Sorry I haven’t been on in awhile.  There’s really nothing to tell you guys, except I broke my ankle and that’s kinda hindering my exercise program.  I have two weeks left til I get the cast off and until then I’ve just been trying to watch my calories.  Haven’t gained any back, actually lost 2 pounds since I broke it, but at least there’s been no gain.  I can tell ya this, I probably lost the two pounds just from lugging my big ol’ body around.  LOL.  It’s funny though, it seems like all I think about is getting back to that gym and working out again.  I can remember a time when the thought of working out made me shudder…So, I guess I’ll let you guys know how I’m doin when the cast comes off and I’m back to running.

I GOT MY PEDICURE!!!!!!!! I am soooooo excited. 22 pounds, and I’m not stopping. Thanks to all you guys for the encouragement. It means so much to me. This hasn’t been easy, cuz I work my butt off at the gym, but it is all worth it! I’ll try to put up a new pic soon, just haven’t taken any yet. Don’t want to be disappointed if they still look the same. LOL. See ya next blog~

I promised myself I would give me a pedicure for every 10 pounds I lose. As you all can see, I’m three pounds away from getting one. I’m so excited. I’m still going to the gym, only 6 days a week. I feel like a big ol cheater when I don’t go, but decided I need to take at least one day off. People are starting to notice my weight loss now, and let me tell ya, nothing feels better than a compliment! I hope everyone else is doing as well as I feel I am. I’ll let ya’ll know more as I do. I don’t get on here as often as I would like, but it’s only cuz I’m sweatin it off at the gym and don’t have much time. Thanks for the comments and encouragement.

It’s been awhile since I’ve been on here, but I’m really glad to say that I finally got on the right track.  I’ve had some issues this past month, but decided they weren’t as important as me being happy with myself.  I joined the local Y, and I’ve been there everyday for 2 weeks straight.  I’ve lost 8 pounds, and I can definitely tell I’ve lost inches.  After I initially joined up here, I had some minor setbacks, but I finally realized it’s totally up to me to become who I want to be.  So…the gym is pretty much my life now.  I’ve even got my daughter going with me to Zumba (if you haven’t done it, please do.  Sooo much fun).  It’s a way for me to spend time with her and get in some good exercise.  I’m doing 2 miles a day on the treadmill three days a week, and Zumba the other two for an hour.  I think I’m doing really well, and I’m actually starting to feel guilty if I even consider not going.  I’m taking steps in the right direction, and I guess that’s what really matters.  I don’t always have alot of time to be on here, but please keep up with the encouraging comments.  You don’t realize how much they mean to someone.  Thanks.

so it’s been awhile, but here goes.  I’ve lost three pounds.  Not much, but it’s somethin.  I just got off the treadmill after walkin/joggin a mile and a quarter.  I feel really good right now.  Hope everyone else is doing well.

was a good day for me.  I decided that I was gonna cut out the cokes, which are a major addiction for me, and i stuck to it.  I finally realized that just because I mess up sometimes, it doesn’t mean that I’m a total failure.  I’ve tried this weight loss thing several times before and always I would screw up and think “well, i screwed up so I might as well eat what I want”.  But I realized I just have to start some rational thinking and things might go my way more easily.  I’m really excited this time, and I can’t exactly figure out why, it just seems like I have some major motivations.  I haven’t weighed yet, because I’m scared and don’t want to get discouraged, but I do know this.  I’m not buying any more fat girl clothes.  LOL.  I’ll check my weight later and let ya know.  Thanks for listening.

so i’m new at this, but wanted to try this out. Need lots of encouragement, so help me out, ok? I just moved my treadmill into the house which is a good thing, cuz finally I’ve decided to use it. That’s somethin at least. Anyway, don’t have much more to say, but thanks for listening.  Questions, comments and general encouragement are always welcome.
