Another update!

Man we're getting much better about keeping this thing up to date! We'll see what happens when Steve goes back to school in a few weeks. Things are good, we both just started a new diet, or better yet a new eating style. . . 0 sugar. That might not sound that difficult to those of you who haven't tried it, but it's pretty tough, at least for one of us:) So far Steve is feeling fantastic, he's noticed big difference in his energy levels, his hunger cravings, and his attention span. Amy on the other hand is struggling as she spends her days dreaming of chocolate fountains and sugary cereal. We've quickly discovered how literally EVERYTHING has sugar in it, literally! Things we'd never imagined would have sugar sure do, things like cheese, seasoning salt, and every freaking salad dressing on the shelf except for literally one. So pretty much our diet consists of raw and cooked vegetables, fruits, lean proteins, and brown rice, beans, and potatoes. We're sure it doesn't sound like much, but it's surprisingly satisfying especially since we have no sugar in our systems messing with our insuling levels and causing hunger cravings. Anyways, other than "the diet" things are going well, we can't believe that the summer has gone by SO quickly, Steve isn't at all excited about going back to school, but we're sure he'll cheer up once he gets going. It's going to be an extremely busy year for him, as the saying goes "the first year of school they scare you to death, the second year they work you to death, and the third they bore you to death." Not only is he on the Law Review, a really important academic journal, but he's spending 12 hours a week researching for a professor! Hopefully he comes home once in a while. Amy is still waiting to start her new job as a personal trainer, she was hired three weeks ago, but still hasn't gotten to start, we'll see if it ever happens!
