March Fatness Days 23 & 24

Day 23 - Thursday

Motivation: I look like a sausage. I wore one of my pants that I thought could stretch out a little and it was A HORRIBLE MISTAKE.

Ate: Coconut latte, PB&J, saltines, 1 can of coke, 30oz of tea, 8oz water, tofu veg sandwich


Moved: 40 minutes of "extreme" yoga, which I call extreme because my balance was HORRIBLE and I was just falling over constantly and nearly hitting my head on things. I don't know what was up.

Felt: flabby!

Etc: I'm honestly wondering if the ONLY way to lose weight is to give up all carbs and fat forever and run 20 miles a day. I hate my body.

Day 24 - Friday

Motivation: Wait, am I losing weight?

Ate: Indian food! Mmmmm (channa pindi, dal tudka, pakoras, roti), can of coke, 30oz tea, 24oz of water, chickpea pancakes and maple syrup, popcorn and soda at the movies, mini-corn dogs! Fridays are always a mess for me because I tend to eat as if it's two whole days, just from how much I end up being awake.


Moved: I almost didn't! I "took a nap" at noon and didn't wake up until 8:30. I ended up just doing my default 10 minute quickie work-out to knock something out.

Felt: not as fat as yesterday somehow?

Etc: I weighed myself and i'm 174lbs for the second time this week. If this sticks through April 1, then I will have actually lost 5lbs this month! Which is nuts because a week ago I was up to 181 and convinced I suck at life.

Cold Feet update + Birthday trip pictures

Image
Well, I obviously didn't make the May 1st deadline for Cold Feet's release. I've instead decided on the 10th (psst, you can pre-order the kindle here!), just so it's still available before I have my author event. I've finished all the edits and now I'm just waiting for the files to be approved and all that.

Other than that, my life's been mostly taken up by hobbling around awkwardly. My birthday was the 20th of April so I took my friend to Germany with me and had a lot of fun right up until I fell down some stairs and sprained my ankle.

Ugh.

It's been two weeks and it still hurts! My foot is still slightly swollen! I still have to hobble and work's been miserable, since part of my job is walking around a lot delivering stuff. Booo.

Other than that, though, Germany was pretty nice. Berlin was your typical big, dirty city, but it had some really amazing history. Munich was lovely, even though two of the four days we were there ended up being holidays …

----- Day 30 - Thursday
Motivation: Thank god this is almost over.

Ate: Latte, tea, kobucha, a handful of Fritos, fries and a falafel sandwich.

Moved: Again, I didn't really. It's not pain, I just got real depressed. I ran some errands, but probably didn't walk more than two miles total.

Felt: Junky.

Etc: I've failed in my March Fatness plans, but hopefully my body's changed enough to motivate me to keep going.

So you are an unloveable piece of garbage

Image
I’m thirty-five, divorced, childless, lacking any romantic prospects, overweight, and—most importantly—ugly. This isn't me being insecure and sad, this is my life, and since the advice for writers always seems to be, "write what you know" I'm going to write here about what I know: being ugly. I’m guessing you were drawn to the title of this blog post because you’re ugly too. After all, why would an attractive person pause long enough to read something aimed at us repulsive chunks? They have better things to do, like other attractive people.


Whether or not you’re an unloveable piece of garbage for some or all of the same reasons as me, you can be certain that I understand where you’re coming from. I’m not going to lie to you or spout platitudes in the hopes that you’ll spontaneously see yourself differently despite your years of being ignored, ridiculed, insulted, and forcibly celibate. I’m not here to insist you’re attractive in that way that suggests I’m only sayin…
