For The Record

Dear Dalton, aka Bubba, aka Bubby and Austin, aka Ausman,

Mommy and Daddy started a new way of life this morning. Mommy has been trying for a couple months and before that for a solid 4 months. Daddy however has never really been on board which made it easy for Mommy to jump ship a lot. Daddy weighed in this morning at 259.4lbs and Mommy weighed in at 204.3lbs. Mommy thinks she has come a long way because its seems like I have been up and down etc with my weight since I was a child. I met your Daddy weighing 157lbs size 14 pant (this is my goal) then nine months pregnant with you I weighed 265lbs and about 1 month later I lost 30lbs(baby weight) putting me at 235lbs. I stayed home with you for a year and just leveled out at that weight. About a year ago I started at the gym lost 30lbs and a lot of inches but then life got crazy and one day I stopped going and never returned. So then with my choices and Daddy's choices of food I gained back the 30lbs just over a few months.
I started about 3 months ago watching what I ate and eating much smaller portions of the things I love (coffee, sweets etc). I am down 27.8lbs down (Aunt Dessy brought that to my attention). I sure hold my head high and have more pep in my step.
I think Daddy sees this and is miserable with himself as well. He graduated highschool at 145lb and his nickname was sticks (Wood). We went to Walmart yesterday and bought I top of the line (40.00) scale and sat it in the back hallway. We weigh in on Mondays ONLY and write our weight down on a chart! We love you Dalton and your brother Austin so we choose to make this coming year great and active with a jump start starting today! No more McDonald's Bubby sorry :( You tell Daddy NO when he tries to tempt us to the Drive-Thru Devil!!! :)

Come summertime Bubba, your Daddy is gonna have to hold on tight to mommy cause she will be smokin hott in a two piece! Come my 10 year class reunion this year your Daddy will stand next to me proud as I will stand next to him super proud as well.
We love you boys....
Love Mommy and Daddy
