Christmas Eve Traditions

Every Christmas Eve Steve has gotten the kids and myself an ornament for the tree. This year Jaden got an Airplane, Regan got a dog that looked like Diesel that we had for about a week two christmas' ago (thats another story) She loved that dog and still talks about him. And Bryson got a cool car. I did not get a pic of me with my ornament but Steve got me a soccer one since I was Jadens Soccer coach this year.

the diet to end all diets.....hopefully

DAYS 5,6& 7
My first week is done and was good...
My first weekend...BOO
I weighed in on Sat and lost nothing (yuck) then was so ticked off I did good on Sat but then Sunday I said forget it and just had whatever I wanted... weighed in this morning Down 2lbs. (Can you believe it??) What a crazy thing. But today I am back at it and will kick it out.
(thanks Mike for the shake tip I will pick some up today and give them a try)

DAY 3&4 (Feb 11 2011)
Day 3 I decided to wake up and do my workout before the kids woke up. So I got up about 6...I did get my workout in but I was a wast of a person for the rest of the day. I could hardly function I was so tired.
That lead into Day 4 where I was still wasted, and I had so much to do that day with the kids and school that even though I was in my workout clothes all day I never did get a chance to get it in.
The food part of this is having its challenges. But, I will figure it out. I just love food too much. And these protein shakes I have are not so delish, that makes it hard to choke them down

Day 2 (Feb 8 2011)
workout sucked. It was this crazy thing called pylometrics (whatever) The only thing I kept telling myself is that "I know that when I can actually do this like the people on the video do it I will have ARRIVED"
Lena woke up from her nap after only 45 min so I only got through 3/4 of the workout. Then Steve twisted my arm to go to lunch and I had fish and chips (ouch) i don't know i told myself that is my only meal for the day. hahaha
Since my lunch was "not on the diet" I went to the gym tonight and ran and road the bike for an hour.
