FitBloggin & SCM's!

It's FitBloggin' week!!!  I'm finally starting to get excited.  Since school started, I live week to week in terms of my schedule, and while I knew this event was coming up, it is only <i>now </i>that I am genuinely thrilled to see what this blogger conference has to offer.  It is my hope that I walk away from FitBloggin' rejuvenated in my weight loss journey so that I can continue down a path of nice and steady losses toward my goal.  I'm also looking forward to meeting/making new friends! :)<br /><br /><br />My <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/240315642310217980?size=business&media=pearl&front=business_front_vert&back=business_back_horz&mode=fill" target="_blank">blogger business cards</a> came in today from <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/" target="_blank">Zazzle</a>.  Holy crap!  They turned out so much better in person than I expected!  <i>(Please let me know if that link does/doesn't work since that is a direct link to the card.)</i>  They have a pretty pearlized finish to them with shades of purple, naturally.  Can you tell that purple is my favorite color?  Maybe not if you read TBW through a reader.  I LOVE purple!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVl02Qt0lBN7twTAznL9iN1S4fWgjqWUsXaM6zkJS4ND6cDIZs6PBJMmDucEZ5nfCVE1bEhfJf_sfLxUdGxoGxcdmsZo-G68dRX41OAuLwBAFpMHWc7X5rtKULN015K5QXy_RnUuk1viQ/s1600/blog+business+card+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgVl02Qt0lBN7twTAznL9iN1S4fWgjqWUsXaM6zkJS4ND6cDIZs6PBJMmDucEZ5nfCVE1bEhfJf_sfLxUdGxoGxcdmsZo-G68dRX41OAuLwBAFpMHWc7X5rtKULN015K5QXy_RnUuk1viQ/s320/blog+business+card+1.JPG" width="188" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_WtmwiO_Ae-hI3TTVnI35B0E9l0qsP1oc74Vj03QUhqCRcu0PL-hUMqiIp9VxwIMpRW8MM29Y0SnOzYvjFstqtfkb4cLjl5zOQWy0IvxnsWpPmoja0LvX8jZsowWtYwp3Xo1DUYvNByQ/s1600/blog+business+card+2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="186" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_WtmwiO_Ae-hI3TTVnI35B0E9l0qsP1oc74Vj03QUhqCRcu0PL-hUMqiIp9VxwIMpRW8MM29Y0SnOzYvjFstqtfkb4cLjl5zOQWy0IvxnsWpPmoja0LvX8jZsowWtYwp3Xo1DUYvNByQ/s320/blog+business+card+2.JPG" width="320" /></a></div><br /><br />And last but not least, I gave a good shot to making my own salted caramel mocha today.  <a href="http://www.52kitchenadventures.com/2011/10/12/homemade-salted-caramel-mocha/" target="_blank">This</a> was my inspiration.   I altered it a little, using 1 Tbsp of Smucker's Caramel Sauce (ice cream topping) and a packet of <a href="http://www.realhotchocolate.com/Flavors.aspx" target="_blank">Cold Stone Smooth Cravings 70 calorie hot chocolate</a>.  I didn't add whipped cream either.  My calculated version came out to 5 PointsPlus!  Uhhhh... I'll definitely take a Starbucks version over mine any day :).  Still, I'd like to perfect this drink so when Starbucks says adios to theirs, I can still enjoy mine.  I found that my version was a little too chocolatey and could have used more milk. <br /><br /> <span style="color: #674ea7;"><b>Do you have a great recipe for salted caramel mochas?  Are you attending FitBloggin?</b></span><br />
