Cooking - It's a Must in order to Lose Weight

Happy Sunday!

I hope everyone has had a really great break...tomorrow starts real life again and I'm NOT pleased...however I'm very excited for a few things this week that will float me through the frustrations!

1. I ordered a couple of Trader Joe's cookbooks and I'm extremely excited to get them and start shopping and cooking. There are so many things at Trader Joe's I've never tried because I really wouldn't know what to use them for...this will give me a chance!

2. I also ordered Semi-Homemade Cooking LIGHT with Sandra Lee- that too will be a great guide to cook healthy meals more quickly.

3. I get to go back to my beloved Spin Classes this week...woo hoo!

Today I'm off to the grocery store and will be buying my little car cooler as well as healthy lunch options I can pack on the go. I have my snacks all ready, broken out in baggies between 100 - 200 calories each, and grilled some extra chicken last night for this week's meals.

Here we go!

Welcome...

The creation of this blog is to keep our friends and family in much better "touch" with us...as life gets busy and we don't always stay in touch as often as we should due to everchanging schedules, time constraints, and well...you know how it goes!

Ryan is working full time hours as a server, and in the process of training to be a shift leader for Buffalo Wild Wings...he'll continue to work there through school, which starts again in August. He'll be going to Middle Tennessee State University (MTSU) and majoring in Business Administration.

I am working for Paychex doing outside sales and selling Payroll/Taxpay/HR Benefit administration. It's an AMAZING company and I truly am happy and love the position.

We have our two babies, Brixie and Brady. Brixie is almost 2 now and Brady is about 6 months...what a handful they are! :) But they are the best of friends and keep me from feeling guilty when I don't have time to entertain them.

Hope you all plan to tune in...I'll figure out how to add pictures and then we should be set.
