<span style="font-size: large;">Yes, yes, yes! I've said it once...I've said it twice...and I'm saying it AGAIN! I am getting back into my fitness mode!! </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When your pants don't fit you, your snap on your jeans pop open from time to time during the day, your muffin top is growing into more of a spilled over cupcake, then yeah...it's time to do something about it. Oh...not to mention the fact that you tipped the scales at a weight you've NEVER weighed before. Yikes! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For me, personally, I've NEVER weighed 150 or over before in my life prior to stepping on the scale a few months ago at the doctor's office. When that happened, I was shocked..but never did a thing about it. I gained 4 lbs (taking my weight from 142 to 146) in 2 weeks, then an additional 6 lbs. in another 3 weeks. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not pretty!! So....I'm back at it again! And I'm proud to say that although it's only baby steps, I'm doing it! I hit the treadmill bright and early this morning and jogged a half mile. It was a 8 minute jaunt, but hey...I did it. :) </div>

<br />
<center>I remember when I first started this particular blog. It was all about my wedding planning! Sharing all the ideas I had found, from my DIY Invites, to my Welcome Bags, to TWO Reception planning, the whole works!! <div style="text-align: center; width: 420px;">
</div>
</center><center><br /></center><center>I also came across various posts regarding life, football, my cakes, my crafts, and just about everything you can think of!! I USED to blog just about EVERY.SINGLE.DAY!!</center><center><br /></center><center>I took some time this morning to take a stroll down "Memory Lane" via my Blog, and I am sooo happy that I blogged everything that I did. Some people would say "Why did you blog about that?" or..."Why did you share 'that' picture?". Well, I did it for this very reason!! So I can, in the future, look back and read my blog and see what was going on in my life at that point and time. After all, this blog was essentially created as a way for me to journal my every day life and one day, when I'm old(er) and grey(er) I have all of my memories here!!</center><center><br /></center><center><center>I've noticed a BIG gap between posts which actually started after we returned from our Cruise Wedding in April of 2010. Wow! </center><center><br /></center><center>There are things so precious in life that we all take for granted and I, for one, have seen a lot of things in MY life that I personally have taken for granted ~ so, I'm totally going to re-evaluate MY life and everything that's in it, around it, supporting it, and the like!!</center><center><br /></center><center>While we're a little more than half way thru the month of May ~ just about reaching the half way point of 2012, I'm going to make a few Life Goals and start NOW!!</center><center><br /></center><center>* I'm going to commit to blogging at least once a day for the next 365 days</center><center>* I'm going to make a task list every night before I go to bed for what I want to accomplish the next day</center><center>* I'm going to commit to 'walking' once a day</center><center>* I'm going to get back in the routine of making my dinner menu's on a weekly basis</center><center>(and sticking to it)</center><center>* I'm going to have some quiet time for about 20 minutes a day!!</center><center><br /></center><center>Let's see if I can hold myself to this!!!</center></center><center>Below is a little Photo Gallery of some past Photos here from this Blog! Enjoy!!</center>

<b><u>What is Velata</u></b>?</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Velata is a fun, family-friendly way to experience chocolate fondue. Velata warmers include an exclusive, food-safe dish in which you can warm the world’s finest quality Belgian chocolate for an easy, enjoyable fondue experience.</div>

<b><u>What's the difference between a Scentsy warmer and a Velata warmer?</u></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both;">
Unlike Scentsy warmers, Velata’s silicone dish is suitable for warming and serving food, is microwave-safe and dishwasher-safe. Velata warmers use a patent-pending technology that keeps the melted chocolate at the perfect temperature — warm enough to stay melted, but not so hot that it scorches.</div>

