And where did he learn that, hmm?
From the neighbor dogs when he goes to taunt them.
Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

I am starting nightly sit-ups to deal with the belly.
Sit-ups are great! Especially the bicycling ones. But they won't reduce the size of your belly, they'll just give you strong ab muscles underneath. Sorry.
Hello, Alibelle!
And congratulations, Anne! BTW, I saw your LJ post and I think that I might have beta'd that NBB story.

Everyone I'm dealing with at my place of employment is losing their fucking minds.
I am clearly not deferential enough to power. CLEARLY.

Wait, you work here?
Seriously, today has amped up the crazy-cakes to whole new levels. Instead of crazy-cakes, we're like crazy-pie-baked-in-a-cakes.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
msbelle, IME, low-carb is the way to go. But I know low-carb isn't for everyone, so I don't want to seem like I'm "pushing" it. I can't do the really strict under-25-grams-a-day anymore, but keeping carbs to 100 grams a day or less is totally do-able for me. The belly fat, I think, comes from insulin resistance plus too much sugar. How much sugar and/or bread is too much, YMWV. For me, no bread and very little sugar. But that's enough for me to lose 3-5 pounds a week with a little exercise. The last couple weeks of March, I lost 11 pounds. Then my period happened and I fell into a bowl of corn chips and had trouble getting out again. Back on track as of today. I want to lose a hundred pounds, and I'm going to do it by November, or damn close.

Stronger ab muscles means the fat sits better -- looking rounded instead of slack.
Speaking of exercise, has anyone ever dealt with an organization called Team in Training from the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society? They help you train (and fund-raise) for a marathon or hike. Sounds useful as a commitment device, anyway.

They work with a few charities - I did the Marine Corp Marathon training with them about 10 years ago for t memfault some AIDS organization. Legit, and pretty well known/organized.

They're everywhere in the exercise world. My brother did a stint with them when he was training for some mini-triathlons, liked them well enough.
