A Few of MY Favorite Things!!

I might not be Oprah {nor will I ever likely be anything LIKE Oprah} but I do have some favorite things, and I'd like to share them with you! {These links do not attach to any sort of affiliate sites. I get nothing from directing you to them other than the satisfaction that you might end up as happy as I am! I also tried to direct you to the best deal that I could find online! You're welcome!}

1. Keurig Vue V500 {$99}

I received one of these back in May of 2013 as a result of a House Party that I hosted. I previously had a regular Keurig but am now head over heels in love with my Vue! Not only can I make regular coffee and tea but I can also use frother cups that allow me to turn any coffee/tea into a latte! I am in love!! Currently, I am drinking the Pumpkin Spice Latte, I dare say it is better than I've had at some of my local coffee joints. PLUS it is only 100 calories!



2. Harveys Seatbelt Indigo Lola Satchel {$234}

I love all Harveys Seatbelt Bags!! I have too many to list but as of recently, this little beauty has become my FAVORITE! I have even felt a little guilty for neglecting all my other bags!! Yikes! Anyway, this bag is HUGE and holds all of the things I need and more! Besides being huge, and sturdy {I can toss it around} it was Made in the USA. Yes, it is a little pricey, but I honestly think this beauty will likely last forever.


3. Origami Owl Lockets {prices vary}

Okay, this time my link will take you to an affiliate account. Why? Because it is mine! I am an Origami Owl Independent Designer and I love our products! We started out with lockets on necklaces but recently O2 has moved into bracelets. They have such FUN items!! You really need to check them out! Interested in learning more?

4. Costco Membership {$55}

We FINALLY got a Costco Warehouse in our community. The best part? It is on my side of town! We never have anything fun on my side of town {well, besides me! LOL!} but we finally have this. I have two favorite things available at Costco. The first is their Kirkland Pesto Sauce {$6.99} which my family loves on pasta and couscous {yummmy!} and the second item is their homemade mac-n-cheese. So delicious!! I'm really impressed with Costco. Now I've talked myself into heading there for dinner...

Well, I have many other favorites but I think I'll keep it at four for right now! This was fun sharing my favorites with you. I'll do it again soon!

Dusting this thing off and trying again!

I’m honestly not sure what the draw is to blogging for me. It definitely isn’t the “money” as I pretty much don’t have any followers (and if I do, I thank you!) and literally have ZERO sponsors but I think for me it is a form of journaling and that may be the draw. Last night as I was winding down from the day, I decided to give WW another try. I’d been paying for their services for awhile and when I “work the program” I have a lot of success. However, I’ve been avoiding the program for about an month and have had no success...go figure. My goal is to give WW one more month, follow it as best as I can, and reevaluate my situation then. I’m choosing to do the Purple Plan because I feel like that is the best one for me, at the moment. Right now I need more zero point options and this plan has the most. I preplanned breakfast and lunch, both zero points, which leaves me with 16 points for dinner. My goal is to only use 12 so that 4 will carry over giving me a little bumper for my upcoming

Starting Over - Again.

I have been on a roller coaster this past school year and I cannot get my act together. My motivation is null. I know that in order to truly get my life in order, it has to come from within. Unfortunately I cannot seem to find that internal motivation. It is so frustrating. I've missed my last two WW meetings due to other commitments and I know that is half my battle. The other have is definitely my lack of motivation. I need to change that. Where do I begin? Here. WHY do I want to lose weight? GOOD HEALTH: My cholesterol keeps creeping up on me. My latest overall score? 234. That is the highest it has been and I know that with diet and exercise I can drop that number WAY down. MY DAUGHTERS: My husband and I are both overweight. We were not always this way but after we graduated from high school and started making bad choices, the weight crept on and hasn't left. I don't want my daughters to follow in our footsteps. I want them to learn good eating and exercise habi

Day 1 is Done!

Yesterday was another "day one" and in the past I may have patted myself on the back (or not) and moved on. Today I am going to evaluate how I did yesterday, here we go! I did not have my FitBit charged in advance so I lost about a 1/2 day of steps and ended my day with only 3,721 steps. I guess it is better than zero. I stuck to my meal plan! Woohoo!! Here is what I ate: Breakfast: Oatmeal w/1 tsp of turbinado sugar (0 PPV) Lunch: Whole Wheat flatbread pizza with FF shredded cheese (w/1 tsp EVOO), and no salt tomato sauce (w/1 tsp Italian seasoning). (0 PPV) Afternoon Snack: Starbucks Venti Iced Skinny Vanilla Latte (0 PPV - I LOVE Simply Filling!) Dinner: 93% Lean Ground Beef Burger on a Whole Wheat sandwich thin, FF sharp cheddar slice, homemade sweet potato fries (w/1 tsp EVOO). (0 PPV) Evening Snack: Flatout Fold It, FF ricotta cheese, frozen blueberries, 1 tsp turbinado sugar, sprinkle of cinnamon (0 PPV) I drank 75 oz. of water! Yay me! I did not earn my 2
