Last week I bought a Fitbit to help get me motivated to move more, and it has been a fun week…well, when it wasn’t raining. Truffles (my Yorkie) and I went for walks nearly every day last week, including one day when we got caught in a thunderstorm, and he refused to walk any farther so I had to carry him home.

My Weight Loss Journey – Week 17
I didn’t try any fabulous new recipes this past week. I was too busy eating my leftover pizza, and then getting back to my regular meal plan, but I’m hoping to try something new this week so I can report back next Monday.
Quilt Along – Learn to Quilt – Lesson 3
As I mentioned in my last post, Tracey @ It’s a T-Sweets Day is running a learn to quilt series as a Quilt Along and I’ve been following along, trying to make my first quilt. I found some beautiful fabric at Quilty Pleasures, a local quilting shop. If you live in the Ottawa area and are interested in quilting, I recommend checking them out. They have a fantastic fabric selection, and the ladies there are very friendly and helpful.
Quilt Along – Learn to Quilt – Lesson 2
Tracey @ It’s a T-Sweets Day is running a learn to quilt series as a Quilt Along, and I’m happy to say I’ve joined in. Last weekend I went shopping for my fantastic fabric (thanks to the ladies at Quilty Pleasures for all their assistance), and this past week I got all of my pieces cut by following Tracy’s directions from lesson 2.
My Weight Loss Journey – Week 16
This has been another interesting week, and one which has tested me again, to stay on track when I’m out and about, and when I’m just living a normal life. I am trying to make my new way of eating a lifestyle change, so I want to be able to occasionally have a treat, like the yummy pizza I made for the Fantastic Bake Along over the weekend, without feeling guilty, or falling back into old habits.
