Update
So we have just been trying to get our house set up this past month. We have so much stuff to still move in from the garage but we got the most important items in the house.
In other news I have lost a total of 12.2 lbs so far on my new diet. I had a bad week about two weeks ago but I got back on track. I also got on FMLA, Family Medical Leave Act, which protects my job due to absences. My doctor requested for me to work 8 hour days instead of 10 for a month to see if it helps my pain. I started my 8-4:30pm schedule on Monday 3/22/10. I already feel better!! It is a good thing the law protects my job because I have missed alot of work due to my chronic pain over the past two years. No doubt I would have been fired if I didn't work in the County.
Me and Karson are still off on Fridays and we are taking advantage of it by getting stuff done around the house and doing errands.
Well that is all for now. Not much going on. Our friend Stephanie is getting married in May so hopefully I will have lost 20lbs by then so I can fit into some of my nicer dresses for her wedding.

Moving!!!
So our carpet is getting installed today!!! So happy!! We are moving this weekend!!! Finally back into our own house, and back on the computer!! Man I have gotten behind on Facebook and the Blog!!! I have pictures to post from Dland trip with Toby, Grase and Sofia. I have anniversary dinner pictures to post too!!! Can't wait to get settled in the new house. It is going to look great with new carpet and all the new paint!!! Hopefully everyone will come visit our new little house!!
In other news I started weight watchers again, yes again. This time I had to be serious. With all my "digestive" problems I needed some drastic change. For those who don't know I have adhesion's on my colon that they did not remove and this is causing PAIN when my food is digesting. So I cut out dairy, gluten, processed sugar, and beef. The first week was hard but soooo worth it! I lost 7.8lbs in the first week!!! I feel 80% better! I say 80% because i still have minor problems with digesting/gas and I still have the nerve damage pain. My pain has improved for the better. You can't even imagine how much pain your colon can cause you!!! I am walking a little every day and going to Physical Therapy every other week and that is helping too. I mean my sister in law Keri has lost over 50lbs doing this same diet plan. It is easy when you have someone to help guide you through what "alternatives" you can have. You may think "how can you do it without eating bread/gluten?" Well gluten is only found in white or wheat flour so I can have all the other flours like Rice flour. You would be surprised how many items you can buy that are gluten free. Me and Keri have gluten free waffles with real fruit spread for dessert almost every night. It is just sweet enough to hit the spot. We have also had gluten free pizza. How? We get gluten free pizza shells then add garlic, goat cheese (we only eat goat cheese), chicken, onions and other veggies. We even had a bbq chicken pizza with sugar free bbq sauce. It is soooo good. Better even then the old pizza i use to eat. I mean we are eating healthy and that is always going to be a challenge in this "fast food" world we live in. It takes time and effort but believe me it is worth it! Your body will thank you and everyone else will notice how good you feel and look!!!!

A Scar
"A scar is not always a flaw. Sometimes a scar may be redemption inscribed in the flesh, a memorial to something endured, to something lost." Dean Koontz "The Good Guy"

Moving...ahhh
Well it has been awhile. Why you may ask? Well we have been busy that is why!! We moved out of our house on Jan 30-31st then went on a mini vacation. Then the rest of the first week in Feb we, mostly Karson and his mom, have been finishing painting our house. Now we need to put the carpet in. When we are done with all these touch ups we can move into our new house. All our stuff is currently sitting in the garage connected to the house. We are staying with the King's until our house is ready. I have to say I am enjoying it. I don't have to cook and I am living with one of my closest friends, how can that be bad???? Well until we get into our house our computer is not in use. So most of my computer use is at work. So updating the blog and facebook has been put on the back burner. So Sofia got her pictures taken so I have some to share with everyone. She is so cute. I can't believe she is one year old already!!!!!!
