It's been awhile since either of us have posted, so here it goes.
Week 11 - I was up 3lbs and Nicole up 2.5lbs (Excuse (LOL): VACATION BABY! :) Keep in mind we had to eat out every single meal. (Lisa and Chad cooked us steak dinner one night and it was amazing) Dad's fridge wasn't working among many other things...)
Week 12 - I was up another 2lbs and Nicole just .5 (Excuse: she doesn't eat baked goods and chocolate like I do, she's a good girl when it's that time of the month!)
Week 13 - YAY, we're actually down from Week 12. Jen - 1.5lbs and Nicole - 1lb. We started to get back on track and are anticipating a better Week 14, but more importantly a better August! We don't have TOO many plans in August that would contribute to weight gain, so stay tuned! We're not too far away from our lows and can't wait to drop some more!
As you have probably seen on our Facebook we had a great time in So. Cal of course with some exceptions. Let's just say my Dad is going through some changes and definitely needs some prayer in his life and sent his way! Seeing Lisa (my sister) and her family was amazing. They are doing so well and it was so great to get in as much time as we did with them. We're hopeful they will make a trip up here soon!
I will let Nicole post when she is ready about some changes headed our way.. So nobody freaks, it's about school vs. family planning.. Timing is everything and don't we all wish we could predict the future sometimes!!! :)

Week 10 and workin' hard!
Okay, wow so I turned over blogging rights to Nicole for the last two weeks and she just hasn't had time, so here it is!
Last two weeks have been busy, stressful, good, fun, among many other things! We have really just been trying to maintain and that we have been able to do. Today, Week 10 weigh in we're both just up .5lbs from our lows. I've got -14.5lbs and Nicole has -15.5lbs under her belt! Still household total of 30lbs! Our weight is fluctuating quite a bit week to week, but we always manage to stay on track and work hard to get it back! I say we're living a healthy lifestyle with exceptions!
Nicole got an A in her Group Communications class and has started Psychology of Social Processes which she feels comfortable about! Lots of test and quiz taking, but she's good at that! :)
Work has been the same and steady for both of us; we're so grateful. Last month we were able to pay 800 on our RC Willey and have just 900 left! 500 this month and 400 next and we're done! I'm so proud of us! The no Starbucks has really contributed along with dieting because we just rarely dine out. I can say now that Starbucks daily is a thing of the past for me. Last time I filled my Starbucks card up was in April! Hard to believe, but now I can't believe I didn't do it sooner!
August will be an exciting month for us! We're going to put our first deposit down @ the Hyatt and take Nicole's family to check it out with us! Good news about that also... we don't have to use our Savings\Emergency Fund for it. We can afford it!
Hard work is paying off and things are just amazing in this household. We are so blessed!
