'Fess Up Friday 'n Win $55

It's time to fess up. I think Fridays are a good day to fess up. Maybe we should do it every Friday. What do you think? Getting something off your chest and out in the open is good for you. That's why we are told in the Bible to confess to one another.
Okay, so I will 'fess up and tell you I have been completely lacking in self control. I have gained several pounds, have to wear my "fat jeans" every day (after I stretch them out!) and crave mocha lattes daily. It's getting ridiculous. Really. I resolve to do better, but fail daily. I love to eat healthy normally, and love mostly raw food normally, so what's this about? I think it's emotional eating.
When I was younger (and always thin) I couldn't care less about food. I ate if I needed it, and couldn't eat at all if I were emotional. The older I get the more I eat and less active I am. Phooey. I hate that.

So, there's my latest issue. I'm sure there will be another, but for now, this one is what I'm 'fessing.

By the way, would you like to win $55 to spend at CSN stores any way you like?
*Then sign in the Mr. Linky for 1 entry,
*leave a comment for another,
 *write a blog post 'fessing up to something yourself and mention my blog post with a link back here for another.
* Sign up to "follow" my blog if you haven't yet, and that will add another entry for you. ~Make sure if you are a new follower you let me know that in the comment or I won't know!~
All that would get you 4 entries! 
 If you don't have a blog, that's okay, just leave me a comment and you will still be entered.

CSNstores.com  has over 200 stores, and you can buy just about anything from a blender to a purse to baby furniture. Some of the stores do price matching, and some free shipping. I love it!

*Next Friday I will put all your entries in a bowl and let my son choose randomly. I'll post the winner as well as contact you by email, so be sure and leave me that in the comment if you don't have a blog. The winner will get a promo code for $55 to spend!
BTW again,  they have a new store with some really incredible (but short-lived sales) that you may want to check out. The store is called Joss & Main.

  2. I'm right there with you! What is the deal with my "fat jeans" being too snug? This winter seems particularly difficult. Last year at this time, I was snackin' on sprouts and raw cabbage salad. Not this year - it's bread, brownies, and burritos! Help!

  5. Hey lady, I love you, too! And I don't even want to talk about those fat jeans ... I've resorted to "fat skirts" with elastic waistbands; and I really, really have got to start drinking some green smoothies and exercising!
    And of course I follow you :) .

    Thanks dear lady.

    Hugs from Texas,
    Catherine :)

  10. One day, my Dad and I went to Seattle to go to a GSAS (Greater Seattle Aquarium Society) to hear a lecture about Discus (Special tropical fish) from Dick Au. After the lecture, there was a small auction and I bought some plants and fish. Now the fish I bought were Lamprologus ocellatus 'isanga' and Lamprologus brevis (tanganyikan cichlid). I got 10 'isanga' and 5 brevis. The 'isanga' came in two bags, each with five fish and one of the bags was leaking. Once we got home at 12:00am, I was tired and decided the fish would be fine in the bags overnight (they get shipped across the country after all). When I woke up, five of my 'isanga' had died. I was so sad. What I am fessing up to is being lazy, I should have put them in the aquarium immediately. Does CSN have aquarium supplies? I certainly hope I win. -Caton

  15. Hi Dalyn!
    Thanks for being real. I confess to having put on more weight than I care to, and it's not muscle! I just joined the Sugar Detox challenge over at www.naturallyknockedup.com. You don't have to be pregnant or trying to be to enjoy that blog! Great tips for natural living. Today I started back to Power90. No P90X until I stick with this for at least 90 days! Trust me, I'm okay with that. :)