Back in the late 80's, early to mid 90's, Rubber Stamping was the craze!! Then it was Scrapbooking. <br />
<br />
While I'm not a very good Scrapbooker, I love to make Cards. One of my friends, Callie, she is an avid scrapbooker and she creates some great lay outs! I just can't seem to grasp the creativity in scrapbook layouts. My forte is Cards. I love making Cards! <br />
<br />
Callie and I have partnered together and joined <a href="http://www.scrapingirls.myctmh.com">Close to My Heart</a>. Close to My Heart is a Scrapbooking/Rubber Stamping Direct Sales Company whose mission is: <br />
<br />
<blockquote>We show you how to celebrate relationships through discovering your creativity, to preserve and share the moments that matter most.</blockquote><br />
Today, I had the pleasure to attend a Card Workshop where we had the opportunity to make as many cards as we wanted in a two hour time period. I've never been to an event like this, and I haven't rubber stamped in such a long time, so needless to say I was a little intimidated for the first 20 minutes or so. <br />
<br />
We were told everything would be supplied. The papers, embellishments, stamps, ink pads, the works! And they were! However, I see these women walking in with baskets or totes with all sorts of Scrapbooking material.....and then I started worrying even more. Several more women walked in empty handed so then I started to feel a little better. Those other women, they were just over achievers...LOL. <br />
<br />
Anyway, I wanted to share with you some of the cards I created today!! Now remember, I am very rusty at this so....please excuse all the little misgivings you may find! :D<br />

If you're interested in checking out our Website, please feel free to do so. Here's the link: --------> <a href="http://www.scrapingirls.myctmh.com">Scrapin' Girls ~ Close to My Heart Independent Consultants</a><br />
<br />
If you're a Scrapbooker and would like to join our Virtual Monthly Club, please email me at: scrapingirls@gmail.com <br />
<br />
How our Monthly Club works: You're committing to a monthly purchase of a minimum of $15 from our Close to My Heart Idea Book; there will be one month where YOU will be the hostess and reap all the Hostess Benefits ~ Free Product, Half Off Items as well as the Stamp of the Month for FREE. Again, it's only a $15 minimum order per month and in return you have the opportunity to be the Hostess during a month or perhaps two throughout the year. Currently we have 8 ladies participating. There's still time to join in for January ~ or you can start in February if you'd like!! <br />
<br />

