Still Round

If you’ve had enough of the weight talk, do not read this post. Better yet, come back to this blog next week because I’m pretty I’ll be obsessing over my weight for a few days more. See, the Sunstar spread came out today; Alex looks cute. In contrast, I look like one of the warships in the Spanish armada. Or, to be less cruel to myself – a container van.

I wish losing weight is as easy as losing hair – which is really easy, I tell you! Just try stressing out over every little thing that doesn’t sit right with you and before you know it, you’ll be balder than Bembol Roco.

But I digress. Let’s go back to talking weight. I’m really, really keen on losing weight. That doesn’t mean I’ll try any fad diet, though. You shouldn’t, either. Ever heard of Colonix? It’s a colon cleansing kit that’s being marketed as the ultimate weight loss product. Don’t buy their marketing pitch. Colon cleansers sound iffy for a reason – they are. Why on earth would you cleanse your colon yourself? Your body is built to be self-cleansing! I wouldn’t try colon cleansing on myself, that much you can count on.

What’s next on the list for me? Subscribing to Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop, I think. I know Gwyn’s getting laughed at for this project but hey, the lady’s putting a lot of effort into goop-ing. Goop may not help me much but what would it hurt, right? So thinness, fabulousity, and Gwyneth, here I come!

Gone Round

The hub is crazy. He thinks I’m too thin. Too thin? He must be blind – if I get any bigger he’d have to roll me out of the door! Alex now refers to me as the big circle and herself, the small circle. This makes the hub the extra large circle and our family a family or circles!

To make matters worse, I usually sleep late (think 4am kind of late). If you’ve ever tried working late nights, you’ll know just how hungry one can get at midnight and in the wee hours of down. I do, and that’s the reason the hub and I sit to dinner three times – the first at 6pm, the second, at midnight, and the third, at 3am or thereabouts.

Well, I say, this pigging out has got to stop. I may have to start reading diet pill reviews eventually bit before I do, I’m going to have a sit-down with the husband tonight and talk food. Teddy bears are cute, rotund; 26-year-old moms are a different story.

Kara texted: photos will be on tomorrow’s issue. Two pages, baby!  :)

There’s the hub’s clue right there to get his Sunstar copy. Alex is in a tizzy; she’s so excited she can’t keep still.  She can’t wait to see how our photoshoot turns out. So am I because while I’m certain I looked petrified and wooden, the little girl did great.

Today did not start right and probably won’t end right, either. I seldom have reasons to be down in the dumps these days but today was a major downer. Barely an hour after waking up, I cried truckloads and spent the entire day indulging my sadness by Wiki-hopping.
