Results/ Half Way done!

Congrats Ladies!! We are officially half way done and we are on our way to the 5th weigh in. I promise the next few weeks will fly by!  If you are down on the scale you can totally come back, don't give up!  In fact a girl in my most recent contest I did with my friends from Erie came out of nowhere the last three weeks and beat me out for first place!  But props to her because she worked hard to do it, and I slacked off because I thought I had it!!:)  I am really amazed at how amazing you all are and the dedication you are putting into this contest even if it means sacrificing a brownie after a  long day with the kids:)  Trust me, that takes determination and dedication!!  Let me know if I can help out in any way or you would like a work out buddy.  Great job ladies!

Alright, sorry I am a couple days late!  We are currently in Erie and I have been out of control visiting old friends, but also out of control with my eating.  Today I did a Tae Bo Video in my room which was awesome because Lorenzo wanted to sit on my stomach the entire time while attempting at crunches as well as walk in between my legs when I was doing some leg press thing a mob move.  It was crazy.  BUT I allowed myself some chocolate at this amazing chocolate store here in Erie and I have been eating my typical food but twice as much as normal.  What have I learned?  1, to never leave Kentucky again. 2, I am an emotional and stress eater, BUT also a "fun" eater.  I tend to stuff my face with  food mindlessly while socializing.  WHY!??  Shouldn't it be the other way and I become self conscious??  Anywho, hope you all had a great week and I cant wait to see where we are all at come this Monday when we reach the 1/2 way mark.  Keep up the great work! 

Hey Ladies another week come and gone!!!  You guys are amazing and I know that this past week was rough but honestly everyone did such a great job staying strong. 

Don't be hard on yourself if you are not where you want to be.  As you can see we are all very close within a percentage point or two so its still anybodies game!!  WE are still early in the competition so don't give up!

Brother Burnett was giving a talk this past Sunday where he talked about how the Lord gives us weaknesses so that we are humble and can turn them into strengths.  It struck such a chord with me because eating lots of food is my weakness.  It has been ever since I was a little girl!!!  I truly believe for myself that this is a hard battle for myself but I pray that one day it becomes a strength.  Its the best feeling when I make a good choice. Today I almost didn't!! In fact at the grocery store I had a package of Birthday Cake flavored Oreos in my hand and it took everything in me to put them back.  Your not alone.  Its everybody's strength that truly helps me to stay motivated so thanks for all your hard work you guys are doing! You all are one amazing bunch of women!

ALSO, Who is in for a girls night out this Thursday!??  We were thinking sushi?  Any takers?  Let me know if you can make it and if that is what you would like to do or any other suggestions?  Ciao!

I am hungry.

July 4th may take me out.....

As I think about tomorrow and the pancake breakfast at church followed by gatherings where everyone will be bringing their A game in regards to food, I fear for my weight loss this week.  I seriously need prayers and plan on being a the gym tomorrow to at least help out as I try not to devour every delicious thing that comes into view.

Week 2, 1st Official Results!!!

Ladies, great job!  Seriously everyone is kicking butt and I am excited to be in this "round" with everyone single one of you.  Keep up the great work and remember to take it one day at a time.  Don't get frustrated with yourself if you have a bad day or week, just focus on moving forward.
