Have you ever had a day where

You just want to go outside and scream obscenities at the top of your lungs? I'm not that type of person but today I think I could and I think I would do it loud enough that people in other towns could here me. But instead I think I will hop on my treadmill and work out the anger, that may help.

The treadmill that brings me to a whole another part of my life. I have been on this amazing weight loss/gain journey. A year and a half ago I lost 60 lbs in a few months, I will share before and after pictures once I get all of this figured out. I worked hard at it and counted my calories and I worked out 5 days a week. I was so proud of myself. Then we made the move to Emmett and I gave up. I completely gave up. I gained back a lot of the weight I lost but you really can't tell. I can still fit in the same clothes which is weird. I am back on this journey of weight loss again and have been doing well. My husband has been a rock. He has been dieting and exercising everyday with me. We have fun. We love to cook and we are enjoying trying out so many new healthy but yummy recipes. He made an amazing turkey chili for the superbowl yesterday. He told me last night I won't beable to share each and every recipe with you all but for the most part I could lol. He has hopes of one day opening our own restaurant/bakery and wants to have those "secret" recipes. Little does he know how many recipes I have already shared OOPS!! Atleast they have all been "my" recipes and not his. I couldn't share his recipes unless he wrote them all down for me. He keeps them all in his head and even when he DOES share them with people he leaves certain little things out that make it his"own".

I know that right now I am just typing for myself. No followers yet but I hope that someday I will be able to intrigue people. Make people want to come back everyday just to peek and see what I have going on that day.

Way to go Britten! I need to be better about working out & eating healthy, but I always tell myself I don't have the time-a lame excuse but I still use it!
Glad to see that you're blogging, I will deffinitley be "peeking to see what you've got going"!

I feel the same way some days. I am on the weight loss journey too. I hate the ups and downs of it. Keep it up.
