This morning I weighed in at 208! Woohoo! You may be saying to yourself, well, Tamara, that is a higher weight than the previously reported 205 pounds. Why are you doing a happy dance? … You know how I’m all like, “I’m going to be totally real with y’all on this here blog,” all the … [Read more…]
One of the fun things about having a weightloss blog is that I get to share the weirdest, strangest things that are associated with losing a large amount of fat. I was a big girl. Like I’ve said on a number of occasions, I don’t have a problem with big, I have a problem with … [Read more…]
This was a straight-up, solid week. I’m not impressed with the quantity of workouts, but I am pleased with my nutrition and that I actually got out on more than two occasions to haul my tail around the block a few times.

I’m not sure a Seattlite who does not ride horses in any capacity should be sporting a cowboy hat while … [Read more…]
