Wow this past week has been insanely busy. I took the kids on vacation to Sandusky, Ohio to the Kalahari Waterpark, and a visit Ghostly Manor to kick start summer vacation. Hubby stayed behind because he had to work. I took along Medifast food to stay on track and I did the best I could. [...]
Kids really do grow up so quickly. I can hardly believe that my baby is going into Kindergarten this September. It makes me wish I can freeze time to enjoy all those moments that are just so special. But what moments could I chose? Could it be the one where you get the face that [...]
We can’t believe we finished week 5 of Take Shape for Life Program. If you’d like to back track and read back from the beginning be sure to start from week 1. We’ve been eating 5 meals a day with Medifast food program and 1 lean and green meal a day. This past week we [...]
The struggles of weight gain is very familiar topic that people find difficult to talk about. We all over eat at times and many times we don’t even realize it. Tipping the scale brings our struggles to light and often we’ve notice that we made poor food choices as well as over-sized our meal portions. [...]
Preschool is such a fun time in a child’s life. I’m so glad that I sent each one of my children to preschool because it allowed them an opportunity to make friends, learn the necessary fundamental to get him to kindergarten, and give an opportunity to discover he is an individual and permanently attached to [...]
This is a sponsored post for the Take Shape for Life Program. Thoughts are 100% my own and honest opinion. My husband and I have been on the Take Shape for Life Program with Medifast food for the last two weeks. We are updating our progress weekly and sharing thoughts about the program and how [...]
Were bringing a whole new generation of racers. When my husband was younger he and his brother along with his cousin raced bikes and go karts. They raced at Steel wheels in Indiana as well as popular outdoor tracks around town and in other states. When I first started dating hubby back in 1995 I’d [...]
Losing weight is a work in progress. You don’t gain it over night and you don’t lose it over night. I’m losing it one bite at a time. It has been a week since my husband and I started the Take Shape For Life Program. It’s a change to our eating habits as well as [...]
I’m sure I mentioned before how wonderful my son’s preschool is. The teachers are amazing!! They are always doing fun crafts and treats with the kids. My son handed me a wonderful Mother’s Day gift today and I love it. It’s soo special. It’s a Welcome Rock. Perfect for my front porch and the perfect [...]
There’s nothing more disappointing than realizing you’ve failed yourself. It’s not as easy as it was in my younger years to take off the weight and to stay committed to eating healthy. Sometimes you have to admit defeat and accept help. That’s why my husband and I have decided to make a commitment to our [...]
It certainly has been a busy school year this year. I have 3 children in three different schools with 3 different start times. It certainly is hectic here in the mornings. I always try to make sure that the kids get the best start to their day by feeding them breakfast. Aunt Jemima’s little griddles [...]
My son just finished his very first season of Floor Hockey. The season started in September and we did months and months of practices, a game every week and exercises to get him to the last game of the season. Kids against the Parents. Sounds comical right? Only when hubby winds up on the bench [...]
I started to take a really good look at myself and realized as many do that I’m not happy with the way I look. In the past month I wrote two weight loss posts: New Years Resolution Weight loss Progress and 10 Weight loss tips I’m following to help me lose Weight. We all have [...]
Bedtime struggles? I know them well. When you have a baby you don’t get a guide to parenting. They don’t come with bedtime routines, or a guide to how to deal with melt downs, or sibling rivalry manuals. Everyone wants to tells you how to raise your children and they sure do offer a lot [...]
Floor hockey! Team sports. Kids getting exercise running from goal to goal. Floor hockey teaches team spirit, and respect for other players. Our main goal for enrolling our son in floor hockey was for him to stay active, no video games, and get exercise to help slim him up a bit. Hubby has been telling [...]
