My Brave Daddy!

First off, Mute the music in the background just go to the bottom of the page and hit pause.

Well, hopefully this link works. My dad just got his new taser for work. BUT, before they could get their tasers, they all had to be tasered by it just once. My guess is so that they'll know not to use it in excessive force, cause they'll know what it feels like. They got to choose to have it for 1 second, 5 seconds or 10 seconds. I have no idea what he chose. My dad is a BIG man. For those of you who don't know. He's 6 foot 4 and atleast 210-220lbs. This is what happened to him. and, he....takes....it....like...a....man!!!

My First Progress Report Since High School

Well, I went to my first WW weigh-in meeting on Thursday, I was pretty sure I'd gained. The scale stopped and I unexpectedly yelled, HOLY CRAP!!! Really loud. I was so embarassed. My first acheivement is -4.4lbs in one week. I guess we'll see how I do this week, seeing as we've all been sick and I haven't been eating very well. This week also holds a dreaded Dr.s appt for me. I get to go in and talk to my girly dr. and see what tests they want to run on me. Then I'm sure I get to go get stabbed by a needle. *insert feeble yee-haw here*
I guess we'll see how it goes.

Uh-Oh! She decides to branch out.

Ok, people, I'm going out on a BIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGG limb here. I've decided to post some of my karaoke online. I'm frightened to let you hear it, but here you go:

Calgon Take Me Away!

Well, I now understand my mother and her affinity for using this saying frequently when I was a child. I find that watching three kids under the age of two (two of whom, are entering the terrible twos early!) is making me mad as a hatter! Well, I am just taking a sanity break, Logan has been a good boy and decided to take a nap for me today. The other kids are at home with their parents today. I think they sensed my need for only one child today.

Well, I've started doing Weight Watchers with my mother in law. I started doing it myself a couple months ago. I lost 17lbs by myself. Then I kinda hopped a little off the wagon and only gained 5 lbs back, but I'm tired of buying fat pants. So, here we go! I guess we'll be seeing how I've done this week. This is my goal right here:









I would love to get back to my graduating high school weight. I know, I know, it's a big goal, but I have faith that someday I can get back there. My reasons are that I'd like to be healthy enough to run around and play with my kids. I'd love to look hot for my husband....Meow! (Little moment here to think how that could be....hehehehehe) Anyway. I miss how pretty I used to be, I realized that I didn't think I was pretty back then, nor did I think I was skinny. But I realize now....what's that saying about hindsight?
But I realize that as I look back now, I was pretty and I was skinny. Pardon me but, DAMN this sucks! I wanna be that girl again. I guess that I could use all the support and help I can get. I know I can do this, I look at a girl in our ward, whom I am friends with. She started going to Weight Watchers, the same starting weight range that I'm in. She's lost 100.4lbs!!!! She is my inspiration. She's gone from a size 18 dress to a size 8!!!!! If she can do this...I can do this.
I can't wait to shop in the normal people stuff again!!!
