The Religion of Dieting

in My Hot Bod on April 21, 2000 January 16, 2019

Back from Hotlanta w/ renewed spirit. Ready to accept the challenge posed to me by Dawn wherein I spend an entire day NOT thinking about my weight. What a concept! Here’s what I wrote while…

Plans

in Archive My Hot Bod on March 28, 2000 December 9, 2016

Recovering from the Oscar Party, but otherwise still sticking to the “type” foods and Krav Maga. I’d like to add in Pilates classes at the KM Center, but that’s an extra $10 a month —…

Blood Type

in Archive My Hot Bod on March 18, 2000 February 28, 2018

Now that Dawn and I are up to two Krav Maga sessions per week, and I’m a week into the Blood Type Diet, things are really starting to feel “right”. I’m still sore after a…

Badass

I get it now. I’m not weak. I’m strong. And I’m not even “just strong” — I’m a badass. How empowering! Thank you, Father!

Jenny Craig

120 Days

in Archive My Hot Bod on September 2, 1999 June 26, 2021

Moved

in Archive My Hot Bod on July 20, 1999 December 9, 2016

In the new place, walking everywhere, gym membership, trainer, yoga, pilates, and eating pretty much whatever I want. No changes in numbers, but, man do I feel good!

Cinco de Mayo

in Archive My Hot Bod on May 5, 1999 December 9, 2016

Well, I thought I was brave and courageous and ready to conquer things. Turns out I’m just as scared as ever. Plus homesick. So, here I sit, belly swollen from all the chocolate I’ve ingested,…

ECO-Challenge

in Archive My Hot Bod on April 10, 1999 December 9, 2016

Well, I’m stalled out on the brink of the 160s. I keep hitting 169 and then jumping quickly back to 171 (for safety, methinks). I was in the 160s when the earthquake hit and I…
