The only highlight I have for today is that I got to go hang out and talk to my cousins girlfriend for a bit and that was really nice! OH and I also did some intervals on the treadmill and got a pretty good sweat going!

Since last April or so I have been trying to figure out WHAT THE HELL is going on with my body. Rewind to December 2009 – March 2010 and I can say that I cranked up my exercise but didn’t crank up my calories. That’s why I suffered all those symptoms. Despite exercise efforts I cannot lose weight and in fact, I’ve gained a few more pounds recently!!!!! Now I’m up a little over 30 pounds. Why? My metabolism has slowed down to a snail’s pace and my body is holding onto all that fat I have gained over the past year or so.

The only thing I can do? EAT MORE. Eat PLENTY of fresh fruits, veggies and I do anyway but now just need to make sure to get a little more and do some exercise but keep it at a certain level but It’s been harder to exercise since my energy is still really, really, really lacking. My fatigue is nowhere as bad as it used to be but I’ll be happier when it’s all gone. I need to start going to bed earlier… for months now I’ve been going to bed from anywhere from midnight – 2AM and I know my body needs plenty of rest. I still wake up and don’t feel as rested as I should.

I actually started to eat more in January or February of this year and my weight went down a little but then I cut the calories again and so I was in a mess again. I need to FUEL my body!!!! It’s not like I only eat 500 calories a day. I’ve been attempting to stick around 1600-1800 and It’s not working. I think I need to eat around my maintenance calories which is around 2100-2300 to rev my metabolism and get my body back in order.

Well, I’m off to finish dinner and play ANGRY BIRDS before bed !!!!!!!!!!!! Heh. Thankful for my life and EVERYTHING HEAVENLY FATHER HAS GIVEN ME! =)

How was your Wednesday?!

Highlights:
– Katie’s potty training is NOT going well! She screams pretty much every time we attempt to put her on the potty. It’s sooooooooo very stressful for me. I’m not sure what I’m gonna do.
– It rained a bit but isn’t too cold thankfully
– Been playing a lot of Angry Birds on my awesomesauce new phone! LOVE IT!!!
– Did a resistance rope workout + 10 minutes on the bike
– Had a DELICIOUS protein shake for lunch and also a fruit/veggie salad
– decided to get out of the house this evening so took Katie to my Moms and we went to Wal-Mart. I picked up some stress tablets to see what that does for me
– we’re gonna watch last nights Biggest Loser soon and I CAN’T WAIIIIIT!!!
– Brad called the temp agency today and they said their still workin on getting him a job lined up so prayers and positive vibes are welcomed and needed!

That was pretty much it for the day! Brad and I have been looking into doing some volunteer work as well since that will get us out the house and helping people is always such a great thing. I really want to continue to do volunteer work as often as I can. Let me just say also THAT IT IS SOOOOOOOOO NICE to just be able to let Katie spend time with my Mom while we go to the store or something. Even that bit helps SO MUCH to not have to be with her 24/7 and we need time away from her and she needs time away from us.

Alright I am off to start dinner and start watching BL! WOOT!

HEY HEY everyone! I have so much to update so I’m gonna try to put it into a shorter blog since we’re gonna eat our late dinner soon. OK so we left Monday the 14th and here’s what happened from then until now:
– brad applied for lots of jobs
– he has an “on call” little gig right now but there’s really no work right now for it but still.
– he applied for 2 job temp agencies and had an interview with one of them last wednesday!! he wants that job SO BADLY
– katie did TERRIBLE the first 2 nights sleeping in her playpen with us in moms room
– went to our new ward for church! lots more people!
– got to go with my cousins girlfriend to a running trail.. it was BEAUTIFUL. you go to the top of the mountain and can see about 30 miles out. what a view! brad came with us too and we mostly walked but I also got to run!
– we got our apartment keys last Thursday and got our moving truck the same day and headed back to AL to get our stuff
– left early afternoon and didn’t take the right exit… brad got very upset but we eventually got to AL 2 1/2 hours out of the way…
– church friends came over to help us move our stuff out of the AL house and we stayed overnight then got up early to finish the rest
– had no problem getting back to GA and 2 new church friends came to help brad unload while i started to sort things in the apartment
– EVERYTHING is set up and all we have to do is hang the rest of our pictures!!!!!
– we upgraded our cellphones for our late bday presents! we both went with the HTC Inspire and we both love them! the most high tech phone i’ve ever had, lol.

