Weekly Check In: New Years


It's January and most people are making New Year's Resolutions to lose weight and start anew. These are all great and fantastic things! I support you in your journey! It's a long road ahead. I gained 3.8 pounds over the holidays. The fun is over and I am back on my routine. I have already lost 1.4 of what I gained. It's all good. 

How am I doing it?  Weight Watchers.  This is how I choose to take my journey. It works for me. The best part about this program is there is nothing I cannot have. That being said, I do not indulge every day for if I did I would not have the picture above to demonstrate how far I've come. Am I strictly doing Weight Watchers(eating a certain way)? No, I am also moving more...oh that darn word anyway. I do yoga! 


All right, so it is not like that, but if you would like to know who I follow her name is Adrienne and I think she is great. She is the right level of cheery, explains everything exceptionally well and her videos are for the beginner to the advanced "yogi."  

Here's my other super secret...are you ready?  While I do still "indulge" from time to time, it is not an all the time thing. I rarely eat anything sugary anymore. Hint: if it is high in fat, calories, and sugar I will likely turn it down because chances are it is unworthy of my love. Let's be honest, I might love the food but it is not going to love me back. 

I will report back each week on my journey, struggles and successes because that is what this all about. What are you doing in 2016?

Good for you! And really the more you stay away from treats the less you crave them. You can do it!

A Leave of Absence

Image
I just wanted let you all know that I am taking a (short) leave of absence. I was feeling under the weather last Friday, and Saturday I was a lump. By Monday I felt almost normal again. Tuesday even better! By Wednesday night the whole left side of my face felt completely packed. Today(Thursday) I am at death's door. Or maybe it's at mine! All I know is, I haven't felt this crappy in a long time. I spent the day at my mom's and mostly slept. Thanks Mom. Now Rich is home and he is running the show. I shall return...as soon as I stop feeling like this.

Dancing with the Stars---Dead

Image
That is how the show was introduced on Halloween night.  "Dead, from Hollywood, it's Dancing with the Stars!"  with your host, Tom Boooo-geron! Oh and Brooke who didn't get a play on her name.  Tonight, the dances are all spooktacularly themed.  Plus there is also a team dance. David and Kym 1-800-868-3406 David and Kym are dancing The Cha Cha and David wants to add magic to the act, so they bring in a professional magician to help with some basic tricks.  I enjoyed their Cha Cha.  It was fun. Len said it had  lots of tricks and treats and that David turned himself into a dancer! Bruno told him he has got the prestige, and that he was a natural at turning tricks. Carrie Ann said his improvement was phenomenal. She said he was polished and finessed, but that he needed to work on his holds. Scores: Carrie Ann:  8 Len: 8 Bruno: 8 Total: 24  JR and Karina 1-800-868-3410 JR and Karina are dancing the Tango to Ghostbusters. Why do they give such ch
