Worked out that is...and I gotta tell you, I don't know what stopped me for the last few weeks. I LOVE the way I feel afterward, and even during it feels good. I mean, seriously... But anyway, I woke up this morning and did my positive affirmations (which I'd ... http://angie.buddyslim.com/2009/02/09/why-did-i-ever-stop/ Hey buddies, I'm freaking exhausted today. After a morning argument (silly and pointless, but emotionally draining) with the hubby and running all over the countryside this afternoon, I'm spent. I didn't drink enough water today, but I'm trying to catch up. This could be why I'm freaking exhausted and cranky--I think ... http://angie.buddyslim.com/2009/02/09/checking-inand-who-knows-about-flirty-girl-fitness/ First, let me say THANK YOU to my supportive buddies. Yesterday, I met two of my three goals. I drank my water and didn't eat after dinner. I didn't, however, write down everything I ate. I wrote it down till after lunch, and then stopped. So, back on track today. Goals of ... http://angie.buddyslim.com/2009/02/07/day-2-again/ Hello buddies, It is with a heavy heart that I begin this blog today, as it's time to admit it. I'm offtrack.

I cannot allow ... http://angie.buddyslim.com/2009/02/05/admission-of-guiltback-to-basics/ Hello Buddies, As y'all know, I've been struggling a bit in my process. I've found myself stagnating for awhile, and instead of stewing and falling completely off track, I have decided to work toward inspiring myself. At some point in my WL journey (at 240 lbs, to be exact), I had ... http://angie.buddyslim.com/2009/01/06/coming-out-of-the-closet-pics/ Hey buddies, I have found myself struggling for a week or so. I have had trouble staying on track and have not been working out. I know this is a tempory situation, but I have decided that I need to "nip it in the bud" before it becomes a serious issue. I ... http://angie.buddyslim.com/2008/12/17/struggle-be-gone/ Hey Buddies, y'all know I'm a freelance writer. Well, I recently got an assignment to write about a fitness and weight loss website, so you KNOW I thought of BuddySlim first! I contacted Dr. Marc, who was kind enough to allow me an interview. The article (with interview) is published and ... http://angie.buddyslim.com/2008/12/14/i-interviewed-dr-marc/ Hey buddies, I get this newsletter in my email from Dotti (of Weight Watcher's fame) once a week or something. I don't always read it, but today I did for some reason. Anyway, there was an article in it that I found especially inspirational and useful. Thought I'd pass it ... http://angie.buddyslim.com/2008/12/07/a-bit-of-inspiration-that-helped-me/ Hey Buddies! So I've been in a size 14 for awhile now, which is awesome since I started out in a 24 (which was even tight at one point, I'm embarrassed to admit.) At any rate, since I seem to be stagnating a bit, I've decided to set a new ... http://angie.buddyslim.com/2008/11/30/new-goal/ Hey buddies! Things have been crazy. If anyone (besides Jo!) remembers me, I'm a freelance writer. Well, awhile back, I talked about how I was going to get off my butt and get my career on track (because I was NOT a freelance writer at that time, even though I ... http://angie.buddyslim.com/2008/11/18/still-aliveand-late-halloween-pics/
