It's Diet Time...

that when I am trying on my in-laws wet suite tops and my husband comfortably fits in my mother-in-laws top and I fit in my father-in-laws, it is time for me to lose a substantial amount of weight. *sigh*

I am focusing on mostly vegetarian without carbs, while maintaining my restricted sugar/eggs diet that I've been doing for the past year or so. 

1 week in? Gained a pound. 

(I say this after having gone to a grad party and ate a piece of cake, had some ice-cream, and a pop. I think is classifies today as a "loss")

Current weight: 159.6 lbs

Goal: 140 lbs

I'll be following the flat belly diet plan with some modifications. I will be exercising (rock climbing) so I don't plan on doing this with diet alone. 

I'm posting so I make myself have accountability. It's discouraging being the largest one by a substantial amount of weight (I just don't have the killer fast metabolism, ridiculous amounts of self-control, and the vanity of needing to be thin).

Healthy and curvy? Yes. Love it. What I don't love is having most of my pants so tight it hurts the fat around my stomach before 9:15 am hits. 

I Heart Faces Challenge: Desserts

Why yes, I do heart desserts... This was one of the more delicious things I have had recently: Banana Pudding Cake. Yum. Double Yum. Made for my dad and husband's birthdays, we all enjoyed it immensely.

Dagny... it's spring.

Why I Love Craigslist...

I have this thing with Craigslist. I really love trolling the random things that people are selling... generally my favorite category to browse is the "Free" section. This little gem, however, was found in the "Antique" section.
Please note the title: My hubs missed what was so funny.

Hope you got a laugh!

I Heart Faces Challenge: Jump for Joy

This is part of a weekly photo challenge hosted by I Heart Faces.

This is one of my favorite jumping pictures because Mackenzie looks like a super hero and the dog (that little black thing under her) is totally oblivious to what is going on. Not to mention this is on the beautiful island of Kauai...
