In T-minus 8 hours I’ll be taking part in my 2nd 5K – but the first one since my surgery! The first 5K I did was the Gobble Jog which took place last Thanksgiving morning, 2 months before my surgery. I did it on a total whim with my sister and brother-in-law. My time for [...]

My Lap Band Girls
On Thursday night I met with my “Lap Band Girls,” which is always such a treat. All three of us are around the same age (okay, I am known as the baby of the group. But nonetheless, I am the tallest!) We each got our Lap Band within 6-weeks of one another. And we all [...]

Learning To Sacrifice, Learning To Save: It’s A High Price To Pay To Live Healthy
I’ve been thinking a lot about money. How could you not? With the prices of gas and food, it’s difficult to not obsessively think about the green. Even a movie is $10 in Atlanta. I know it’s more in NYC. It’s crazy! I am so much better about saving money than I used to be. [...]

NSV (Non Scale Victories) While On Vacation!

Physical Changes In My Family: A Reflection
About to head to the gym. Feeling a little bored. I don’t have a computer because my Apple is at the Apple Store for repairs. Hopefully I will get my computer back this week! I got back on Saturday from the beach with my family. Had a great time jogging on the beach and eating lots [...]

Death, Gasoline & String Cheese
My week started off with a dead body. Literally. Right there on the road next to Marlow’s Tavern on West Peachtree. I saw a dead body – being put into a tan-colored body bag. CSI was there holding up sheets so people couldn’t see, but I saw. The dead body. CSI seems way cooler when [...]
