What American doesn’t love peanut butter? We eat it on bread, toast, in a sandwich, with bananas, with chocolate, with a spoon, and the list could go on and on. My household loves peanut butter and we don’t even have kids. The problem is, if you are trying to lose weight, peanut butter is not [...]
My husband and I are iPhone addicts. We have had them for many years now and I think it is safe to say we would have a really hard time going back to a traditional flip phone with no “apps.” If you are not technical at all, an “app” is short for “Application” and there [...]
I wrote an earlier post about how much I love the Special K Meal Replacement bars. I have had several people tell me they have tried them now and they also love them. The great news is, they are at Costco now! You can get a big ‘ole box for much cheaper than in the [...]
I just got back from a cruise on Sunday night. We went for my husband’s brother’s honeymoon. I got to spend the week with my husband, getting to know my brother and sister in law and meeting some new friends. We had a blast. We were on the Carnival Legend making stops in Grand Cayman, [...]

My Weight Watcher leader, Jacynta asked me to share [...]

While shopping at Costco last week, I noticed a big box of Brothers-All-Natural Fruit Crisps. In this particular box were three flavors. It came with Fuji Apple, Asian Pear, and Strawberries and Bananas. We decided to try them out because there were no other ingredients in the package other than fruit. Knowing that on Weight [...]
No, I am not perfect. I have certainly proven that in the past few weeks with my diet and exercise. One might say I had “fallen off the wagon.” That is what happens when you don’t go to Weight Watcher meetings, you allow yourself to indulge one too many times, and and you don’t count [...]
Happy FAT Tuesday! I wasn’t really sure what that meant (I knew it had to do with Mardi Gras) so I did a little research and found out that “Fat Tuesday” is another name for Mardi Gras. It is basically the day before lent starts and everyone eats up all the sugar, fat and eggs [...]
