Oh my gosh! I just learned NEVER to type a long long long blog post on your iPad and then go to another open tab without saving and/or publishing your post! I just lost everything I typed so now to start all over again. Deep breath Lisa. Breathe in, breathe out.......&7)?7ygv7)?7&7(uhvukhvyiytvkn7(;46: okay I'm ready.......
Seems its been a long while since I last wrote so I guess there's lots to catch you up on. Life has just been kinda busy lately and when it's not too crazy it means it's time to sleep! So that about sums it all up. Lol
Let's begin with Weight Watchers. So yes, I have kept my commitment and have gone each week since I signed up. The first week I lost 4.2, then another 1.4, next week was 1.2 and another 1.2 the week after. That brought me down 8 pounds. But then last week I gained .4. So not as bad as I thought but I know I wasn't being on target the days before weigh-in. I was making tons of cake pops and eating a few more than I should. Plus when there's lots of cake pop activity going on there is less home-cooking so easy meals or take-out food suddenly appears. Tomorrow is my next weigh in and I expect to have another slight gain. Yeah I'm human. And though I haven't been keeping track, I have been paying attention. I know when I'm over indulging or when I'm taking care properly so it's not like it ever comes as a surprise either gain or loss. But I went grocery shopping and am back on target for next week. I'm not giving up. It's all a part of life. Each of has our ups and downs, some days and weeks better than others no matter what our circumstances. As far as Goodiebites, that's definitely been an up lately. We had a big Valentines Day cake pop order from Salvatore Ferragamo, the fashion design company. That netted us another nice order just a day later. Another highlight this week was sending a box of Valentines pops to Elvis Duran and the morning crew at Z-100. Not only were they talking about them and eating them on the air, but then my sister called and was on the air speaking with Elvis and promoting Goodiebites. That also got us a big order for April. This was all on top of a nice slew of Valentines orders and this week we have a few birthday orders going out. Slowly we are growing and now we are working on a few new flavors and designs as well as holiday themed pops for St Patricks Day and Easter so like us on Facebook and stay tuned.
I'm trying to figure out what the next steps are with Goodiebites - what is my end goal? A store? Internet only sales? A pop truck? Nahhh, not a truck. But I'm just still unsure what my vision is- and that sucks. Without the vision there's nothing to look ahead to. So that's my goal for the next few days- to figure where I want to take Goodiebites as we grow. I'm so happy to have tomorrow off. That will give me time to work on those new designs hopefully and perhaps it will inspire me with some direction for the future.
Okay all this talk about food has made me want some dinner. Let's go see what healthy meal I can rustle up.
I'll work harder on blogging more and slacking less - in a variety of areas!
