Happy 4th!!!

Happy 4th of July!!!  This past weekend went by way too fast.  Our family from Nebraska came to town on Friday and we had a blast.  There is nothing like fun times spent with the people I love the most to get me out of any funk I may be in.  Due to the drought we've had all firework celebrations were cancelled.  I was a little upset because I was looking forward to seeing Makenna's reaction now that she's older but we still made the best of it.  We played games (Guessture & Catch Phrase), did some shopping at The Domain, BBQ and of course consumed LOTS of alcohol.  That is usually what happens when we all get together.  I was able to get some pool time in which was refreshing and miserable at the same time.  I did not want to be seen in a swim suit.  We also had to have Mexican food at least once every day they were here.  Since they are from Nebraska that is a staple they are not privileged too like we are.  Oh and to make it worse my mom kept a full house of desserts.  Ugh!  I feel like a complete Fat Ass!  Lol…not that I didn’t know I’m huge already but stepping on the scale today and realizing I’ve gained 4lbs since my last weigh in really has me upset.  It’s crazy to me how fast I can gain when I stop watching what I’m eating.  I’m pretty sure I will always have to count calories and exercise no matter what size I get down to.  My genetics SUCK!!! 

Time to get my butt back to the gym and back on a healthy diet.  I’ve slacked off so much lately and I really don’t want to continue down this path.  I’m signing back up with SparkPeople and getting on a routine with Gold’s Gym as well.  I saw pictures of myself that we took while family was in town and I was disgusted!  I know I need to set my goals so I’ve decided that I’d like to be down 50lbs by December.  Honestly as long as I watch what I eat and put in time at the gym this should be a piece of cake being that the heavier you are the faster you drop your weight. Wish me luck with this guys.  Once I have the link for my homepage on SparkPeople I’ll let everyone know so you can see my progress.
