Surviving

All of those holiday treats might have tried to attach themselves directly to my belly, Fester, but to no avail. Sure, I might have injured my knee permanently, (never do lunges when you're body is still freezing cold), but that extra pound is gone. Let's see that makes a total of 115 pounds, right? Damn straight little snowman cookie with the chocolate chip eyes! Nice try Frosty, but you could never touch that.

Moreover, Medi has taken out another full page ad with that woman who bears an uncanny resemblance to me in this months Tampa Parenting magazine again. That makes two months in a row now! The only problem is that chick. She definitely stole my look. I know they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery but she seriously needs get her own style.

True, it's no Time, or Vogue or even a Victoria Secret catalogue but a delivery in the mail of the latter could lead to someone possibly picking up a Parenting magazine down the road... It's just cool to be in any publication and to support something I really care about when most of my life I've never really been confident enough in my appearance to put myself out there. (And I had dreams of it being for something I wrote, for my mind...)

Who knows, I might even make to the January issue. Yeah, they should totally do a new shoot every month with free clothes and a whole glam squad just to change it up. I could be their very first calendar girl and any residual profits could be used to throw parties for all the clients and staff. Like the Cafe Disco on The Office, only in a medical clinic and without Dwight. There's plenty more ideas where that came from but they have to hire me before I divulge anymore. :)

But until that happens, all I can offer is a song. This goes out to everyone who got through 2010 but especially to all my sisters. To the women who still manage to reach out to others despite being sick. The women who made it through the season despite having shotty metabolisms that don't enable them to consume as many calories as those skinny bitches. And to the women who succeeded despite having to wear tacky stage outfits designed by their mother. Here's to you and an even better new year!

  1. You go GIRL! I saw that ad you refer to, and she is totally trying to steal your look. But then again why not, your hot like Jolie, genious smart like Curie, whitty like Meir, and not near as annoying as Miley! Keep up the great effort! Bum knee be damned, you will not be sidetracked!

  2. I was on "Twitter" and came across you, Fellow Forida Girl and Medi Girl. Great job on your weight loss. I went through some of your Blogs and they are looking great. Keep up the good work. ...Just started the blogging thing and reached my goal with Medi. That's three things we have in common: Florida, Medi, Blogging... How long have you been at your goal?

  3. Hi Barbara. Congratulations on reaching your goal! I hit my target weight last March, so it's been almost a year. I still struggle with sweets so I sometimes vent through blogging. :) It's good to have a sense of humor about it and maybe help others too.
