Mama’s on a diet

weight loss jewelry

Such a thing does not exist.

Well it might, but it doesn’t work like magic.

A couple of years ago a friend bought me a ring on ebay.  It was supposed to be blessed with a weight loss spell.  Maybe it worked, it was around the time that I lost the most weight.  More than likely, it was coincidence.  I don’t mind that.  Maybe it was a reminder of what I was doing.  Maybe it was a tiny off topic visual to tell me to put down the damn cookies.  Maybe it just happened to be on my hand when I was losing weight.  I actually lost it becauses I lost too much weight and it fell off at some point.  Go me?

Anyway, I need something new.  I need another peice of jewelry that can be my good luck charm.  I need a gimick.  I’m going to go through my jewelry box tonight and see if I have anything that might fit the bill.  I haven’t worn ANY jewelry in probably 9 months.  Before that it was just stuff in my piercings and my engagement ring.  Once that ring came off (FINALLY!!!) and I sold it, I realized I didn’t want the other stuff either.  It wasn’t who I wanted to be.  It was my past. I wanted a clean break from all of that.  I feel like I have that now.

Alita is supposed to work on making some bracelets for my GOAM (girls on a mission) group on myspace but she’s kinda busy – ya know, two teens, a husband, and a job oh – and a dog, that kinda wears on people.  I think a ring might be my best bet though, something that I can mess with and turn around my finger.

I really want a light colored+cloudy (think milk and butter) amber necklace (round beads please) because of all the healing properties of amber – that and I think they’re really pretty.  I think I’ll make that my reward once I get to -50lbs.  That will be 1/3 of my goal – gah, it sounds SOOO impossible, but I’m pretty great at the impossible.  They said it would be impossible for me to have a healthy baby – proved them wrong.  What do THEY know anyway?  NOTHING!  Thats what.

Well, off to look through my old jewelry for something capable of  being my good luck charm – if all else fails, I’ll get another ring off ebay thats got a spell on it! ha!
