Unhealthy dieting is not the only way to lose weight, though.

I'm finally writing notes to folks who sent holiday cards to my mom and who don't know she has passed. Gah. A couple are relatively easy as I know the people, I just hadn't had their address to contact them at the time. The third is a distant cousin of hers who I have never met. I know they weren't close but mom kept in touch and tried to maintain a relationship there.

Oh Suzi, that's so nice that you're taking the time to do that. I know it must be hard.

It's the only way to lose weight below your body's natural weight set point, though.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I'm a little giddy because I am having dinner tonight with one of my favorite people (an ex-colleague) and she just wrote that she "can't have sushi right now. :)"
See, I just watched my pregnant friend gorge on sushi a few days ago, so that wouldn't ping me.

I don't know what the undercooked/raw seafood link to pregnancy is, but with a couple of miscarriages, she might be being extra careful.

I swam!
I really don't have a good idea of what I look like now. I'm mostly going by how I feel, which is much stronger. And I can see my collarbones. And actually feel veins under my skin, which is just weird (last time I was this weight, I still had teenage babyfat padding, so this is definitely new.)

You don't eat the raw stuff for mercury and other possible crap. But other types of sushi are just fine.
