It seems that every diet and wellness book will tell you the same thing, drink more water. It’s the starting point of just about every diet but do you […]

This is one of my new favorite beers! I am usually a BudLight Lime type of girl, or my other fave -Michelob Ultra Orange Tuscan Grapefruit. I saw an advertisement for MGD Light 64 and was like, NO WAY! Only 64 calories and 2.4 carbs? For that, I will give it a try. And guess […]

I like sugar. I like sugar a lot. I like it on my cereal. I like it on my oatmeal. I like it in my coffee. I like it baked into stuff. I like it not baked into stuff.
What I don’t like is how it makes me want to eat more. How one cookie becomes 3. […]

This time we’re being tempted with candy coated chocolate eggs, chocolate bunnies just begging for their ears to be bitten off, and sugar-coated marshmallow birds! Oy! As usual, Weight Watchers hits me with an email yesterday that […]

Do 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!

This is one of those Lottery-feeling recipes, oh yes it is. The first time I made this recipe, it was from the WW website a few […]

I’m so torn. I mean I want to be good […]

I have counted and logged every single piece of food I’ve eaten this week. I’ve actually been kinda OCD about it. The thing is, since I’m a chronic weigher, I just don’t see the weight coming off. It’s kinda depressing actually. I’m not looking for sympathy or help finding excuses or anything.
I think it’s time […]

Just a couple of weeks ago, Beth and I were discussing the need for a WW mobile app for her iPhone (gag, okay, I’m just jealous). We dreamed of being computer geeks and coming up with the app and selling it for like $2 to eleventy billion people and then we’d be gazillionaires. Well, someone […]
