My new goal

I have new goal until the end of the year. It's something new and totally easy, in fact you can join too if you want and we can cheer each other on. I decided that rather than try and limit my "all things sugar" intake, I would embrace these last couple months of the year where sugar runs rampant. I have decided to give in to my desires and eat whatever I want. It is going great so far thanks to those that market the sugary holidays. It begins in September. As soon as the school supplies are off the shelves, here comes the Halloween candy. After Halloween comes Christmas and somewhere in between is Thanksgiving with homemade rolls, pies, stuffing and yummy turkey, a dinner of which I made last Sunday - Oh so good! Anyway, I am doing really well. I haven't excercised as much in an effort to welcome the pounds that are coming. Again I am embracing this new softer middle section of mine. In fact, yesterday when I was at my favorite spin class, I was so fortunate to be cramed right into a corner of mirrors. I was able to see myself and my newly formed muffin top for 60 minutes! How lucky am I? So I know my new plan is going well, for sure!!! I don't really have a number in mind as far as weight goes. I try not to focus on the numbers, just how sluggish and sick I have been feeling. Again, I must be right on track as I go to bed everynight with a stomach ache. I encourage all of you to try this new lifestyle with me and feel free to cheer me on when you notice my clothes getting a little tighter which also means to some people, sexier. I feel so liberated (but at the same time a little disgusting)!


These are my favorites right now. Who doesn't love Ghirardelli Chocolate and these only come out for two months of the year, so yea, I will be stocking up. And my new find, Limited Edition Oreo with candy cane creme. This is really a glorified Oreo, but I bought it. I love peppermint with anything chocolate!


And if my kids don't shape up, I will be eating all of this too. Two days ago they had their candy taken away. I was tired of the bickering all month, but they don't seem to mind their candy is gone. Now it resides up in my bedroom, where I munch and snack in private.
