It is time for change!

Okay so I am sick of gaining weight and being fat. I figured out the other day that I have gained 42 pounds since Justin and I got married and for those of you who have seen me recently I'm sure you noticed!! Its just disgusting. So what am I going to do about it? I'm going to join the Valley's Biggest Loser Competition. For those other Biggest Loser fans like me you know that the contestants compete every week to see who has the greatest percentage of weight loss. Well this program is the same. I starts Jan. 30 and is 15 weeks long. Twice a week you meet with everybody to have training sessions and once a week you meet with a nutrition coach. Of course I'll be hitting the gym more too!! Then every Saturday morning you have weigh in. Now if you lose the weeks weigh in you are placed in the consolation challenge but you can still participate in all training. The grand prize is 5,000 dollars and the consolation prize is 1,000 dollars. Needless to say it would be great to win but I just want to lose weight!!! To help me on the way I purchased this wonderful little thing with my Christmas money...

This is the Body Bugg and it is featured on the Biggest Loser. You wear it on your arm throughout the whole day minus the shower of course and it calculates the calories you burn as well as acts as a pedometer. At the end of the day you plug it into your computer, it uploads the information, and you enter in what you ate for the day thus showing you either a calorie surplus or deficit. Voila! Justin got one too and we are so excited!!! This will show me just why I've gained so much weight and the Valley's Biggest Loser will hold me accountable when i'm trying to lose weight! My goal is 60 pounds so we shall see how it goes. I can't wait for Jan. 30!

Where did my voice go?

Well its not quiet all the way gone but its definitely on its way out. This is the first time in my life this has every happened and for those of you who know me know that I like to talk. This stinks! I'm straining myself trying to communicate so that people can hear me. Justin just laughs at me. O well. Hopefully it won't be gone too long!!

Red Shirt and Khaki Pants...

Yup people that's right I got a job at Target!!!!!!! Yay!!!! I am so excited!! I have been looking for work for forever!!! I went in to interview this morning and I interviewed with one lady and she told me to go back and sit down and that she would get me a 2nd interview. So I had another interview. After that he told me that they would like to hire me!!!! I will be working in the women's clothing department which is fine by me because I have experience in that! I just went to take my drug test (fingers crossed haha) and as soon as my background check comes back then I'll be starting orientation! Wish me luck!

I hate being sick...


I started to feel sick on monday night...tuesday morning I woke up with horrendous ear pain so I thought I might have an ear infection so I went to the doctor. I didn't. Just the typical fluid behind the ear drums due to drainage. So needless to say I was just achey all over, my throat was sore, my ears hurt BAD, and I had a bad headache. After two days of rest I am feeling much, much better...this could be however from the fact that I am all drugged up. I was bummed too because I was suppoed to go to Disneyland today. O well. I'm just glad that I was sick before Christmas instead of on Christmas this year!!! Anyways enough of my complaining. Since I was feeling better tonight I went to our Relief Society Whoville Wholiday Whobilation tonight which was way fun. It was nice to meet some more people. Its hard when your the new one but there are about 5 other brand new families so it helps a little bit. We had dinner and a little "grinch" skit and just visited. Our ward seems great and I can't wait to get more involved in it.

O how i love apartment living...

Justin and I got home tonight from our ward Christmas party only to find our upstairs neighbors having a party. Mind you the apartment is the same as ours and they have about 20-30 people in there all smoking and drinking and it sounds like they just keep jumping up and down. Justin went upstairs to ask them to quiet down being that its midnight and it just got worse...so what did we do? we called the police. they came and left and so far its been much quieter. we'll see. we have no problem calling again...
