I've been doing pretty well at dieting, but I need to work on exercising more. I just always seem to find something more interesting to do whenever I plan some exercise time.

Plei, you stopped drinking sodas too, right?

I never did drink them much, and all I drink's the occasional diet one.

I did that and it became very unhealthy for me. I became too fixated on the numbers. How my clothes fit is a better indicator/motivator for me.

See, clothing fitting doesn't motivate me enough--it's too easy to slide back into bad habits. With weighing myself, I have a range in any given milestone area that I deem the Okay Range, and do the thing where I kind of average it out over the week, as it's going to vary some.

If I'm creeping to the upper ends, it's time to cut back on things again.

Plei! Guess what I'm about to watch?

Plei, did you get a package from me some weeks back?

Me, I'm trying to decide between more OC or more Life on Mars. I think the English will win.

A) JA is much more attractive now than he was in DA. Less pretty, but much more attractive.

B) it's weird hearing his voice come out of that boy's mouth.

Plei, did you get a package from me some weeks back?

Yes! And keep meaning to find my thank you cards. Sigh.

Lillian took one look and said, "On?"

Then she tried putting it on her legs as pants.

A) JA is much more attractive now than he was in DA. Less pretty, but much more attractive.

Totally.

A little wear around the edges helps.

PS, Lee, had you seen this? [link]

We don't keep a well-stocked bar--just some Jim, Jack & José and usually I keep a bottle of white zin chilled.

I love the way you worded this, Cashmere. And hey, you stock your bar better than we do. We generally have a bottle of Kahlua (which gets dipped into about three times a year) and whatever bottle of red wine we're working at the time.

Eating less and exercising more. Sadly. I changed my diet fairly radically, stopped snacking as much.

I'm with Maria. I want the magic pill. Or painless surgery with zero recovery time. I'm not fussy.

I love having a stocked liquor cabinet, even though I almost never drink anything but beer or wine at home.

From memory, because I'm lazy, I've got a couple of vodkas, tequila, Kahlua, Malibu, Sailor Jerry rum (won that in bar trivia), Fernet, raspberry pucker (someone left that here), Drambuie, Crown Royal, Jameson, Bacardi apple (my newest drug of choice), and Laphroaig. Oh, and Sail, I've still got some of that ponche left.

And honestly, occasionally I'll take a glass of Drambuie or something into the bath, but otherwise I almost never touch any of it. And even so, I'm sitting here plotting out what I'm missing. Gin, for starters.

They're very pretty, aren't they? JP is much more attractive than Sam.

Hey, did the bowling dress Kat and I bought ever fit Lillian?