</span></div><div style="text-align: center;">Let's see if I can discipline myself to go back to blogging on a daily basis!!!</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEhU1rpai_4t3Ti0-0bayuPms7aDupvJz8tAQJrw0eYIESCowoYTzLxke6JQIon3kEmhyphenhyphenpP3yfa2zU0AJQ2jDIxGRl5kQMy_ocQeuyfe94sMc0TsNctMrVwlptMfz8HFih9yXRiEZcC9Au/s1600/I%2527m+Back+by+popular+demand%2521.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgEhU1rpai_4t3Ti0-0bayuPms7aDupvJz8tAQJrw0eYIESCowoYTzLxke6JQIon3kEmhyphenhyphenpP3yfa2zU0AJQ2jDIxGRl5kQMy_ocQeuyfe94sMc0TsNctMrVwlptMfz8HFih9yXRiEZcC9Au/s400/I%2527m+Back+by+popular+demand%2521.jpg" width="400" /></a></div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">For me, 2011 wasn't a very eventful year. Although we did go on an impromptu, last minute Cruise in October, that's about all the traveling that we did. Which is quite unusual for us. We normally go to Minnesota at least twice during the year, however this year we didn't even go once! The year flew by so quickly ~ and when the Holidays rolled around, we totally were not in the mood</div><div style="text-align: center;">to do ANY celebrating whatsoever! We did host our Annual Gile Holiday Party, which was an amazing success, complete with awesome White Elephant Gift Exchange!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">I made some wonderful new friendships with some pretty amazing individuals which I am truly grateful for! So in that sense, I don't regret 2011.......yet I don't think it'll go down in the books as</div><div style="text-align: center;">an "awesome" year for the Gile family here in California!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">With that being said, here's the last page in our book of 2011.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bck6uwTaw-I/TwCPNMtKzVI/AAAAAAAABnQ/Dx2Jeivoy5k/s1600/The+End.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="235" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-bck6uwTaw-I/TwCPNMtKzVI/AAAAAAAABnQ/Dx2Jeivoy5k/s320/The+End.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">So, let's talk about what's new! There are several 'important' new beginnings for me:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">1) I have been a <a href="http://www.scentbyscent.com/" target="_blank">Scentsy Consultant</a> for 4 months now.</div><div style="text-align: center;">2) I'm a <b>very new </b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/PaparazziWithShelli" target="_blank">Paparazzi Jewelry & Accessories Consultant</a></div><div style="text-align: center;">3) I will be treating both the above businesses as my <i><b>'REAL JOB'</b></i> (as some people say I don't have)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">In 2010 it was one of my yearly Goals to read 100 books in the year. I accomplished just that. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Last year, despite the fact that I listed all my 2011 Goals & Wishes for the year, </div><div style="text-align: center;">(which you can read -----> <a href="http://shellisweddingblog.blogspot.com/2011/01/2011-goals-wishes.html" target="_blank"> here</a>.)</div><div style="text-align: center;"> Seldomly did I even attempted to reach said goals. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">THIS YEAR, I am going to strive to simultaneously accomplish all of my goals I set</div><div style="text-align: center;">as well as cross things off of My Bucket List!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">In a completely separate Blog Post, I'm going post the following lists:</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">* 2012 Goals & Wishes</div><div style="text-align: center;">* My Life's Bucket List</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Here's to hoping you all can help keep me accountable for <u style="font-weight: bold;">everything </u> on my lists!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Have an AMAZING 2012!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<center>Not only is is National Blog Posting Month, but more importantly, it's National Diabetes Awareness Month as well!<br />
<br />
Diabetes is not a fun thing to have to deal with on a daily basis. I should know. For me, what started out as the usual Gestational Diabetes when I was pregnant with my first child. He ended up weighing 10 lbs. 5 oz. at birth. Yes...and I was only 115 at the time. After childbirth, my diabetes went away. Only to return during my second pregnancy. Again, after the birth of my daughter, the diabetes went away. She was 9 lbs. 2 oz. at birth. Six years later with the pregnancy of my third and final child, I was diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes yet again. Although my youngest daughter was my smallest weighing only 8 lbs. 5 oz., the diabetes never went away. I now have Type 2 Diabetes and have been weaned off of the insulin after a few years and am just taking medication and monitoring my diet & nutrition. I do have to check my blood sugars (or am supposed to) three times a day, and I can usually make any necessary changes in my meals as needed.<br />
<br />
Diabetes leads to many other medical issues, and this I also know personally.<br />
<br />
Here's some startling but interesting facts about Diabetes:<br />
<br />
With nearly 26 million children and adults in American living with diabetes, and another 79 million at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes, the disease is taking a devastating physical, emotional and financial toll on our country. Yet, most Americans don’t consider diabetes a serious matter. They feel it is someone else’s responsibility; someone else’s problem.<br />
<br />
Recent numbers by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention paint a desperate situation of where we are at, and where we are headed:<br />
<br />
<i>"Every 17 seconds, someone is diagnosed with diabetes.<br />
Diabetes kills more people each year than breast cancer and AIDS combined.<br />
Recent estimates project that as many as 1 in 3 American adults will have diabetes in 2050 unless we take steps to Stop Diabetes.<br />
Now is the time to act." </i><br />

