Happy 3rd Blogiversary To Me!

Three years ago today I wrote my very first blog post on what was my first true start to this never ending journey of health & wellness.  Along the way the blog has gone through many changes from Confessions of a Curvy Girl on blogger, my switch over to WordPress, with a new name – Life, Health & Fitness and now as The New Chapter.  Yes, the blog has had a lot of looks and a few names.  🙂

In those three years, I lost 100 lbs and subsequently gained back 20+ lbs, got married, ran several 5Ks, a 10K, (sort of) trained for a half marathon, skied after 10 years, made some wonderful real-life friends and most of all, learned some amazing things about myself!!!

What started out as a way to talk about my Weight Watchers experiences with a handful of people has turned into a huge community.  One that provides daily inspiration, support, encouragement and friendship.  Never would I have guessed that blogging would turn out to be such a huge part of my life.

PS.  Be on the look out later on this week for a special anniversary giveaway!

Now, on to Supper.  On the menu ce soir…. Chorizo, Caramelized Onion & Red Pepper Pizza.  Sounds pretty freaking good doesn’t it? 🙂

As per usual, I cheated with a store-bought, thin crust. 🙂

Topped with a drizzle of olive oil.

For optimal flavour, the base of the pizza really counts – tomato paste, oregano, thyme, basil, rosemary, red pepper flakes & parmesan cheese.

Aren’t my flowers cute? 😉 (Yes, I had way more chorizo slices then shown here!)

Et voilà, a delicious pie!  I was in pizza heaven.

Half of the pizza was 540 calories.

Alright, I know, enough of the pizza! ;-P

Another day of staying with my calorie budget, whoohoo!  Now I must exercise.  Tomorrow I’ve got a gym date with my Mom too.  I’m now off to catch up with all of you.

Oh, and in case you’re catching up from the weekend, here’s what I was up to:
