Did your weight loss progress survive Thanksgiving dinner? I was worried about gaining back a significant portion of my 10-pound loss, but was surprised when I hopped on the scale this morning.
This week’s progress:
Two pounds gained, which didn’t surprise me one bit. I ate mostly healthy stuff, didn’t snack and didn’t drink (too much).

This year bloggers from around b5media’s Lifestyles, Health and Wellness channels are giving readers a special surprise. We’ve created a virtual mall to help ease the anxiety of shopping for those on your Christmas list who may be a little more difficult to buy for.
I’m currently putting together my own shopping page full of goodies [...]
I admit I don’t have a healthy relationship with food. After years of being told I ate too much, and especially after having weight loss surgery, I became extremely aware of people watching me when I ate. Perhaps I imagined it, but I swear I could see them watching what I put on my plate, [...]
If you are anything like me, you are not interested in standing in line for hours in the dark and cold, just so you can get a free miniature snow globe with your holiday shopping purchase. Nope. It’s not for me.

I’m so sorry I’m a few days late with my weekly update!

Last week in Weight Gain and Hormones, Part Two, I talked about the fact that while hormone imbalances may contribute to weight gain, it is up to us to work to get that fat back off our bodies.
Today, I have something extra special for you. I had so much to share with you that I [...]
I am so excited to share this great recipe with you!
A few months ago, my Grandma Klussmann entered a recipe contest, and won with her healthy coleslaw recipe. Not only did she win a Hamilton Beach food processor, but she also got her award-winning recipe featured in the Winter 2008 issue of Diabetic Living.
Gram’s Holiday [...]
I recently came across an article suggesting that when it comes to housing, greener is better for keeping children lean and preventing obesity. I’m not talking “green” as in recycling and reusing, but instead the color a neighborhood becomes when surrounded by trees, grassy lawns, and parks.
The article, which references a new study presented in [...]
