Tweaking Diet Schmiet

Posted by Loricious on 9/22/2010 in Main with 2 Comments

I’m going through a massive organizational overhaul here. It is an extension of the newer look, easier navigation, better label/categories, etc.

I’m going to try to stay away from actual posting on the main blog and tracking it all on the new page “Changing the Face of Diet Schmiet.”

Just so you know.

Experiencing technical annoyances with no time left before work. Will fix soon!...

Another try

I'd really like to start posting actual pics. Here is another shot... (I deleted my previous attempt...). Wow, it worked. A whole new world just opened up for me. Be prepared to be bombarded with garden talk. How...riveting....

How To Post

In case people don't know how to post, I'm writing something along those lines. You have to be registered. Do that. Then, right by the register location, there is a login location. Log in. Then you should come to WordPress with different things you can do along the top of the page. Choose Write. Write what...

Guest Post over at Hollaback!

I wrote a post about how to re-do your blog over at Hollaback Health. Great group of women over there; enjoy not only my post but everything else they have out. Excellent resource for bloggers! ...

Stages of Acceptance – A Fat Girl in a Skinny World

Over at Hollaback Health, there was a post about Say Yes To The Dress: Big Bliss. It triggered a lot of resentment about big women singled out for being big and then subsequently exploiting and fetishizing fat women. I was in the minority in my disagreement. Mostly because my knee jerk reaction was...

Losing Faith in Science

Frankly, eating clean is not easy when you are ruled by instant gratification and a strong desire for bagels and cream cheese. Lately, I've been really making an effort to eat "clean", meaning cutting way back on heavily processed items. If I want bread, I make it. If I want rice, I...

Eating the Emptiness

A post written during a lunch hour last Friday: ------------------------------------------------------------------- Although this is sort of ironic to even post about this, let me tell you one of the things that I absolutely must improve on: negative self talk. I still have moments of self ridicule, of treating my body so poorly despite the fact that only moments...

Oh, me buttocks

They be sore. I started yoga again this last Monday. My work offers classes at a reasonable price and I've desperately wanted to do it again but never got up the momentum to bust out the mat at home. The result: my tush is achy. EVERYTHING is achy, more than a jog...

Changing of the seasons

I don't know about anyone else, but once that great big ball of fire fails to be up before I do, experience a serious lack of hauling myself out of bed before 6:00 a.m. Mind: I've been up and at 'em between 5 and 5:45 if only to putz around the house, clean a...

Sorry, I’m Not Sorry

Now that little message can be construed with a variety of tones. The first one that comes to mind is "bitchy." In your face. I just poured hot coffee all over you but since I loathe your existence, I'm sorry I'm not sorry. A *bit* much for ol' Loricious here, since the anger...

Here we go ’round the mullberry bush…

My life has been in a slight whirlwind of activity and I've let myself fall to the wayside in terms of nuturing myself and my delicate psyche. It's easy to lose sight of the goal when it passes you by; in my case a wedding and the subsequent BACK on those silly 5 stinking...

Recipe Review: Zucchini Bread

Everyone agrees that this is one of the best zucchini bread recipes around. My neighbors have raved, Mr. H wolfs down his fair share, and my brother wanted the recipe. I adapted it from the tried and true Better Homes and Gardens cookbook. Zucchini Bread Preheat 350 Ingredients: 1.5 c. all purpose flour 1 t. ground cinnamon (optional) 0.5 t. baking...
