    No Mack in the picture, he was sleeping. Did my group aerobics class today and I don't think I was ready to go back, I got a bit sick in the beginning but I stuck through it and made it through the entire class! Woo-who! I have group yoga tomorrow, I'm excited :)

    Oh yea! Tomorrow is going to be my last picture before Sunday night, I'll post Friday's and Saturdays with Sunday's cause we're going camping with some friends and alas, no internet while camping. So I'm not skipping days, the pictures will come!

    Day 19: 216 lbs

    So I have officially missed a day :'( Hopefully it'll never happen again, but in it's place here's an accurate representation of how different my husband and I are. I got fat free, 100% daily Vitamin C Fruit Snacks, he got the world's biggest bag of chocolate bars. Men =P

    Day 15: 216 lbs

    My fever has been a no show but the side effects of the meds I'm on for my lovely case of pneumonia suck! So far I've been nauseous and I get really really really thirsty no matter how much water and gatoraide I drink :( Yeah for another week of this madness! *still whistling Life of Brian*

    Hm...maybe I should find a pose and stick with it so there's not so much movement in the pictures. I try to get the angle the same each time...I'm hoping for when I finally get to my goal I'll time lapse all the photos, a pose might make it less awkward...what do you think?
