*UPDATE* The winner of the book and journal is…. Steph E.! Congrats, girl! I think I know where to find you, so I will get these books out soon!

Authors Rory Freedman and Kim Barnoin take a no-nonsense approach in their book, Skinny Bitch, and state that if you want to lose weight, you just cannot keep shoveling the same crap into your mouth. Really? Who knew?? They take the humorous (and disgusting!) approach when discussing the truth about what you are putting in your mouth.

    After having had a rather crappy day (emotionally) yesterday I was able to step back and realize all the amazing things that I have to be thankful for… I am wonderful children who are miracles…I am so luck to GET TO be their mommy * I need to remind myself of that more* and deep down I know my family loves me…and I am thankful for that… I am also thankful for my amazing and supportive friends (online and IRL)… I know that I am often not as good of a friend as they all deserve but I am working on it…

    Today, I'm thankful for all the toys in my house. My boys played nicely all day (OK, so it wasn't all “nice” – but they played nontheless). Usually I hate tripping over all those toys, but today I love them
