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

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

Oh, Suzi. That's no fun at all.

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.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I bought fancy salt at TJs today -- Himalayan salt crystals that came in a grinder jar. And they're PINK!!!

I have those too! So pretty. But I still don't know how you find sea salt in the Himalayas.

Heh. That was my reaction, too! But the label very carefully does not say "sea."

sarameg, I am sure you're looking awesome and toned from all of that swimming. I envy you with the pool so accessible.

Mine does. Though it also says it's "primordial" so maybe things were a lot different then. (I picked it up at TJ Maxx as a stocking stuffer.)