IT’S BEEN COLD here the last few days… brr! I love the new apartment. I’ll try to get pictures and possibly a video soon! I’m so excited to be living in GA again!!!!!!!!!! We are trying to potty train Katie again and so I hope she can get the hang of it soon because it is not easy that is for sure…

From Friday on I worked and worked and worked to get everything set up so I know I got plenty of exercise, haha! I haven’t been getting enough sleep though. I should of went to bed last night when I got into bed after midnight but instead I decided to play some Angry Birds on my phone! Brad and I did a P90x workout together yesterday and today I did a Wii Active workout and I’m still sore from yesterday! I weighed myself recently and I’m actually up a few pounds. Sigh… I’m gonna keep trying to get everything balanced because I am determined to lose this weight. It’s not like I just sit and stuff my face! I eat healthy, I exercise but SOMETHING isn’t working.

Love our new apartment! Love our new cellphones! Love being in GA again!!! Love my life and my Heavenly Father!!!!

A new journey for us is beginning! To say that I’m excited is an UNDERSTATEMENT!!!!!!

Today was our last day at our current church here in this area. In our new city our church will be MUCH larger! I’m excited to meet new people! Church was good today and I guess I’m too excited to be sad?! I’m gonna miss everyone but GOSH I’M SO EXCITED. I’ve been waiting for this big change for a long time. It’s finally happening. IT’S FINALLY HAPPENING. We had potluck after church so we ate, hung out then our church Pres followed us home so we could give him back a few things. Brad put Katie down for a nap and then a bit later Brad’s Mom and one of his sisters came to visit us before we leave for tomorrow. It was nice hanging out with them!!! They left to go to Wal-Mart after while and came back to stay a little longer to see Katie and then they left! We loaded up to go to Wal-Mart to get a few things.

We’ve still gotta get everything ready for tomorrow morning! I’m so ready to hit the road for Georgia!!! CAN’T WAIT TO SEE MY MOM, AUNT AND COUSIN! I can’t wait to see what’s in store! We’ll be leaving as soon as we can in the morning. We won’t have Internet at my Moms unless Brad brings his laptop and tries to steal an unlocked wireless access like we’ve done before, lol. SO therefore unless that happens or I use my Cousin’s Internet then I won’t be posting for a little bit BUT I WILL BE BACK and with a zillion, million stories I’m sure! I can’t wait to share it all. I can’t wait to come back to get our stuff and move into our new apartment! I can’t wait to start this new beginning. I will have way more interesting things to blog about so look out my blog will be a lot more less boring, LOL.

I’ve changed my life so much since 2008 and now this new beginning is going to let me take this new life I’ve shaped over the last few years and PUT IT INTO FULL MOTION.

MY BIRTHDAY IS TUESDAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!! So happy early birthday to me since I probably won’t be able to post Tuesday! Thanks to all my readers! Would love to hear from you in the comments!!!!!

LET THE JOURNEY BEGIN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I pray that It all goes smoothly. This last week or so has been so great and I KNOW that there are so many more great days to come… I JUST KNOW IT! Until next time my friends – LIVE IT UP! I’m thankful for my life and everything Heavenly Father has presented to me in this life! =) Wishing you a great rest of March! See you when I see you!

Oooooh wow! Woke up to sunshine and the start of a BEAUTIFUL day!!!! I set Katie up in her highchair to watch Planet 51 while I cleaned house. My last routine Saturday to clean the house… the next time we clean it will be one last clean after we get our stuff out. It was actually a very busy day but I am so thrilled about everything happening and ABOUT to happen! I cleaned house, started to pack a few things for Monday then fed Katie lunch plus ate a snack. I was NOT going to miss out on a glorious day like today so I put on Katie’s shoes and strapped her into the new jogging stroller (while she loudly protested!) and then we were off! My last stroll in this area and It was a nice sight to see. The grass is really turning green, flowers are popping up everywhere and everything is coming back to life in the wake of SPRING! Speaking of… don’t forget to SPRING FORWARD with the time TONIGHT! YESSSSSSSSSSSS! I even ran a few sprints while pushing the stroller! We ran into 2 different groups of doggies who got as close as they could and were barking very loudly. Annoying!!! Our wonderful stroll lasted almost an hour then I came inside real quick to fix some oats since I NEEDED FUEL! I let Katie roam outside for about 20 minutes before bringing her in for snack + nap.

