So the new diet from ediets.com, which I started late Wednesday seems to be working. I stepped on the scale this morning and lost 3.5 pounds. It's probably just water weight, but what a great psychological boost.

The diet doesn't have a lot of options which works for right now, but I can see myself wanting more food options. I may break down and try weight watchers once I get bored with the ediets thing.

A friend bought Dr. Phil's book on eating, and thinks I need to read it. She is actually doing all the exercises and issues are coming up for her which is a good thing.

What I like about this new diet is that if I follow their meals plans, I feel stuffed when I eat. I like the feeling of feeling very full after eating. Something about that makes me feel good, like I've been really good to myself and stuffed my fat face with food.

What I don't like is that in between meals I'm really, really hungry. This is how I know I'm really cutting back on my calories. Which is a trip because when I eat a meal I feel good and it doesn't feel like dieting, but then two to three hours later I'm reminded that I am dieting.

And why do I have to feel like I've stuffed my face with food to feel good. What's up with that?

Sorry I haven't blogged in awhile. The job has been so stressful. I have a new boss, and now more responsibilities and I don't think I'm getting along with the new boss.

Nobody likes him. Everyone think he's not the brightest bulb on the tree, but he was promoted to VP so what do I know. He's a good talker, and a good sales guy and that counts for something I guess. Plus that Harvard MBA doesn't hurt either.

I hate job stress. Job stress makes you gain weight, and I know all my job stress these last four years have totally made me fat!

I don't see it getting any better either, so I'm going to have make some plans.

So I finally finished Chapter 9 of my novel and I'm reading it and thinking, "Yes indeed I am writing a love story." Check out the chapter ending.

"I looked at him straight in my eyes, fully surrendering in my mind my whole being to him. Raker leaned over and brushed his lips lightly against mine, acknowledging his victory and secretly smiling about the victory celebration that we both knew would happen later that night."

Sick isn't it? Sickey love story chapter ending.

Three more chapters to go. Chapter 10 is from the guy's POV, and that's the chapter they get it on and have some major WMS.

This novel is taking way too long to write. It's going to be around 200 typed pages I think. That's a lot of writing for me.
The December election doesn't seem that far away, but I've already received my democrat primary absentee ballot for the primary in March.

What a joy ... I get to vote for the democratic party nominee for the office of the President.

I think I'll wait until election day in March to vote, and just walk the ballot over to the local polling place.

I liked Wesley Clark, but he's a fading fast. I think the best ticket will be Kerry/Edwards, but Edwards says he won't take th VP spot. The rumors are flying now that perhaps General Wesley Clark entered the race to get the VP spot.

Kerry/Clark? Hmmmmmm ...
