I decided to spend my last day off before my four day stretch at work cleaning our house. Boy does it need done! I have honestly neglected a lot of things and now it's taking more time than I would like but hey, it needs done! While I am cleaning I am also organizing our counters and putting things away that we seldom use (e.g. toaster, coffee pot, spice rack). We really don't have a lot of counter space so moving all of this to storage in our closet is very helpful!
I just sent Kevin to his moms to return her roaster that we used on Christmas Eve and then to the store to pick up hamburger and a couple other items. We will be having spaghetti and garlic bread for supper. I am trying out the garlic Barilla spaghetti sauce. There was a sale at Meijer one day so I bought a jar of Barilla sauce and I am excited to try it out!
I have discussed this to much but back in November I joined Weight Watchers online. I know a lot of people right now that are on it or have been on it and has had fantastic results. I like the whole program. It is a lot a like something else I had followed in the past and I had good results BUT followed a very unhealthy diet. Weight Watchers is far from unhealthy and I think when I start following it I will do well. Not only that but Kevin has about 15 pounds he would like to lose so he decided to follow it with me.
I will be honest, I have tried the eating low fat and counting calories way which is a great way to diet but it's honestly not fitting for me. I like knowing that I have 36 points to stick to. Maybe the low number is easier for me and doesn't make me feel overwhelmed? Not sure but say a prayer because this time around I am sticking to this! With Kevin and I both doing this will even be more helpful!
Right now we plan to fix whatever we have that isn't the healthiest and get it out of the way and start buying for a more healthier diet. We have been incorporating healthier things to see what we like and don't like. I really love the Weight Watchers cream cheese and we both really like whole wheat bagels. We also bought low fat plain yogurt, bananas, frozen strawberries and frozen raspberries and plan to make breakfast smoothies.
I am really excited about this change for the both of us and for our future!

We need more organizing and cleaning. It's just hard to get Mike to see that. I hate clutter!!
I loved Weight Watchers Online when I did it :) Good luck with that. I need to organize and clean too! We still have Christmas gifts we haven't put away!
I'd love to be a little support group with you. I totally fell off the plan today. I'm starting fresh tomorrow lol
Sorry I'm a bit late in responding to this post....
Isn't it amazing how fast things get cluttered and disorganized? I've been on this organizing kick for the past couple days. My hubby says I'm nesting. But it feels SOOOO good to get things in order again.
I'm trying to loose some weight myself. Right now I'm mainly watching portion control (except for the pieces of chocolate candy I ate tonight, oi :-(). Dieting has never worked for me. I usually end up gaining at least 15 lbs when I diet. Gaining 15 is not an option for me right now.
I'm hoping by blogging about it that I can stay motivated. I think we should all periodically ask each other about how our plans are going. I'm game if you are !
My name on WW is hollieisme :)
Yay for organizing. My husband is a super pack-rat, and so it's hard sometimes. Good luck with everything!
