It's almost April..

Dude, it's almost April. Where has time gone? Before you know it summer will be fully here.. and most of us will continue working as if "summer" does not exist, haha. Don't you miss having the WHOLE summer off as a kid.. I do! So I'm recently obsessed with the Vitamin water zero.. the orange flavor and particularly for summer time this flavor "squeezed" tastes like delicious lemonade minus the calories AND my next adventure is to try and mix it with crushed ice for a frozen lemon treat. Sometimes Target has them on special for $1.. I'm going to check out Sam's and see if I can buy a ton of them.. yum!

[summer is here!]

On the other hand let us move along into another aspect of my life, Weight Watchers. As some of you may or may not know that's how I lost a lot of weight a long time ago and now I am back on it and minus 18 pounds already.. love them, love their program. A lot of people who don't know about WW refer to it as a diet.. sometimes I hear things like "Is THAT part of your diet??" well well well my friends. That's the difference with WW it's not a diet, more of a lifestyle change, they teach people about portion control, nutritional information, and how to eat in moderation. Therefore, YES, I can have that.. for example today's breakfast/lunch looked like this..

Two buscuits with sausage gravy & that my friends was delicious. And that is why people are so successful on WW, you don't deprive yourself, there's nothing you "can't" have.. that's why people are duhhhhhh winning! Anyhow this is not an ad or a ploy haha, we all have cheat days so let's embrace them, not shun them! That is all.

While I am working on a Sunday, most people would be sad about this, I indeed was slightly upset when I found out it was going to be 90 degrees and sunny, I do love being tan! Then I realized I kind of have a 3 day week in the middle of the week. Who can say that? After working Monday, Tuesday we have a meeting for the station at Latitude 30 and then bowling.. BOOM. I love bowling. Wednesday the sun better continue to shine because Wednesday Friendsday will be in full effect.. what is Wednesday Friendsday? It's an amazing invention where friends get together on the beach and have a great time! Hopefully the weather cooperates, Ashley will be in town so drinks will be had! Then the third day of my midweek weekend Thursday, my hair will finally be back to it's full blond potential, and then after Ashley's magic is worked on my hair I'm hosting an event or something like that at the Clay County Fair! I love fairs..

I love a lot of things but I don't love the crazy drunk homeless man that told me I was "fully loaded" in no particular context, odd. Happy Sunday Funday!!

Finally!

I've always wanted a blog where I can bring all the elements of my life into one place. I mean I post SO many pictures of food, and things I find awesome on Facebook.. I wanted a place where I could talk more and do more of what I want without annoying all my friends by forcing them to read it via Facebook. I could never find a blog with a happy medium.. they were either too simple with just text, or too time consuming by making you post html codes just to post pictures. And let's be honest I have no idea how to do that, nor do I have the time or patience to learn. I also like blogs because they kind of keep you accountable if you're going with the whole weight loss thing. I used to be really into working out every single day, and then I discovered beer and my strong love for it haha, so that stopped happening for about a year and half or so. But I started back up again and it's so amazing to be back to all of that! So I would like to keep whoever reads this updated on delicious food (good and bad), my weight loss goals/journey, and of course my radio life including celebrity updates when necessary. Oh yeah and of course for myself. We will start off with a couple pictures of what I used to look like, right after I graduated highschool in 2004 when I weighed 260 pounds and then what I look like now, if you don't know me it's good to know that I'm also 5'11.
