...that I start my "new way of eating". I refuse to call it a DIET, lol. I read up on quite a few options, and I am going to do the Weight Watchers Points system. I am alloted 20 points a day - which sounds like a lot, but this is all about healthy eating and portion control. If I make wise choices, then I will do fine. However - if I eat like I have been, I think I may only get breakfast in, haha... kind of sad really!

I am dedicated though - I am really gonna try. I have 25 stubborn pounds I want gone. I went to the store yesterday and bought healthy foods and snacks. I got a bunch of fruits and rice cakes (flavored, of course), 1% milk, fat free cheeses, low fat mayo, light margarine, etc... I am doing a complete overhaul. No more fast food. That is HUGE for me. I am a fast food junkie, because it is so convenient.

I also switched my sodas to (*gasp*) Caffeine-Free Diet Coke and Sprite Zero. You know what though - they are 0 points. This doesn't mean I am going to drink them all day every day - but it will help when I have that rare soda craving.

I guess that's all for now. Wish me luck - this is going to be really hard for me... but with support from my wonderful husband (he's doing it with me), friends/family, and help from my Lord & Savior - I know I will do fine!

'Til next time...

Jake's new trick!

FINALLY! The little boy smiles when he sees us! YAYYY! Just look at that dimple!

(Took me forever to get one on camera though!)

Guess who's two months old today...

JACOB!!! :o)

Here is a picture of him taken this morning...

Back to work...!

Yesterday marked my first day back at work since Jacob's birth eight weeks ago. It was hard to leave the house in the morning. Not because I was tired (although I was), but because he was just waking up and looked right at me - and I couldn't hold him or feed him. I had to go, so I had to wake up Hans and just walk out. It about KILLED ME!! I almost cried. But, I made it through the day. Everyone was happy to have me back, and I actually had some stuff to keep me busy, so that helped. Today Bradley & Jacob are with Grandma - I left her a page full of instructions, LOL.

Wish me luck that I will make it through the week!
