There is so much emotion...
embedded in each pound
every hurt… every abuse… every loss… every struggle… all packed into these pounds I’m trying to shed. Its not just about vanity. Its about being free of everything that has ever weighed me down literally and figuratively. It’s about feeling like I’m failing in life when I fail at losing weight. Its about feeling like so much of who...
This Better Work
So far today, I’ve walked about 5 miles. I’ve consumed about 500 calories (burned more than that in my morning walk). I’ve been monitoring my food intake almost obsessively, and exercising almost DAILY.
Knowing how I am, I just pray I start seeing and feeling real results soon.
It’s so discouraging to do all of this work and see nothing come of it… and that...

So far, no “treatment effects” but I don’t want to speak too soon.

escapedgoat:
Question: What’s the meaning behind your Tumblr name and what made you choose it?
Mine is from the mangling of the popular phrase “scapegoat”, plus I’m a Goat (Capricorn).
Mine is based on my using this blog to chronicle my weight loss efforts. I’m a fat ass with a fat ass and this is my life :)

Alli Ass Pt. 1
So I’m going to blog about my experience with Alli, the weight loss assistance pill. I ordered a 7 day trial package from eBay (shut up) and I’m going to blog about it.
So you’re supposed to take one pill an hour before or after eating a meal. You should not consume more than 15g of fat in one meal or you will experience extreme “treatment effects” (their term).
So...
I'm Tired of Eating
I dont know what has happened but I’m tired of eating. In the last week, I can only think of two times I was actually “hungry”. I eat because I know I’m supposed to. I’m carrying around 300+ lbs that need energy and nutrients, but honestly… I’m not really that hungry and I’m tired of eating. Every time I eat, I feel like I’m packing away a...
Cinnamon Can Prevent Diabetes →
Good to know since I have been adding it to my oatmeal. I was diagnosed with Type II diabetes in 2002. It went into “remission” in 2004. Since then, I’ve been vigilant about making better food choices and avoiding getting back to that place. My insulin regimen during my pregnancy helped a LOT.

Except its your thumb and middle finger doing the movements… I’m confused.
It’s more like that one part of your palm kinda close to the bottom of your thumb so you don’t really realize when you do it. Oh…yeah, I snapped 3 times. And paid attention that 2nd and 3rd time. That’s if this is true. O_o
Ok. My index finger isnt even involved in the movement,...

The Peace Corps = FAIL
Over 1,000 women have come forward, say they were raped while volunteering for the Peace Corps over the last decade.
Women say they’ve been asked to say nothing, to give false reasons for withdrawing from assignments OR being told they would not be reassigned.
They say the Peace Corps has often blamed the women for not adhering to cultural norms (i.e. being out “late” at 5pm).

Open
I am open to the possibilities, but I don’t believe in them
I am open to the chances, but unwilling to take them
I am open to what may come, but uncertain it will ever
I am open to consideration, but it will take a considerable amount of patience
I am open to the connection, but not sure how to make it
I am open to being found, yet I’m still not looking
I guess I am...
Bootlegged W.eight W.atchers
You know, in this day and age of technology, it’s not only musicians losing money from pirating.
When I did WW the second time (the first time I ended up pregnant from being so healthy lol), I did it this way. It worked, believe it or not. I just fell off. This doesn’t account for this new Points Plus program… which people are still debating about its effectiveness. I *do* agree...
Guess what?
I’m hungry.
I Want To Be Loved...
I want to be loved.
I want to be thought of at random moments.
I want to be held when my tears fall.
I want to be embraced with warm reassurance when life turns cold.
I want to be someone’s “baby girl”.
I want to know that someone needs me.
I want to to be missed.
I want to be courted.
I want to be amazed by the simple thought of the one who loves me.
I want to be...
Houston We Have a Problem...
My scale doesnt work
I weighed myself yesterday morning… twice
I weighed myself this morning… 3 different times
I got 5 different numbers. Not off by .2 or .4 but numbers off by as much as 3-4 lbs.
That’s not good because if I go with the first measurement, I can be discouraged if it suggests I’ve gained weight.
Then if I get off the scale, wait 30 seconds, and get on...
A better day.. kinda
I was feeling better today…
Maybe it was because of the rush I got from the gym. I had a really great workout this morning before my training. I like getting up before the sun rises and walking in relative silence. I caught the 6:30 am train, got the city at 7 and was in the gym by 7:15am (it took me a bit to find this location, which I found out had relocated around the corner from where...
Depression...
… is setting in.
I’m becoming overshadowed by the dark cloud.
It couldn’t have formed at a worse time. Don’t tell me to snap out of it. I’mma just do what I gotta do and fight through it.
I just had to force myself to eat because my calorie count for the day was a whopping 550.
I’mma just watch Oprah.

newmodelminority:
There is a lot of money being made off of people who live in the hood and this is why if you live in the hood you pay for shit twice, and the endless need for profit/growth plays a huge role.
Last fall, my professor said that a unit of profit requires exploitation. What she meant by this is that in order for someone to profit, someone else has to take a...

… at people trying to be supportive. But I’ve been at this for 9 years now and its the same shit every time. I do everything right and see little to no changes at all. The encouraging words are cool and all, but you just dont get it. Its SO easy for slim or fit or even medium-sized people to say “You can do it!” when they have never been here. This is a tough fucking place...
Obsessive Guilt
So one of the things I notice about myself when I make efforts to lose weight is that I become obsessive in my feelings of guilt when I misstep. I’ll have you know I’m somewhat of a perfectionist. Ok, not somewhat. I struggle when I don’t win or succeed or when things go wrong. I pride myself on being able to make good decisions, on being an effective leader, and on being...
In True Aries Fashion...
I gave up on the letter writing challenge because it began to bore me.
Sorry…
We Arians are notorious for our inability to see things through, even when we started them with passion and commitment.
That explains a WHOLE lot about my life and how I operate.
And I think it’s part of why I’ve done the up-and-down thing with the weight loss. It’s not that I don’t know...

Dear Mom
It is so interesting how different my life is without you in it. I’ve written this letter before, so no need to get too deep or revisit those things. Too many people are watching. I know how private you are. I get that from you.
Things are done and he is out of my life. I know you didn’t like him. Well, you liked him but you didn’t trust him. You warned me and I...
Breakfast Smoothie
This morning I decided to try something different. I had a smoothie from Planet Smoothie in Penn Station. One of the great things about living or working in NYC is that all chain stores have to display calorie counts for everything.
