Dear Mother Nature,

Please explain something to me.  Every single month, without fail, I have a month where I feel like all I do is feed my face.  No matter what I eat, I'm still kind of hungry.  I realize that you are about to bring me a "gift" or sorts, but does that mean I need to feel down about myself and have the urge to eat Ben & Jerry's 24/7?

Eve was the woman who talked Adam into eating that apple in Eden, not me.  Why, then, must I be punished?  It doesn't make sense.

Thanks to feeding as though I am preparing for hibernation, my diet didn't go so well this week.  My weight this weigh-in was 204.1 lbs, up .5 lbs from last week.  It's only a tiny half pound, I know, but gaining is gaining!

Next month, could I please crave fruit and salad?

See you soon,
