There’s no shortage of websites selling it as a dieter’s dream come true. Here is a link to check it out!

Here is a great story about the "Ripple Effect!"
Today my sister and I were so excited to finally use our very first ripple effect card. We were driving around Westbank trying to figure out what to do when we decided to go to McDonalds for ice cream. As we were paying we overheard the drive thru guy putting the next customer on hold when we got REALLY excited and said to one another "THIS IS IT". So we looked at the worker and said "wait a minute, take that persons order and we'll pay for it" he gave us the "these woman are crazy look" and proceeded to take the customers order. We then paid for the order and explained to the McDonalds employee that he was to hand the ripple effect card to the driver of the vehicle behind us. Even though the order was a small one "desserts for a family of 4" we had SO MUCH FUN DOING THIS. We were laughing like little school girls and at the same time trying to secretly peek through our rear view mirror to see who it was we had just slapped an unexpected gesture of kindness on. Our kids in the back seat of our car were now also looking at us wondering what was the big deal. We noticed the driver reading his card and wondered what he might be thinking. No matter how small or large an act of kindness might be, it was an absolute joy and we can't wait to do it again. Everyone should be carrying these golden opportunity cards as we call them in their, wallets, purses, vehicles etc. Thanks So Much For Starting This Amazing Ripple Effect.

Monday. Need I say more. Really Monday’s aren’t that bad, at least we get to hang out together!
Congratulations to our 5 qualifiers who won a “Boarding Pass” for the “Fiesta Finale!” You are a step closer to winning one of the 8 trips to Mexico! More chances to “Click The Coconut” continue.. Good Luck!!
Keep this in mind if you get the munchies today. As we learned in “Things You Need To Know” Thirst can masquerade as hunger, which is one reason dieters should stay hydrated. Now German researchers have found another reason: Water fuels your body's fat burners. For 90 minutes after drinking 16 ounces of chilled water, adults saw their metabolism rise by 24 percent over their average rates.
Friday!
Welcome to your FRIDAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!

Pancakes! Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner!
Welcome to Pancake Tuesday!
We had fun flinging pancakes this morning! Today is "Mardi Gras"/"Fat Tuesday"/"Shrove Tuesday"/"Pancake Day"/"Carnaval", always 46 days before Easter and traditionally the final chance to indulge before the austerity of Lent. In Latin, ‘carne vale' means ‘farewell to meat'. The day is marked by masked balls, lavish costumes, floats, parades, torchlight processions, dancing, fireworks, and feasting on all sorts of foods. Many of the traditions go back to the 14th Century. We of course started a new tradition which was flinging pancakes at the wall to see which pancake would stick better.. one with maple syrup, jam, or butter.. not sure which one won.. but did we ever make a MESS! We flung the pancakes at stars who need to eat more.. Terri Hatcher seemed to get it the worst!
How goes the "Clicking of the Coconut?" Keep on clicking and dialing!! More chances for you to qualify for boarding passes to the Fiesta Finale on the way! 8 people will be leaving for Mexico at the end of the March. How AMAZING would that be!!

Forget the groundhogs from other parts of the country.. for us it’s all about “Marvin” the Marmot! Who I am happy to report is whistling in SPRING!!! We might be delusional from the cold but run with us on this one..
Today in “Things You Need To Know” we discovered that today is the “Midpoint of Winter”, at least statistically speaking. This being a Leap Year, Winter lasts a total of 89 days, meaning the halfway point occurs about midday today. It may not seem like it, but Winter is actually the shortest season.
FRIDAY!!!
Welcome to February! Groundhog Day – Valentine’s Day and more chances for you to win with The Breakfast Club!
Here’s more “Groundhog Day” info for you! It’s an annual celebration based on the old Scottish rhyme that says: “If Candlemas Day is bright and clear, there'll be 2 winters in the year.” It was actually the Teutons (Germans) who first decided that if the Sun was out on “Candlemas Day”, an animal would cast a shadow, predicting 6 more weeks of bad weather (aka ‘second winter’).
Congratulations to our daily qualifiers so far and good luck! We will be reading out names starting bright and early Monday morning for more Fiesta Finale winners.. you could be a step closer to a trip to Mexico!!
Yup.. More snow..
Can you believe that it is already the last day of January? Special memo to Mother Nature.. SPRING PLEASE!!

BIG Stretch it's Monday!
As we learned this morning in "Things You Need to Know" A new survey reveals that SUNDAY is the most sleepless night of the week. This lack of sleep in turn contributes to lack of concentration at work on MONDAY, irritability with co-workers, and even the occasional nap. Yikes.. stay strong you wil make it through OK!
It also happens to be: "Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day", celebrating the padding we all like to pop. Check out THIS websites and kill some time popping!
