  10. I forgot to mention after not wanting to leave the house for so long now I've planned a trip with the kiddos to Colorado starting Thursday for a full week! I've planned a rafting trip, ziplining, hiking!!! The amount of stuff I want to do now is just crazy! I can't stand to sit in the house any longer!! It's like I'm trying to make up for all my fat years where I was to ashamed to get out and do anything. I'm so excited you just have no idea, I may drown out there but dang it I will be out in the world!!!

  21. Well, I drink a protein shake EVERY morning. Mainly because my stomach is so tight in the morning I can't handle food. Trust me I tried two days ago and it didn't go well. I do like to switch it up for lunch and dinner though. I have some main "snack" type foods I eat if I can fit them into my tracker for the day like the kind bar. I try not to eat processed foods to often but I was stuck on the new meat and cheese roll-ups they sale. They are easy to cut up on some shredded lettuce for lunch. So at times I get in food ruts but I usually get sick of whatever it is. I have issues with changing my complete diet up like one week I was just juicing, the next week I was back to "normal" and then I was "vegetarian" for a week and then when I feel like my stomach is being stressed I will switch back to a few days of only protein shakes and a light dinner like today to give my stomach a rest. I'm all over the place but it works.
  22. @ That's understandable. This should be your last! Take comfort in that,
