The Skinny

I had no intention of exposing my bare midriff here for three weeks,

but life has been a little busy.

We hosted two parties in one day

then jumped in the car and drove to Oregon

where we all got sick

and couldn't wait to come home

so we could crash for a week and recover.

The good news is that the head cold

on top of the stomach flu

which triggered a migraine

and sent me to the ER

for two bags of IV fluid and a wicked drug cocktail

helped me reach my weight loss goal.

Hip, hip, hooray for

diet, exercise, and viruses

or

homecooking, housework, and life.

Either way

I'm feeling much better

and looking better than ever.

Aidan told me that I'm fitting into my body

and I couldn't agree more.

I just wish I could find a pair of jeans that fit as well as my skin

and time to post more about our paleo experiment.

But to be honest, I'd rather wear running pants

and sprint around my neighborhood,

then repeat a few rounds of squats, crunches, and push-ups

before heading back to the kitchen

to cook some meat and vegetables.

That's the skinny.
