I feel like there are a lot of 2 week, 5 week, 52 week clean eating / Advocare / Insert Your fave Cleanse / challenges going on lately. I’ve been watching other’s weight loss and toning progress and getting super motivated!

Examples: Janetha’s 24 Day challenge and mama Laughlin’s 2 Week Cleanse.

This time of year is always a challenge for me. I love all the holiday food that Oct 31st – Jan 1st bring – Reese’s PB Cups, Pumpkin Pie, Stuffing, Eggnog, Tamales…. Yes.

But, I often end up feeling out of control and in the past this is the time of year when I join Weight Watchers out of desperation. For whatever reason WW doesn’t work well for me so I end up quitting.

(I know, I could have real problems so I’m not complaining just talking to myself online.)

This year I don’t want to repeat the cycle so I’m doing my own mini-5 week challenge to stay accountable to myself. It’s nothing crazy, but a personal plan to try and stay ‘normal’ (which is obviously hard for me). I just wanted to  share my brain thoughts this morning and let ya know I weighed in, took pics and checked my body fat yesterday (for the first time in months) to keep myself in check for the next few weeks – I’m aiming to maintain during this time more than anything else!

{forcing myself not to say my usual inappropriate phrase after “maintain…”}

Last night I made an remarkable and ‘clean’ dinner of eggs with asparagus and my roasted butternut squash recipe. love this.

Now I am off to try and get in front of a few blog posts before Thanksgiving is here. I plan on logging off Thursday except for Camiseta Selección de fútbol de Ecuador the obligatory T-day dinner picture.

In other Food news…

In other news – did you see the Food Network’s live feed thing where Giada almost chopped off her finger? I just caught the end of it when it already happened, but the way they were talking about the cut it seemed like a big deal! <- pic on that link of her finger. I am 100% convinced that will happen to me one day because I have NO idea how to chop stuff. plus I have been told I “open boxes like I have a death wish” – which happens daily with all the stuff I get for RER! RIP Monican. I want to go to culinary school, but that’s Camiseta FC Tokyo not in the cards so I hope YouTube is Camiseta TSG 1899 Hoffenheim a sufficient replacement…

Question: Are you working Thursday or Friday?
