In Which Fatso Is In Pain. Again.

Another week, another quiet week, blog-wise. I could make excuses, but I’m not gonna. There’s not a lot going on. My collarbone is still sore, and I’ve still got that pulled muscle in my left arm, and neither seem to be getting much better, to be perfectly honest. I don’t know what to do. My [...]

Weekly Weigh-In: July 20, 2010 and Sugar Doll Blogger Award

29st 2lbs -5lb (2.27kg) – 263lbs (119.29kg) to go I just can’t even explain what’s going on here. I Tracked. I didn’t eat too much junk. What little junk I did eat was Pointed and included in my daily Points. I didn’t exercise as much as I’d like, okay, but I got to the gym [...]

In Which Fatso Is A Winner

Two very exciting things arrived in the mail for me today. First was my confirmation that I am a student again! I have been sending things back and forth with The Open University, and starting in October, I’m going to be (in addition to whatever is happening at the time) studying a BA (Honours) English [...]

In Which Fatso Is Recharged

When I went to the gym yesterday, I – gasp! – didn’t want to listen to Lady GaGa. So I put on Jesse McCartney instead. It’s summer! It’s practically tradition by this point! Even now, I’m like, chair-dancing to it. Music makes such a difference to how I work out. I spent 15 minutes on [...]

In Which Fatso Shakes Her Fist At Technology

I used to think I was pretty good at this technology lark. I was the go-to girl when things wouldn’t print at the Topic, for example (because Richard refused to be treated like a computer technician, basically), but lately, with my website being hacked and all, I’m very blah about the whole thing. I went [...]

In Which Fatso Is Confused

First things first: last night, I managed to walk on the treadmill for 30 minutes, non-stop. I think this is amazing, because last month, I found it difficult to last 10 minutes all at once. I walked for 1.21 miles without stopping. The last time I managed that was I don’t know when. (The last [...]

In Which Fatso Ponders Interview Clothes

So, I have a job interview on Friday in Glasgow. It sounds, from the description, to be just what I used to do (minus the designing of the advertisements and the proofreading and the typesetting, but anyway, I digress) and I would be thrilled to get it, but… I have a job interview on Friday. [...]

In Which Fatso Pontificates

There are a couple of things that shaving my head have taught me: 1) Shaving my head is never a good idea unless I have really bad head lice, which I didn’t. 2) No matter how much I tell myself it sort of suits me, it never really does. 3) My ears sort of stick [...]

In Which Fatso Inhales Her Food

The above pictures at the little Magic Pot thingers that have Sweetcorn, Sweet Pepper and Courgette seeds in them! It said, “leave somewhere warm, frost-free, and out of direct sunlight,” so I figured that my windowsill would be the perfect place for them, since I hardly ever open my bedroom curtains and blind. There’s never [...]

In Which Fatso Contemplates Detox

Now, I’ve read dozens of times, probably more, that detox is “scientifically proven to do bugger all” (I may have paraphrased that, I may not) but to be perfectly honest, I feel better after detox. Let me tell you a story of my first detox: Back in 2006, I got a job in Swords, County [...]
