Week 2 of this Healthy Thing

So my first week on my new healthy lifestyle plan went ok. Not great, just ok. I did really well on my eating throughout the whole week, but then on Friday, I was coerced to eat lunch at Pizza Hut with my buds Stacey & Amanda :) Then on Saturday, Brent & Carter & I went to Topeka, so we ate at Wendys..strike 2. Then after cleaning house & doing laundry all day Sunday, we really weren't in the mood to cook, so we ordered Chinese food from Jade Garden in OC (YUMMY!!!)...strike 3....and then I ate the left-overs on Sunday :( Oh, and to top it off, I only worked out that one time last week. Although, I guess all the running around, chasing after Carter that I do at home EVERYDAY could be considered a work-out! But, after all that, I still managed to loose 1 pound, so that's a bonus. I really thought I'd gain! And, another good note, after I weighed myself last week to get my "starting" weight, I realized that I've lost 5 lbs since the last time I weighed myself, which was Christmas Eve. So technically, I could make my goal to loose only 10 lbs, but I'm sticking with 15. I know I can do this, I just have to set my mind to it!!

On the Carter news front....he's doing awesome and still ornery as ever! We've been busy this week planning his 1st Birthday Party!! The guest list is so long that we had to rent a place to have the party! It would be nice to have it at home, but there's no way we can comfortably fit everyone in our house, even if we send half of them to the basement! So, we've rented the OC Senior Center out. It's a great place for events, very large, very clean, and very nice! It has a huge kitchen too, which makes clean-up easier. Mom & I went to Party America a couple nights ago and got the supplies....we're having a John Deere party! I just need to get a few more things, order the cake, and of course get the invitations out! I think I'm more excited than the birthday boy!

Well we got our computer back last week, but unfortunately it STILL has a stupid virus!!! I don't know how we're getting these viruses. We really don't do a lot of web surfing. We mainly just stick to the same ole sites. We don't even do all of those stupid applications on Facebook that are known to carry viruses. It's so frustrating!! So until it gets fixed again, I can't upload any pictures from my camera, which is double frustrating!! Luckily, my mommy was kind enough to share these photos with me that she took yesterday on "Carterday." Enjoy!
