Taking the Long Way: October 2008
http://lastpick.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 25, 2008. Okay, so I don't know if I mentioned this before, but my sister's pregnant. Actually, now there's a new little bundle of joy in this world! Yep, I'm an aunt. I'm super excited. I haven't met her yet, but we've "chatted" on the phone. She's got some lungs I'll tell ya. But I can tell she's very intelligent and has a dry sense of humor :) Just our kind of girl! Sunday, October 19, 2008. Short, but Busy Week. Sunday, October 12, 2008. National Weight Control Registry. I'm so sorr...

Taking the Long Way: May 2008
http://lastpick.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 23, 2008. And I don't seem to be gaining and I've been here for a month now. (Wow, time flies! We'll see if I stay for the meeting. Sorry I'm so ramble-y. It's been a long week. I can't believe it's almost 10pm. Maybe I'll get to bed early tonight. I hope you are all well. Wednesday, May 21, 2008. And I'm going to be alone all weekend because my friend is visiting her parents out of town. I'm also looking for an apartment and not finding anything in my price range. Ugh again! I'm sorry I have...

Taking the Long Way: April 2008
http://lastpick.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Sunday, April 27, 2008. So, I'm now in NYC! I flew in a few days ago and I'm staying with a fabulous friend until I move into my own apartment, which should be in about a month. I looked at a place yesterday and it is a great deal, so fingers crossed that one works out! That was hard to write.) I didn't even know that was humanly possible. You know what the biggest trouble makers were . scrambled eggs that I had at a restaurant, fried calamari (obviously! Sunday, April 20, 2008. The bizarre thing for me ...

Taking the Long Way: My "SMART" Goals for 2009
http://lastpick.blogspot.com/2009/01/my-smart-goals-for-2009.html
Tuesday, January 06, 2009. My "SMART" Goals for 2009. 143 lbs. @ WW on Saturday, January 3rd. 145 lbs. @ home on Tuesday, January 6th. Yep, it's my turn . I figure one woman's resolution is another woman's goal, so today I think I'm ready to share my goals for 2009. Over the years I've learned that one should create S.M.A.R.T. Goals (Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant, and Timely). Keep off 100% of original weight lost (82.8 lbs. lost - 141 lbs. goal). Attainable (I kept off 97.8% in 2008! Work r...

Taking the Long Way: Family Stress, Holiday Stress
http://lastpick.blogspot.com/2008/12/family-stress-holiday-stress.html
Tuesday, December 30, 2008. Family Stress, Holiday Stress. I thought I did well on the eating front, but really, let's not kid a kidder: stuffing, gravy, chocolate mousse, my favorite beer. Deep dish pizza . the list goes on and on and on. I also got the Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred DVD. From Netflix yesterday (thanks for the suggestions! So, I can test drive that tomorrow morning. (Saturday and Sunday look like they might be dry possibilities for running outside. Still not sure about spending ...So, m...

Taking the Long Way: June 2008
http://lastpick.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 23, 2008. Squishy Like a Teddy Bear*. When life is either a struggle or a rut? Saturday, June 07, 2008. Secrets to my Success. Thanks again for all your supportive comments. It really is so great to be able to share that information with all of you. Jodi. I realized that my life really wasn't going to change all that much once I lost the weight. I used to think to myself that I just sit on my couch all the time and watch TV, what's going to be different once I lose weight? I found exercise I...

Taking the Long Way: August 2008
http://lastpick.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 22, 2008. It Happens to the Best of Us. I started having a piece of cake here or there when it was some one's. I actually had McDonald's last week! I have been eating all together too many bagels lately. I started eating them again in Vegas, but usually only after hiking for 3 hours. Now I just eat them because it's morning! And then there's the beer and the wine. I've been drinking too often. And sometimes its not even light beer. Tuesday, August 19, 2008. Virginia is for Walking. I had h...

Taking the Long Way: Love Actually Insults (The Movie)
http://lastpick.blogspot.com/2008/12/love-actually-insults-movie.html
Saturday, December 20, 2008. Love Actually Insults (The Movie). 1428 lbs. @ WW on Saturday, Dec. 20th. 1448 lbs. @ home on Saturday, Dec. 20th. So, that 2 lb. difference is a little weird, I'm not used to weighing myself at home AND at WW, but I'm still down from last week, so I'll take 142 or 144 :). I just watched what I would like to call a sweet movie about different kinds of love - Love Actually. From the 90's - swoon! So why make so many of them uncomfortable? Why insult so many of them? On a happi...
