Thank you! Thank you all for the warm welcome back and words of encouragement. Now I remember why I loved this forum so much. The most wonderful people around! @ murfmom - We sound like we are in the same place maybe we can share what we are doing to get started again. I was able to squeeze...

I just wanted to jump back in and say hello...again. I was shocked when I looked at my profile and saw my last visit was Aug. of 2008! I could go into the ups and downs and struggles that life brings but I am sure so many of you understand that. What I do know is that I have not taken care of...

Ok let me try this out and test a smiley too... Thanks Rhondalyn ... the Smiley Central didn't work with my MAC but your link did!

Hi Ladies, I am back! Well I was back from vacation with one post but then got sucked into a huge home project and lost all my computer time. We are getting ready to have a second (much needed with 5 people) bathroom put in our basement. They start work on Monday but we had to empty most of our...

Kathryn, I read (and still have I think) the Sugar Blues too. It also made a big impact on me when I read it about 12 years ago. Just like you I immediately gave up sugar. Since then I have had to give it up a few more times. It seems to slowly sneak back into my diet and gradually turns from...

Thanks for posting this. I think I may print it out and use it to remind myself why I need to stay away from sugar. Ditto on knowing #58 ! ;) Alison

Hi Ladies, I am back from vacation and ready to go back to the healthy life. I had really intended to eat well and workout while I was gone but we stayed with family and were not given the healthiest food choices. I did the best I could but need to really get back to my plan this week...

LOL Tracy I am sorry to send you to those amazing looking cupcakes!! They don't exactly belong on this Healthy Recipes forum do they? :D Well maybe they are healthy compared to making them from a box and a can of icing right?? It is a great blog with fun recipes. Glad you enjoyed it! Alison

Hi Ladies, I wanted to jump online and say hello before we leave for a trip to Maryland tomorrow to visit with DH's family. It's bittersweet because we enjoy going there and will have lots of fun stuff to do with the kids but we had to cancel our actual vacation to Acadia National Park in...

Cendrine, I am glad you liked the site and very glad your dinner turned out well! I tend to make stuff without trying first also. It's risky but really fun when things turn out the way you hope they would. I haven't tried that recipe yet but will have to add it to the list of ones I plan to...

Mmmmm Great recipe.

Shannon I am right behind you! This weekend I am starting Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire. Alison

Hey Ladies! Today has been busy! My mom was nice enough to come up and take care of my three boys while I ran all sorts of errands I didn't want to take them on. I actually got to go grocery shopping at Whole Foods without having to take all three with me!! Whoohoo ..I need one of Rhondalyn's...

Hi Ladies, Another late night check in for me. The summer days fly by so fast! I have to say finding this board has been great in so many ways. I can see so many things we have in common and struggles we share. I also have been having shorter cycles. They were as low as 19 days but have...

This sounds really good. I love the idea of adding avocado. Thanks for sharing the recipe! Alison :)

Debbie, I just wanted to add my sympathy as well. My prayers go out to you and your husband and his family. I know that speaking to them was not an accident and I am so thankful you were given that opportunity. Take care. Alison

Hi Cendrine, I have to tell you I made the Tropical Energy Smoothie from that website for breakfast and it was so good! I adapted it just a little for what I had at home and added some whey protein also. My husband said it was the best smoothie I have made so far! Thanks again for sharing...

Hi Cendrine, Thanks for the link. I love to find new places to get delicious healthy recipes. Do you have any favorites from their list of 100? I know what you mean about getting in a recipe rut. I love finding something new, healthy and simple to make. I love to cook but with 3 children I...

Hi Ladies :) I had a rough week last week getting enough workouts in. I seem to get one full body weight workout in and a few days of walking. I know it's not enough to get the weight off so I hope to make more time this week. Today was a good start. I did Push Pull during my little guy's...

Well I am just getting home from another long day out with my boys. My family had a get together so it was fun but I missed another chance to workout. Having all 3 of my boys home and ready to go do fun stuff has made it hard during the summer to be as consistent as I need to be. I know the...
