Welcome to the babble!

Warning: I talk a lot! About anything and everything. I don't hold back. So buckle up.

in 2010 I got the gastric sleeve and I couldn't be happier with my decision. My new life has finally begun!

Finally in 2012 I got my life's wish of being pregnant. Now this blog has transitioned from random blabber, to weight loss, to being a new mommy.
It's ever changing and ever evolving, just like me.

Halloweeny goodness w/pics!

Tonight was great!! But I don't want to be too long winded so I'll post the bullet points of why tonight was awesome.

-our costumes were a HUGE hit, everyone loved them

-they were super duper comfy!

-the party was on a rooftop so we were at the mercy of mother nature but it was actually cool out and there    was a nice breeze the entire night! also it didn't rain till after the party ended. :)

-I had so much more energy and stamina than last year! I danced sooo much. My husband looked at me with wonder at first. lol. I wasn't miserable and complainy. I was fun and energetic. :)

-I ate before the party AND I prepared myself an egg and cheese sandwich on a whole grain english muffin and packed it and took it to the party. Other than one stale dorrito and 2 stale tortillas with guacamole, I didn't eat the food at the party. I drank my waters (crystal light fruit punch yum!) and halfway through the party I warmed up my sandwich. So yummy and so much better than anything at the party. It took me like 45 min to eat it and it was a lot of food for me. As a matter of fact I couldn't eat the very last bite. It was just what my body needed. Fuel.  Then around 3am my friend started making chicken and she had all this other yummy yummy cuban pastry stuff. I had one croqueta hot out of the oven. It was good. And I had 3 small bites of chicken. Perfectly hit the spot.

-I eyed those halloween candies hardcore. I just stared them down for a long time. I imagined what they would taste like. If they had been peanut butter cups or butterfingers or m&ms I probably would have had one. But it was just snickers, milky way, 3 musketeers, and twix. I'm like meh. They're not really worth it. If i'm gonna splurge I want something that I'm gonna be in heaven with. Not just something thats ok.  So....i didn't eat not one piece of candy!!! woohoo!! go me!!

ok and now for the pics
