Ever have one of those nights where you just need a tasty meal in a hurry? I had one of those nights earlier this week. I worked late and was starving by the time I got home. I wanted something tasty. I wanted something quick. I wanted something that wouldn’t blow my Weight Watchers PointsPlus […]
I know I’m probably preaching to the choir here, but my life is incredibly busy right now. Even though I don’t have significant other or children like many of you, it just feels like my life is running in overdrive right now. How so you might ask? Well …. I worked nearly 60 hours at […]
I thought I would take this week’s Saturday Review in a slightly different direction from the norm. Instead of reviewing a food product, DVD, etc., this week I’m going to review a website. I first heard of the Me You Health Daily Challenge website back in December from a friend on Twitter. I finally got […]
**NOTE** We are experiencing some technical difficulties with the site. We are working on it and hope that everything will be back to normal soon! Helllllllloooooo, Summer Challengers! How is everyone doing this week? Can you believe we are on the downhill side of this challenge already and quickly approaching the finish line? This summer […]
I love summer! I love all the wonderful cookouts and picnics that take place throughout the season. I also love the abundance of fresh fruits & veggies that are available. So, what better thing to do than combine the two into one?! This salad is one of my own concoctions and I love taking it […]
We’ve all heard it time and time again: Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day. In fact, some people say (Hey Ryan!) it’s THE most important meal of the day because, among other things, it stokes and fuels the metabolism for the entire day. This is especially important if one is […]
Ok, it’s time to ‘fess up. Who ate waaaaaaay too much over the long July 4th weekend? I, for one, sure know I did! It wasn’t that I really ate anything particularly that bad for me, it was just the quantity of how much I ate. The good news? You don’t have to let a […]
I love kitchen gadgets! There, I said it. Over the years, I’ve tried a plethora of different things: choppers, graters, zesters, slicers, etc. You name it, I’ve probably tried. Some work really well. Others … yeah, not so much. Even with that, I’ve never given up on my quest for the perfect gadgets. This just […]

Happy National Peanut Butter Cookie Day!!! What? You mean you didn’t know that holiday was happening today? Well, now you do. I love peanut butter cookies. I make no apology for that fact. I mean, seriously, what’s not to love? It’s a cookie and the main ingredient is peanut butter! *swoon* Of course, now that […]
UPDATE: Congratulations to Misty (@FromFat2Phat2) who is the winner of the Zumba Fitness Game! Please email me your mailing information and I’ll get the game in the mail to you. Two weeks ago most of the writers and editors were in Baltimore for FitBloggin‘. While there, we had a great dancing away a ton of […]
There’s no denying it, we live in a world of technology. It seems there is a gadget or smart phone app for everything these day. The fitness industry is no different. There are lots of different ways to track one’s food intake, training plan, activity, etc. Today, I’m going to focus on some of the […]
Wow, it’s hard to believe we’re already just over halfway through this challenge, isn’t it?! How is everyone doing on meeting their goals? So far, so good for me! I’ve been drinking my water, tracking my food, and getting in my steps each day on my pedometer. With all the walking I’ll likely be doing […]
I’m sure many of you are like me and love pasta! I mean, really, what’s not to love? All that carby goodness of pasta which also just happens to be the perfect vessel to carry some luscious sauce right to your taste buds. *drool* Of course, then there’s the downside which is all the calories […]
I confess, I clearly need paid accountability to keep myself on track with my weight loss efforts. One would think after losing around 70 pounds that I could do this on my own. Yeah, not so much apparently. I confess that last week I toyed around with the idea of giving up my Weight Watchers […]
