Chicago Area Family Fun January 4 - 10

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

I can't believe it's 2010! Are your resolutions still intact? I "sort of" broke mine as I tasted (two or three times) the pudding I was making for my daughters this afternoon. It was all in the name of quality control...REALLY!!
We'll be experimenting a bit with the format and timing of our eNewsletter this year, trying to make it as useful as we can to you. We've noticed that most of you seem to be most interested in what the weekend has to offer, so we're highlighting the weekends with individual activities, and giving some more general ideas for the weekdays. Let us know if you have any comments or suggestions.


The holidays are over but the pounds are still with us. Missy Vacala of Vital Fitness Chicago is here to help with a little advice. If you have a fitness, weight loss, or health question for Missy post it on our blog.

In the meantime you can start to take the pounds off with:AmeriSciences Slim. Safely and effectively suppress appetite and increase fat metabolism, while maximizing use of available vitamins and minerals to maintain balanced nutrition. Slim offers a natural alternative to pharmaceutical-based appetite suppressants. Use code KIDWINKS and get 10% off a single order, get 20% off when you become an Easy Ship customer.

Our first blog question: Hey Missy! I want to lose 30lbs!! I've decided to cut my carb intake rather than focusing on calories...click to read Missy's answer.
