YAY! I am finally back from building stuff haha!
Sorry I didn't update like I promised but my friends laptop was broken so I didn't have access to the internet.
I wasn't able to actually build a home for someone because they split us up into teams and I was chosen to build a shed. We had 4 people working on one shed and it took us ALL week to build the darn thing. We started will litterally 4 cinderblocks, a pile of wood, and some nails. It was so amazing after it was finished when I could walk into the shed and look around at what I had built. It was sooo hard and sooo rewarding. We got to meet one of the people that would be moving into the house and using the shed we built and it felt great knowing that I was doing something so wonderful for them :D
I am always sad at the end of things like this because I know that there is a very slim chance that I will ever see most of these people again :/ But atleast I made new friends :D
I will post a few pictures as soon as i figure out how too haha.
I wasnt able to stick to the diet to well because they were feeding me. All they had to eat for breakfast was doughnuts and bagels and stuff like that. For lunch we had sandwiches. And for supper we had stuff like jambalaya, pasta, briskit and stuff like that. So instead of concentrating mainly on what I was eating I tried to concentrate more on portion control. And I drank mostly water because it was soo hot out there. I also skipped desert like cookies, chips, and ice cream. So I am hoping with all the hard work I have done that it will sort of balance out and I will weigh the same, instead of gain. I guess we will find out tomorrow :/

Awesome! What a wonderful accomplishment. I really admire you for choosing to spend your Spring Break in such an un-selfish way. It's AMAZING that you are making the world a better place though your positivity, hard work, compassion, and generosity (with your time). Who cares about carbs :P hahaha but you were so wise to focus on portion control, and hydration, and skipping unnessary junk-food extras and desserts. I'm sure you burned a lot of calories in the construction business. But, really, whatever the scale says -- nothing can compare to the amazing work you have done for that family, the friendships you've made, and the memories you've created. WOW! YAY! VERY COOL!

What a wonderful experience! I'm sure you worked off most of those carbs, good job avoiding the desserts though. That was great! Good job!

I think out of all the reasons I have heard that people couldn't control what they ate.....this is the only one that makes sense. What a great experience and I bet your body burned a lot of those calories. Glad you had a memorable time.
