Warmer weather is coming!!

Warmer weather is coming and the layers will start to come off.  If you weren’t already thinking about it, you probably are thinking about dropping a few pounds right about now.  I’m getting ready to be offline for a little while (I’m in the process of moving and have no idea when I’ll have the internet up and running).

 

Here are some great websites that are updated regularly to help you get some good ideas, great recipes, and great motivation:

Wish us luck – it’s quite a move, but we’ll be in warm weather and will be able to get our workout on by doing outside activities all the time! (well, most of the time)

 

Have a great week.

 

Yours in health, wellness, and beauty,

MyPyramid.Gov

It’s been a loooonnnnnggg time since I put this website on my blog.  I’ve loved it since the day it came out.  It helps you figure out what foods and amounts are right for you – it’s no longer one-size-fits-all.

They have Podcasts now.  (There’s always something new and exciting on their website!_

Mindless Eating

I was sitting at the airport recently, and happened to glance over and see that the gentlemen next to me had a folder with the pyramid from MyPyramid.Gov’s website.  Because I am so excited about the new Food Pyramid, I started up a conversation.  He’s their Executive Director – imagine my excitement!! (for those of you that have known me a while, I was ALL about that website when the new Food Pyramid first came out)

 

His name is Brian Wansink and he wrote this fascinating book:

Happy Reading!
