I'm just not sleeping enough...
You think I'm kidding - you must think I'm kidding, because if you know me, you know that I'm the one who gets to sleep in while hubby leaves the sanctity of our nice warm bed and rouses the troops for school.
But if you think I'm kidding, you're wrong.
See, there's a difference between high-quality sleep and whatever-it-is I'm getting, because there's no other way to explain this:

Ahhhh...Day 16 on the Juice Feast, and changes are afoot
I've noticed that my tummy is much flatter than usual. Which is good, as it was ... erm... NOT flat before.
But also bad, because of that pesky "Look! I've had two children!" flab of skin which wasn't helped by the emergency c-section..
I'm having the world's best sleep.
I'm also having serious doubts whether I can do this much longer. Of course, I had those doubts about a week ago, so...
In other news: I've developed quite a nice routi… Continue

Is it normal to be feeling colder than usual?
I'm peeing like crazy, my face looks thinner, my stomach is flatter... but my weight's gone up... what's up with that???
I've noticed that 2 days ago and today my skin (all the skin on my body) is flushed...like mild sunburn or when you use too much glycolic acid peel. It's not painful, just weird.… Continue

So I've decided to juice feast... any advice?
It's a big year for me. My company is about to incorporate, launch a national campaign, and expand exponentially, which means that I'm in the middle of some very large financial and personal decisions - I've got two li'l kiddos at home that I'm exceptionally committed to, and I don't like taking on debt. Period. So I need wisdom.
Lately I've felt strongly that the Lord wante… Continue

Ten Random facts about me you probably don't need to know that my peeps Rach asked for
Peeps being "the daughter I never had." or my third sister. Or my distant cousin or something like that...
Okay, so my good friend Rach tagged me with one of those memes. I'm not tagging anybody, because I'm a mean, old, poopy-head who has to raise her children and

On the Nature of Flaxmeal...
But one should never eat more than a single brownie in one sitting.
Too much flaxmeal at a single sitting has the collective power of senna tea and the sea-salt oral enema that so many of us remember from doing Master Cleanses.
One should abstain from gorging on blond brownies. Especially if one is in a public place.
Flaxmeal works quickly when consumed in large amounts.
*cough*

so...ummmm I've lost 6 pounds this week.
Anybody care to hazard a guess why? Not that I'm complaining -- except that I just bought a very nice pair of very expensive pants that are now literally falling off of me....
But actually, I'm thrilled.
Still I can't figure out why. I'm eating tons of nuts and fruit, and still eating a small amount of cooked food in the evening, so I'm not really sure why the sudden ramped up weight loss.
*shrugs*

Happy Christmakuh
So we're standing at the checkout, some time last week, with our huge passel of Hanukkah stuff - you know, candles, menorah, lots of gelt - too much, even(because, let's face it, I'm going to eat half of it when the kiddos aren't looking...) and a few Hanukkah books (read: several. More than several, if we're being honest).
Now, I live in the heart of whitey country. About the only white… Continue
