What Is I'm Gon' Do?

Well.. since I have placed a cease and desist order on my M.O.M.D search (that's Man Of My Dreams if you didn't know), I was thinking to myself that I really need a hobby. Not one of those things I would do every now and again, but a bonafide, real deal hobby. So I have been tossing around a few ideas until one sticks.

The first few things I considered were in the garment making arena such as quilting and knitting, but then I thought why don't I just stamp "Old Maid in The Making" on my behind.

So moving on.. Gourmet cooking. Just enough for me to learn how to use things like truffle oil and leeks and shit, but then someone who has burned themselves using a George Foreman grill should probably not spend more than 15 minutes at a time in the kitchen.

I then considered taking one of those online holistic healing courses or a seminar to tap into my psychic abilities (because I sometimes secretly think I'm like that psychic lady Silvia that's on the Montel Williams show), but that wouldn't work either because I still have yet to predict the winning Mega Million numbers.

So.. I am now really thinking of becoming a female body builder, but I would stop right before I form a muscle face and my breasts start to look like a spartan shield with nipples.

(ok.. maybe I need to ponder on this a little bit more.)

Sugar, Sugar...Ah Honey, Honey

Today is the first day of my self-imposed sugar challenge. I am going to limit my sugar intake to the recommended 40 grams a day.

Yes, sugar is my crack... so I'm sure I will be cravin' and feindin' all week. But since I have some serious weight loss goals in mind, it's time to s^%$ or get off the pot.

So..here we go. Day one challenge: get past the honey buns in the kitchen cabinet without shaking.
