Sorry it's been so long. We've been busy lately. Went to the Toronto Fan Expo on Sunday, had a lot of fun :)

Nathan is a Jonas fan!


Hope everyone is well and I will post more soon.

New blog for my diet stuff

If anyone is interested in following my hcg diet, make sure to read my other blog:

My Journey with hCG

Rainy day and the hCG diet

It's supposed to rain all day today. It's been so hot lately that it's nice to have a bit of cool finally.

Nathan is doing good. He's still not talking, but he understands a lot of things. One of his molars is coming in and he's been awfully cranky, especially at night. He doesn't eat much for breakfast and lunch but he's quite a porker at dinner time, haha.

I've started the hcg diet and have lost quite a bit of weight. I started on July 28th and have lost 18 pounds. It hasn't been too difficult eating such low calorie meals (500 calories a day) and to be honest, I've actually enjoyed it. I've discovered new recipes and meals to eat and even with not being able to eat a large variety, I've learned how to make what I can eat very tasty. One thing that I discovered while researching online are Miracle Noodles. I absolutely love them. Toss some with low sodium chicken broth, some poultry seasoning, a little sea salt and strips of grilled chicken (3.5oz of chicken breast) and some grape tomatoes on the side and it's like eating raman :) I just might start another blog here and list all the recipes I've made so I can remember them and share them with others. Even when I go to Phase 3 of the diet (maintenance, where I can eat more calories) I can eat these foods, just slightly larger portions. When the diet is over, I plan on still eating these foods, they're really good!

Hope everyone is well. I'll post some pictures soon!

P.S. Here's a video of Nathan from Sunday night :)
