An Experiment in Cerise (and fun with the thesaurus)

Hey guys!

I am down 21.7 pounds in 21.0 days! Yay!

To celebrate I bought $18 bright red lipstick and I am going to wear it every day for at least a week. It has been about 20 minutes and I already have bright red sploches all over my hands, cheeks and teeth so I know this is going to be fabulous!

I'll post a pic of me and my lips the shade of Vino de Amor shortly, but here is a picture of Davey Pickle to tide you over.


You know you love it!

Hi Folks,

After losing 10 pounds in about 3 days I was frustrated to see the scale moving up and down the same 2 pounds for a full week! I have to be honest, that didn't make me feel so good. What is the point of this rediculous diet if there is no result??

I was encouraged by taking my measurements and learning that I had already lost 4 inches around my body, with 1 inch coming from my waist. According to Realage.com, that's good!

Also, got my first, "You look like you are losing weight!" comment. Thanks Dee!

I do have to admit that I cheated a little bit yesterday. I was in Joshua Tree with my family and we went to Sizzler. Now I know that to most people Sizzler is not a huge temptation, but I love corn. Especially when it is in the form of a deep fried nugget. Served with cheese bread.

Oh well, I am moving on.

But I weighed myself this morning and fully expected to have gained weight, especially considering my gastropod behavior yesterday and found that I am down 7 pounds! I guess my body finally got over its plateau and decided to keep losing! Whee!

So as of today I am down a total of 17 pounds. That's a pretty good big picture :)
