The Not-So Little Skirt

Was attempting to wear this skirt this morning…to no avail. Bought it probably over a year ago, and can only recall wearing it once, maybe twice- from Old Navy. Def didn’t fit back in July 2010 because I would have taken it to Puerto Rico with me but didn’t. It’s a size 14. Exciting to […]

Spring Cleaning Zipper Detail

Spring cleaning today I tried on all my little numbers- primarily dresses. Jeans are pretty done, I think I have maybe 2 pairs left that are passable- and tops still fit. Here’s the deal, that I’d like to clarify- I only really bought a couple of ‘fat clothes’- otherwise, I was just wearing my clothes […]

Fresh & Co

Social Networking gone right! For those that underestimate, or don’t estimate social media at all, you’re dead wrong. Really. I work near Penn Station- lucky for me, I have SO many options for food, and while I do switch it up here and there, there are only a few places I’ve decided to go to that […]

Tie Your Belt?

Gone are the days when anyone wears anything the “right” way. I cannot remember where/who I recently saw this- but tying a belt, with a buckle, instead of fastening. Tried it this morning- kind of loved the look! What do you think? Not to mention, I really just needed a solution for the cardigan and belt which […]

Will He Is: CrossFitter & Trainer

Black Coffee

um- so part of the 8 Week Challenge I’m starting to finish off my weight loss, which I’ll be telling you about in a post tomorrow-ish, includes reassessing my diet just a little bit, adding and subtracting things. One thing we’re subtracting? Milk & sugar that would respectively go in my iced coffee. Which I […]

8 Year Weigh-In

So… I did a little research today- because I realized, having lost 61 lbs (as of today) that I don’t know when I’ve EVER weighed 183 lbs. All I had was this comparison (full body on the left) from my freshman year in college, October 2005, halloween, CCNY volleyball, where I figured I might have […]

Closing the Bakery

First time I’ve gotten good “full body” photos to compare to this “benchmark” photo…the one that changed my life. Arrows on benchmark show at least 3 visible “rolls” I used to keep in the bakery- which as you can see, as of 4/29, are gone. Not completely of course- I’m not solid- but whatever is […]

Workout Overdrive

No, no bueno. Something I was lucky enough to know and understand when I started my journey down this tough tough world of ‘losing weight’- mostly because I had a couple of trainer friends that were actually trying to get me down this road a looooong time ago. I’ve also been very athletic from school/college- […]

Midday Belt Test

In the midst of my losing weight, I have fun days like today, where I realize how much weight I’ve actually lost (close to 57 lbs) :). This belt used to barely fit in the first hole back in Dec 2010. Now look!
