Unless I state otherwise, you can assume I received a free sample of the products that I review on this blog and, sometimes I also receive a gift certificate in exchange for writing an honest review. I've also begun writing sponsored posts here from time to time, but only for products that I personally believe in and endorse. Since I only agree to review those products I think I'll like, you'll find that most of these reviews are positive. I will, however, be honest regarding my opinions on reviews I choose to write, whether they are good or bad. Pinky swear.

I offer quite a few giveaways on this site, but if you win, your prize will be sent from the company offering it, not from my home. Consequently, I am not responsible for PR reps who mail your prize 4 months late (which happened once) or never mail it at all (which hasn't happened yet, fingers crossed).

Clever Ideas to Help You and Your Guests Stay on Your Diet


If you do a lot of grocery shopping, you can't help but see all the Weight Watchers products on the shelves. From snack cakes to cheese to frozen dinners and ice cream, Weight Watchers offers lots of different options that let you satisfy your cravings without ruining your diet. I know because I use several Weight Watchers food products on a regular basis.

Anyway, Lifestyle expert and HGTV favorite Susie Coelho recently used some of her favorite Weight Watchers foods to prepare easy, delicious dishes for entertaining. She made this video with tips on sensible food alternatives that don't derail guests' daily eating routines.

Of course, I like many of Susie's ideas for myself! One of them is to make toasted cheese pitas with Weight Watchers pita bread and Weight Watchers Pepperjack cheese. Another is to serve Weight Watchers brownies, cut up into wedges and served on a stylish tray, or serve Weight Watchers chocolates in martini glasses, along with slices of strawberries. Yum!

The Weight Watchers options are especially good if you have guests who are constantly dieting, like my parents. I never know what's going to be on their good and bad lists when they visit, so having options like Weight Watchers' Banana Nut Muffins for breakfast and Weight Watchers carrot cakes for dessert has helped a lot. It's also much easier on me, the food preparer!

Check out the video for yourself and get some great ideas for your next get together!
