Commenting..

I know I have been so awful over the last year with reading & commenting on everyones blogs. That is something I am working on right now. I'm trying to refocus myself in the first place & then continue by reading everyones blogs again and making sure I comment :-)

I love seeing your comments to me too, so please continue to do so. I promise I am getting back into the habit myself & I've always discovered that if I comment, ya'll will comment back.

Thanks so much for your patience with me this last year. With December upon us & the new year right behind it, there are quite a few things I look forward to changing. Armed with my iPhone & Kindle Fire (COMING NEXT WEEK!!), I am prepared to change things once and for all. No more excuses!! I finally have the technology to constantly be in touch & intend to do just that.

Happy Thanksgiving!!

REALITY CHECK!!

So, lately, I've been having some very serious back pains. I struggle to get up in the morning & need help getting off the floor if I sit down. Something is not right & I don't feel like I should be having these kinds of problems at the young age of 25.

That being said, I had an AH-HA moment. If I don't get my shit together, I'm gonna end up in a wheelchair before I'm 50. I have to change something to get my body healthy & that thing is my weight. I know I've been up and down in weight loss for about 3 years now...but this was a different kind of moment this time.

So, in January, I think I'm going to rejoin Weight Watchers. I'm hoping that having the iPhone this time around will make things easier since I will be able to track wherever, whenever. NO EXCUSES. Until then, I'm gonna focus on eating right & exercising when I can. See what I can do on my own!!

I feel like I've written this post so many times before...could this time be the difference??

Weekend Giveaway!!

With the weather getting colder & the holidays right around the corner, it seemed about time for a nice giveaway!! Thanks to BlogSpark & Progresso Soup, I will be giving away this weekend some great prizes for you to try!!

I tried these myself & they are AMAZING. I've always been a soup fan & Progresso is actually my favorite. So when they offered me this opportunity, I immediately said yes!! Here's what they sent me to test out:

These new light creamy soups are delicious & perfect for the cold day!! They are light enough to make a great lunch, but still perfect for dinner when it's just freezing out and you want something simple, but delicious!! My boyfriend ate up the Light Creamy Potato with Bacon & Cheese and LOVED it. He said it was rich & just the perfect blend of bacon with the potato and cheese. I tried it myself and had to absolutely agree with him. For the Chicken Pot Pie, it was just like I would have imagined, tasting absolutely divine and making it my favorite to bring with me to work for lunch!!

These soups are only 100 calories per serving, so you never feel guilty eating them!! Sometimes, I would make a light grilled cheese sandwich to go with it & it never failed to fill me up and keep me going for hours!!

And now it's your turn to test these out!! With the help of Progresso through BlogSpark, I'm giving away:

• (2) Cans of Progresso^® Light creamy soup
• (1) Soup mug
• (1) Lunch tote
• (1) Water bottle

I've been using my lunch tote for EVERYTHING & it's definitely come in handy...even if just for snacks!! And the soup mug is my new favorite device. It keeps everything together for me & makes it easy to clean up after a meal.
