Introductions & such

In the about me section I have my starting weight, age, etc.. etc.. but in case you missed it here is me in a nut shell. I'm 25, I stay at home with my baby boy... well hes no longer a baby, hes a 14 month-old toddler. Korry [my hubby] & Haden are the light of my life, I couldn't imagine my life without either of them. And anyone who says stay at home moms have it easy & just sit on the couch and eat bon-bons all day don't know any good mommy's or have been misinformed. It is hard work, especially mentally. And I consider myself very lucky because my son is so even tempered. Even thou he still knows how to push my buttons. But other than taking care of Haden I still have to try to keep up with the house, which recently hasn't been so easy because I have a herniated disk in my back. And have to have blood work done to find out why I'm SO tired all the time. If it sit for even a few minutes to feed Haden his lunch I'm struggling to keep my eyes open most days. I go to my family doctor on the 12th.
The herniated disk HOPEFULLY won't be an issue too much longer because I go in on the 11th to the spine specialist and they are going to put an epidural in my lower lumbar & inject some anti-inflammatory medication where the disk is bulging out & pressing on the nerves.

Moving on...
With the "Biggest Loser 30 day Jump Start", which I'm using as a guide to get me back on track because my weight loss has been at a stand still for over a month, I'm trying a lot of new recipes & eating according to their meal plans. I also bought some Designer Whey Protein Powder today for before & after my workouts.

I also tried a few food today. So I've had bean sprouts before, but never alfalfa sprouts... they are wonderful. I really liked them on my whole grain wrap for lunch today. And for dinner tonight I'm making "Doc's chili" [its out of the book]. It sounds really good, I've never cared for chili in the past but I'm happy to give it a try.

Wish me luck with the Chili!!!!
