Good OVER THE HUMP DAY!

Goodmorning my beautiful friends,

This is a crazy busy week for me. I got a new job as a membership consultant at the Downtown YMCA that I am super excited for. It is a big step up in the world. So yay me .. Todays weight? GAG lol Not where I want it to be.. I need to step up my exercise.

Going to try some yoga, I hope I like it. Maybe not. I am not sure I can center my mind enough to relax. I am getting pumped for everything and hearing from all of you. I am proud of the progress you all are making. Even though sometimes we feel like we are standing still, remember people are still watching you, they see your struggles, and they wait to see how you will handle it. Remember to always put your best effort forward. I know that sometimes we are not were we want to be in our lives but we are where the Lord wants us to be.

Stay strong as I know we are hitting a flat spot in our weight loss. Push that much harder.

Heres to another day, another pound and another step to the new you.

Hello Tuesday Morning,

Goodmorning dear friends,

Another day is upon us and boy oh boy things are looking up. I stepped on the scale this morning to find it sitting at 262 again so happy about that. I am pretty sure that I strained something in my knee yesterday playing ultimate frezbee. But it was loads of fun.

Im excited to say that I got a great new job. I will have to tell you more bout it later.

I was looking over my goals to discover I am only 69 pounds from my target weight. YAY!! I thougth I was about a hundred pounds away but man oh man I need to learn how to do math. I love reading all your comments I love that you are going on this journey with me.

So heres to another Day, another Pound and another step to the new you.

Its Monday!

Goodmorning, Oh boy another weekend has gone by. I am hoping that after a TERRIBLE week this one will be better. I am sad that it is my last week at the youth center, I will miss the kids but school is starting and it is time for them to head back.

I didnt work out this weekend as I usually dont and I am starting to wonder if that is making things worse. I feel like by monday I have to push myself so hard that it almost hurts. I wonder if I should work out on saturday but not sunday. Any Ideas? Starting weight this week my scale said I gained 4 lbs over the weekend. I think it is just water weight or at leaste I hope it is just water weight. So I start the week back at 266.. frusterating. OH WELL! Use it to make me stronger and faster.

I thougth by now I would have some sort of craving but I dont. I am suprised as I always have before. I do dream of watermellon. :) I know its silly but it just sounds so good.

I am going to start a multi vitamin this week to see if it helps anywith my energy. Usually working out gives me all kinds of energy but for some reason I am more exausted. My DR seems to think it is just because of all the medications and all the sickness I have had so i am going on a all natural multi viti.. Hope it helps.

I want to hear how the rest of you are doing? Is it hard to meet your weekly goals? Are you haveing cravings? What is the best and worst part of it all?

I am proud of every baby step that you and I take along this journey.

SO heres to another day, another pound and another step to the new you .

OH Crappy DAY!

So Last night, I wanted to go out and enjoy dancing, I got ready, showered, dressed, fixed my hair. I felt very pretty, went to the club, got a table, Had a cherry coke, and waited for my friends to arrive.

I enjoyed a few waltzes and a couple of line dances. Untill this guy came up to me and told me just exactly how fat and unattractive I was. Not only did he continue to cut me down but then his buddy thinkng it was funny jummped on the wagon. Nothing I said would make them stop and I deided to leave.

I came home and spent the night crying. But this morning. is different.

How dare they judge me, how dare they make fun of me. Who are they to cast the first stone. I am sure they are not perfect by any standards. It is not my place to judge nor to understand the thoughts and feelings of other.

One told me that I needed to get off my A@@ more and stop eating twinkies.

They judged me before they knew the story. Before they know what I had gone through. THey judge me before they understand the work I put into everything each and every day.

I ask my self why am I doing this challenge? What makes it so special?

I do it for me, the person I know that is inside waiting to come out. I do it for all the over weight women in the world who wish they had the courage to do something about it. I do it for every fat kid that thinks they cant be thin. I do it for myself, not for you, or some guy that makes fun of me.

Remember as you do your own personal challenge that you are a beautiful person. you bring that beauty into a room when you walk in. Its not about your hair or makeup. Its not about how thin you are. Its about loving and being comfortable in your skin. Its about accepting YOU, before others can do the same. Each and everyone of us is beautiful, we all have something special to offer. I want each of us to look inside this next week and show the world just exactly how special we are.
