My mother being also overweight and wanting to ‘do like I did and lose some of this weight’, we regularly chat about it, share tips and magazine articles, etc. One thing that I have noticed, though, is that she also very regularly mentions that both of us are the same (i.e. we gain on weight […]

Originally, I took a day off to attend a series of speeches about Elizabethan theatre, but things turned out differently than I thought, and I found myself unexpectedly home for the afternoon without anything planned. Since “nothing to do” tends to mean “whee, let’s eat something!” in my case, I decided to keep myself busy […]

Last week, as a belated Christmas gift from several family members, I got a deep freezer. It was something I had wanted for a long time, but wasn’t able to afford; besides, having lived for part of these past two years in a very cramped student room, I just didn’t know where I’d put a […]

A friend of mine posted this piece of wisdom on her blog a few days ago, and I felt like I had to share:

It seems to be a given on many blogs I tour, and on the forums I browse as well: almost every single woman there will sooner or later complain about PMS and the weird cravings it induces. I’ve been at overcoming my bad habits and replacing them by healthy ones since 2005, so I’ve […]

It’s neither the first nor the last time that I blog about food at the office, but this tile I thought about it in a different way.
Where I work is not the worst place when it comes to sweets. We tend to regularly have them in the house, so to say, but we don’t have […]

I know I’ve already mentioned it a few times on this blog: I’m quite sensitive to cold and to changes of temperature. Losing weight has not contributed to improving that in the slightest. On the contrary: I’m of those people who are still at ease with long sleeves and a cardigan in a room heated […]

Recently, a thread with this title appeared on the 3FC boards, and the answers posted in it were quite interesting and enlightening.
How did we get so fat? How did I? Honestly, I don’t know. I wasn’t a pudgy child when I was very young, but I started getting a little belly and gradually putting on […]
