go carb tripper





Go Carb Tripper, Go!
.....................................
Here she comes, here comes Carb Tripper
She's a fatty on wheels
She's a fatty, and she's gonna be Tripping after something....


Eating with my "3rd coast choppers."

Feeling much better today....
Talked about my "plight" to some friends
"in real life" (as if blogging isn't real)
They assured me I am on the right track
and all that.....

I like that I didn't lose my integrity 
or self-respect this time around.
Or respond by acting a fool.

The shiny trinkets of doubt still catch my eye,
but I am learning to see them for what they are...
Little distractions, that are like that can of whipping cream in the fridge.
Calls your name late at night.
When you are hungry or vulnerable.
And tempts you....
And let you down time after time
After time.  

It never is what you think it will be.
Temptation comes in many forms.
It never is about the food alone.

Even if it's moldy.
Especially if it's moldy!

This just in:
The helmet and stuff is a photo*op with a neighbor's Moped.
But at least I could ride one this year!

As opposed to last year!

Hope you are getting ready for a happy weekend!
It's aboot time, eh?

  1. I personally am always ready for a happy weekend. You look good in the goggles and helmet. You look like a skinny biker chick.

  3. Love the helmet. Where's the wheels? Pictures? No moped or Hog? :)
    Have a wonderful weekend. You deserve it.

  8. Hey - wonderful, Miss Bernie!
    LoCarb worked for me....and many, many others.
    It just makes sense.
    No sweets on a diet.
    No bread on a diet.
    No heavy sticky starches on a diet.
    Atkins.com is a great resource!

    Good luck, Bernie - you can email me any time I can help.
    ps the first few days are the hardest!

  9. How funny, I was just watching Speed Racer last night on tv.

    "It never is what you think it will be.
    Temptation comes in many forms.
    It never is about the food alone."

    Wow, that is sooo true. If we could just remember that "in the moment" it would make it so much easier.

  10. My husband almost bought me a moped last summer! It didn't happen. He's too much of a scared-y cat w/me :) Good thing too - we moved into a small apartment and I don't know what we would have done w/the thing.

  13. One day I'll be able to ride on the back of a motobike without worrying that I'll make it tip backwards! Amazing the things you take for granted when you're slim! :o)

    Hope you're feeling a little better and you have a terrific weekend!

  17. Kimberly -
    I am not trying to be cryptic....
    You are the third one who says that I am
    So I think maybe I should to be more....
    specific? Less..... general?
    I'm simply having a mid-life crisis,
    and struggling to find the words.
    Sometimes it's all I can to do get by.
