Hi Marissa, you’re so hysterical with your writing style! I L-O-V-E reading your posts and so appreciate your sweet mention about my wheat berry salad.

It’s obvious you love your hubby or he’d be dead about now … three pounds while eating holiday treats! Oh brother! I’m happy just to maintain — which I didn’t, by the way, but the damage is manageable and I’m back on track living healthy! And that’s what it’s all about, isn’t it. Living life… loving the people around us (even those who lose three pounds eating cookies)… not taking anything too seriously… indulging here and there and always coming back to center … living healthy!

You do a beautiful job of inspiring all of us… I’ll for sure be trying out Biz’s no rise pizza dough and Danica’s Au Gratin potatoes look yummo! They’re on my list to try too.

Thanks so much for your inspiration and your sharing. With great peeps like you, 2010 is gonna rock!

My hubby is really good at “balancing” things out too. I actually just wrote a post about it (to be published tomorrow)…

Happy 2010!

I think it’s totally unfair that hubby’s can eat like that and lose weight. It’s like they just think, “I should drop 3 pounds” and then they do.

Love your food!

I love all that great stuff your hubby does but I think the key is he exercises every morning without fail. I think if we all made that commitment ALONE we’d find ourselves in a different boat. A yacht maybe. With servants. Boy servants. With no shirts on.

What were we talking about?

Happy New Year Marisa!

Some people are just biologically gift and know how much they need to eat without having to count calories at all. Sadly, I was not given this magical power.

Suprisingly, he is emotionally attached. He has a very stressful job and when a situation really gets tough, his stress response is to reach for unhealthy foods (fast food/baked goods). He tries to talk himself out of it, but most times the stress gets the best of him. But, what he doesn’t do is let it linger. He moves on and let’s the incident remain just that – an incident. He doesn’t let it carry over to his other meals and gets back to his “normal” way of eating. I don’t hear him beat himself up about it, but I’m going to ask him more about how he feels when he does that.
