When you’re not fat and a hot guy in a BMW asks you where Dunkin’ Donuts is when you’re walking your dog, you no longer assume he’s asking because you’re fat, so of course you know where it is. No, he asks because the dog at the end of the leash illustrates you live in the hood. And the smile on your face says you love iced coffee. So you tell him, finish your walk,...
It's been that kind of week.
So I totally forgot to take a pic. But imagine, if you will, a turkey burger and some kale chips, and that’s what I had for dinner.

Umm, I apologize if you want to scrape your tongue off and do an entire body detox after you read this, but… you know… blame Tara. She’s the one who sent it to me.

Sweet Potato-Tempeh Hash →
This recipe (I substituted tofu for tempeh) and this one were the inspirations for the other night’s tofu/quinoa extravaganza.

I’d also use egg whites in lieu of the fake egg stuff.

My conscious is totally feeling better since she posted about the MS Climb to the Top of the Rock! :) Two of my close family friends are living...
I die.
I think I was just filmed to be an extra in Will Ferrell’s new movie.

“Mr. Berman, who is of normal weight, said his inspiration for the show came from his grandmother, a short, plump woman named Deb “who carried herself like a supermodel.”
“I always liked the idea of a woman who doesn’t feel on the inside like she looks on the outside,” he said. “I thought, ‘How could I dramatize that type of person?’”
This is how I got fat. I didn’t (often) feel like...
Is it snack time yet?!
The 120 minutes I allot myself between lunch and snacktime are going unusually slowly today. My Luna bar is tempting me from the edge of my desk.
“Eat me! Eat me! I won’t tell anyone you didn’t wait two hours between meals!”
