I started this site in 2005 after our son, Wyatt, was born with a cleft palate. Over the years the posts became less about Wyatt's condition and more about every day life. Seven years later, its a place to chronicle my journey as an Army Wife and a working mother of two children struggling to find balance in life.

18.5lbs To Go! I Feel Good!
I've been running/walking 5k every other day. I've already dropped a few pounds! I try not to exceed 1000 cals per day, which is what the nutrionist suggests.
I detoxed from white flour and sugar over the last two days...it was tough! I have a cup of tea and the calcium chews in the morning, an apple after I run, a Kashi or South Beach meal for lunch, a protien shake or fat free latte for snack, South Beach meal for dinner, fruit and a cup of tea for evening snack. I've started taking B-12 and really being careful of my vitamin intake. I've been running into too many people that are post-op and having issues because they aren't religious about their vitamins.
I've also been trying to get 60oz of water - but its hard AND I hate peeing all the time! Who has time to pee when they have a rabid 2yr old running around?!! LOL!!!
