I'm a Big, Fat Loser!

Aug19

It's official.  I didn't win either of the contests I entered over at MomDot.  But that's okay, the kids and I did have tons of fun doing them!  I was entered into a random drawing of five finalists for the blog header contest, but my number wasn't picked.  You know what, though?  I actually do like my flowers.  My blog doesn't look like anyone else's, and I think that's cool.  I was pretty bummed that my hideous earrings didn't win me the cute Little Windows jewelry.  But check out the winner - her earrings deserved the ugliest jewelry ever award!

Now onto what I'm NOT losing - weight!  The email tips from Self.com are not at all the motivator I expected.  I thought I would get a daily exercise and diet tip, but what I received was a how-to for a particular exercise move.  Not that I can blame my lack of willpower and willingness to get off my butt on Self - that's all me, baby!  But I HAVE been focusing on my writing and on making contacts in the media world.  I'll update you on that soon!  Maybe once the kids go back to school NEXT WEEK, I can start trying to improve my diet.  It's hard to resist when they're coming to me every hour saying, "Can we have a snack?  We're STARVING!"

Sad Sad to hear that you didn't win from the contest, but don’t you worry all the efforts is worth it! You had a nice activity with your children and I think that is more fulfilling! And your wish to have a slim body will come true but you should remember the title of your blog site "Everyday is baby steps".

There will be more competitions and better prizes. You should keep on participating; they seem like a lot of fun. Good luck with the contacts with the media people; I'm looking forward to read your post on that one.

I am also trying to lose weight, hehe. I am doing elliptical training thrice a week, but not working much on my diet. I practically eat whatever I crave, hehe. Fortunately, Ramadan (that's when we fast) is in a couple of weeks, so I'm looking forward to lose more weight then Smiling
