Hi, all,
I have been nuts with work, for which I am beyond grateful, considering the state of the economy and how many capable people are scratching the dusty ground for whatever they can get. Like many things in life in these middle years, it’s not the way it should be, but it’s the way it is. I’m loathe to turn any stories down, even though I’m cranking into the nights and weekends, because I don’t know if I’ll be cycling into famine any time soon.
Still, I didn’t want anyone to start Googling me to make sure they hadn’t missed my obit. Below, a piece I did for Redbook that got a lot of love.
Please Don’t Call This a Revenge Body
Yes, well. I’m here to tell you that that’s not how it is. Like me, these women are on the divorce diet, and I do not recommend it.

Great article. Lately so much has been coming my way that just says ‘get over yourself and those last 10 lbs.’ I love reading your stuff and I hope the workload gives you a bit of a breather soon.

First, I’m glad to hear that you are getting a lot of work and that’s why you haven’t been around much…I was missing you though.
Second, I understand about the “divorce diet” – been there, done that, bought the skinny jeans. I agree that it wouldn’t be my diet of choice either, although I am sad that the 20 pounds seemed to have reappeared after 5 years.
