New tools

I found this new website from the USDA that gives lots of good information about the food pyramid and proper servings for your age and activity level.

You can also use their Tracker system to get more detailed information and advice on healthy eating and exercise levels.

I haven't had a chance to look into it thoroughly, but it looks like it could be a good reference in our quest for healthier living.

By the way, I haven't been doing WW per se, but I have been trying to eat in moderation and be sensible. I gained 5 pounds back over the holidays but have since lost 2 of those. I am holding steady at an overall loss of 15 pounds. I'm going to try and fit in some yoga and strengthening exercises at home, in addition to the pilates class with Chicken. So even though I haven't been blogging about it, I'm still there with you in the health trenches!
