A Great Day!!!!!!!!!!!!

Today was the best Day I had my weekly weigh in and I am down to 212.4.... I spoke with my consultant and we discuss my progress and she is only keeping track the the weeks that I am in.  I have missed 3 weeks since I joined in the end of Apirl so going with what she kept track of I have lost 22.20 pounds in 14 weeks. Yippee!!!!!! And to top it off I tried on a couple of things tonight that I have not worn in 2 years and they fit.. YIPPEE

I also had a great day with my younger cousin she is starting her senior year in high school next week so we took a day to just hang out and get pedicures. Neither one of us had ever had one before but I can be sure that it was not my last one it was amazing the message chair and the pedicure oh I could have stayed all day..

I hope that whoever is reading this has a terrific weekend!!

Peace

Never Heard Back!

Well it will a week tomorrow since the open casting for the Biggest Loser and I never heard back from them so I guess I didn't have what they where looking for. 

Update on my August goals I am drink my water at least 8 glasses a day and I hae not had coffee in 2 days and only 1 can a diet soda a day for a week.  I am getting there, slowly but I am getting there.

I did something that I can't Believe!

Ok I went to the Biggest Loser casting call today!  I can't believe i did it.  I was in the car and just said what the hell what do I have to lose.  

Well I gain a sunburn and a great experience,  I don't know if they will call me back or not but I had a good time.  I should know in a couple of days if they call me back in.  I hope that they call I think that the opportunity would be just the greatest experience.

 

Wish me luck!

OH by the way not so much today (since I was standing in a line for most of it)  but I have actually been drinking 12 glasses of water everyday. yippee for me!   I also had my weigh in today not to much to report today the scale said 214.8. I need to start moving my behind.

Vitamins

They worked!  I have been taken the iron and a B complex and I am feeling great!!!!!!  Much more energy!! This means that I need to try and do the President's physical fitness test.  Once I do I will post it.  I know that it will be bad I am not physically fit.  I will let you all know soon!!

I found the goal chart for the President's Physical Fitness Test I am going to use 17 year old girl as my target since this is for kids and not adults. I am going to post my first try results and my results every time I do it until I can do it.

The goal chart it is in my photos but you can't read it so here is the goals for a 17 year old girl. (I am 35 but I can dream that I am 17 again)
Partial Curl-Ups - 30
One Mile Run - 10 minutes
V-sit reach - 3 inches
Right Angle Push ups 7

Peace!

The good and the bad!!

The good is that the vitamins are working I have taken them for 3 days and I am very happy that I am not falling asleep at the drop of a dime.  Honestly this past week was bad at work I just wanted to sleep in fact I caught myself 10 time the other day where I think that I was really sleeping.  I can't keep ignoring my anemia the iron helps so I have keep taking it.

OK the bad is that I had 2 coffees and 3 diet pepsi.  Tomorrow is another day I will try tomorrow after all the goal is that stop this month.  I am going stop just not today.

I hope everyone has a great weekend!!

August September Goals!

Ok I read this on another person's blog and said that is was such a great idea that I to need to do this.  I need to set some goals so here they are.

August - I would like to stop drinking coffee.  I am down to one non-fat 4 shot latte a day,  I used to drink about a pot and a half a day. I would also like to quit drinking Diet Pepsi.  I need to drink water I am sorry to say that I do not drink water. So that is my goal for August I will keep everyone posted on how well that goes.  I will start tomorrow since I am drinking the latte now and have already had 1 diet pepsi.

September-  My goal for September is to be below 200 pounds I think that that is obtainable.

I am going to leave it at these 2 months for now I need to work on them and I will add on later.

Peace!

Shaq's big challenge!

Shaq's big challenge!  Has anyone watched this show?  I watched it and to be honest with you those kids are an inspiration, everyone of them. 

I was amazed at what I saw and learned.  When did the PE class disappear.  I know I hated having to do the President fitness test back in grade school.  I was a small child back then but I didn't have the upper body strength and couldn't do a chin up or pull up and don't even ask me to have done a push up or run.   I may have been tiny but not physically fit.  That is probably I why I am overweight now.  I never want to exercise I was to busy playing.

But those kids really shed light on a huge national issue that needs to be addressed our country needs help.  I am really amazed at what has happened in the past 20 some years.  I am 35 and it amazes me how much things have changed with the way kids are growing. 

I have a goal for myself I want to be able to do the President Physical Fitness Test.  I need feel better first so I am going to give myself a week (take my iron and other vitamins) and then I am going to try and do it so that I have my own bench mark to beat.  I will be honest with everyone and post the results. 

Peace!

I am new!

Hello to you reading this!   I am new here and to be honest I have never kept a journal let alone a blog .

For the last couple of weeks probably more like the last month I have been sliding backwards on the journey to becoming a smaller person.  Nothing to bad, but I have been feeling down always tired getting out of breath quite a bit and a few other things that just makes a person sit and do nothing.  Well I sort forgot that I have a tendency to have low iron.  I have had iron deficiency anemia since I was very young and sometimes it shows its ugly face.  So it flared back up and I am heading to the store right after work to pick up Iron and vitamin C.  I should start to feel more like myself in about a week if not I am going to have to go see the Doc..  I just figure the fatigue was from the heat I work in an office without air conditioning guess not. 

Talk to you soon!
