I'm Sleeping with Darth Vader!

J finally has his c-pap machine for his sleep apnea, and while the thing itself doesn't make any sound, he on occasion does! His lips will come apart just the tiniest bit, and air hisses out. It's fun! That and last night I came to bed after him and he was spread all the way out onto my side, and bless his heart, I could NOT get him to scoot. I had about 1/3 of the bed for myself...awkward! I'm sure it will all get easier!

I've got to take pictures, C-man's lost another tooth! C was over at a buddy's after church today, and while eating supper with their family, one of his top teeth fell out! YAY!!! We've been trying to tell him it was just hanging there, just yank it out or bite something with his front teeth...but, he wouldn't! Thankfully it came out on it's own! I"m not real good with the tooth pulling...I was squeamish about it as a kid, it took an act of congress to get any of my teeth out with ANYONE'S help! J got C's first tooth out, and C did something, I think just played with it, and got the 2nd out on his own. Today was his 3rd and he's got 2 more loose. It will be interesting to see how the tooth thing goes with our Diva Darling!

Weather the past 2 days....A-MA-ZING!!!! I had out short sleeve tops today, it was kind of nice! However, living in E. Tennessee, I'm fully aware that this could be too good to stick around! It could very well change in an instant, but the sun is welcome for now!

Well, we are down 5 weeks on South Beach and 4 on Biggest Looser! I've lost 20 lbs!!! Just gotta keep up the momentum! I won 2 weeks at Biggest Looser, and I'm willing to bet J's won this past weeks! He lost 6 lbs this past week. I think that's 9 or 10 at Biggest Looser, and I'm not sure his overall. He missed the very first weigh in. I think what will help is keeping up the exercise at home, which I haven't been very consistent with, and keeping a handle on the carbs throughout the day. If we have 1 meal with carbs and are sparing on the others, we still seem to loose at a healthy pace. The 1st week on phase 2, we were getting used to adding them back in and didn't do so well. This week showed better results. It's all a process!

Alright, I'm going to try to go back to bed and see how this Darth Vader thing goes....I may meet up with the couch....gotta get some sleep tonight!!!

My Dad used to have one of those machines then he got the surgery that like rips out the whole back of your throat :)

Congrats on the weight loss! You go girl!!!!

I remember when I was in first grade I had one of those expanders in my mouth from the orthodontist and it caused me to lose my top 4 front teeth within a week!

Okay I think those comments were random enough ;-)
