Happy Healthy Monday
Well it’s almost Tuesday now. I am finally done with my blogging internship so I can get back to focusing on my site again. Boy that Kelly McCausey sure teaches you a ton of stuff. I am so thankful for the opportunity. If anyone
followed my love for TV on her site, Family TV Addicts, please know that I will not stop blogging for my love of TV. I hope to either continue there, if Kelly lets me, or start a site of my own. I think I found my passion.
Weight wise goes, my passion is still lost. There are 3 gals here at work doing WW so I hope I can hook up with them to keep me going. We will see how that goes. I am still new here and don’t want to step on any toes. All I know is I have to do something. My homework for tonight is to find 5 new recipes to try that are weight friendly then make my grocery list to go tomorrow.
I hope you all have a good day. Here is a recipe for you.

Hey Karla, that is cool that you did that internship. I am sure you learned loads. Do hook up with your co-workers if IRL accountability will help you reach your goals. Good luck.

OK can I tell you how hungry I am now after seeing that Picture! I say hook up with those people at work for WW. It is better to do it as a group and at work it makes it even better!

I hope you can get in with those co-workers and WW. Even if it’s just to get you started, it might be the thing that can cure your funk.
That dinner looks so delish.

Wow – that recipe looks AMAZING! as for your passion, I’m no expert by any stretch so take my advice with a grain of salt, but there’s a really corny saying but I SWEAR it works: ready for it? NO REALLY READY FOR IT? OK:
Act as if…
that’s it. Act as if you have your passion back what would you be doing? Act as if… so simple that it’s amazing but totally works. Good luck and keep your chin up 🙂

I bet the ladies at work would love to share WW with you! I always feel like the more the merrier and then you have a support at work too. Going to check out your TV stuff!!
Have a great week!
