Reviews"The storyline was pure reading heaven..." - Talia Ricci, Joyfully Reviewed, for Riding Partner "This
novella is an erotic romance and delivers on both counts - it is quite romantic
and is full of some hot bed play." Marina, Cupid's Library Reviews for Revealing
Photos " UNDER HER SKIN is so much more than a wonderful romance, it’s
a lesson in love and acceptance. It is an experience not to be missed."

Sometimes things just don't work out the way we hope or expect. It happens a lot for those of us who are working on increasing our health. Take for example me and this week's weigh-in. I lost weight, so that wasn't the problem, though the fact that it was only 0.2 lbs certainly was a sting. No, it was the fact that as of Thursday I had at least a pound and a half weight loss. I had made all the right decisions this weekend at the convention, eschewing the ice cream social, eating Weight Watchers yogurt and oatmeal for breakfast, fat free chips (only 14, just 1 point), basically doing everything I could. I took the stairs. I walked. I spent a sweaty thirty minutes in the fitness area. And, in spite of the large weight loss pre-convention, when it came time to step on the scales this morning, I had lost squat. Yeah, it was negative movement on the scales. I can thank the gods for that much. But you see, I should be ecstatic. I have reached what many of us in weight watchers call one-derland. You know, that magical, mystical place where there is a "1" in front of your weight instead of a "2." Except I don't feel like I "made it." The scale bounces between 200.0 and 199.8 (or in the case of this week 199.6). So, I still see that dreaded "2" on my scale. It doesn't matter that I've lost over 85 lbs to get there. There is still a "2" on my scale. Mean little number. *pout* It's important to remember the positive things when something like this happens. I have come a long way, and yes, that is something about which to be proud. I will get where I need to be going. It just may take me longer than I want, and that, my friends, is a disappointment. But it's a new week. Let's make it a great one!
