      Hello friends, My name is Ann and I have a soda problem. I am a coke addict. Not the kind you shoot up your nose.

Did you know that if you drink a Grande Double Chocolaty Chip Frappuccino, you will be consuming 500 calories, […]

Thanksgiving is upon us. Food, food and more food. I always vow I won’t overindulge. And then?  The stuffing, the gravy, the mashed potatoes – they form a coalition to completely wreck my willpower. Cranberry sauce joins the party and I’m defenseless. I wake up the next morning in a shroud of regret, doing the […]

Hail to Martha Stewart! She found me a Pina Colada I don’t have to feel bad about and I tried it out in the most perfect place possible: beach vacation. I read it this week in Martha Stewart Living Magazine which I didn’t know I subscribe to but apparently I do. (Now every day can […]

During my recent pregnancy, the only insatiable craving I had was watermelon. We probably went through at least three personal sized seedless watermelons per week, because my three year old son is also addicted. He actually will sneak into the fridge for watermelon. I can’t complain. Watermelon is a great low calorie way to satisfy […]

Since fresh tofu is offered in so many different textures, this protein power house is a great alternative to meats in main courses, but is also a perfect addition to smoothies, eggs, dips, and soups. This […]

How do you round out the perfect hangover brunch? With a perfect Bloody Mary of course! Because: I am reviewing the delicious array of V8 juices this week and decided that a V8 cocktail would be a great way to tie the two in and… And because I’ve never even had a bloody mary before and… […]

As the weather warms up, I inevitably start getting a taste for smoothies. Also, my goals for the 21 Days Challenge are to eat fruits regularly and to have more yogurt during the day. Smoothies definitely fit that bill!  Here are a few recipes that I am dying to try… The Carb-o-nator Smoothie Ingredients: 1 […]
