That sounds great! It is always better when you have someone to answer to. Speaking of which, I am having a coupon, learn how to save money class on Wednesday. Aly is coming, would you like to come too?? P.s. Maybe sometime this week you could show me some Yoga. I am thinking that it would help my stress immensely!

I'm with ya, Britt! I've been trying to lose the baby weight! I never used to like fish either until just a few weeks ago my dad made some amazing salmon and now Brady and I eat it at least once a week. The frozen salmon at costco that's already marinated is really good too! Give it a try. Also, we eat huge salads for lunch with tons of great stuff packed on it and a delicious poppyseed dressing that we make that's really healthy. Let me know if you want the recipe!
