I'm starting a diet...

So I am starting this diet.... the first 8 days is a detox... I can only eat veggies and oil... and not even the veggies I like... no carrots or corn. bummer. After 4 days I get to add whole grains, like amaranth, quinoa, millet and buckwheat. After the 8 day detox part, I get to add chicken, eggs, fish and turkey. This is day two and so far I'm already tired of lettuce, zucchini, cauliflower, cabbage, and onions. But I know this diet works. This diet was "invented" by Dr. Kellas. My family met him what I was 8, I had a lot of allergies and after going on this diet they were all gone with in two weeks!!! At that time, my dad was 500 lbs. and was told he would die within 6 months of a heart attack... long story short... he lost 200 lbs on this diet and is still around 20 years later. So I'm giving it my best shot. My goal is to loose 50 lbs by the end of the year.... we will see if I can do it. :-) I really want to loose the weight before we start trying to have another child. I talked with my Dr. he said go for it... so I'm seeing Dr. Kellas down in San Diego once a month. You can check out the website for his clinic if you want. http://www.camhealthtalk.com/ Center for Advanced Health. And yes I have an exercise program too. Anyway, here is a picture of my breakfast this morning, and Mackenzie loves it, Kaitlyn won't even try it. :-)

A Random Sampling






Mommy and Kaitlyn Day at Disneyland









Once a month Aaron and I try to split the kids up for one-on-one time... Kaitlyn has been asking for two week for a mommy/Kaitlyn day at Disneyland.... so on Wednesday I took Kaitlyn to Disneyland. She wanted to see all the princesses... which is great, because there is no way we could wait to see them if Mackenzie was with us. The only rides we went on all day were Winnie the Pooh, Alice in Wonderland, and Monsters Inc. But she had the best time ever. When we got home, daddy asked her "What was your favorite thing today?" and Kaitlyn say "The Ice Cream!!!" Next time... we go to Rite Aid! :-)
