This morning Xander and I went for a nice long walk with the dogs, for a little photosynthesis, as he called it. He grabbed the dogs, I grabbed my camera and off we went.

Early this morning Xander and I decided to take the dogs to the park for a walk.  We haven’t been to De Twee Heuvels before and it’s nearby so we went to check it out.  There isn’t a lot there, some paths and a lot of people with their dogs.  I assume it’s probably a lot nicer when the weather …

The map was created with my favorite handy dandy My Tracks application for Android. Today my husband and I went on a nice long bike ride around Rotterdam.  He was finally over his throat infection, I was over my minor cold and the sun was shining again… it was time to get out there!  Initially we planned on a short …

My husband took this photo of me at about 8am in the morning.  We left the house sometime around 7:30am to go for a short ride while the wind was low and the sun was out a bit. It was so peaceful and lovely, I was in heaven!  I’m so glad that we are both early birds and enjoy doing …

This morning I went off to the city center to meet up with the ladies from the Rotterdam Stitch’n’Bitch group.  I had gotten together with them on Tuesday evening as well and decided to go see who is there on Saturday mornings.  It was busier today, with 10-12 people as opposed to the four of us who were there on …

Now that I have finally broken the 50 lbs lost point and Project Fatass has made it through winter, it’s time to move on to another goal.  I won’t say what it is because I’m still too embarrassed by the numbers, but it’s 8 lbs away.  Sound easy, right?  Yeah, not really.  Having already done 50 lbs another 8 lbs …

One of the things from my 101 List that I’ve been most keen to do is start riding my bike again.  I’ve not ridden my bike in the last number of years because I never found it comfortable.  To put it bluntly, I’ve been too fat and self-conscious. We bought it about 5 years ago because I wanted to join …

Yesterday morning we woke up and it was foggy and grey. Not exactly what we hoped for on a Sunday morning but it would have to do.  I had a lot of housework that I was avoiding, so I asked my husband how he’d feel about going for a drive so I could take some photos.  He was up for …

So the PMS monster rears it’s ugly head again. It’s definately one of those days that I hate being a woman. One of the worst things is trying to resist the urge to lose myself in a sea of chocolate. Now, I love chocolate every day of the month but during those 3-4 days I crave it like a, shit… …

the-diet Weigh-In Week 5 Week 1 -> 0 lbs lost Week 2 -> 2 lbs lost Week 3 -> 2 lbs lost Week 4 -> 2 lbs GAINED Week 5 -> … *drumroll* 7 lbs LOST!!! Total Lost -> 9 lbs Holy shit!! *Happy Dance* I certainly wasn’t expecting that when I got up this morning! Although I did try …

I really need to get a new memory or start writing things down. Every day I see/hear/read/think things and think oh I must write about this in my blog. Of course once blog time comes around the memories of these things are nowhere to be found.Oh, Oh! I remember one!! Ok, I got another good blast of “You never REALLY …
