Does anyone else get excited to plan a dinner menu for the week? No, just me? Alright then. It has been a month. Stratas and barbecue and burgers, oh thighs. It is time. Healthy eating time, that is. If I lose ten pounds a week from now until June I can still hit my goal….

Mrs.Who?
Did anyone else have an identity crisis when they tied the knot? I can no longer identify as “single plump waitress living in friend’s attic with constipated cat”. No wonder I didn’t get much action on E-Harmony. Just kidding. Mostly. The truth is, I spent many years not quite fitting in with the people around…
New Year, Same Me
Angela, December 31- Up a few pounds because, well, cheese. Wondering when things will finally come together because life hasn’t progressed by standards of the “American Dream”. Also, I live in an attic with my constipated cat and rang in New Years on the couch wearing teddy bear pajamas and commenting on how good people…
A Weighty Dilemma
I feel like a drug dealer. I work in a restaurant known for it’s 1,000+ calorie desserts. Most menu choices are over the daily recommended calorie intake..for one meal or one piece of cake! Gravy, cream sauce, extra cheese..you want it, we got it. As I learn more about the obvious link between nutrition and…
Choosing Health
“My name is Angela, and I’m here for the muffins.” That was my opening line. I don’t even like muffins. I was sitting uncomfortably in a room full of smiling strangers. Mostly women. We all had little plates of snacks, although this wasn’t the cheesy goodness I was used to from my Pampered Chef days….

You Are What You Eat
I always thought this was kind of a stupid saying. Something naturally thin people (ones who actually prefer lettuce to chocolate) said to make you feel bad about actually enjoying a magical place with Golden Arches. I had a credit for an audio book with Audible (they sucked me in again with a free two-month…
Angela: Unsweetened Oval Pescatarian
I should never be allowed to watch documentaries. In the past week I have decided to go “oval pescatarian” (auto corrected to Oval Rastafarian. I love dem eggs, mon!). Oval pescatarians eat all vegetarian options plus eggs and seafood. I will try to stay mainly vegetarian (and actually not eat a ton of dairy, either)…
Dang it, Proper Pie
Daniel and I have broken up. I celebrated the close of my 21-Day Daniel Fast at James River Winery with Ash Cap. It was delightful sipping a sweet red blend on a porch swing overlooking Route 1. There was live music and a surprising amount of children. I am free! So, before I head straight…
