New Diet

Today, Ryan and I are starting a new diet. Ryan has done this diet a few times in the past and it's worked really well for him. And since mama is still not back to her pre-Judah weight, I'm joining in on the fun this time! I'm about to head into the kitchen to throw away 3/4s of our food! Can't wait!
