So...it's a new month!  We're almost at the end of our  year...

October's winner is Karen.  She won by only three posts...crazy!

Karen also told me about thinnerware.  I thought it would be a perfect giveaway since we've talked the entire year about just a couple of things making a difference in being more healthy and losing weight.

#1-Eat less, smaller portions

#2-Leave something on your plate

#3-Eat small, healthy snacks

#4-Walk at least 20 minutes a day

Thinnerware is a dinner set that helps you to measure your food without an additional measuring cup...it helps you to know what a serving size should be instead of what you think it ought to be.

 

So our contest this month will be to eat less.  Put less on your plate and then leave a little (if you can make yourself do this).  Get  your mind and your body to stop eating so much when you sit down to dinner or a snack or dessert.  Come to the weekly Move it Monday posts and post every day that you eat less than you normally eat.  Practice this month taking less food than you usually do.  The person that takes less food and eats less food the most days will be the winner.  The winner will get two sets of thinnerware (2 cups, 2 plates, 2 saucers). **this does not mean you eat less everyday of the month to the point where at the end of the month that you are eating only a crumb of food for a meal...it means that you are going to eat less every day this month than you did in the month of October.**

Next month (December) will be a big contest...get ready!

smaller. LIFE.

my least favorite thing about traveling is not being able to take the leftovers i leave on my plate. really don't like that. i still have guilt about leaving food on my plate. blame it on catholic schools and the old catholic guilt. ;)
