*sigh* See’s I know them well, no Christmas is complete without boxes of them! I have gotten a little better but it is best I don’t see the box. I don’t do well with temptation.

Ohh…they look reaaaally good.

I am now very glad I live on the West Coast haha!

My plan is to be really healthy and fit until I’m like 90. Then, I’m ordering a 4-lb box of See’s Candy (do you guys have that on the East Coast?) and going to town. I’ll be sure to order several *boxes* of Berger’s, too, ’cause they look AMAZING. I definitely *couldn’t* just eat one!

Hey Roni,

I’m going to be kind of off topic to respond here, but not really. I just wanted to let you know that I just ran my VERY FIRST half marathon today and my time was just UNDER 2 hours. AND…I live in St. Louis and I ran during the hurricane IKE storm! It was bloody miserable, but I did it!

I successfully and quite accidentally became a runner this year. I’m 46 years old, have 4 teenage children and have NEVER run in my life. I’ve struggled with weight off and on since having kids, and really was not successful at keeping the weight off until… I became healthy! The reason I came healthy??? I didn’t like the path my oldest son was headed down — the lazy, junk food path. So my husband & I decided we’d better start leading by example.

We’ve been working out for several years, but I just kind of eased into running this year and decided to try this marathon a few months ago. It really just kind of snuck up on me. I don’t know how it happened.

But I will tell you that crossing that finish line today in the weather from hell was one of the biggest rushes I’ve ever had in my entire life!

If I can do it ANYONE can do it!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Great point! I have found better success this time around because my goal is good health and not necessarily a bikini-ready body. I want to be healthy and energetic for my 4 kiddos. They take all I have!

Great point!! It seems like sometimes we waste so much time just thinking about losing weight and becoming skinny that if we used that time to DO something about it we would get there. Thanks for always putting things in perspective. By the way, I’m giving away 2 subscription to Weigth Watchers as part of their Lose For Good Campaign and would love a little shout out if you could.