I hopped online for a bit and time flew by and 30 minutes had already went by and I had meant to already be in the shower by then so I got refreshed, fixed my salad + fruit while I prepared my church lesson for the kiddies for MY LAST DAY @ our church tomorrow. I posted on my livejournal then got ready for the usual evening routine. I packed some of our dishes, fixed Katie’s dinner, started our dinner, fed her and she’s been playing ever since. One of the sisters from church called and left me a voicemail saying she was sick and wouldn’t make it tomorrow so I called her back to check on her. I’m gonna miss her and all our other church friends so much! I imagine our last church day will include some emotional times. Brad’s Mom and sisters are gonna come visit us tomorrow afternoon and I imagine that won’t be easy for them either.

I’m gonna miss everyone here but at the same time I can’t help but feel so excited and happy about these changes. There is so much that is gonna be opening up to us!!! Today is Brad’s last day at his job that he’s been at for the last almost 2 1/2 years!

Brad went to Wal-Mart last night but his cellphone was dead so he couldn’t call me to ask me about buying things and he couldn’t find ANY electrolyte mixes like I had asked about so he came home with caffine pills since I told him I needed something with caffine in it. Then I realized that my emergen-c packets have all that I need in there and I’ve been drinking the immune defense packets but I’m switching back to the super orange vitamin-c packets I was taking before since they have a much better taste and 2 packets a day would equal all the electrolyte minerals I need. I figure I will mainly sip on those all day to try to build up those electrolytes. I felt good this morning since I drank some of the immune defense and sipped on that ALL morning but It seems like after I’m done with any kind of exercise after a certain time frame the fatigue steps in and that’s what happened today so when I started to feel it a little I took a caffine pill and that seemed to help! I haven’t felt fatigue the rest of today! I think I need some sort of sugar either before, during or after to keep me going since I have very, very little sugar or caffine in my diet at all. THE BEST OF ALL is that since I’ve slacked on the water I’m NOT COLD ANYMORE, WHEEEEEEEEE. The heart palpatations are gone I think? Those really, really, really, really suck. I’m gonna bring my body back to full ENERGY and full speed to where I was ON FIRE like I was last January and February!

CAN I JUST SAY I’M EXCITED AGAIN?!!!!!!! Heh. Counting my blessings one by one!! Sooooooooo very thankful!!!!

FIRST OFF………….HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO MY HANDSOME HUSBAND! While laying in bed last night before going to sleep I wished him a happy birthday since It was a few minutes past midnight and then he asked me how old he was, lol. We’re the same age until the 15th which is when I’ll turn…. GULP…. 25!!!!!!!! Holy smokes. I seriously feel like I should still be 18! Oh well, I’ve learned so much the last few years and am on my way to leading a healthy rest of my life! I don’t really want to go back to 18 because I was overweight and very unhealthy!

Today hasn’t been too eventful! I did a little fun workout on the Wii Active then got a nice bath just to relax. I put on some laundry and was battling some serious fatigue earlier today but I took some excedrin and that has really helped me. I’m really sure that my electrolytes in my body are WHACKED. Brad is going after work to see If he can find some electrolyte mixes to put into water and instead of drinking plain water I’ll just drink the electrolyte mix throughout the day. The kind that I’d like to get is the Zym Berry dissolvable tablets that also has some natural caffine in it so that would give me some pep throughout the day too. I was trying to figure out what else to pack today but haven’t settled on what yet, lol. I packed some of our lighter kitchen containers and some pans into a huge trash bag last night. I guess we better start packing for Georgia tonight or atleast tomorrow since we’re looking to leave to go stay with my Mom Monday!!!!!!!!! SO EXCITED.

FOR THE LORD HAS SAID- “FEAR NOT FOR I AM WITH THEE”
With all the recent happenings in the world such as all the mysterious massive animal deaths with the fish, birds, earthquakes, etc.. quite a few Christian people have been questioning… is this it? We don’t have an exact date but If you believe in God and have read The Bible the things we’ve been going through are signs they talk about in The Bible. I have also been questioning this myself. Years ago I was SO AFRAID OF DEATH and of “the end of the world” but now I am exactly the opposite. I’m at peace with life because I believe in Heavenly Father and KNOW that as long as I am baptized (which happened in 2008), repent of my sins and strive to live a good life then I have nothing to fear. A lot of people fear that they won’t see their family members again but I know that families are forever. Does that mean that so-and-so won’t get a chance cause they weren’t baptized? I believe that EVERYONE gets a chance to accept The Gospel.. even If they don’t accept The Gospel as mortals then they will have a chance in the afterlife. Think of the people who have never heard of Jesus/God – do they not get a chance? Heavenly Father loves us all and as long as we don’t outright reject his teachings and Him then we will have a place in his kingdom.

