Healthy Meal Challenge for Your Shape

Well the Your Shape Challenge is winding down, one more week to go and this week we were challenged to create a healthy home cooked meal for our families.  I searched through recipes books, googled looking for something new and even thought about creating something from scratch.  Everything I saw or thought of also came with the thought “my kids won’t eat that” and I didn’t want to waste energy and money on something that was going to goto waste so I decided to tweek a...

Your Shape Update and Healthy Snacking Challenge

As you may have noticed I haven’t really been updating you on my Your Shape progress lately.  I am still trudging along with Jenny trying to better my life but it has been really hard lately.  I haven’t been feeling well, the kids have been sick so I am not getting much sleep and I was away for the better part of 3 weeks totally off my program.  Surprisingly while I was away I didn’t do too bad , I only gained about 3 pounds back (which I lost again this past week).  I...

Your Shape Challenge ~ Week 2

Your Shape Challenge ~ Week 2 Well I just finished up my second week with Jenny and Your Shape and what a trip it has been!  It’s getting easier but I’m still amazed at how out of shape I actually am. After a frustrating week 1 where I didn’t loose any weight I’m happy to announce that I have lost 11 pounds this week! It feels really great to say that.  I’m not exactly sure what made the difference but I changed several things this week. 1.  Upped my water intake ~ I’m still nowhere...

Project Skinny Minnie

Project Skinny Minnie Skinny Minne, thats what people used to call me a VERY long time ago. Check out this waistline (me in 1989, hubby was pretty skinny then too…) Over the years I attended college (can you say Freshmen 30), had 4 kids (used the fact that I was gonna have more as an excuse not to loose weight in between), and quit working (thus sitting around more on the couch).  Put this all together and I have gone from “Skinny Minnie” to someone I don’t even recognize, someone who has...
