The Fam

Such a great weekend! Tess and Manuel came in from Dallas on Wednesday night for a long weekend. They spend every other Thanksgiving with us and this is the year they will spend with his family, so we enjoyed a nice long weekend together. They are hosting their first Thanksgiving this year as husband and wife in their new house, so I’m super excited for them! They made mashed potatoes for our whole family this weekend as a practice run. They were perfectly mashed and apparently it takes two to peel 10 pounds of potatoes! My birthday was Friday and the whole day was just perfect. My morning started with Mike bringing me coffee in bed, which he has started doing fairly regularly lately and I gotta say, I absolutely love it! What a great way to start the day, basically someone telling you how much you are loved by […]

WW Friendsgiving

Having the opportunity to be a WW Ambassador has been such a great experience. I really lucked out with this gig! The company treats us so well and the interaction from the entire social media team is great. They’ve set up awesome communication for all of us when we have questions, and they continue to come up with fun things for us to participate in and promote the company. I’m loving it! Friday night I had the opportunity to host a WW Friendsgiving and it was such a fun way to start the holiday season. WW sent a huge box of goodies for hosting a Friendsgiving. Flatware, napkins, table runner, even gifts for the guest! Oh, I’m working on changing up the look of the blog and moving things around a bit, but I’ll still continue to blog during construction, so pardon the mess while I figure it all out. […]

myWW is here!

If you are a WW member then you know there has been a bit of anticipation building up to the release of the new plan. It’s finally here! WW new plan was revealed on 11/11. For the first time ever, WW members now have THREE plans to choose from. This means even more flexibility for members. I’m so excited for our members! It really is something for everyone. Smartpoints has not changed, which is great news because members know that a Smartpoint is still determined by calories, protein, sugar and saturated fat. All three plans still have Zero point foods and a Daily and Weekly Smartpoint budget. All three plans still allow up to four rollover points each day. The new plans are Green, Blue (formerly Freestyle) and Purple. If you are having success on Freestyle, then you don’t need to change a thing! Your plan will now be called […]

Happy Camper-Solo Version

This trip……I’ve so dreamed about this camping trip. I first started thinking about this trip back in 2016 when I first met some of my dad’s Vintage Trailer camping friends. I imagined myself playing house in my own little trailer at a campsite on the lake. I dreamed of going into this solo trip fearless and feeling empowered. Who knew hooking up and towing a travel trailer and spending 48 hours alone in the woods looking over the lake could make a person feel so damned good? Wait, who knew I’d be completely alone in the woods? I was so excited to Fall Camp. I assumed several campers would be there too. In the entire State Park and of all of the different campgrounds throughout the park, there were only a handful of campers, and I was the ONLY camper in my campsite, which in my opinion, had the most […]