I will hold steadfast to my faith no matter what is happening around me. In fact, with all these natural disasters.. It only helps me hold that much tighter to my beliefs and my hope and faith. I love talking about The Gospel SO MUCH. My religion has opened so many doors for me on my understanding of my life and purpose as a human being. So thankful to have gained the knowledge I have!

Feeling very peaceful tonight. Katie has also been SO GOOD since she got up from her nap… just playing and babbling. Life is amazing. I can’t wait to see what Heavenly Father has planned for us as a family. Know that God loves you and will not forsake you as long as you believe, repent and strive to live a good life!!!

BRRRRRR. It’s been cold and windy today! This mornings workout consisted of a full body workout with the Wii Active [More Workouts] and that helped me work up a sweat! I wanted to finish off with a walking and jogging intervals on the treadmill SO I DID! The top of my shirt was wet and my back was soaked… woots! I sipped some water and took my immune defense packet mixed with water and fiddled online before eating a snack then getting a very refreshing shower. I fed Katie her lunch then messed online some more then eventually fixed my lunch and after I ate a bit later I gave Katie her snack then put her down for nap! The usual… styled my hair and munched on my Zone bar! I decided to let our little turtle go free in the pond behind our house so I took him and placed him near the water’s edge, took some pics and tried to wait for him to poke his head out but he kept going back in his shell, lol so I said my goodbye! He was a good little pet! We brought him home after finding him at the pond across from Brad’s work in Spring 2009 I think It was. After I had done that I checked the mail and brought out garbage can back to the porch.

I called Mom and talked to her for about an hour!!! My Mom and Aunt are both sick right now so I hope they get better before we get there!!! That’s for sure! Brad called me on his work break then I fixed a peanut butter, sugar free maple syrup and (few) banana slices sandwich! Mmmm and I toasted the bread so It was great! I wanted to go see If our neighbor/landlords wife was home to give them some of their belongings and talk to her and when I went out the door some church friends had just pulled up with some BOXES, YAY! They left and I went to visit with our neighbor for about 30 minutes and It was great! Came back home, fed Katie dinner, started our dinner, packed some more boxes and then ate my sweet potato with the choco protein powder mix to go on top!

I CANNOT WAIT to watch BIGGEST LOSER tonight and eat our turkey burgers and veggies! I forgot to watch it last night since Brad got home about an hour later and I got busy packing BUT TONIGHT WE WILL WATCH! Heh. Wowie, my shoulders are pretty sore and so are my feet! I’ve got other parts that are sore but not as bad as my shoulders and feet but I LOVE BEING SORE because it means my work is doing something!!! It felt great to be on the treadmill today and to do 7.0mph SPRINTS… it reminded me of this time last year when I would run like that… to push myself! It’s awesome.

Guess I shall fiddle online a little more then see what else I can go through and pack! I’m thankful for my life. Blessed to have what I do have. Know that God loves you!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We can do ANYTHING we set our mind to If we will work for it! =)

March is moving right along!!!!!!!! Brad’s BIRTHDAY is FRIDAY! YIPPEEEEEEEE. I knew today was gonna be a bit busy but I was ready to push myself with exercise! After breakfast I got out my Kettlebell DVD and did 30 minutes of that while Katie watched me in her highchair. I worked up a good bit of sweat from that! Definetly a FULL body workout! I set her up with a movie then got on the exercise bike for 35 minutes and I really tried to push myself as hard as I could but I mostly went at a moderate pace since I was doing a longer stretch than just the usual 10-15 minutes. I had to take a few breaks and go sip on some ice cold water since my mouth and throat were getting dry!!! I DID IT THOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Once I was done I got online for a few while I ate a snack then got a hot shower. I fed Katie her lunch then started fixing mine so after some choppin and preparin I sat down to eaaaaaaat. This week was my last week of online work! I’ve had this little online job two different times and I might work for them again in the future maybe. I did some online work then fed Katie her snack then put her down for nap. Munched on my dark chocolate ALMOND Zone bar while I fixed my hair then back to workie!!!!!!! I had some DELICIOUS chocolate protein, pumpkin seed and peach/blueberry OATMEAL for a snack @ 5PM before I finished up my final feed for my little job!!!!!!!!! I got Katie up, fed her dinner and fixed mine and Brad’s dinner then I let her play while I started PACKING!

