I love quotes :)

I always forget just how much I really love quotes until I start looking them up! Here are some good ones that I found today :) They really can make you smile when you are feeling down :) Hope you enjoy! 1 "Sometimes you have to stand alone to prove that you can stand." 2 "Find a guy that will stay awake, just to see you sleep" 3 "Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you respond to it." 4 "Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened." 5 "When I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew." 6 "No one can go back and make a new beginning, but everyone can start here and make a brand new end." 7 “Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow” 8 "If you love somebody, let them go. If they return, they were always yours. If they don't, they never were." 9 "When he kisses you he isn't doing anything else. You're his whole universe, and the moment is eternal b

Weekend Schmeekend....

Okay so I officially quit trying to do WW on the weekends.... well not officially quit, but it is tough! I am not doing that great at it!! I have no clue how to get myself together either! LOL Especially on loooong weekends.... I def. noticed that I do make some better choices automatically along with not eating sooooo much of one thing, so that is something different for me! I went out Friday night for a little bit for my friend Kristen's birthday.... It was fun! She sent this pic her and I and I thought the it was cute, so I decided to post it! It's funny to see myself looking skinnier. I do not feel that I look any different, but then I see pics and I am pleasantly surprised. It's weird! Hope that everyone had a great weekend and I hope that this week of rain flies by! Only 15 days left of work for me and I can't wait... I am def. looking forward to spending alot of time hanging with my girlfriends and going to the beach! I'm TRYING my best to get out of my funk

Okay..Round 59539529

Well, obviously my fresh start over the weekend didn't go so well. I am still in a funk...trying to shake it! Each day goes up and down and up and down... Ugh... I just wish that I could jump into the future to see where it will lead me and know that everything is going to be allright.... BUT that's not how things work, so here I am trucking along day by day reminding myself that everything happens for a reason and I will be okay :) With that being said...whenever you are in a funk, you turn to your Best Friends to pull you through...well my best friend just happens to be about 11 months preggo...she was due on Friday! Poor thing.... but needless to say we had a preggo style eating filled weekend! From hoagies and chips all the way to a reese's peanut butter cup blizzard! YUM to the UM!!

Convenient

This is pretty convenient b/c it has both the point calculator and the activity calculator.... I added it to my website links on the right side as well :) http://www.meganandjack.com/points_calculator.htm

I did want to write about my skinny caramel latte from Starbucks.(3 points for a grande, 2 points for a tall) .. I didn't like the skinny vanilla one, but for some reason the caramel one sounded fantabulous today.... so I got it and I don't really like it...LOL if you like coffee, you will def. enjoy....I think next time I would get extra caramel..... but better yet, I'll just stick to my morning tea from DD, can't go wrong with that one!

Weirdest...

So I wore my jeans last night for a couple hours and when I was wearing them I wasn't super happy with them. The one seam on my right leg was goofy and they were starting to stretch out and I wasn't in love with the color. They just didn't feel as rewarding as they should of if that makes any sense.... they kind of just seemed like another old pair of normal jeans... so when I got home, I decided that today I would take them back and start over looking for a new pair.... So with that being said, I went back to Old Navy this morning and returned the jeans, then headed back to the jean section and grabbed a million different pairs in 6's and ready for this.....one pair in 4! My friend told me the other day that someone told her that since jeans always seem to stretch try them in a smaller size. So I figured what the hell, I'll try them... Well I went into the dressing room with my 4 million pairs of jeans and began to try them on. I got to the 3rd pair and it was
