Sorry I've been gone...

Omg! I've had such a problem making posts and even just getting to the page to do anything. This new set up Blogger has going on is really not agreeing with me or my computer. As much as I'd like to stay here on blogger I'm currently working on switching everything to a new blog site. I just can't do this new blogger stuff. I can't even see the entire page as I'm typing this. I will be switching over to wordpress and I hope you all will come over and continue to follow us. I'll be transferring all of my posts from this blog over to that one. Here is the link to our new page. This will be my last post on this blog. Thank you all for being loyal readers!

Let's try this again

Okay so last week didn't exactly go as planned. The diet pretty much went down the drain. This week however I refuse to let that happen again. I didn't do any measurements today because of how well last week went. I doubt much has changed except for maybe gaining a pound or two lol. I will say that I think I'm starting the day out pretty good though. I've only had 1/2 cup of coffee before I started breakfast compared to my usual 2 cups. And I really think I made a good choice for breakfast! Instead of typing out everything I eat, I'm going to document with photos. Anyone can say whatever they want but you can't fake photos... well you can but I'm clueless when it comes to photoshop! So here we go again!

Weight Lost Week 1

As I mentioned in my last post I will be starting my weight loss Lifestyle Change today. I'll be starting off each week with a weigh-in so to speak. Not just a weight check but measurements as well. I'm going to try to keep this as organized as possible (may prove to be more difficult than anticipated as I'm not an organized person). I will be posting daily with what I've eaten and drank for the day as well as "journal" entries as well to hopefully keep myself motivated! Post will be edited daily as well in order to keep everything accurate. If I were to post at the end of the day I'd more than likely forget something. So let's get this show on the road!

NOTES:


Tuesday I basically lost track of everything. Not a good thing I know but it's all a working progress. I don't expect to see any results in the first week as I need to get the hang of things. However, I will be doing the green cleanse diet as soon as I can make it to the store and pick up ingredients so that should help some. I haven't fit in any exercise either as I've been trying to get an order done and taking care of Brooklyn. I feel like I'm just making excuses instead of getting myself on track but that's not what I'm trying to do. I promise. Anyway, today is a new day! You can do it!

Weight Loss

Time to play some catch up!

Bare with me for a moment while I go see what my last post was!... Okay now that I'm on track mentally I can continue with filling you in with the past month!











Brooklyn's first Christmas went just as planned! Which is actually saying a lot if you knew all of us. On Christmas Eve the kids opened their present from Jay and I which of course in our effort to start our own family traditions, was only pajamas. Still, Matt and Bri loved theirs, Brooklyn loved the wrapping paper. She has yet to wear her pajamas. In Florida the temp gets cold but I think we got her pajamas that are just too warm, and Brooklyn HATES being warm/hot.      Her pajamas will forever hang in my closet. That's okay though cause they are just so stinking cute! Christmas Eve night while Jay prepped the turkey and 
made his mom's homemade stuffing I laid out the milk and cookies and put all the gifts under the tree. I totally got busted too! I honestly thought Bri was sleep walking again at first, turns out she was fully awake and complaining about being hot. Only in Florida can you complain about being hot on Christmas! Finally got her back to bed, with her window cracked open, all the presents placed, and stockings stuffed. Briahnna woke up the next morning talking about what she had seen the night before. I had to pull her aside and basically tell her to shut up lol. The kids were not very happy that I made them wait until my mom and sister got here though. We did things a little different this year since there are now three kids. Before we would let Matt open one then Bri then Matt then Bri and so on and so on. This year Matt opened all of his then Bri then Brooklyn last. I wanted to make sure I was able to get plenty of photos of the kids. Of course Matt and Bri open theirs so fast that I wasn't able to get many of them. Make a long story short, Matt was the happiest about his MP3 player and  Paper Jamz. Bri was the happiest about her MP3 player, boots, jewelry, and make-up. Brooklyn was the most excited about... yep, you guessed it... THE PAPER! Her Grandma from New York got her the cutest little Christmas dress. Unfortunately she didn't get to wear it on Christmas though because she was cranky. She gets cranky after noon. Overall, I'd say we all had a pretty good Christmas. 
Brooklyn had her 6 month check up a little late because of the Mondays the office wasn't open due to holidays. Christine (the Dr. we see most of the time) said she is developing skills perfectly and very healthy! ...








Feb. 27th, 2012...
   Okay so I started this post on Jan. 16th. I got a little side tracked and never got around to finishing what I was writing. I also didn't bother going and re-reading what had so I'm obviously not going to finish that. Sorry! I admit, I SUCK at Blogging! So let's cut to the chase and make a long story short. Over the last 2 months, Brooklyn has learned to crawl, pull herself up, and successfully learned to get into everything she's not supposed to! Don't worry, I have pics... what am I saying, you know I have pics, I ALWAYS have pics! Jay took Bri to a Father/Daughter dance this past Saturday. Bri had a blast, I fixed her hair and make up and just really enjoyed herself hanging out with Jay for a couple of hours. Jay's vacation last week wasn't that bad. It didn't go as planned because his mom decided not to come down just yet, she wants to come down for Brooklyn's 1st birthday so we didn't really do anything "special". We did however go to the Waldo Flea and Farmer's market. Bri didn't go with us though cause she was at a friend's house. The rest of us had fun and we picked up lots of fresh veggies and strawberries. I really think Brooklyn even had fun, she was so good and really liked the bunnies and other animals we seen there. I finally got Krys' Kwilts up and running! I've been working on my first quilt order for a High School friend's daughter. Also been doing tutus, bows, and working on cloth diapers in between working on the quilt. I'd say the quilt is turning out very nicely (pics of it will be coming as well).
     Brooklyn stopped breastfeeding last month. I had to start giving her formula at bed time after nursing because we realized she wasn't sleeping because she just wasn't getting enough to eat. After about a week she pretty just stopped nursing all together. It was sad for me but she was happier so I was happy for her. I've gained like 10lbs back since she stopped nursing though, which I'm obviously not happy about. All morning I've been on Pinterest looking up weight loss tips. Since today is Monday, what better time to start! I know if I say I'm going to start on such and such date then I'll just keep putting it off. So today HAS to be the day. No more procrastinating. I must loose this weight, I'd really like to feel good about myself again like I did two month ago. I was so proud of myself for all the weight I lost, now I'm starting to become disgusted with myself again. After doing some research on pinterest I'm pretty confident that I can do it. I have to have the will power though and that's definitely a skill I lack. My next post however will be the start of my weight loss... Look for it! And I look forward to hearing any tips/tricks from my readers as well! ....
Now with out further distraction... here's some photos for your enjoyment!
