My Final Thoughts & Favorite Features : Whirlpool Duet Washer & Dryer

It’s been almost four months since my Whirlpool Duet set was delivered. After the stars faded from my eyes I found myself deep into my normal laundry routine. With a family of six I do about a load of wash a day. The extra capacity of both the washer and dryer make washing these larger loads a breeze. This is my first front loading set. While waiting for them to arrive I spent a bit of time daydreaming and reading the description on the … [Read more...]

Nutrisystem Take Two… Starting Over : Tips for Surviving Thanksgiving

I’m not sure if you noticed or not, but I haven’t posted in about a month. Kaytlin and I were somewhat “on a break” from Nutrisystem. When we started our “break” we had both been on program for nearly a year and wanted to try our hand out “real life”. We did fairly well and the break was nice. Halloween week gave me quite the scare with a 3 lb gain, but magically it disappeared the next week. Both of us have yo-yo’d up and down a few pounds and … [Read more...]
