San Diego

We had a great relaxing trip to San Diego. Even though being out of town was really hard on my diet it was well worth the warmth.The first day we were there we went to our favorite breakfast place on the beach. Shad was able to enjoy the sand and not so much to cold water. He went running for the water as soon as we got down there but freaked out when the water came rushing toward him.




Shad and I went to Lake Murray to feed the ducks. At first he did not like it at all and kept saying "no why" which is actually no way.

He got into it after a while but decided that it would be quicker to dump the bag of popcorn instead of throwing a few kernels at a time.

At Seaport Village we tried the Merry Go Round which to no ones surprise he hated but at least calmed down when I gave up on getting him on the horse and sat down on the bench.


Chillin in our hotel watching the Opening Ceremonies for the Winter Olympics which was a huge disappointment.

We drove up to Chico to surprise my sister for her birthday. We were very successful at surprising her and had a blast hanging out with her and her roommates.

Success so far

After dieting and exercising for roughly 7 weeks I am 10 lbs lighter and it feels great. I don't really feel it in my clothes yet but I do feel good physically. I have been about to eliminate most if not all cravings which makes it a ton easier to eat healthy. I do however still treat myself every now and then so I am still enjoying life. I get most of my exercise on the Wii Fit which surprisingly gets my heart racing and the sweat dripping. It is also a blast to watch Shad try to copy what I am doing, his favorites are boxing and running. I am determined to lose 30 lbs by the time we go to Disneyland in June so that I will win my reward of a new bike trailer and I think that I am on track to do that as long as I do not lose focus.