That’s right! I remember when we moved in. I’m really excited to be moving. We just need more boxes! I’m also going through stuff as I pack to see what I want to keep/donate/throw away and we’ve done that plenty of times in the past but it’s always good to do it again, LOL. I’m gonna pack AS MUCH as I can before we leave to go stay with my Mom so that we won’t have much to pack when we get back to come move our stuff with the moving truck.

I’ve actually felt pretty good today! Espically right now! I took some of the generic excedrin around 5:45PM to give me a little boost of caffine and I’d say it’s working!!! Packing has made me feel good. WOW. Lots going on between getting back into weight loss and the big move and I AM SO HAPPPPPPPPPPPY. Calories for today will add up to possibly ~1550 or so! YES YES YES!!!

I will forever and always be thankful, grateful and blessed for everything I have that Heavenly Father has blessed me with! The Gospel is amazing. It WILL change your life If you TRY to change your life for the better! If you don’t like how your life is going then try something different!!! Make some changes. Keep your head up and always think POSITIVE about yourself! It MATTERS A LOT!

I’m off to wait for my lovie to get home so we can hang out! SQUEEEEEEEEEEE.

Last night we did wind up watching a movie! We watched GROWN UPS! It was pretty good but I had taken some sinus meds before we started watching and towards the end I was REALLY jittery and hella sleepy so I went straight to bed afterwards. Brad… on the other hand stayed up until 4AM! Hah.

WHEEEEEEHOOOOOO. After breakfast, I did a full body Wii Active workout for 30 minutes then got on the treadmill DETERMINED to burn 500 calories. I did walking and jogging intervals and also some faster sprints in there but It’s still rough on my lungs and also I had taken some pills this morning so those give me a sick feeling in my tummy. OH speaking of pills… the generic excedrin I took this morning really seemed to help me! I got off the treadmill a handful of times to get a drink of water and to do this or that. Brad put Katie down for an early nap after she ate while I finished treadmill time. 3.2 miles took me 52 minutes! I ate a snack afterwards then got a shower and fixed my lunch!!! After fixing my hair and hanging out a little, I got Katie up, fed and we were ready to head out to go visit his Grandma! I packed Katie’s diaper bag then brought along water, Zone bar, sweet potato + my choco protein powder and peanut butter mix to eat for a later snack. It’s been rainy all day with a little thunder here and there so we had a chilly, rainy drive. When we got to her town, Brad stopped @ a grocery store to see If they had some boxes and they did so he got a handful… YAY! It was great to see his Grandma again!!!!!! We had a really great time. Just talking and Brad’s Grandma gave Brad a bunch of stuff that his Grandpa (who passed away in January) wanted him to have. Awwww. We said our goodbyes and headed towards home around 8:15PM. We got home then brought all our stuff inside and Brad put Katie straight to bed. Dinner is in the oven!

Looks like we might be going to Georgia to stay with my Mom PROBABLY MONDAAAAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If that is the case then I GET TO BE WITH MOM ON MY BIRTHDAY, YES! :]

I’ve felt really good today and my head hasn’t hurt once! Blood pressure seemed to “feel” like it managed better too. The pants I wore this evening are pretty tight so now I feel a bit bloated. Ugh. Calories for todays meals after dinner will be right around ~1500 again so I AM SUPER HAPPY WITH THAT! I’m a little eager to see what the scale will say this coming Monday. I do expect a lower number because of all the hard exercise I’m doing PLUS tracking my calories so close but we’ll see. Even If I don’t see a change I WILL KEEP GOING NO MATTER WHAT UNTIL I REACH MY GOAL OF 130 AND WILL BE AS FIT AS I WAS THIS TIME LAST YEAR BUT THIS TIME EVEN BETTER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can’t tell you how excited I am! To lose this extra weight and to MOVE and have a new beginning for us as family. SO THANKFUL, GRATEFUL AND BLESSED! Always…

I was determined to get up this morning and do some exercise for Monday since I haven’t done any intense exercise on a Monday in a loooooong while! And that’s just what I did!!! Ate breakfast then got on the treadmill and was gonna push for 3 miles atleast. I want so badly to get back to the running level I was at this time last year AND I WILL DO IT… I WILL DO IT! I wound up doing 3.1 miles and burning 500 calories! My legs didn’t hurt AT ALL but the worst part were my lungs since I’m so not used to all that yet but with time It will let up. Brad and I got a shower while Katie was in her highchair watchin Blue’s Clues. I ate a snack then we hung out until I fixed my hair then we were out the door for groceries!

