While you are going cold turkey on the chai latte, you can think of me…here it is Jan. 6 and I have had NO VICES IN 2008!!! I haven’t had a drink, haven’t smoked (I’m pretty much a social smoker…never was addicted) and haven’t had sex. See what starting the new year in a psych ward can do for you?

Oh Haley-O, I LOVE your new blender!!! And it’s a Breville… squeeeee! I got me the Breville juicer for Christmas, the blender’s bad-ass brother, King of all juicers! Not only are you and Soul Sista’s for sure, our appliances are related.

What kind of dildo do you own? Is it pink like mine?

Happy new year! I always read your blog when I’m stuck waiting for planes at the airport, but I haven’t figured out how to comment yet… so here is a year (or atleast a few days worth of comments)

First – Scary about the blender, I must go home now and check what mine is made of. You totally made the right decision to return it. YUck.

#2- UGGS – I’ve found something BETTER and no animals are skinned (they don’t kill the ducks for down right?) NOrth Face Nuptse boots. They are soooo comfy and warm and water resistant and not really that expensive! Check em out. (the pictures on line look a little funny, they are much cuter on!

Best diet.. ahem, I mean lifestyle webprogram I’ve come across. It tracks what you eat calories etc, so you do have to obsess a little about the whole food thing, but the really cool thing is that you can choose other things to track like vitamins and minerals. You can see how much iron vs calcium vs pottassium you are getting. It’s really kind of eye opening and makes you realize that it is important to think about the food you eat. It takes a little time to set up and some dedication but it works.

Happy New Year lovely Haley, love ya!
You are inspiring me to give up my lovely Second Cup Vanilla bean latte. It does not come sugar free unfortunately and the sugar has been making me feel mighty guilty for months. wah.
Oh and so glad you got the other blender, it looks awesome!
Happy Happy New year, hope it is filled with lots of joy and blessings for you and your gorgeous family.

You should try the South Beach diet. it really is a very sensible diet. Yes you go 2 weeks with no carbs but then you bring them back…but the GOOD carbs. Whole Grain bread and rice. I’ve slipped off the wagon but will be back on Jan. 20.

Silly to try to do it before I visit my mom….she eats for today…as she should…since who knows what tomorrow will bring. She eats a lot of chocolate ice cream.

It is not just the white sugar (Brown sugar is just as bad.) It is the white bread and white rice and all the processed food with that awful high fructose corn syrup. Potatoes and corn are pretty high in carbs as well. If you take the time to read the South Beach diet book it really does make a lot of sense.

The first time I did the diet I could not believe how lovely and sweet a piece of fruit tasted after 2 weeks with our sugar! We do get addicted.

And while it is hard to get back in the Good carb groove I have to say my body feels so much healthier when I am!

It’s hard for me though…an Irish Girl…to give up her potatoes! Sweet potatoes are good but there is nothing like a baked potato smothered in butter and sour cream and salt.

Happy 2008!
