That’s huge!! I love meditation so much. Sticking to any kind of new change is so hard, and you’re doing 3 things! Congratulations!!! 

Congrats to Mr. Cheers! That’s wonderful!

My doc recently told me to steer clear of saturated (animal) fats, so I will just have to give it up anyway. I’ve had issues with eating meat my whole life, so I’m not too worried. It tastes great, but yes, the animals are sweet and deserve so much more.

My favorite was not a regular egg and cheese, but a Cuban egg and cheese at a tiny old school diner in Chelsea around 25th and 10th. They used those sweet Cuban bolillo rolls, fried the eggs but left them nice and runny, and used lots of yellow American cheese. They were huge, ridiculously cheap, you could put their…

Sausage is always the best! Unless the place doesn’t serve pork and they get that weird beef sausage. 

In VT... white people food. Either a roasted free range chicken, a pasture raised organic beef burger or heritage pork. Kale, sweet corn and tomatoes. There will be maple syrup either cooked on the meat or used in a dressing on the veg. With a Creemee (weird soft serve ice cream). It’ll all taste great, but there will…

And some sauerkraut on top. 

No worries! And I’m happy to report I did not stop at DD’s.

Those women need a new lawyer, stat. 

That’s great you cut out the pop! That shit’s the worst, and chemically designed to make you addicted to it.

I get that. We’re just trapped at home, watching tv most of the time. Not much else to do but eat. It was definitely the highlight of many of my days for much of this past year. My job and healthplan offered a nutrition counseling program, and I was so happy to get into it. I’ve finally got a handle on it, but fuck…

Not to mention the NFL can’t even pay the cheerleaders minimum wage despite raking in billions, and they love to ignore violence against women. They are a shit organization through and through. 

So much this. Most rapists can be super nice people, until they’re not. 

As I have aged, it’s become the opposite. I will stuff whatever is in front of me, no matter how gross it might be, but especially carbs and sweet stuff. And the sugar makes me want even more! Another gnarly loop. Here’s hoping all our stress levels improve this year. 

I hope Bill Maher dies from some sort of heart disease that is normally associated with obesity. I can’t stand him.

I never had a real eating disorder, but I have come to realize I have sort of disordered eating. I definitely stress eat, and I also sometimes don’t eat when I’m stressed. When I was in high school, I went down to 104 lbs on my 5'6" body. Everything hurt. And I didn’t do it on purpose, I just was so depressed I’d get…

Yes to swimming!!! I LOVE swimming, though for years I avoided it because of a physical issue I have that I didn’t want anyone to see. Which was a shame. Before the pandemic, I was swimming a couple times a week, and it was amazing. The days I swam I felt mentally and physically stronger. I can’t do the proper…

The thing that always gets me about that pic on the right, is that whoever photoshopped it put her eyes at different heights. It’s unsettling. 

I like hate watch both of them and make fun of everything they do. They are absolute caricatures. My partner says Dana is shaped like a dreidel, which I find hilarious.

Yes but you get the self-satisfaction that comes with living life on the edge! Life is thrilling!
