Reunion and WW update

This past weekend was our annual Bryan Family Reunion! It was so much fun, even though Matt, Daniel and Ashley couldn't make it! The kids had a huge bounce house (that was fun for the big kids too hehe) and we had some pretty cool games too! We played Ellen's version of musical chairs, which was hilarious! Hopefully it will end up on her show! We also played Bingo (I won twice!) and had a cookie and ice cream contest! Here is our big group picture :)



Tomorrow will be the 1 month mark of me being on Weight Watchers. I've done really good (I think) but I didn't meet my goal for this month. I am so frustrated that I am barely eating anything, yet it is taking so long for these pounds to come off! This has been an extremely busy month, with traveling and Easter, which makes it next to impossible to stay on track, because it would be rude to your hosts to bring your own "healthy" meal.

Next month will be the same. Traveling, birthdays, ANNIVERSARY, which means cake cake CAKE! I'm starting to wonder if I will ever get to my goal weight. This whole diet thing is draining me and our pockets. It is so EXPENSIVE to eat healthy!! And someone please explain to me why my husband is losing more weight than me and he's not even doing weight watchers! Sure he is eating my WW dinners that I have been cooking, but he is eating double the amount. I am beyond frustrated.

Even though i'm frustrated right now with the diet, I am still counting the points! Last night was cooking extravaganza! I started out by making banana nut bread, since it would take an hour in the oven. I must say, this is so easy to make, so good to eat, and only 3 points to log down! For dinner we had spaghetti with sauteed chicken and grape tomatoes! So far this is my favorite WW meal! It is SO good, and only 5 points! I got both of these recipes from www.skinnytaste.com, an awesome WW recipe blog.

This coming weekend is the last, but not least, D-Now for Matt to speak at! Not gonna lie, pretty happy to have my hubby back after this weekend, but from what the kids are saying, he is doing a pretty dang good job! I'm a proud wife :)
