Lost another 1.8 pounds this past week on WW. May not be as fabulous as last week's 7.6, but I'm happy because a) I didn't gain anything and b) I lost *something*.

Sometimes I wonder about my family. When I told my mom yesterday that I had used some of my extra points on an unexpected craving, she was like, "You shouldn't do that!" while last week when she had gone over, I was very positive and motivational for her. From what you guys have heard about my family, how the the hell did I get to be so well-adjusted???

This was in this past Sunday's "USA Weekend":
Q: I saw what looked like a wedding ring on the left hand of "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy's" Ted Allen. Did he marry his longtime partner? - A. B., Lafayette, La.

A: "I'm glad someone noticed," says the 39-year-old food and wine expert. "We haven't gotten officially married, because we're so crazed with the show, but we're definitely going to." Allen's partner is Barry Rice, a journalism professor he met in Chicago 11 years ago; each has been wearing a ring that long. Their first rings were Irish Claddagh rings they wore on their right hands to distinguish themselves from straight married couples. Now they wear platinum bands, and Allen says he likes to get his on camera: "I'm proud of it."

Can I just say that that's gotta be one of the sweetest things ever?

Now off to finish Sofy's G/X porn that I had hoped to finish last night (stupid brother) and getting information for going up to NYC tomorrow (wheee! Hugh Jackman!).

Congrats on the weight loss. My roommate's mom works for weight watchers and she has told me on a regular basis, it is better to use extra points to satisfy a craving when it happens, than to ignore the craving until it becomes an obseesion. The obsession is the one that will add pounds back on you!

Thanks. And, yeah, that's what I figured - knowing how *I* am, anyway. :-D
