Happy Hump Day!  For the last couple of weeks, I’ve been feeling more and more in control.  I had a great loss last week and I’ve been doing well so far this week. On Monday, I came home from work after being gone for 11 hours.  I didn’t get up early to go to the gym [Read On]

Beautiful weekend in pics

While some of you are experiencing freezing temps and snow, we have been blessed with gorgeous weather this weekend.  After our Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, Kim and I decided to walk on the beach instead of going to the gym.  We met up with our friend Teri and ended up walking about 5 miles!

Earlier this week, I announced that my goal was to lose 2 lbs at my Weight Watchers weigh in.  I went to my meeting this morning and was down…..3.2!!!  So very happy with that number after 2 small gains the last 2 weeks.   So, what contributed to my success this week?  I wanted to [Read On]

Eating out has always been one of my favorite things to do.  Even on days that I’ve brought my lunch to work with me, it isn’t hard to convince me to go out.  This has ended up biting me in the butt on more than one occasion since I’ve been trying to lose weight. I [Read On]

I’ve been seeing pictures being posted of the new Chobani Bite on Instagram lately.  Particularly the Coffee with Chocolate Chunks flavor.  Coffee and chocolate?

Last night we Dane made another recipe from my Best Darn Food Ever cookbook.  We typically eat shrimp one day a week but neither of us ever considered making Coconut Shrimp at home.  I found this recipe and knew I wanted to give it a try. As you can see, there aren’t a lot of ingredients but this [Read On]

Kimmy Got Her Groove Back

I feel like I’m finally getting back in my groove!  I’ve been waking up every day thinking about what I’m going to do to move that day instead of coming up with ways to avoid it.  It’s kinda funny that in the end, you’re only hurting yourself.  All of the time and effort that goes [Read On]

Gym Switch

I’ve been a member at the Gold’s Gym in our town for a little over a year now.  I’ve never really gotten into a regular routine because I didn’t feel completely comfortable there.  My contract was up in November and I’ve been trying to decide what I was going  to do.  My sister and her [Read On]

Happy Hump Day!  I figured this week was going to feel long since I haven’t worked a full 5 day week in awhile and I was right.  It feels like it should at least be Thursday.  ;) Normally I go through my whole day of eats but today I want to start with dinner.  Dane [Read On]
