Eat This, Not That – Today’s Tip

Pin itDo y’all remember when Crooked Eyebrow posted a review on Eat This Not That, The Supermarket Survival Guide? I picked up the book while we were on vacation, and let me just say it is SO VERY INTERESTING. There are some complete shockers in there! I thought I would share some of the information [...]

Motivation

Motivation

Pin itI was out shopping tonight for something, anything to wear that was NOT in a maternity size.  As I was trying on clothes and checking out my appearance in the dressing room mirrors (why are the lights so BRIGHT in the dressing room?  Good GAWD), I became so discouraged that I may never wear regular [...]

For the record

For the record

Pin itI am not looking forward to tomorrow’s weigh-in. I just don’t have a good feeling and I HATE that. Lisa visited me over the past 5 days and we planned out menus and stuck with them. I felt like I did a really, really good job and only consumed a couple of adult beverages. [...]

Not looking forward to tomorrow

Pin itTomorrow is weigh-in day and I am not looking forward to it. I returned from my 5 day vacation with Shrinking Jeans Sister Christy and while I do not feel as if I indulged on the eating front, the scale is telling me otherwise.  Mind you, I did not step on the scale AT [...]

Vitamins

Pin itEvery time I think of vitamins I always think of one of my favorite comedians, Lucille Ball doing her vitameatavegamin episode. That is a classic but what is great is now is that taking  vitamin supplements or a multi-vitamins these days does not have to be that hard. No foul smelling or bad tasting [...]

True Confessions-2/23 (Lisa)

Pin it1.  I am visiting SJ Sister Christy right now at her place. 2.  She is doing a good job at keeping me on track. 3.  Although, she did make me drink a mudslide last night- bad Christy. 4.  I have not stepped on the scale since Thursday morning. 5.  Christy says that I need to [...]
