Wedding Shadows...

I am a pack-rat.

I cherish mementos.

{I started with this shadow box I got at Michaels... I paid $8ish for it. Always use coupons. Always.}

{…so far I am loving it…I am thinking of adding a few small photos too…

I want it to have that “full.on.scrapbook.hodgepodge.look.”}

I Heart Organization!

I recently had a "WIFE-FAIL" moment...

.pivotal.

the hubs likes to cook…I like to bake. things were perfect. until I let one too many cupcake wrappers get down on his spice shelf. oopsie!

this ensued.

ahhh... life is bliss again at the reagans... :)

Big Love

So... I'm thumbing through my new Feb. Marie Claire... and I see a full page ad for this...

1. I don't know why I love this show. Polygamy = bad. But, this is my guilty pleasure.
2. I have a girl crush on Ginnifer Goodwin.
3. Sunday night... you can't get here fast enough.

We pretty much rock livestrong.com

That is the motivation that helped me loose the 35ish lbs for our wedding last September...

Dare to Change Your Life

We (the hubs & I) use both the internet and the phone aps to track our food intake and check our weight progress. I am {thanks dad} a task-master! I LOVE to-do lists, charts, calendars... anything that helps me stay on track and see results. I think that is one of the main reasons this site worked so well for me. Like I mentioned above I lost about 35 lbs from Jan'09-Sept 09' {the bulk during my cult following of the 20/20 challenge @ Ash is Fit from March to August}. Then... we got hitched. And I got fat. boo. I can't really say that I worked hard at staying little...I gained about 7 lbs on our 7 day cruise...then the "holidays" got the best of me. But... I'm back on the livestrong track now. :)

Here are a couple of my favorite things about it.

{It has weight trackers to let you see your progress... get my point.}

{Keeps track of everything you eat... this is what I had today}

and

{keeps track of the week too... below}

Don't email me and tell me I'm not eating enough calories...I'm not working out.
I'm lazy.
I'm jumpstarting.
Be cool.
