Be Healty Journey {Week 6}

Week 6

Weight Loss Amount

10.7 lbs

Yea!!! I think that I can maybe stick with this. I have noticed a lot of changes with my body. For instance, I am not obsessed with carbs anymore. I no longer indulge on carbs (sweets or bread) and then a while later need something else. There is something really true about veggies giving your body what it needs and carbs working against you.

This week I started Jillian Michael's ripped in 30. I have done this once before but only made it two weeks. I am determined to at least finish this time. She suggests working out 5-6 x's a week so of coarse I am going to do 5 :). I worked out Monday morning and Wednesday morning. Tuesday morning both of our kids were up from 430 til almost 6 so I didn't get my workout in that day.

Wish me luck everyone!!! I am committed to finishing this time around but I am going to need some help! So let's hear it ladies, how are you doing? Are you struggling? What do you need from me to get to motivated? Hope to hear from you!

Thanks for checking in!

Fall Pics

Sunday I took some pics of the kids playing outside in the leaves. Some of them turned out pretty good. I can never seem to get them to both look at the camera at the same time! I do my edit in Picasa thru Google. I really like it. Here are a few of my shots.

Happy birthday sweet boys! I am so glad that you are in our lives and I look forward to watching you grow up with your cousins. P.S. Jagger thinks your pretty cool!!!

How did you spend your weekend?

Be Healthy Journey {Week 5}

Week 5

Weight Loss Amount

8 lbs

Yea!!! I really feel good about my weight loss this week. I feel like you can really begin to notice which is great motivation to keep going. I can tell that my body is changing and I am not craving sweets and carbs like I used to. I am snacking much less between meals and don't think about food as much. Does that make sense?

I have been reading this book and I really like it. It is so interesting. It is all about lots of veggies and fruit and how that actually can prevent heart attack and cancer. I'm not saying that I am following this book right now but I am expanding knowledge and getting to know my body better.

How are you doing girls? I need to hear from you!!! Am I in this alone or is anyone out there still with me????

1st Movie!

Last weekend I took Jagger and his cousin Will to Jag's first movie. I figured he will be 3 next month so he is probably ready. We went to see Nemo in 3D.


Here we are on our way....so excited!

These two boys are so silly together, I am so glad that they are close.

I may have had chicken nugget happy meals in my purse....can you see the escaped french fry in the bottom right corner!

Best buds

3D glasses are so attractive...don't you agree :)

Before the movie started. Will didn't even get past the previews and Jag watched about 30 minutes of the movie and was fast asleep. They both slept through the whole thing!!! $29 nap pretty much. Oh well...they had fun and I got to relax.

Had to stop by the games on the way out...after I woke them both up of coarse. Very intense driving!

I remember my first movie was Bambi and I went with my mom and my cousin and aunt. I hope that Jag will remember this for a long time. Do you remember your first movie?

Weekend Love

Here are some things that we enjoyed this weekend...

A little DIY! Finally a new floor in my dining room!!!  I removed the carpet, pad and tack strip and painted the floor and then added a stencil around the edges.

What do you think?

Flowers at work from my sweet husband. Love you babe.

The scariest spider EVER outside in the driveway!!!

My sister and her fiance are expecting in December and I am working on a sweet baby shower for them. Here's one of the pics for the invite.

How was your weekend?
