My Own Personal Biggest Looser

I need to loose weight. Like about 75 pounds. I don't know why, but I lack motivation for exercise and eating right. I am a total junk food junkie and I suppose that I'm addicted to sugar.

I've decided to start small in the hope that I can tolerate the changes.

Goal #1: Give up soda pop. This doesn't sound terribly difficult, but I'm libel to scratch out someone's eyes for a Dr Pepper in about 3 days.

My first 10 pound lost reward will be a new haircut and color.

If I can loose 40 pounds by the 4th of July, I'm going to go spend a night with a friend and go shopping for our family vacation to Florida this summer. (Yes, I know that this is a difficult goal. Isn't it supposed to be?)

I'm Back!!

I've been missing for awhile. We're suffering from too much to do and too little time.

We've been doing a little remodeling project.

Turning this:

Isn't that rose wallpaper awful??

I kid you not, when we were looking at this house our realtor told us that the bathroom had just been remodeled and it was "just georgous!!"

Someday I'll show you a picture of my living room. Lets just say that the previous owner really, REALLY liked rose wallpaper.

I do not.

Into this:

I still need to change the shower curtain.

This is not our finished bathroom. It was just made (in our opinion) liveable with new drywall, texturing and fresh paint. We also (I'm using the term we very loosly) rewired everything including a new ceiling light, bathroom fan and working electrical outlets. I can now plug my blow dryer into an outlet in my bathroom instead of the office. Aren't modern conviences amazing. We only have this one bathroom so the major renovation, complete with a new linen closet, tile shower, jacuzzi tub, new window and tile floor, will be done after we install another bathroom upstairs.

We apparently purchased the money pit.

You know what's better than marrying for money?

Marrying for home improvement skills.
