A friend of mine told me about this cool app that allows you to get instant feedback from your Facebook friends on whether you should buy something or not (for themselves or as a gift). Here's the link - I think the app is coming out around Black Friday but you can sign up now:<br /><br />www.leapcommerce.comwww.leapcommerce.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05603245306125895414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993815500672701308.post-75539039563699741432011-11-29T00:42:14.789-07:002011-11-29T00:42:14.789-07:00I've decided to nominate one day a week to get...I've decided to nominate one day a week to get the 7 portions of fruit and veg.

Being 33 weeks pregnant, I've pretty much thrown all caution out the window and am just enjoying the food for once. However, in a normal year, I'll usually bake tons of Xmas treats, but send tins of them with my husband to work or pass them out to other friends & neighbors. I get a few that I want, but pass along all of the extra temptation!Megan https://www.blogger.com/profile/02433882145530028479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993815500672701308.post-87158465258013839422011-11-28T15:25:30.363-07:002011-11-28T15:25:30.363-07:00for me it is easy....same diet, same food, 365 day...for me it is easy....same diet, same food, 365 days a year, it is boring and frustrating but better then getting sick<br /><br />I stepped on the scale this morning...2 lbs downCarolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01784257254057007640noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993815500672701308.post-84140554523944614822011-11-28T14:06:23.473-07:002011-11-28T14:06:23.473-07:00Great goals!

If I can keep that stuff to a minimum, I should be OK. I usually eat pretty well when I'm at home, it's just the time at work that gets to me (especially on nightshift when I eat because I just want to be in bed, haha.)Neon Blonde Runnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16782863353830958219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993815500672701308.post-70606362148321382422011-11-28T12:07:27.409-07:002011-11-28T12:07:27.409-07:001.

I love baking, so I'm the one always pawning off my baked goodies to poor, unsuspecting acquantainces. <br /><br />3. The key, for me, is to never, ever feel deprived - I make choices based on what sounds most delicious, and what I would really be devestated to miss out on (dramatic enough?!). And then I eat a moderate amount - just enough to make me feel like I didn't miss out on anything. And balance it with good choices the rest of the time. <br /><br />4. Roasted veg soups - easy, tasty way to fit in some extra servings!giraffyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06643989887305414709noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993815500672701308.post-82524262674124727502011-11-28T11:48:34.966-07:002011-11-28T11:48:34.966-07:00you so "GOT THIS!"

Happy belated birthday, November 27th is a great day to be born since that is mini me's birthday too!! <br />Great goals, I need to get mine down on paper!! I haven't met the 7 fruits and veggies goals once since HBBC started so I know I've been slacking!! I need to get on that!<br />As far as how I avoid the holiday bulge, I don't usually. I'm going to try really hard to avoid most of the treats this year, I don't want to gain any weight, I like how my clothes are fitting right now!!Nicolehttp://becomingamotherrunner.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6993815500672701308.post-70546523859810428912011-11-28T09:51:36.151-07:002011-11-28T09:51:36.151-07:00I definitely need to get on the "eat more veg...I definitely need to get on the "eat more veggies" train.
