6 Years

Today my wonderful hubby and I have been married for 6 years. I still cant really believe it. It seems like yesterday I could fit into my pink and white dress. I have had a great six years. He has made me laugh, even when Im mad. I love it that he can make me laugh so easily. He is so loving and warm hearted. I can still remember the day that he proposed. He was so nervous, his voice was so shaky I could hardly understand what he was saying. I absolutely adore my husband!! He is a wonderful father. Allison adores him too. She loves to play hide-n-seek with him. I couldn't have married a better match for me. God definately knew what he was doing. I love you honey and am so excited to spend many, many more years with you.

I tried to put up a picture and realized that Darren and I never get our pictures taken together. I will have to change that.

Ten pounds lighter

I think you can all guess what that means. I have lost at least 10 lbs. I am so excited. I have been doing the South Beach Diet and exercising. I owe most of it to Jessica Cagle. She has inspired me so much. She let me ask all kinds of questions and didn't seem annoyed. We have been working out together alot. It is so much easier to have a workout buddy. I finished the first two weeks of the diet. Yesterday was the first day of phase 2. Phase 1 was difficult, but I know it had alot to do with the weight loss. I feel really good and cleaned out. I dont really crave sugar, i do carbs a little bit but not bad. I fight the temptation to eat a big plate of pasta for lunch like I used to do, I know I will have to do a ton of cardio if I do eat it so that is my motivation. The food on this diet is really great. I can pretty much have anything but differently than I used to. I used to never buy whole wheat pasta. I would buy whole wheat bread. But I would always eat all the bad stuff whenever I wanted. Now I can have a treat and not feel guilty. I like knowing that I am eating good. One thing I dont like is that they want you to eat artificial sweeteners. Im not too big on that. I tried a sugar free pudding last night and even gave it to Darren. It has a wierd after taste. So I think if I want a treat I will have the real thing, just not go over board and only have it once in a while. I wish they made a brown potato like brown rice. That will be hard for me. And they say to stay away from corn. But if I want some corn on the cob this summer, Im having some.
So thank you Jessica for putting up with my questions and wierd phone call when I was having a bad day. I am really glad that we are getting to know each other. It has been alot of fun.
