Week 5 results and Where the Wild Things Aren't

I am back on track and lost 5 pounds last week! My total is 10 pounds lost and I am done a size in jeans. Nice feeling....

...By the way don't waste your money and see "Where the Wild Things Are". It was Jake's favorite book when he was little and I had it memorized! I was soooo excited to hear they were making it into a movie...until I saw it. This movie is really not kid friendly and not what I think of when I think of the book at all. It was a big bummer. Jake was bored out of his mind, said it kind of scared him (he had seen all all the Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies and they didn't scare him. I think this was more of a creepy, why are they doing that, kind of scared) , and he didn't get it. Frankly I didn't get it. I did really, but I didn't like it. The wild things were different personality traits that Max had in himself....Still didn't like it. And the ending was HORRIBLE! As Jake said after the movie "well there goes 2 hours we can never get back!". Where he gets his sense of humor, I do not know. :)

  1. I am sad to hear about the movie being not that great it looked like it was going to be fun. I heard another friends of ours didn't like it either.

    GREAT job! on ten pounds! I am so proud of you! And holy cow, I assume you are watching biggest loser? We love that shoe, but have to wait until it is online to see it, so I haven't seen last night, if they dont' vote Tracey off soon I might just freak out! I hate the really bad game players! What do you think?

  2. I heard the movie was crap!!! That is so funny what Jake said!!!

    I am so proud of you, I just got caught up on your blog and I think it is great you are going public with the whole weight lose thing-that takes guts!!! I don't think I could do it! Anyway, I know you can do it just don't give up no matter what. I am working on the pregnancy weight and I just have to remind myself it is a marathon. It takes time and I will be hear for you for anything you need!!!

    One tip I like to do is not eat after dinner so that I go to bed a little hungry. Try it see if you like it!!! Good luck-you are awesome and I know you can do it!!!!

  3. YEAH for losing 10 pounds!! That is quite an achievement. It always feels good to move down a pant size.

    I'm glad to know that I shouldn't waste my time or money seeing Where the Wild Things Are. How disappointing!!!

  5. Good job on losing weight! That is my goal too! Halloween is kinda screwing me up though. Tomorrow I will work extra hard at the gym so I can eat candy tomorrow night! Then I will be back on track on Sunday...hopefully!
