Laney

Laney says the funniest things. The other day she woke up and her voice was all scratchy and hoarse and I asked her what was wrong and she told me she swallowed some ladybugs and ate a movie. She must of had a weird dream. And today she came up to me and told me I was the best mom. She is so cute and sweet!!

Biggest Loser: Week 3

1 pound officially is what I lost according to Courtney's scale but according to my scale I have lost 3 pounds. So officially I have lost 6 pounds and unofficially I have lost 8 pounds. It's surprising that I lost anything this past week. I didn't exercise once, I ate a cheeseburger and fries and went to Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory and got some candy. Its hard to motivate to work out when you are sick too. Hopefully this week I will start feeling better and can get back to working out.

Avi Lost Another Tooth

Poor Avi. She is almost 8 years old and has only lost 3 teeth. She is going to be like me. I had to have almost all my teeth pulled.

Biggest Loser: Week 2

5 Pounds. Well actually I lost 4 pounds. I lost 5 pounds on my scale and according to Courtney's scale it was 4 pounds. I am still going to claim 5 pounds when people ask. This past week I upped my work outs to 3 times and ate out less. I want to try to lose 36 pounds by the end of the March. I want to be able to wear cute shorts in the summer that aren't made out of sweats material. That is my goal. I wanna be one of the hot chicks this summer!!

The Biggest Loser: Week One

1 pound. That's what I lost. Pretty sad. I started the week out really good. I worked out on Monday ate better and smaller portions. By Thursday morning I was down 5 Pounds. But then it all went downhill. Wednesday I ate lunch at Zupa's. Thursday I ate lunch at Lorena's, Friday I ate lunch at The Olive Garden and dinner at MacCool's, Saturday I ate lunch at Zupa's (again) and then dinner at Benihana. Uh no wonder I only lost 1 pound. I am surprised I didn't gain 5 pounds after looking at this list. This week I am only eating out twice since I already have plans with some friends. But I am going to order salad and water and I am going to work out more. I need to move up on the Loser board. So far I am tied for 5th. Ryan did great. He lost 6 pounds. Hopefully next week I will have a better weight to report.

New Years Resolution

This year my New Year's Resolution is to lose weight. Does that sound familiar?? Of course it does because I have said this for the past 4 years. But this year I am really going to do it. We are doing a Biggest Loser Competition with some of Ryan's family. We each put in 25.00 and there are 11 of us doing the competition. So the winner will get 70% and the second runner up will get 30% of that money. We weigh in every Sunday and its going to last 12 weeks. Its definitely a motivator for me. I am very competitive. I have a brand new treadmill in my basement that has been sitting here for 2 years never used. I walk right past it everyday to sit down to get on the Internet. So today I forced myself on it and worked out and then I did some crunches and it isn't as hard as I have told myself it would be. I am trying to do it everyday. I would post some before shots but I don't want to scare people out of reading my blog.
