So this last week was horrible. I got some news that me being an emotial eater led me to eat.. So I wouldn't be surprised to see if all 5.6 pounds lost have been gained back. I am still going to go to my meeting tomorrow and post about my results. I am back to eating healthy starting tomorrow.
PS... Eating the bad food did NOTHING for me. Didn't make me feel better... Instead it made me feel bad.. GO figure.

Week 3 :)
I went and did my WW weigh on today and I am down another 1.6 pounds for a total of 5.6 pounds lost! Today I got my first 5 pound star! YAY YAY YAY!
The lady that weighed me in was so cute and I decided to ask her how much weight she had lost. She has lost 135 pounds! Crazy! :) It can be done :)

Week 2 Weigh in 1!
So yesterday ended my first full week on WW. I feel as though I did pretty darn good. I was able to drink all of my water and milk abd eat all of my veggies almost every day. There were a few days that I didn't do to well but you take those days as lessons. Lessons that teach you that if you do what you're supposed to do that you will only do better. I am happy to say that I lost 4 pounds this week! YAY! I look forward to next week!
Had to share my happy moment!

Kid+Camera=TONS OF PICTURES!
Makaila has been gone for a few weeks now and I don't even think that my camera has been out of my case. I didn't realize how I don't really take pictures that often. I guess that if you were to look through my pictures (and my posts) I am sure that at least 90% of my posts are either about 1-Makaila or 2-Gabe!
I promise that I will try to post more and take more pictures :) They may be of the sky or something however I am GOING to take them :)
So what has been going on in our life since Makaila left? Nothing really I guess :) Getting our house back to normal I suppose. Spending my time together and possibly being lazy. It is kind of nice to kick back and not be on the go go go all of the time. You know me.. I am always on the go. It seems as though I always have something planned. So lets see what has happened since Makaila left on the 1st... We went on a bike ride on the 13th up some rode in Orem. Before we got to our destination we drove past this fruit stand which we kept on driving past! On the way home I told Jake that I wanted to get some fruit. I was sure glad that I did. They were the best peaches I have ever ate and if Orem wasn't so far away I would go and get me some more. Plums.. Yes Plums.. They are delicious too. I had told Jake that you forget how much you like the sweet taste of fruit until you eat it! At that moment I would have rathered had a peach instead of a candy bar! Then.... I went out with my Aunt on Monday. Missed my primary meeting on Thursday (Wasn't feeling good. Came home and went to sleep until almost 9). Oh yeah! We bought a new washer and dryer. I LOVE my new washer and dryer. Our old ones were leaking. Or shall I say the washer was leaking and it wasn't swishing the clothes like I thought that it would. We had already made one repair to the washer and two to the dryer. These stupid machines were only 4 years old. So off we went to Maytag to see about fixing the machine. It was going to cost like $80.00 just to have someone LOOK at it PLUS parts and labor. I had thought that I could just deal with clothes which I am sure were ok cleaned just not as good smelling as our clothes in Cali (our clothes smelt SOO good in cali. I bet that it had to do with their detergent LOL) However I still wanted to go and look at the outlet area at RC Willey. We get there this guy trys to talk us into this Frigidaire washer and dryer. We told him that we are just looking and off we go to the scratch and dent area and guess what we found? Our washer and dryer! We got such a good deal on it! YAY! Oh yeah.. I forgot. I want to mention this.. I joined weight watchers on Friday. Yup I said it. I am fat... and need the help of weight watchers. Since Friday I have done so so.. I know that I can do better. Next week is going to be better. This week so far my achievements are... I have not had Soda since Thursday AND are you ready for this? I am drinking Milk. I hate milk. Granted I had to blend it with Fruit but I drink it :) So those are my two accomplishments! I am going to try to accomplish two things at a time with this weight loss thing. That way I don't overwhelm myself and give up. When I go to the weigh in and if I haven't lost anything I have gained two other accomplishments out of the week and will look forward to next weeks! :) SO wish me luck! I know that I need this more than ANYTHING. My heart needs it.. Most importantly JAKE needs it. I want to be here to live with him and at my weight it is not healthy. So check out my blog regularly for my weight loss posts!
Love ya guys!

Done posting about our trip for a bit!
I will post more later! I didn't realize how long it would take to post about our trip :)
Disneyland!
We went to Disneyland and stayed at Howard Johnsons. If anyone is going to Disneyland I recommend that you check out HOJO :) We paid $74.00 a night for two queen beds with a Disney view :) It was clean and nice. They have what is called the entertainment rate which isn't always available but it is available for most of the time. What you do to get the entertainment rate is purchace one of those entertainment books and bring the blue card that comes with it to HOJO :) You can check out if the rate is available by going to http://www.hojoanaheim.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=14.
We also did this thing called ridemax which is this program that you can buy and it lets you chose the rides that you want to ride that day and it makes a schedule for you to use so you have the least amount of wait time to ride a ride! The whole time that we were there the longest wait time we had was a half hour! That was for splash mountain which we rode with it not being on the list in our free time! The only downfall is that you walk and walk and walk and walk. While we were walking I starting singning that primary sing Pioneer children sang and they walked and walked and walked and walked LOL :) You can check out ridemax by going to
http://www.ridemax.com/
We had a lot of fun while in Disneyland. Makaila seemed to enjoy the thrill type rides. She said that her favorite ride was the Tower of Terror! Crazy her! I can tell you that I HATE HATE HATE I could continue typing the word hate but I will not bore you by having to read it that many times the teacups. What a waste of a ride LOL :) I got so sick of from the ride. I had a major headache and refuse to even look at the ride again!
Here are a few pictures of our Disneyland trip :)
Have you ever wished that you would have bought something and didn't? Well that is this hat! I don't know why but I wanted this hat! I didn't get it and now wished that I would have. It fit my head perfectly! I loved it! Oh well at least I have a picture to remember it by!
While we were in California I got a new addiction. Mr. Potato Head. Yup.. I LOVE Mr. Potato head and bought tons of disney parts for my Mr. Potato Head. Now I wished that I had a few more parts LOL :) I guess those will have to wait until our next trip
We got to take our picture with Mickey! Not the best picture but it will do!
I had to get those cute Mickey Ears for Makaila! Look at all of the cute pictures that I was able to get! I am SOO going to miss this little girl come Monday morning when she returns back home.
