The Dawn of a New Day...

Hi everyone:) So, tomorrow I re-start Weight Watchers again...well, technically I never stopped...I mean, I signed up for a few months at a time but I did stop following the program due to some major stressors in my life. I am now, at least I hope, back on track. I am hoping that my life is going to calm down a bit, especially with the holidays coming around. I've already started my Christmas shopping...can you believe it? I wanted to get a head start this year as the last 2 years I've been pregnant and all everyone got was gift cards. I'm being more creative this year:)

So, lets talk holidays...only because they are my absolute favorite. And I'm sure you all know why holidays are my favorite...can you guess? BECAUSE THERE'S FOOD INVOLVED *lol*. BUT, this year we won't really be celebrating majorly with food because my step children will be with their mother on Thanksgiving and CHristmas Day and my older son will be with his father...so.....that just leaves me and my husband and the two little ones (who really don't eat much). I'm sure I'll make a small turkey but I'm going to try to make some healthy side dishes for just my husband and I...I can't wait! An intimate Thanksgiving this year!!! I really do love the holidays. I also love the Fall. My favorite season. Though I hate the thought of it getting cold, I just love watching the leaves turn.

Okay, back to food *lol*....I wil be collecting some food recipes for the holidays and am hoping some of you could "donate" a few good recipes. My body is just so out of wack with eating crappy food that I can't wait to start eating well again. Well, the buck stops here. I officially start TOMORROW. Okay, I've said it. Tomorrow is it. Look, yet again, for my stats tomorrow and from then on in, my weekly weigh ins. Everyone have an awesome night and I'll blog again tomorrow!!

  1. Hi Shaleen! Thanks for signing up to follow my blog! The support that we recieve on these long journeys to better helath is so important and the online community is a big part of that. Congratulations on starting a blog... it truly will help you out as you walk this path.
