Quote of the week...
Jared and I attempted to start the South Beach Diet this week. I have to admit that I didn't have much faith in my husband lasting more than a few hours. Yesterday morning I made a South Beach breakfast and sent him on his way with a baggy of almonds and instructions on what to eat for lunch. He arrived home at 7:30pm and was real hungry. I had baked some chicken and then shredded it and added some mayonnaise and green onion and celery and rolled it into a big piece of lettuce. When he got home I told him his meal was on the counter and I was going to go blog off some stress. Later, he comes into our bedroom and says in this very serious voice, "We need to talk, turn away from the computer so I know your listening." I turn around and he says "Can we come up with our own diet?" Huh. I knew it...problems with the diet. Then he says "I appreciate the meal that you made for me, but I gagged on the first bite and then choked down 2 of those things." At first I thought I was going to receive a compliment, not so much. I know my husbands limits, and this isn't offensive to me at all. We had a great laugh about it, and after all the drama with Court that was exactly what I needed. So, no South Beach for Jared and I'm okay with that. I think he looks fabulous just like he is anyway.

Oh my heck that post is hilarious!! Isn't honesty a great thing!?!? I think what you made sounds good so maybe I should come over for lunch and see if I can gag it down too.!!
Oh my word. That is the funniest thing I have heard all day! I can just see him coming in all serious like this diet is life or death for him. Neither of you need a diet. Meet us at BK for dinner?
Love the post. Shane wouldn't have taken the first bite. Have to applaud Jared for that!! Funny!!!
Pretty sure Justin and Jared are brothers! But I really don't think Justin would have been able to get 2 of them down... whats your secret. Anyhow whats the south beach diet? Can yo do it is your nursing. Post baby body is really starting to get to me.
Oh brother!!! That picture you posted of the two of you looks AWESOME!!! I think you both look fantastic. No diet necessary.
that's funny. i wouldn't take jared as a dieter. he's in great shape, if he loses anymore weight, he will look anorexic, seriously what is there to loose? you two look awesome!
way too funny! I am thinking that both of you DON'T need the south beach diet. Your both so slender already!. although I did do the SBD after Garrett was born...and I can agree with Jared I think I lost weight because I WAS SO HUNGRY! Weight watchers is so much better :o)
wish we could see you guys when you come up but I think we are going to be gone while your here..bummer!
