$1.50/2 Quaker Whole Hearts or Quaker Oatmeal Squares

Back finally :) . . .
Sorry for being gone so long. My life’s been crazy these last few months but things are finally settling down now. :)
I’ve become more focused than ever on getting down to a healthy weight. I’ve joined the Jillian Michaels online program . ( You kind of have to be pretty serious about your weight loss goals if you’re following Jillian Michaels plan) 
It’s really budget friendly, I think it’s a little over $50 each quarter. I”ll be following her food guidelines as best as I can on my budget, but I also want to prove that you can eat really healthy on a strict budget.
I’ll be posting my weight and my weight loss goals on Monday.
Other posts you can expect to see in addition to my healthy on a budget focus are:
Martin’s deals
CVS deals
Rite Aid Deals
Target Deals
Food Lion deals
Fashionista Friday’s (I love shopping and fashion so I’m really looking forward to starting these soon.)
Weekly Menu Plan
I’m so glad to have the opportunity again to share my love of of a healthy lifestyle on a budget with all of you. You’ll be seeing a lot of fashion posts as well. I truly believe that it is possible to eat healthy on a budget and I look forward to the new challenge the Jillian Michaels program provides. Stay tuned for a CVS scenario tonite.
Weight loss goals for 2013
I’ve struggled just like everyone else over the past two holidays with my weight loss goals. I’ve gained a lot of weight over the last month and a half or so. My current weight is around 200. I am determined to get rid of this weight once and for all.
One of my resolutions for this year is to focus on loosing weight. I’ll be following weight watchers from home, while factoring in some of the things I’ve learned while following other diet plans. If I can conquer this weight I know that anyone can and I look forward to seeing every ones progress in the new year. I’ll be eating moderately tomorrow and going on a very strict diet on Tuesday.
Why am I following Weight Watchers again? I know that it works for me. Ten years ago I lost 70 pounds on the plan. I’ve learned a lot since I’ve started the plan I’ve been off an on it for the last 4 years or so. I’ll also be factoring in a lot of exercise and focus on whole foods for the most part.
I look forward to meeting my goals next year and watching you do the same.
Have a Happy and Safe New Years Celebration.
