This week was… whatever. I followed the Phase One eating plan, even when I went out of town, which left me eating very little. I think that’s the main reason my weight loss slowed this week. I think you can’t let yourself be hungry on the South Beach Diet. You need to eat every few [...]

Today is my oldest child’s tenth birthday. We’ve spent the day doing whatever she wanted, and now we’re off to her dance class.
B, you’re really growing up and we have so much fun together. I love you. Happy Birthday!

So, one week down…
Dieting this week has been one of the hardest things I’ve done in my life. I guess you really know when you are addicted to carbs or caffeine when you feel as bad as I did all week. Most of the time I was grumpy and had a headache. Other times I felt shaky. [...]

Both of my girls have a birthday in the next few weeks. Their aunt presented them with their birthday gift this weekend at my oldest daughter’s pary this weekend– tickets to the Dancing With the Stars Show on Tour! There was a lot of shreeking and much excitement and that was just me! It’ll be [...]

Looky what I got in my e-mail box today! I thought I’d share with all the wonderful mommas who read my blog (both of you!), so enjoy your day and get busy downloading Monday!
Mother’s Day should last longer than a day, don’t you think? We certainly do!
So, spend Sunday with your wonderful family and then [...]
Up To No Good…

As our year long warranty deadline closes in, we have had lots of contractors in and out of the house. This morning, the sidewalk guy came and broke up the part of the sidewalk that had a large, raised crack in it. After he finished, the concrete guys came and poured a new section. Being [...]
Sorry, Officer

My son is a little bit of a stinker. When I try to give him kisses good night, he turns his head or licks me or something equally annoying. Monday night Daddy was at a late meeting, so I was tucking the kids in. A wouldn’t give me a regular kiss, so I acted very [...]
WFMW: Disney Sites

I have been planning a trip to Disney World. My husband and I haven’t been since our Honeymoon (Hahaha! I accidentally typed ‘homeymoon’. That sounds interesting, no?) 11 years ago. Our kids have never been, so this will be their first visit.
The information I have found on a couple of sites has made the planning [...]

So, I admit it. I need to lose weight. When I saw the Tales From the Scales challenge, I knew I would enjoy being part of this group. There will be support, accountability, no face to face contact (overweight girls don’t like much of that), and best of all cute little buttons for your blog to celebrate your [...]
It’s Not Right

I started my South Beach diet lifestyle yesterday. I guess I’m in withdrawal or something because I’ve sported a mongo headache since yesterday afternoon. Advil can’t touch it.
I was a good wife/mom and made lasagna and the last of my yummy bread (the second loaf- I ate the first by myself Saturday) for the kids and [...]
