Hee hee... well done PQ. The Ugly Betty/Queens line made me bust a gut laughing :) New York is so surreal, like walking past the supreme court building and going... DUN DUN!

By Helen]]> Sounds like a great trip, immediately followed by airport & TSA hell. And, this may be the best line you've ever written:

"(Vacation calories don't count. Note to self: Stop going on vacation unless you're willing to buy new fat pants for real.)"

Love it. Printing it out to put on my fridge. With proper credit, of course!

By Mattie]]> I was so surprised when I opened my home page online via Comcast and there you were! On the FRONT PAGE!!!!

I clicked on the link and watched the entire interview. You are such a pro at this now.

I just wanted you to know that everyone in PA who uses Comcast got to see you on the FRONT PAGE of their home page.

Is that not cool or what?

By Crabby McSlacker]]> Wow, I had almost the EXACT SAME EXPERIENCE this weekend!

Well, except for being interviewed on TV and touring New York and hobnobbing with famous people and doing book signings and meeting readers.

I meant the wine and chocolate and melty cheese and overeating part.

Note to self: consider purchasing new pair of fat pants.

I keep watching the CBS clip for inspiration which is either stalker-ish or a fantastic compliment. You rock, keep it up :)

By Red]]> Airplane travel is such a terrible thing. A trip like that could ruin a TV appearance for me.

By Kate]]> Your hair looks adorable in the pics you posted! I think my hair texture is similar to yours- i.e. thick and wavy, but mine is always veering towards the frizzy. Can you recommend whatever product you are using? I know your blog is not a forum for hair care tips, and I promise to focus all future comments on weight related issues. Loved your book!

By Jen]]> I clicked through the feed reader to your blog just to tell you how much I like the way they did your hair for you (noticed it looked different in the green room). Wish we all had a celebrity stylist hanging out in a back room somewhere.

By Laura N]]> You looked so great on TV! Fabulous job. You're a total natural in front of the camera. And your hair? TO DIE FOR.

CBS really did a nice job with the interview, too. Glad you got to say the book title & promote it properly.

By Boilergrad1993]]> You did a great interview. You looked very relaxed and matter-of-fact. But I'm sure this is old hat by now. I bet after all this traveling and whatnot, you need a vacation.

And you know what I noticed most about the Early Show interview?

You've got great collar bones! Beautiful!

By Lisa]]> PQ, I bet that someone reading your blog could have found you a source of size 32 pants at night in NYC. (My guess is either an open-late Target [Collge Point, Queens, maybe] or the closest WalMart [dunno where that'd be].) Heck, in a city where you can get dinner, porn, and weed all delivered at your convenience, probably some delivery service could have hooked you up, too.

By kate]]> I just saw your Early Show clip on the Comcast page and want to tell you how impressive you are. Your poise and your confidence along with a fantastic sense of humor serve you well.(Ever think about being on television as a career?) You seemed completely comfortable being interviewed and we all love your success story. You didn't need the pants as a prop;in fact, I think the focus being more on you in person was much more riveting.All the best to you!!

By Laura]]> I'm sorry I wasn't in NYC to get to meet you - hopefully you'll be back soon! What did you think of Tasti D-Lite? I absolutely love it, though I recognize that it is still dessert and shouldn't be consumed daily as I used to be wont to do :)

By Heather E]]> The interview was great and you looked terrific! I am hoping you make it out to Portland, OR for a reading one of these days. I would most certainly be there.

By kathy]]> So, has your boss STILL not said a word about the weightloss? And does he notice you're, like, on the TELEVISION? :)

Enjoy!

Oh, and I wonder if licking Rick Springfield would have cured your headache? Not scientific, but a GREAT excuse!

You look so purty in the picture where you're standing under the juice sign!

By Chrissy]]> First time commenter-I have been reading archives since I first saw you in May on the Today Show. I am now (almost) in 'real time'. [I am not a slow reader, I also read and benefit from readers comments. Thanks to all.]

I'll bet when you first starting blogging about your hard work to lose weight, you never imagined you would inspire so many ppl. Very cool to have become such a motivation for so many including myself. (thank you)

I appreciate you sharing about your hard work over the years w/all of us, and all the while enduring those awful headaches! We can kind of forget about that and be amazed by all your hard work.

PQ said- "When I finally got on the airplane, some acronym wasn't working (CPU, APU? Maybe the FU?) so the air conditioning did not work on the tarmac. It was only when the engines took over power in the air that the air came on."

My son is an Aircraft Maintenance Technician, [he works on airplanes] and this made me laugh. I am trying to learn what it is that he talks about too. (I though the FU was funny..) Glad the APU worked in the air! =) haha

And what is this about your Twitter Addiction?? You weren't so sure about it at the beginning, and now you are addicted. Grin.

Again, I appreciate this site. Like another person who posted, I am planning to reward myself w/your book when I lose 30lbs. (that is only 2lbs away now, I want the book!)
