A bite of bling

I don't know about you, but every time I start to watch what I eat, in other words, when ever I start a (another) diet, I crave the no-no items.

They start to look "priceless".

And, taste priceless too!

That makes me think of the expression.... You are what you eat.

CHANGE and a Giveaway

Change...it doesn't just happen. You have to work at it especially when it comes to eating better to improve your health. This isn't rocket science I know, but it's crazy how many things I have wanted to change in my life, yet I kept doing the same thing over and over expecting different results. (Definition of insanity)

Change doesn't have to mean boring flavorless food. According to a recent survey by Yoplait Fiber One, Americans are fed up with flavorless, boring snacks – and claim they are a contributor to diet failure.
Men and women across America have declared flavorless, boring snacks are a contributor to the downfall of their dieting success. According to a recent survey conducted by Opinion Research Corporation (Infogroup) on behalf of Yoplait® Fiber One™ yogurt¹, more than half of female participants have been on a diet at some point in their lives. These participants claim their dieting efforts are derailed by a lack of tasty snacks, describing the typical diet foods as “flavorless.” Luckily, help is on the way for dieters who are bored with tasteless snacking options.

One solution is Yoplait Fiber One Blueberry yogurt. With 50 calories, 5 grams of fiber and 0 grams of fat, Yoplait Fiber One Blueberry yogurt is a perfect solution, packed with real fruit and the great taste of blueberries that you’ll love. As an added bonus, the deliciously creamy yogurt also contains vitamins A and D and is a good source of calcium.

I was provided with a coupon, information, a prize pack for review and a prize pack for giveaway by Yoplait and Fiber One through MyBlogSpark. They are very giving...and want to be part of your positive change. I received this great gift package with a VIP Coupon for a free sample of the new flavor (this coupon has expired, but they are working on providing something similar...better), as well as a fitness journal and pen, sport towel, water bottle and blueberry stress ball.


They would also like to offer the same thing to one of you. Here is how:

Bruised banana and Rose Colored Glasses....


I'm sitting here eating my bruised banana wishing it was a piece of banana cream pie. But...butt...since I am on another weight loss roller coaster my imagination is the only thing that will be eating pie. That's not completely true... You see, I am the worst dieter! I might eat less of the things I love, but I will eat it. Like many, <---saying that makes me feel better, I am an inconsistent dieter. I've been fancy and called it a lifestyle change, a new way of life, and a plethora of other feel good titles, but in reality it's a diet because in my perfect rose color glass wearing world I could eat what I want and not gain a pound.
I have been wanting to write on my blog, but I've noticed my inability to share and connect with others lately. I'm only 75% present when I'm talking face to face with someone outside of my husband. I'm not sure if it's this diet or something else, but I'm going to snap out of it. Realizing the problem is the only way to start to fix it...right.

Any who, there you have it. Silence, diet and bruised bananas. Now, I'm off to eat my boiled egg. Yummmm Yummmm

I need help....
What are the best foods to snack on? What are your diet secrets?

*Thanks for the prayers, not for my diet, for my dad. He is at home and doing great!

This diet has been given a label...it's getting serious.
