Frustration.

Hello to all my bloggers!

via

So today I need to vent a little bit.

I have always been pretty fit, and in decent shape, but last June I was put on a medication that I didn't realize makes you gain weight, and even worse doesn't really allow your body to lose the weight.

Well over time I noticed the gain, increased my exercise, decreased my food intake, and still no change.

This is how I feel:

Well once I figured out what was causing the gain, I did some research, and decided to get of the medication and try a different one.

I am hoping this helps, but in the meantime I have gained 20 lbs. 

Eek. 

I am asking for your help?! 

If you have any tips, eating habits, or anything, I would be so grateful to hear them!

I am ready to get the body I felt good in back. 

Don't get me wrong, I don't think I'm overweight, but I just am not happy with where I am at right now....

I would love to be in good, healthy shape again!

Happy Wednesday! Loves!

I hope everyone had a great Love Day!

loving my evening I had with my love. Scott took me to a fancy dinner!

We then drove around and watched the snow fall, and even took Milli to the dog park.

Our Dinner 

He surprised me with roses..

Milli at the dog park 

Milli changed her collar for V-day

Funny Story: Scott and I both got each other Disney cards.

He knows I adore Disney and I had to laugh and for sure great minds think alike!

Milli got her dad a card! 

loving that we put Milli in a t-shirt just for a minute. 

She was not impressed.

loving that I get to see Scott's mom and my pop-e this weekend!

Maybe even the twins!

loving that I registered for a teacher fair in 2 weeks! 

Hopefully a job comes out of it!!!

Weekend.

Well Scott and I had a pretty low key weekend.

Friday night we went to the basketball games at the University, and I am happy to say BH won both!

At the game!

Saturday I had to train pretty much all day. Fail.

I ended up curling up on the couch with Milli and watching...

I was in bed super early, and very happy about it!

Sunday, Scott and I lounged around all day. 

I did a little homework and cleaned. 

We watched the Grammy's and I was really impressed with them, except for Nikki M.'s performance. 

And today I am happy to say I am finishing two teaching applications!

and I registered for a teacher fair in March!

Wish me luck!

Happy Monday! 

love story

share your story

I actually just posted Scott and I's story I think about a week ago, but being close to V-day I thought I should link up with this! 

1. How long have you and your significant other been together?

Over 3 1/2 years. 4 years this May. 

2. How did you meet? {What's your "love" story?}

Basically we met at my cousin's graduation party, but in detail you can read here. 

3. If married, how long have you been married? If not, is this the guy you hope to marry? {do tell}

We aren't married..... yet haha! I am hoping it to maybe in the near future, and yes this is the guy I want to marry. 

4. If you are married, where did you get married at? Big or small wedding?  If not, where would you like to get married? And will it be big or small?

I have two ideas for a wedding part of me wants to go away and get married on a beach very small and have a big reception when we get back, the other part of me wants a big wedding with everyone there around my home....

5. Do you have any nick-names that you call one another? Do share!

I call him Muir. He calls me babe, or dirty little trash bag haha (all in good fun)

6. Name 3 things you love most about your honey.

1. He is my best friend. He knows me better than I like to admit, and vis versa. I love that there isn't anything I really don't share with him. 

2. He makes me laugh all the time! Even when I'm spitting nails mad at him! 

3. He loves my family. That is such a big deal to me because I have a huge family and I am so family oriented. 

 

7. Tell us how he proposed? Or your ideal proposal?

Something unique. I don't want something that a lot of girls can say. AND DEFINITELY ALONE! I freak out in front of people. I can barely open a gift in front of more than 2 people...

8. Is he a flowers and teddy bear kind of guy for v-day, or strawberries, champagne, and rose petals?

Haha....neither. Scott is not very romantic. He gets me roses now and then which I love! I love flowers, but no he is usually gets me something I want..kinda like a birthday.

9. Are you a sunset dinner on the beach kind of girl, or pop a movie in and relax on the couch?

Both, and actually neither at the same time. Those are both nice, but I like unique dates, like hiking or something else. Scott and I's first date was to hot pools around our home area.

10. Tell us one thing you'd like to do with your significant one day. If you could do anything? Go anywhere?

Oh wow. So many things. I want Scott to come on my family's annual trip to Disneyland! Its a special trip for my family, and for me, and I would love for him to experience that. 

11. Tell us what you plan on doing on this Valentine's Day.

Scott just answered me. He says "Secret" which means aka in my mind "what do you feel like doing Kae?" haha

12. Are you asking for anything this Valentine's day?

A ring. Just kidding (too normal) Not really just a nice night with my love.

13. Give us one piece of advice of keeping a relationship strong and full of love.

Communicate. Communicate. Communicate. Scott and I spent our first 2 1/2 years distance. So communication is huge. Second, when mad...think about that moment you knew you loved them. It will always help you get through it. 

14.  Show us a picture of what love means to you.

This was from the beginning and has always been my favorite.

Hope you enjoyed :) 

xxoo
