Precious!
I saw a film last night called Precious. It's about an abused 16 yr old and it split me apart. I recommend it highly to social workers and anyone who has been affected by abuse that are healed enough not to be triggered too intensely. Not sure when it comes out.
I am a jaded soul-having worked too long in the Entertainment biz, but this film and the Premiere restored my faith to some extent in the power of filmmaking and made me grateful that I happen to still be slogging along working, keeping my contacts, so I was able to attend.
I went to the after party and wow! I usually will avoid these unless I have to work but SU wanted to go to see if the Chateau Marmont is haunted-so we went. Mary J. Blige sang an amazing song 2 ft. from my rapturous face. I have loved her long time-what an amazing talent. Oprah is a co-producer of the film and she and I had a little chat. I must say she looked amazing-voluptuous even.
I was wearing jeans and a t-shirt-shame on me but I had a big lady attack while getting dressed-"I HATE MY CLOTHES", "NOTHING FITS" "I AM TOO FAT TO LIVE"-you get the drift-my freaken hormones are making me crazy! Almost didn't go-so glad I did. Also ran into 2 very old friends and it was just magic.
On the weight front-nothing good to report but I did eat a salad for lunch today. I really want to lose these last ten pounds and I think I can feel my mojo lurking in the shadows. I need some good old fashioned arse kicking people. Bending over to make it easier for you. You can't miss hitting such a large target...fire away!

Wow...rubbin' elbows with the rich and famous! How cool is that! I've seen clips of that movie. The girl who plays the lead was on the Ellen show the other day. It looks like a heart breaking movie. I'd like to see it but don't know if I could take it!
Now......about that arse kicking! I felt your torment about trying to decide what to wear and whether to go to this event. Glad you went. Life goes on whether we lose weight or not. We have to accept and love ourselves as we are at the moment. I know....easier said than done. I have found that when I change things up with the food plan it helps kick start a loss even it's just for a little while. I was doing all Atkins and going nowhere. Changed to weight watchers point system in addition to keeping my carbs low (but not as low as Atkins) and it has helped. Don't know how long it will last, but it helped me to lose a few more pounds. Now go out and get yourself a nice outfit to wear to the next event! You deserve to be good to yourself! And, yeah, I'm STILL coming out there with cindyshine. We're BOTH gonna kick your arse!!! LOL (((((HUGS))))
