Check out my TAB

A very smart blogger friend, she knows who she is, helped me with my new RECIPE TAB! :) THANK YOU! I have been wanting to provide a place that keeps all of my recipes handy and now there it is! (look above this post) :) SEE? I did not organize it just added stuff- take a peek! :) Only took me a year and a half to figure that out! Hey this thing does not come with directions ya know! hehe

Gotta say thanks for all of the nice comments yesterday. :) Sean says thanks too! :) I can see the physical changes in my body and I know that is all that should count, but I can't help to want the number on the scale to decrease with my efforts. So I push on, never giving up! One thing that I gotta say is that with all of the scale battles I have had, not once have I let my emotions cause me to revert back to my old eating habits. SO many times I see or hear of people going off program after a gain, or from frustration along their journey. I have been super proud of the fact that I no longer let myself drift. I don't know exactly what keeps me going, but there is something that keeps me from drifting. :)

Last week when we went to Costco I added a couple of magazines to the cart. No, I did not make anything new to share.. lol BUT, Look at what happened to me!!! Sorry I rotated this pic but it does not want to TURN! lol Can you see the DATES? SAME MAGAZINE!! 2 different covers!!! :( I was so bummed out when I sat down to enjoy reading my new issue and realized that it was all too familiar to me! :( Boooo

Yesterday I walked to the library to pick up a book that I had requested from another branch. They send you an email to let you know it was transfered...kinda cool! I got drenched on the way home because it started to pour, but it made me walk faster and I got a good "extra" workout- besides my pool routine. :) Here is what I got: How cool am I? lol Actually I love all of the ideas in this book, not to mention all of the GREAT things they say about water exercise! I had no idea how good this was for me and how many calories I COULD possibly be burning! Whoohoooo! Check out some of the recommended attire for the pool: humm which outfit should I get? DO ya think this book is a lil old? lol A few pics made me laugh: Milk jugs? Seriously? lol Oh and this guy- I like his mustache! lol

We had THESE chicken meatball lettuce wraps again tonight for dinner since I shopped at home this week before going to get fresh stuff. I have another meal out of that package of meatballs! WOW! They stretched far! I am enjoying the chicken tortilla soup for lunches this week. I will definitely be making that again. Super EASY! If you ever make or try anything that I have mentioned let me know! I love to hear about your experience! Tell me all about it! :)

I went to the pool again today...loved it as usual. I am getting a WELL NEEDED hair cut tomorrow (it's only been 8 months) and have told my Mom that the next time I decide to grow my hair out remind me how much I complained. LOL My hair is super fuzzy and does absolutely NOTHING when it is long. Oh well! Besides who wants to wash the gray out of LONG hair every 3 months anyway! GGrrrrr Hey maybe the hair cut will help me on the scale next week huh? lol It's a long shot! :)

Hope everyone had a GREAT day! BYE! :) Pin It

  6. Luvin the changes to your blog, especially the recipe tab. Now, when I'm hungry and don't know what to cook, I'll just come here. Oh, I already do that don't I?

    Those magazines are pretty cool. A co-worker share her copies with us.

  7. Great job with the tabs. Sucks about the magazines.

    And for the guy above him, I just want to say...his milk jugs bring all the boys to the yard.

  9. I recently bought an issue of WW magazine at a meeting because the cover looked different and when I got it home it was the exact same as the one I already had! Just a different cover! That's a sneaky way to sell magazines if you ask me!

  10. Yipee on the recipe tab! What a bummer about the magazines being the same one inside. That is strange!

    LOL at the photos and illustrations in your book. Hope you learn some new water work outs. When the weather warms up and we can use the pool again I am going to try some water aerobics.

  12. Hip hip hooray for the recipe tab! I noticed it yesterday and was sooo excited because I love the food you make.
    Sorry about the magazine. I've had that happen with paperback novels before. It sucks.
    April Fools is NOT so funny sometimes!

  14. VERY cool tab! :) I'm sure many people will be whipping up lots of deliciousness from it! Wanna hear something crazy? You were in my dream again the other night! I'm not sure if I told you this the first time it happened but I've probably had a dream with you in it at least 3 times- isn't that funny? lol

  16. Tabs are very handy things! Glad you figured them out!

    I need to get to the pool - maybe this weekend.

  17. Ha ha ha! That is ALL hilarious. Except for the part where you got two of the same magazine. BOO. That sucks.

  18. LOL @ that pool workout book. Personally, I am ordering that one piece cat suit for the pool. As soon as I leave this comment I am headed to Amazon! Okay, now the dude with the mustache. Is he in the pool with shoes on? Me and the author of the book have the same last name. I wonder if we related. I doubt it. Maybe you should write your own pool book, specific to your experience.
