Tantalizing Tidbits of Diet Goodness


The eating healthier lifestyle seems to have really taken hold at the Hedger House. We decided this time to make it about a lifestyle change and not a diet. We are not perfect and allow ourselves an occassional break, but we feel better when we don't stray to far from our calorie allotment. Chance has lost a nice bit of weight and as a result - no longer snores at night. He also just moved back into his extra large shirts... Woo Hoo!
I am slowly making my way back into the smaller pant size in my closet. You know the "they don't fit now, but with a small amount of effort - they very well could" section. I am not talking about the "only in your dreams" section you keep well hidden in the back. The best part is looking in the mirror and not seeing a puffy bloated almost 40 year old looking back. Let's face it - water retention is for the birds!

I thought I would pass along a few products that we have really liked. Please keep in mind that we are calorie counting - so I am not sure how these would work for someone doing weight watchers.

End Of The Road



Most of you know that my relationship with Dr. Pepper has deep roots. It has been a long and faithful one. I am sad to report that we have parted ways. I have now taken up with her evil step-sister, Diet Dr. Pepper. I don't see this pairing really lasting very long. I have used her to get past the loss of my beloved and faithful beverage. The cravings and headaches are becoming a distant memory. I can officially say that I am in recovery and have moved past my Dr. Pepper Addiction. I would not have been so inclined to give her up, but sadly her calories just didn't fit into my calorie accountable lifestyle these days.
