House Plants and Dieters – More in Common then you Think?

Date April 21, 2008

I wrote this yesterday while taking a break from all my Sensational Sunday activities. I hope it makes some sense. ;~P

I’ve never been a gardener (not until recently—stop laughing mom) so I can’t believe I’m about to make this correlation. This morning I received an email from a reader…

I am just [...]

Roni,
I have started several times, but never stayed with it, what is the key to sticking to WW for such a long time and how can i do it?

Hi Darlene,

That’s a great question! I wish I knew the answer. I really do. But, unfortunately, all I can do [...]

Apparently I was HACKED!

Date April 18, 2008

HACKED?!?
SERIOUSLY?!?!
COME ON PEOPLE! What are we 10, here?
I know you are all smart, and web geniuses and all but why do you have to mess with people who are just minding there own business. I mean, PLEASE! I go to the park with the toddler only to return home and find THIS MESSAGE [...]

Why am I up?

Date April 17, 2008

I don’t know. I get on this computer and then hours FLY by. I had a great day but now at almost 1AM, I’m hungry.
Bed or snack? ummmm bed! Well maybe I’ll have a fruit leather on my way up.

Killer Ab Workout

Date April 17, 2008

Tonight (after mustering enough energy to get out of the door) I hit a cardio kickboxing class.  The instructor always ends with 15 minutes of ab work and tonight she did such a simple effective routine I have to share. I still feel like I have a rock in the pit [...]

How did/do you choose your goal weight?

Date April 16, 2008

I almost forgot about this weeks question! I can’t believe it. I normally look forward to it but I’ve been so distracted by new new MAC! ;~P

A-n-y-w-a-y (I’m feeling a bit goofy tonight, please forgive the over the top voice inflections that are going through my head.)

Chatting with my friend Anne today, we came [...]

Music, a Movie and a MAC at Midnight

Date April 15, 2008

So much for the early to bed concept, it’s just about midnight and I’m up playing with my brand new toy! I can’t believe I’m a MAC user now. Well, almost. I’m still writing this post on my PC but only because the new MAC isn’t completely set up yet. It will [...]

HOLY $HIT – I just ran a 5K!

Date April 15, 2008

OK, sorry I don’t normally curse but I’m super excited!  Most of you know I’ve been considering signing up for a 5K run after my friend, the trainer, mentioned it to me a few weeks back. I’ve been talking about it ever since but haven’t started actually running.  See, I’m the type [...]

Note to Self…

Date April 14, 2008

Don’t buy Doritos telling yourself they are really for the husband and then proceed to eat half the bag. Don’t even BUY the baked Doritos in the first place. You KNOW you have no self-control when they are in the house.

Food

pretzels (ok, so the toddler grabbed them first thing this morning and [...]

To quote Darren
