On a mission...

I've always struggled with weight, tried every diet under the sun. I've joined Weight Watchers (again) and have set goals for myself.

With the gift card from my Boss, I bought the bodybugg (as seen on The Biggest Loser). You wear this hi-tech contraption on your left arm and it keeps track of calories burned, steps and your nutrition if you enter your food into the daily tracker. So far I'm down 10.6 lbs :) It's my first week and I really stuck to my points, wrote everything down and exercised at least 3 times per week. Yay ME!!!!

I have a friend in the hood that is walking with me (waving at you Missy) and it really helps to have someone to walk with. I have a short term goal to reach by Monday Feb. 1st and I'm on track. Wish me luck!

Mmmmm...smoothies!

 

My awesome boss sent me a margarita machine for Christmas and it makes great smoothies too. This has become our nightly treat.

Welcome to my newly created blog!

My niece Emily has been so good about updating her blog and I enjoy surfing the web for other crafty and quilting sites that I thought it time I start my own.

I hope this will be a place to not only connect with family and friends, but also a place to share my latest creations. I'm a quilter first and foremost, but I also enjoy home dec sewing, totes, aprons and I've got a decent scrapbooking paper/tool collection too. I'm trying to hold out and NOT get into the cricut craze. http://cricut.com

Well I'm still learning how this all works but stay tuned!
