YIKES

Wednesday, Sep 23

I stepped on the scale today. I have SO been in denial.

I knew I’d gained some weight–I quit smoking 3 months ago today, after all.

Well, it turns out I gained about twice what I thought I did!

Here’s what I feel good about, though. I can do something about this. I can be BOTH a slender person AND a nonsmoker.

I’ve done Weight Watchers so many times and, frankly, with my current deadlines, I just don’t need another commitment on the calendar. What to do, what to do?

I’m taking a page out of Marie Osmond’s book. I signed up for Nutrisystem. I admit it, I want something that works quickly and doesn’t take a lot of thinking, because all my energies are going into my book at this point.

Darn it, I have a big time coming up at the rodeo in Vegas this December, and I want to look good in my jeans.

So, no more recipes for a while. No more Boeuf Bourg. in the immediate future, but that’s okay.

I’ll keep you posted on my progress, of course–you can expect to read more about the art, the critters, and the preparation of my deck garden for winter.

I love knowing you’re out there.
