Sleepy and Scattered

May 2, 2013

It’s after midnight, and I’m finally home after a long and productive day.  I helped a friend move into his new place, and I got a lot accomplished for myself as well.  Now I’m exhausted.  I still don’t feel 100%, but I realize that it’s probably because I’m running on empty. I know it’s important [...]

A Breakfast Question For You…

April 30, 2013

I’m still not feeling 100%, but I felt good enough for some treadmill intervals yesterday.  There’s more cardio on the agenda this morning too, but I’m making breakfast first. Most of us agree that breakfast is the undisputed meal of champions, right?  We know that we’re supposed to eat it to get our day off [...]

Friend Makin’ Mondays: ABC’s in 2013

April 29, 2013

I don’t know if anyone noticed, but I didn’t post much last week because I was sick.  I slept for twelve hours Friday night and did the same thing Saturday night, and I still don’t feel 100%. I did make it to the gym, school and to my Weight Watchers meeting last week, and I’m [...]

A Question For Weight Watchers Members

April 23, 2013

I’ve missed my last two meetings.  I have good reasons that would probably sound like excuses (one regarding an underground fire and one regarding my last trip,) but this post isn’t about that.  It’s about the fact that I miss my meetings when I don’t attend them. I’ve stepped away from Weight Watchers twice, but [...]

Greetings From Colorado

April 18, 2013

After a long day of travel delays, I finally arrived in Denver.  I was exhausted, but when this little person ran up to me smiling and jumped into my arms, I couldn’t have been happier. Now it’s time for some sleep because the rest of the week will be jam packed!  Until later, friends……   [...]

Let’s Talk About Church, Or Things You Didn’t Think You’d Hear Kenlie Say…

April 17, 2013

There are days in which I feel like discussing things here that are totally unrelated to weight-loss, and today is one of those days.  I tend to work through feelings as I post them here so today I feel like sharing something personal that I don’t normally discuss. If you’ve been here long, you may [...]

Making Memories and Other Stuff

April 16, 2013

When I began writing this I lived in New York.  I still love New York, but I’ve been making some pretty awesome memories in New Orleans.  Living in the heart of this city has definitely opened my eyes to things that I never knew I missed before.  I love being close enough to spend the [...]

Common Sense and Resentment

April 12, 2013

Last week I was talking with a friend about the quiet struggles I have faced as someone who needs to lose an incredible amount of weight.  It seems as though many of us reach that first giant milestone before allowing ourselves to hover around the same weight.  I’m not the only one in the world [...]