Of course went straight to the blood pressure machine… ugh. It was around 95/67. I had slight head/eye pressure so yeah. I picked up some Zone Dark Chocolate Almond bars to go with my salad at lunch… OH YES! I needed some new shampoo/conditioner so I went with Dove since I used to use that and It seemed to keep my hair soft. I’ve been buying cheaper Herbal Essences that was a 2-in-1 shampoo + conditioner but It wasn’t doing much for my hair anymore. I’ve been thinking about dying my hair again since my natural color is seeping through and I’ve naturally got auburn-ish hair and I DO NOT LIKE REDS! No offense to anyone that does like them or is a redhead but I just don’t personally like it. I went searching for a hair dye color and wanted something darker… looked at all the dark brown colors and just decided to go with good ole DARK BROWN! I also went on the hunt for some new exercise shorts and found some grey COMFY medium shorts for only $7! WOOOOTS. We got our fooooooods and both got an energy drink on the way to check out.

Once we got home I had to get Katie’s snack ready because It was way past her nap time and then I had to hurry to put away groceries, chop up some fruits and veggies PLUS make any extremely late lunch for myself since I’m used to eating lunch at 1PM and it was nearly 4PM! I tried on my new exercise shorts and they fit but are a bit snug but of course that’ll get better SOON! SQUEEEEE. Brad took out the trash then put Katie down for her nap while I continued to fix and put away this and that. I finally sat down to eat my veggied and pumpkin seed salad plus a side of mixed fruit. IT WAS SO GOOD. I was STUFFED. I had planned on eating my protein bar but was so full that I decided to hold off on the bar for a bit. Brad helped me dye my hair… hehehee! Then while my dye was setting for a long while we went out on the backporch and I trimmed/clipped his hair! We came back in and then I nibbled on my chocolate protein bar and put away our chicken in the freezer for the week. I washed my hair out in the sink then washed it with shampoo and the dye conditioner then let that set for a few while I washed dishes then washed that out. By that time Katie was awake so I got her dinner ready, got her up and let her play. We all hung around then Brad decided he’d go pick up a few things we forgot at the store. My head/eye pressure was really sucky earlier so I researched low blood pressure and headache and people recommended excedrin with caffine so I put that on the list. I had also forgot cinnamon, paper towels and wanted to try out the diuretic to see if that will help with my water weight or not. He went off to get those and I fixed a sweet potato PLUS a mix of choco protein powder AND peanut butter to put on top. It was really sweet… literally! Hah. I fixed my hair and styled it (again) and It’s pretty soft!!!

Brad put Katie to bed, I started dinner and we studied our scriptures until it was ready. We just finished eating and we might watch a movie soon. Not sure which one though… It’s been a good day! My head/eye pressure has finally let up. I took some asprin earlier since I didn’t want to take the excedrin tonight since It has caffine in it and I don’t want to be up all night but I DO want the energy for in the morning with exercise and hopefully that’ll help my blood pressure too. I did great with calories today and in fact this is the least amount I’ve eaten in a long while and I feel good too! Not hungry or deprived. My total calories for today was somewhere around ~1500 or so, WOOT. Between BMR + exercise and minus my calories I’ve probably got an almost 1,000 deficit for today which is AWESOMESAUCEEEEE.

Feeling pretty good right now except I’m a bit tired and my eyes are a little heavy. Hopefully I’ll wake up feeling even better. We might be going to visit Brad’s Grandma tomorrow and we’ve gotta hunt for BOXES too! Gotta start packing up this place!!!!!!!!!!! I CAN’T WAIT TO MOVE and see what is in store for us after we move, EEEEEEE! Thankful for my life. Thankful for everything HE has given me — yes my Heavenly Father. I want everyone to know that The Gospel is our guidance in this life and we will receive great blessings If we just attempt to follow the commandments and live them day by day. We are not perfect and never will be completely perfect but we CAN FOR SURE attempt to be better people and we can always make good changes.

Stay positive!!!!!!!! Anything is possible and nothing is impossible. I truly and honestly believe that!!!
