Blending In or Standing Out?

01.18.2010

I had an interesting predicament last week. I was given the great opportunity to attend Social Fresh Nashville, a great social media conference. Seeing as social media marketing is both a professional and personal hobby for me, I was really looking forward to it. Mixing and mingling with others who shared the same interests? Awesome! Or not. Don’t get me …

Temptation

12.13.2009
Holiday Party 2009 122

“Opportunity knocks only once, but temptation leans on the doorbell” – Unknown Oy friends. It’s Sunday early afternoon and I just work up a couple of hours ago from a deep sleep. Well, let me clarify that: A deep, alcohol and carb induced sleep. *sigh* I get comments both on this blog and in real life saying …

Update on Jet Plane…

11.09.2009

Weigh in | 10.29.09

Goose egg. Zero. Zilch. Nada. I’m traveling the next 3 weeks, so I was really hoping to have some loss this week. I am going to do my damnedest keep my food strict on the road, but it’s super hard when you’re unfamiliar with the area and don’t have all the options you do at home. I really want to hit …

Skinny Emmie Rant: Bathrooms

10.23.2009
Bathroom Stalls

This might be a weird thing to rant about, but can I tell you how much I hate bathroom stalls? I mean, HATE. Listen y’all, I’m a big girl. Thankfully not as big as I once was, but still way bigger than a lot of people. One of the most disgusting things about being big? Having …

Weigh In | 10.22.09

Gayla Bentley Traditional Tunic

So, after goose-egging last week (that means a big-fat-zero pounds lost, kids), I thought I might be losing momentum or my body was going to go into one of its revolts it sometimes has, where it just plain refuses to lose weight. Hopes weren’t high this week. I was super busy this past week and …
