It’s a Cinch—Sort of | Diet Review from the Faux Diet Queen
February 3, 2012 – 9:41 am
From shoe sales to secrets, we girlfriends love to share with each other. And one of the things we definitely love sharing is any secret to being healthy and fit. Thankfully we have the Faux Diet Queen to share her girlfriend advice on getting fit and losing weight.
The Faux Diet Queen (or as we affectionately call her, FDQ) has agreed to share her latest (and last) weight loss journey with us as a regular feature at Girlfriendology. We hope you’ll join us to cheer her on, nudge her back on track when she strays, and generally giggle along.
I look at each new diet as an adventure. Like Ponce de Leon, I am convinced that each plan, each regimen, each approach will bring me one step closer to being thin and looking younger. Unlike good ol’ Ponce, I’ll settle for shedding some unwanted poundage and looking my age.
So how happy was I when Read More »

The Faux Diet Queen | Year End Interview with Girlfriendology
January 13, 2012 – 10:25 am
The Faux Diet Queen (or as we affectionately call her, FDQ) has agreed to share her latest (and last) weight loss journey with us as a regular feature at Girlfriendology. We hope you’ll join us to cheer her on, nudge her back on track when she strays, and generally giggle along.
At the start of the new year, we thought it would be a good idea to visit with the Faux Diet Queen and see what was on her mind for 2012. So we sent our intern, let’s call her Leslie, out to meet and interview the ever-inventive FDQ. This may not have been the world’s best idea since Read More »

It’s going to be a GREAT year! How do we know? …
January 10, 2012 – 12:36 am
What’s our prediction for 2012? How do we KNOW it’s gonna be a GREAT year?
Because … WE ARE AMAZING WOMEN! We have the fantastic opportunity – right now – to make it a wonderful 2012.
We have the power to go after our dreams, to encourage our friends and to be the better friend who just may make another woman’s life better too. We can show others what it means to be supportive, inspiring and thoughtful. We can model to our children and all the ‘grown children’ in our world what it looks like to share the spotlight, to recognize the people who bless our lives and to practice ‘girlfriend gratitude’ and appreciate the wonderful women in our life.
That’s what we have the opportunity to do. That’s how powerful we are. That’s why 2012 is going to be great!
A little girlfriend inspiration for making 2012 your best year to date …

November 18, 2011 – 8:05 am
What food beliefs do you have? Did you grow up with them or develop them as you got older? Our wonderful girlfriend, the Faux Diet Queen, discusses some of the crazy food beliefs she has.

From the Faux Diet Queen:
Over the years I have collected enough Food Baggage to open my own luggage store. Like most baggage, Food Baggage is heavy (accounting for nearly 12% of my body weight). And like the airlines, my hips charge extra for carrying the nonsense around.
Here are five of my all time favorite Food Baggage Tips Tricks Beliefs Bits of Read More »
