Hi everybody.  I was talking with my family on Sunday and my older brother mentioned that he is sad that I am not longer gung ho about the whole weight loss thing.  He was proud of me when I was tracking my food and such.  I have decided to do this again.  I am actually sort of following a new eating plan.  Well, not really, but I want to do better at following the Eat and Be Lean program.  So I am tracking the things that I eat.  I will start with yesterday and also add today.

Breakfast- 2 slices pumpkin bread, 1 small apple.  16 oz water.

Lunch- 1/2 turkey sandwich on whole wheat bread.  Bowl of oatmeal w/ brown sugar and milk.  2 pc. toast.  milk

Snack- two strawberry laffy taffies.

Dinner- Spaghetti on whole wheat noodles.  Steamed broccoli. Pineapple.  Milk. 2 pc. whole wheat toast w/ butter.

I ate pretty good today.  I was craving fast food like crazy after work, and I even went to the store so I was out and about and it would have been easy to stop for something, but we are trying to be careful with our budget, and fast food is bad for you.  So I didn’t stop for anything and I went home and made dinner!

Thursday, Oct. 1. Welcome October! October 1, 2009

 

I can’t believe it’s October already!  Wow, where has the year gone?  It really has flown by.  I wanted to post some of the highlight of this year so far.

My first Anniversary with my wonderful husband in Logan.

Jacob passing his classes Spring semester!

New apartment.  It’s beautiful and we love it!

New/really old junkie car for me to drive to work.  It works!  That’s all that matters.

Being called as Nursery workers together.  (It didn’t last long, but for the time we had together it was awesome.)

Annie Get Your Gun.  Totally awesome experience.

Dinner group established with some of our bestest friends in the whole world.

 A whole lot of game nights in Salt Lake.  I bet that none of you can beat Jacob at Puerto Rico.  Yes, that is a challenge.

Enrolling in Independent Study.

Many darling nieces and nephews getting bigger and older, but their cuteness just grows with them.

A new couch! By new, I mean used and we just bought it.  Kind of like the car. 

Not changing jobs for 15 months and counting.  (Knock on wood.)

Just knowing that the Lord blesses me so much more than I can know, and having a testimony of the truthfulness of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. 

The year is not over and I am looking forward to many more wonderful experiences.
