I just heard about the WhoNu brand of cookies, claiming to be “nutrition rich” compared to the other leading brands. Yes, they actually use the words “nutrition rich” in their marketing! So, I immediately thought okay, nutritious cookies must mean whole grains like oatmeal and lower sugar content, right? So I googled, and found their [...]

Bob Harper Biggest Loser TV Commercial for Quaker Oatmeal Squares Cereal
What’s up with Bob Harper endorsing processed cereal? He’s in a new TV ad for Quaker Oatmeal Squares, trying to convince America how wonderful this processed cereal is. I understand that a person needs to make a living, but it’s very disappointing that he would choose such a poor food product to promote. Shame on [...]
Can’t Lose Weight? Check Your Coffee Cup!
I was having trouble understanding why a certain someone in my life (who shall remain nameless…hint hint DH) was having trouble losing more weight, even though he was basically eating the same food as me. Sure, he probably isn’t as diligent as I am, but there still had to be more of a reason. His [...]
PediaSure SideKicks – Who Feeds This Stuff to Their Kids?
I saw a TV ad for PediaSure Sidekicks last night. I’m sure it’s been on a million times, but this time I really paid attention. http://pediasure.com/kid-nutrition-products/sidekicks-commercial Two moms were watching their kids play soccer on the field, and one mom says that her son is sluggish and maybe they shouldn’t have stopped off at the [...]
Stupid Domino’s Pizza Commercial

Their new commercial is trying to give the impression that their cheese comes from happy grazing dairy cows in a pasture! The commercial shows a “panel study” group discussing how they don’t trust the ingredients that Domino’s uses, and [...]
Time to Do Better
Well, our last summer vacation is over! We had a really great summer, but truthfully, part of me is glad that we’re done with vacations for now. I didn’t revert all the way back to old ways, but with each week on vacation, I got more and more comfortable with eating bad unhealthy foods. Yes, [...]
Back from Week Long Vacation – 148 lbs
Came back yesterday from a week long RV/ATV vacation. It was lovely. Lots of nature! Lots of time to just relax and have fun! Taking my mind off everything at home. I didn’t even bring my laptop with me. I did bring the dSLR camera, but I rarely took any photos. My iPhone camera worked [...]
148.6 Phew Post-Vacation!
Phew. We were on a week’s RV camping vacation last week, and I ate some horrible foods! I didn’t know what to expect. Well, okay, yes, I DID expect to come home and weigh myself this AM and be on the heavier side. I was relieved to find out that I’m okay. Phew. I kept [...]
Do You Want Chips With Those Hips?
Ugh I ordered a lobster roll and yeah it came with chips on the side. Why did I eat them!? Why!????
Pretzels? Or Ice Cream Snack?
Can you believe a small bag of Rold Gold pretzels has 280 calories – there’s 2.5 servings in one bag! It’s all sodium and white flour! I think eating a small ice cream would be more satisfying, and I should of had ice cream instead!