<div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">It's National Blog Posting Month!! Although <a href="http://www.blogher.com/blogher-topics/blogging-social-media/nablopomo">NaBloPoMo</a> is now a monthly occurrence, it officially kicked off back then just for the month of November. However, more and more bloggers wanted to continue the Monthly Blogging on a daily basis so....National Blog Posting Month is pretty much every.single.month.</div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;"><i>"It's that time again; time to commit to posting every day for a full month by joining in with NaBloPoMo. The point? Well, beyond the endurance factor -- of becoming a writing athlete -- there's the benefit from daily writing. I use it as a way to warm up before getting into book writing. And then there's the community aspect: joining NaBloPoMo is like joining a gym. You're writing in a group and feeding off that for motivation rather than writing alone."</i></div><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">For those who have difficulty trying to figure out what to write about, NaBloPoMo offers bloggers a daily 'prompt' to give you a jump start. Even if you only write a simple paragraph regarding their prompt, it usually leads to blogging about other things in general. So, if you want to jump on the bandwagon and join other Bloggers, NaBloPoMo is the perfect place to get direction!! :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">This is today's Prompt:</div><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq3TZ-2NpUteLPilm5Erbx3Vr4i39ab-RkrGpp4eIumq0G8xDBaGrDpgOnZm8OpYg2e3JXtnZeaE0JTID59aqAWt2rxFP3kTSO89rJlt9N3SSK8vdXRux9dtVcYj8TtYtvkDPNmB2s2-Mq/s1600/November_1.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="247" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjq3TZ-2NpUteLPilm5Erbx3Vr4i39ab-RkrGpp4eIumq0G8xDBaGrDpgOnZm8OpYg2e3JXtnZeaE0JTID59aqAWt2rxFP3kTSO89rJlt9N3SSK8vdXRux9dtVcYj8TtYtvkDPNmB2s2-Mq/s400/November_1.png" width="400" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">For me, my favorite part about writing is the fact that I can journal my daily, weekly or monthly highlights of my life and have somewhere to go to reflect back on those memories. When I started this blog, I was in a new relationship...and it pretty much documents my life from that point on. This blog ended up focusing on the planning of our Destination Wedding...and I'm glad I shared every little detail with my readers. I've had tons of people ask me for direction on re-creating some of the crafty things I did. Quite honestly, the majority of my ideas came from a very amazing group of ladies who were a part of a Destination Wedding forum I was (and still am) a part of. It's nice to be able to pass on the ideas that were passed to me. :)</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Of course after all the hoopla was over, I neglected my blog something fierce! However, I'm going to be getting back on track, and hopefully I'll be able to post daily now that I'm committed in participating in the National Blog Posting Month this month!!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>In other news....DID YOU SEE MY CHRISTMAS COUNTDOWN at the top of my blog?!? Christmas is coming in a month and 23 days!!! Yikes!!!!</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">Welcome to Friendly Friday!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Thanks for joining the Friendly Friday celebration hosted by Xenia at Thanks, Mail Carrier, Christi at Frugal Novice and Charla at Healthy Home Blog! We invite you to join us every Friday to make more friends in blogville, get more blog followers and follow other great blogs out there.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">To join in the Friendly Friday celebration, include your family-friendly link in our list, follow the hostesses in the first 3 spots and then start blog hopping! Visit other blogs on the list and comment to give them some blog love. Then take a minute to follow them through Google Friend Connect - this is a good way to keep up with other blogs, but also lets us show support to each other! Please DO NOT list your giveaways here, links must be to either your homepage or your Friday posting with your blog title. All others will be deleted.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">When people comment on your blog and let you know they're a part of Friendly Friday, return the favor and follow them back. This way everyone gets traffic and followers out of participating, and it's a win-win situation. We would love for you to also grab our Friendly Friday button and post it on your blog and/or in a post - the more bloggers that find out about Friendly Friday and participate, the better!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">Spotlight on Friendly Friday Followers!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: center;">We love your participation and want to show it! In addition to gaining followers, each week we'll select three blogs at random and will feature links and a write-up for those blogs in the content of next week's Friendly Friday post. There are so many seriously wonderful blogs out there, and this will be a great way to highlight some of those each week. Say hello to the lucky chosen 3 for this week (and feel free to stop by and give them a little extra love):</div><br />

I'm pleased to have the opportunity to work with <a href="http://www.magicsenses.com/">Magic Senses</a>! Their products are amazing and I especially love their Body Butters!! They have a variety of glycerin soaps with amazing designs!! In this review I'll be sharing with you their Gardenia Body Butter, my favorite!!<br />
<br />
<br />
All of their Body Butters are hand whipped to perfection! They contain 20% Naturally Refined Shea Butter to moisturize and soften the skin that you love! It is light, fluffy, rich and creamy and a little bit will go a long way. It absorbs very easily preventing dryness and leaving your skin very soft and smooth. We recommend it for all types of skin. The Gardenia fragrance wasn't too intense, but did leave you smelling good for several hours!<br />
<br />
<b><u> BUY IT!</u></b><br />
<br />
Know someone who could use a little pampering, some love, or just a special gift from you? Or how 'bout getting a jump start on some Christmas Shopping? Check out all the amazing products, including some great Gift Sets that Magic Senses has to offer! Your recipient will be every so thrilled to receive some of these awesome soaps!!<br />
<br />
There are a variety of sizes, scents and designs of their amazing soaps, as well as some great flavors of Body Butter. Their prices range from $3.15 to $16.95 and as I mentioned they carry a variety of Soaps! <br />
<br />
They also carry these cute Scrubbies and Puffs for Kids!<br />
<br />
