Green Girl Giveaway!
I am doing a Green Girl Giveaway!.

Anyone is welcome to enter. All you need to do is to leave a comment on this post letting me know what your favorite low calorie snack item is. For an additional entry you can post about the giveaway on Twitter or Facebook and just let me know by adding another comment. I will be announcing the winner on Thursday, May 13. There will also be a 2nd place prize which is a pink 34 oz. insulated water pitcher. Good luck to all of you!!!
Thanks for all your comments yesterday. My mom decided not to cancel the cruise after all. I felt like I got kicked in the gut when I thought she had cancelled though. I have been shopping with the trip in mind and have set goals around it etc. so I was surprised when she mentioned not going. She sent me an email about 11:30 a.m. yesterday saying she had calmed down and that we were still going. I know it was not right of me not to call her for Mother's Day but sometimes I would rather avoid then deal with her. Character flaw I know but it what it is. Oh, the joy of the mother/daughter relationship.
Hoping the scale gods are kind tomorrow. I got lots of walking in on Saturday but haven't done much exercise since plus I have had some sodium heavy meals. All I can do is keep pushing forward right? Well that is about it for today. Until next time...

ReplyDeletelo-cal snack would probably be a piece of fruit. Glad things are on the mend with your mom. I understand about the whole feeling obligated to call mom on Mother's Day, that is how I felt this year. I don't want my kids to feel that way. I feel like I should celebrate being a mother(what a priviledge!) rather than my kids celebrating me being thier mother.
Fave low-calorie snack is grapes! I like them half-frozen :)
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about mama-drama... :( But glad the trip is back on!
I'm glad your trip is back on!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite low cal snack is fat-free sugar-free chocolate pudding. Yum!
I love wasa crackers with a little bit of fruit and a serving of cheese. Mmmm. Good.
ReplyDeleteMiss you! Be back soon. Tomorrow I hope.
