Week Update

So my weight loss plan is going pretty well so far. For the first week, Haleigh, my sister, and I walked up the biggest and most strenuous hill of the BYUI campus and then would walk in a big loop-de-loop on our way back down to my car. Each day we walked, I lost a pound!! How cool is that! So but the last three days of this week, I have just made sure I cut back on the amount that I was eating and was conscience of what I was eating. Eventually, I am going to try and change John and I's diet completely and try something cleaner but at the moment being a married college couple the budget for that is in question and it doesn't help if you wNt to start eating through all the stuff you have and then your husband surprises you by going to Albertson's during their super BOGO sale last week! So at the moment, I am just at the watch what I eat and exercise stage. But for this week having lost four pounds and not gained a pound back during the exercise off days, I would have to say I am doing pretty swell!

For some background details, John and I rent a two bedroom apartment that allows pets obviously. It's pretty pricy but we have been blessed here in Rexburg to both have jobs since December last year. 

But before that we were not affording this nice apartment very well so we offered our second room out to our family and to give them a break on cost vs the campus apartments. Now I would NEVER NEVER suggest this for someone else who were still freshly married but for the time we offered it, we needed it. So for exactly a entire year ago, we had no use of one room because someone was there. Not any more!

 Now John and I have the whole apartment to ourselves and what do I do first....... Move everything!!! 

I love change for some weird reason. My furniture usually does not sit in one place for more than three weeks maybe a month before I have to, and I mean have to, move it! 

So I have started in the master bedroom which is no longer our bedroom but our rec room! It has John's homework/Game Center desk in one corner, my craft desk in the other corner, and the tv with all of it's add-ons like the Wii, Playstation, VCR, and DVD player. So that the front room has become the sitting, visitor room and the extra bedroom where we sleep and clothe. The task has seemed so taunting because of the huge amount of stuff we have accumulated over the year and a half we have been in this apartment. When we moved to this apartment we had clothes, some bathroom stuff, and a tv. Now I have made our master closet into a storage closet because our van was being our storage locker. I am not really sure how we got so much stuff....

Anyways this is just a preview of my changes. Many more to come in the next weeks!
