Where's the Progress?

Today was a hungry day. I ate a lot. Bad choices. I need a tweak when I see my surgeon after Labor Day. No real workout, but I walked a little bit because I took the boys to see the King Tut exhibit in Times Square.

(Side note: I've spent more time in Times Square in the last year than I did in the entire three years I lived in New York. People who live in New York don't go to Times Square unless they're passing through on their way to the theater district or on the way to work. It really is ridiculously crowded there. So much so that I tucked a note with my cellphone number in each kid's pocket just in case I lost one of them.)

Here they are, watching the madness of Times Square from the (relative) serenity of the Broadway Lounge.

I am sooooo close to 60 down and my halfway point. Gilly, who was banded around the same time I was, is at 90 down. (YAY GILLY, you skinny bitch.) And you guys, she is *never* going to let me live it down that she is kicking.my.ass. Ugh.

  2. I think we all have hungry days and oddly enough they seem to happen around the same time! I ate cookies and crackers and tater tots...you name it today. Don't be embarassed, just look at it, accept it, and move on. We're all in this together, and we'll make it eventually, just some faster then others!!

  3. Ok...first of all, I have NEVER said I was kicking your ass! I had a LOT more to lose than you do, so comparatively, you're actually doing BETTER than I am! So shut it before I come over there and smack your skinny butt! :P

  6. look at your ticker missy! THATS where the progress is, it's not a race. If we could all get all lose at the same rate what fun would that be. Remember everyones journey is different.

  8. Hubby, kids and I were in Times Square 2 weeks ago. I posted about kind of a crappy experience with a deranged pedestrian, but had a lot of support from other people. Where is the Broadway Lounge? Would like to check it out next time we go to NY.
