LIfe is great!!!

With alot of thigns going on, I still managed to loose two pound this week... but the were the two I put on last week!  Oh well...  At least I break even.  The last 10 pounds have been a challenge to get off.  Especially with the medical problems that have arised.  I can't run now, so I am stuck to walking, of face the pain and run anyways.  so I try to do what I can.  Hopefully its enough.  I go for my 6 month appointment soon, I know its late... really late...  but at least I am going!  I will let you all know how it goes from there!  TTYL

Almost 7 months

Wow, it is hard to believe it has been that long.  As depressing as it is, I have been bouncing back and forth with weight lost.  Last week I gained 5 pounds, but this week I lost all five plus one more.  I finally been active again, so we will see what I lose now.  My cousin just posted that she wanted to have a challenge for the month of August.  This challenge is that we including herself have to lose 10 pounds before the end of the month.  I took it!  Lets see if I can lose this last 10 pounds!

This is hilarious!

A little pick me up after dieting, and exercising, and running, and more exercising!

New weight goal!

So I finally reached a "within good distance" of my goal. That would be 4 pounds to be exact! I am excited, although these last few pounds, ok the last 10 have been very difficult! But then again since my hernia surgery, there is still ALOT I can't do. It hurts too bad. But I am working on it slowly. I will make it happen for sure. I will be glad to be able to run more than a mile again. I get to the mile marker, and then I have to walk, jog, and walk so more. It really sucks! But at least I am doing something!

Speaking of activity, my super sweet hubby got me my own gym equipment. I have a stairclimber, a rower (I don't know the correct name), an Ab machine, and a bicycle. So I am set! I am looking for a few more things, like weights or weight set, something along those lines... but we will see what we can find. I will post pics up soon of my new gym! I am super excited!
