What a beautiful picture of you two! Today I posted about getting up at 445 am for my (second) (new) job in addition to grad school. What can I say...us ladies know how to work it!

Gosh, I think this is one of the toughest obstacles we all face at the gym: how much we should and CAN push ourselves. I think what you're going through is helping you really get in touch with your body, and therefor progress in your workouts! Woot!

Keep on doing what you're doing, kid (I'm acting out a dramatic fairwell scene in my mind, FYI). You've always been a personal fave. I'll be seein' you (better?). :-)

Even though it can seem like a never-ending battle to realize it's a life-long battle, the idea of fighting FOR your life turns the negativity aspect on its head...it's still a battle, it's still painful, but it's rewarding and empowering too.

Good job, Leslie!! There is NOTHING like the feeling of turning a negative emotion into a positive outlook. It makes me feel very empowered, like I could conquer anything.

I don't know a lot about the South Beach diet, but if it's teaching you to make sustainable food changes, that is AWESOME! Have a great trip! Also...the small choices you made before/during your travel time are HUGE. Recognizing how you would normally make those decisions, and then reshaping the experience, is really hard for most human natures (every semester my students have to do one behavior change project, where they pick one thing they want to change over a month--it always remind me how hard it really is to change our habits).

Font size looks a-okay to me! I'm loving the blog link-up. The video is...hysterical.

You ARE doing it Leslie, and it's out there and clear for anyone who reads this blog...being clear to oneself is definitely a tricky matter. Glad you are giving yourself credit, and letting the tears fall, too.

Pssshhh have I read Maus? Only about 5 years ago! And I think my husband got The Walking Dead for Christmas. Also, fun fact: the creator of Buffy the Vampire Slayer went to my undergrad (Wesleyan University)--woot woot! My recent post these are the faces

Ooo, you're a graphic novel fan? Do you have a favorite? My husband loves them, and I read the more literary ones (cough Persepolis cough). He got The Sandman last Christmas and loves the series.

My mom was the same! And since she and my sister are such amazing cooks, I never felt the need (maybe that's my competitive side wanting to be best) to get into it when I lived at home.

Congrats on getting back into the gym! I'm new to cooking too, but I'm finding I'm enjoying easing myself into the culinary world :-)

Loving all your colorful foods! I haven't mashed many veggies, but I AM all about ease of access with my food so I'll definitely give it a try :-)

Hi there! I stumbled across your blog, and had to comment on the name (it made me chuckle). My husband and I recently moved to a city-ish place in western MA, and nothing makes me happier than being able to step out my front door and have a multitude of options at my fingertips. Looking forward to reading more!

I have the same image of slitting someone's jugular when skating, except I usually knock them down first by barreling into them, then slice some fingers off as I stumble over them. THEN I completely wreck and take em out as I go down. My palms are sweating just thinking about the dangerous situation. My recent post small-town New England and running splits

I would be oh so grateful to be in such a beautiful place, too!

Love this, Leslie (per usual). I can relate to some of your thoughts here--I'm always looking for a way OUT of the blues, but sometimes I think we can benefit from letting ourselves sit in that feeling for a bit.
