Missed WI last week...had my gall bladder out on Feb 21, so I am still trying to get back into the swing of things. Weighed in today and lost .4, for a total of 109.4 lbs.

Here's a couple of pix from Alia graduation...not the best, since we didn't have good picture taking seats.



This is a pic of the dress I wanted, but it went on sale the Thursday I had surgery...40% off...and I couldn't go get it. I forgot about it, but Darrin didn't. He called, bought it over the phone, had a friend pick it up and bring it to my son at church Sunday. Ryan brought it home to me that night and I was quite surprised! Right size and all! My husband is the sweetest!

WI Friday

Okay, after messing around all month, I finally got below the 140 mark! FINALLY! I'm now 139, with only 4 lbs to goal! Below are pix from one year ago (Jan 19, 07) and from this past Sunday (Jan 20, 08). Big difference! 108.4 lbs difference! JC is an awesome program and I recommend it to anyone wanting to lose any weight at all!

Another 1.2 lbs gone! Just 5.4 lbs to goal! I am just 2 weeks away from my one year anniversary on JC. I am hoping to reach my goal by that time...its unlikely, since I only seem to be losing 4.8 lbs a month. If I really go full force JC, w/o cheats, I can do it though, I'm sure.

Well, normally this would be the week that I'd gain...TOM...but this week, I lost a whole .2 lbs! :) lol At least it wasn't a gain! Can't complain about that! Next week should be much better....if I stay or the program and get all my water in.

WI Friday

Good morning! I did not get much sleep last night...something wierd is happening with me. I wake up about 5 AM and can't get back to sleep. It's 7:50 AM here and I've already done a 45 minute workout and a load of laundry...and its SATURDAY! The one day I CAN sleep in!

I did the new Brisk Walk DVD that I picked up at Target. It's got 5 different workouts. First day is a 20 min 1 mile walk, but pretty intense, since they use weighted balls. Second day is a 30 min 2 mile walk, with weighted balls. Definitely a better work out than the JC 2 mile walk DVD. I like that it rotates the workout...I have the other one so memorized, down to the annoying chatter. She doesn't do as much of that on this one.

I've recovered from my .8 gain from last week. I lost 2.4 this week. I've almost lost 100 lbs!!! I think I deserve a BIG reward! Like a sparkling piece of jewelry! With Christmas, though, that's unlikely. My husband's business is tight these days too, so I'll stick with clothes that fit! I was able to go to the basement and pull out a bunch of winter clothes from the last time I was a size 6...1997...so I do have a few things I can wear. It's 10 years later, some of them are back in style!

WI Friday

...a little late!

Up .8 to 152. My TOM started yesterday (the real thing, finally), so I'm hoping to lose this week. Sticking to the program pretty faithfully so far. Doing the Brisk Walk DVD all week...Sat, Mon and today, so far. It's just not a really good work out for me anymore. Not challenging enough. I need my bike, but its soooo cold!

WI Friday



I am now at my healthy weight!!!!! That was my current goal and I'm there! My scale say 152.5 (w/o clothes), JC scale is 153.2 (w/clothes, of course)...my healthy weight is 153.


My journey actually started because I was unhealthy...my dad had quad. by-pass surgery in May of '06...then I started having panic attacks because of fear of dying and leaving my kids w/o a mother...I knew I had to do something positive for myself. I finally parked and walked into JC w/o an appt, after driving by almost everyday, wanting to get enough nerve to try it.


I still have 18.2 lbs to go, but wanted to brag that I am now at a healthy weight, according to the weight tracker.


YEA me!!!!!!!!
