Small Victory

April 1, 2012

Last Monday, I woke up to my alarm clock and rolled over as usual to grab my phone and check my email before even wiping the crusties out of my eyes. Typically I just delete all the junk mail and then flag other emails to follow up on after I've at least brushed my teeth. ...

Flying When Overweight

April 26, 2011

One of the top questions I get emails about doesn't have to do with diet or exercise, it has to do with what to expect when being fuller figured and flying on an airplane. I completely understand the anxiety of the situation. We've heard horror stories, and even famous people like Kevin Smith aren't immune (as ...

Non-Scale Victories: March Edition

03.26.2011

My primary goal on this Skinny Emmie journey is to be able to live a functionally fit lifestyle. This means no more huffing and puffing up stairs, no more aches and pains, no more straining to be able to move in my day-to-day life without getting exhausted. The past couple of days, I’ve been busy with …

Fat Travel Woes (or “Woah’s”)

09.21.2010

Hola from Miami! I’m traveling for work this week, and was reminded that every time I travel, I want to write a post about traveling while overweight. I used to have tons of anxiety before flights.

Quite a bit of commotion this weekend on Twitter and in the rest of the social media stratosphere (I’m a marketer, remember? Totally a fan of social media) having to do with director Kevin Smith getting asked to get off a Southwest Airlines plane because of his size (maybe). I typically stay out of any sort …

Update on Jet Plane…

11.09.2009

So, after my freak out last night, some of you have shown concern- LOL. I’m not lying, I did have a good amount of anxiety this morning. I just sucked it up and dealt with it. I thought I’d give a quick update while I have Wi-Fi at Panera (grabbing a quick lunch) Flight 1: packed …

Leaving on a jet plane…

So, I got a couple emails from people asking where my posts have been for this week. I was traveling last week for my new job: Knoxville, Nashville, Cincinnati and Indianapolis. I was very glad that I stayed on my food plan and didn’t have any hiccups. Eating on the road is not fun, nor does …
