"If neurotic is wanting two mutually exclusive things at one and the same time, then I'm neurotic as hell"

First things first- I'm obsessed with Sylvia Plath (hence her quote as the title of this post!).  

Ok now that I've gotten that out of the way- let's segway to the two mutually exclusive things that I want right now:

 I want to eat whatever I want, and I want to be skinny.  

Why is that so hard to have both?  

I have lost about 25 pounds (used to be 30...whoops), and now I just need to lose 15 more pounds to get to my goal weight.  

Ugh- but cookies. 

Ok- let's not think about that.

Cheese?

No.

I digress.

Voodoo Donuts- Downtown Portland.  I forget what kind this was.  Something with peanut butter.

 I feel like I am so close and I have already come so far!

Well, to be honest I hardly tried at all to lose those first pounds.

I'm a jerk, right? sorrynotsorry

Who wants to buckle down with me?

There are so many ideas out there (thanks, Pinterest!) to get started with.

I'm thinking a combo of kickboxing, running (gross), and yoga with clean-er, portion controlled eating.  Sound like a plan?

Who wants to join me?

Summer is coming so soon (thanks Pacific Northwest weather for the forecasted rain for the rest of the week!).  Just keep thinking, Shorts, dresses, bikinis, sunshine, river floats, boating, sunshine. Did I say sunshine yet? Sunshine!
