Good morning everyone....Im super excited and motivated about getting healthier. Along with this challenge I have completed my first week on weight watchers and am down 8 pds!! WOOOOHOOOO ....

Aloha!

Just wanted to share with ya'll this really yummy recipe for oatmeal. I've made it that last 2 Sundays and the great thing about it is there is enough for several breakfasts as well as a yummy oatmeal smoothie I am also sharing with you.

2 C steel cut oats
6 C water
2 C Almond milk
1-2 C dried fruit ( i used cranberries and prunes)
1-2 tbs cinnamon

Put all in slow cooker and cook on low for 9-10 hours.

The really cool thing is when you wake up in the morning the smell in the house is amazing!

PB/Oatmeal Smoothie

1 banana
2-3 tbs PB
1 C oatmeal
1/2 c almond milk
1 c plain greek yogurt
1 c ice
1/3 c raw almonds

Really yummy and hearty, meal replacement for sure!
Every journey begins at day 1, well today is that day for all of us!! So excited to be taking this path with all of you. On our way to getting to great place of health & wellness:)

Cheers! Heather~

Update

Hello all!

I hope your first day of the challenge was a success! I tallied my points for yesterday and I had 27....forgot the food journal.  I have sent you all an invite to login and have administrative capabilities.  Not sure what that means exactly but I think it means you will have backdoor access :)  Anyhow, please feel free to post your points, or yummy recipes or acts of aggressive behavior in the continued absence of potato chips!!
 Still working on blog, I am long on ideas but short on time :) Keep ya posted.

My breakfast today:
1 frozen banana
2 tsp natural chunky pb
1 c plain greek yogurt
1c almond milk
3 c spinach
Put all in a blender and enjoy!

This was REALLY GOOD!

Aloha for now

Printable 8 week Challenge

http://sixsistersstuff.blogspot.com/2012/01/8-week-printable-weight-loss-get.html

Welcome!

As you can see, this blog is in it's BEGINNING STAGES! I will do my best to make it pretty and user friendly by tonight . My goal is to create a place here where we can post our points on a weekly basis as well as share recipes, diet tips, diet frustrations, etc. For those who want to take this ride, the buy in is $25.00 :) We will start tomorrow by weighing ourselves at home ( we do not have to share this number on the blog or anywhere else!) and tracking our points under WEEK 1 on the chart I have sent you. If you don't have the chart I will attach it somehow to this blog. Bear with me peeps, this is all new to me :) Happy Sunday!
