TOM's here : (

Well, I feel much better. However just got my period! What a great way to start the week.

This week, I'll be taking off  Wed. to take my mom to her chest specialist and I have a car appt. ( recall) for 1:00pm. This will kind of help because I get a break in between.

I won't be going to the gym tomorrow because my chest is congested. SO this will be my 8th day with no exercise. Oh well! might as well rest up and catch up on missed shows

Anyways, hope everyone had a great weekend. Will see you all tomorrow: D

weigh in : D.........lost 3.5lbs!

So I'm still sick but I had to weigh myself to keep up with the WW weigh in. I lost 3.5lbs, this is both good and bad for me. I know I lost the weight because I wasn't feeling well, but good too because I feel a lot better that the number is down.......what we do to make our selves feel much better.

Anyways, I'm feeling much better than yesterday the anti-biotics have kicked in. My body still feels very sore and my thoart is still a bit hoarse..

I'm off to see how everyone else is doing! Have a terrifice weekend: D

still sick: (

Hi everyone

thanks for your well wishes. I didn't go into work yesterday or today because I've got strep throat! I've never had it before and let me tell you it reallllly sucks I can hardly swallow anything and my throat glands are so swollen. I feel like s**t and can't wait to get over this!

I'm sorry, I can hardly type but hopefully will see you girls tomorrow.

I'm going to bed now! good night

Sick as a dog: (

Sorry guys but need to keep this short, I'm so sick! sore throat, cough, body aching and running nose. You name it, I've got it.

I had to cancel my training today and feel really bad.  Anyways, hopefully tomorrow is much better!

take care and see you tomorrow

100 day exercise!!

Hello everyone

Like the title of my post today? well you can thank my buddy " Pam I Am" She actually came up with this idea and I started it just yesterday. So the plan is that for the next 100 days, for every day that you exercise you put a $1 away into a piggy bank. Then when the 100 days are up, you get to spend it on anything you want! Your TREAT!!!!

So guess what I want? I want to buy a pair of designer jeans. My trainer said that she will go with me to shop for them. I told that I want my butt to look good in them ...........BUT, she said that I'm going to need more than 100$ dollars????? hmmmm! Anyways, I think its a fabulous idea and am so excited!!!!! 

So heres a question for anyone whos reading? what would you get? it doesn't have to cost $100 but if there is something that will inspire you, what would it be?

Anyways, got to go and get my lunch ready for tomorrow but will see you all tomorrow....BTW, I'm so sad that the brown team got booted out

See you tomorrow!

Happy New year everyone: D

Hello everyone

I know I'm a little late but I wish everyone a very happy new year!!!

2007 was a very memorable  year with a lot of ups and downs but I have to say it was overall a very rewarding year for me. This year will always be ingrained in my memory due to the life style changes that occured.

Things that happed:

1. started my weight loss/ life style change in Jan.2007 and lost a total of 42lbs ( but gained back 12lbs)
2. finally fit into a size 12/14
3. lost a lot of inches!
4. joined a gym and got a personal trainer ( who by the way rocks!)
5. went to Italy: D
6. ....and there are other smaller things that occured but the 5 points listed are the biggest changes I've made

Overall a great year! here is to 2008 for more new changes to occure.

I started my WW on Dec.29.07 and yesterday way my weight in and I've lost 1.5lbs: D WooooHooo!!

I can't tell you how exciting this is, just a year ago I  weighed in more than 200lbs and I've managed to gain only 12lbs since the journey started. I'm very confident that this year will be filled with a lot of ups and downs ( as usual) but I'm ready and armed to deal with them. So bring it on 2008!!! Im ready for you,...... the question is are you ready for me

I hope you all had a great weekend, I will see you all tomorrow......Now if you all will excuse me, I have to go search for all my EP buddies who I've lost touch with: D

caio!

M.

I'm ready to start back :D

So here I am after a small break: D

I actually started yesterday and wasn't to happy to see that scale. (drum roll pls) I weight in at 189lbs!!!! What a big suprise after everything that I've been eating.....No seriously it could have been worse but I'm back into the game. A friend of mine and I were thinking of starting in the new years, especially with everything that happens around Christmas.....BUT, I decided that there is no time as the right time, you either do it or you don't. I chose to do it!

Starting yesterday , I wilI go twice to see my trainer and 3 times on my own. I know its going to be a difficult challenge ahead of me but I'm ready to tackle it. Like everything else that life decides to throw out at us, I'm going to get up and dust myself and keeping pushing myself. I'm ready with my support team. (Whoooohooo!!)

Anyhow, I will need to get back into the habit of checking on you guys and get motivated by you guys! (and vice versa: D )

I'm still getting used to the journal and point tracking ( I'm on WW)

Well everyone see you all tomorrow and don't forget to watch the Biggest Loser tonight!

Have a good one: D
