After trying an Aquacize class at a famous gym chain, I wonder if I might be better off working out alone! (Blog post originally published 08/25/17) 

The second half of my journal entry from September 11, 2001. Hard to believe it's been 20 years. It's especially hard to believe that, since last year, we've had multiple days where 3,000 people or more died on the same day, and yet people are still refusing to get vaxxed or mask up. I know, I know, that's a whole 'nother can of worms. Anyway, thanks for listening -- I'll get back to the lighthearted diet stuff next time, I promise!

On the 20th anniversary of that horrible day in September, I read aloud from my journal entry of that day. It's a bit long, so I've recorded it in two parts. As the war in Afghanistan ends, perhaps it's helpful to remember what led up to it in the first place. Perhaps we can stop another war from beginning, if and when another terrorist attack hits our soil. Or perhaps not. We humans tend to be pretty forgetful. Anyway, here's Part 1 of my 9/11 Diary. Thanks for listening!

How Robert Redford and Kristen Schaal made me think I could walk the Appalachian Trail, albeit on a smaller scale!

In this post from August 2017, I delve into the specifics of exactly how I plan to lose the weight.

In between some of these podcasts, which are taken from old blog posts, I'll post updates from the present day, to let you know what's happening with my efforts to keep the weight off. The new ones will be in my real voice, warts and all!
