or by new I mean new for me – probably a used one.  I’ve driven the same Volvo since I was 15!  I love him – and named him Ringo.  He’s seen me through [...]

Just Dance

I had so much fun last night – a friend of mine whom I haven’t seen in like a year and a half held a Yoga Trance Dance Workshop at Yoga Samadhi Studios.  It was sort of like Yoga meets a Widespread Concert.  It started off with traditional Yoga poses, but then you branch out [...]

Back From Paris … Some Ponderings

I feel like I am getting back in the swing of things since coming home from Paris.  I feel a little lazy – maybe it’s just the jet lag?  I’ve been back for one week, and when I got home, I went straight to work and then came down with this cold.  I haven’t been [...]
