Awsome Week!

The most amazing event of the week is not about food or how well my workouts were,  It was all about the new little bundle of "pink" that joined our family. My Baby had a baby, early Tuesday morning. It was so incredible to be there with her at that special moment---Unforgettable!
That is exactly why this challenge is such an incredible opportunity. When this baby is 25,  I'll be 75. I actually used to think and came to accept the 'fact', that I probably wouldn't ever get that 'old' and I was actually OK with that! Well not now.  It's a whole new ball game!
I just turned 50 yesterday, and I feel better than I have in 8 years. So here's to the 50's!  GAME ON!!!

Bring it on week 5!

Great work outs with Daniell! I'm so glad she's there to push me, and always makes me feel good about the progress I feel I've made. When I go to the Rec. Center on my own I find myself pushing harder, as if she is there saying,  'you can do it' just 30 more seconds! And I get it done! It's a great feeling! I'm looking forward to this week and the opportunity to amaze myself!  It's going to be a good one! 

 I'm just going to stay out of the kitchen! LOL!

The Hardest Thing I've Ever Done? I Think Not...

As I was driving home from one of my work outs, I thought, This is the hardest thing I've ever done.  Then I went through the common things that are hard in life, like giving birth to my first born with no medication. (Why I felt I had to do that or what it would prove, I may never know.) Or going on the "Subway Hike," the summer I was turning 40,  (9 hours and 15 min. of *^%&*%^! and incredible beauty!). But as I've given it a little more thought, harder still may be, dying too young of something SOOOO stupid, like being over weight and all that comes with that baggage... A little sweat (well maybe allot!).. and some better choices, doesn't seam so bad.

Ruff Start with First Week on Vacation!

I worked out with Tracy and Daniell on Monday!  It was great! I was so worried about going, but I felt very comfortable and encouraged by them both. I'm looking forward to tomorrow for another great session. It's been a tough week to keep up with the food log and dealing with alot of  food on the go, but small changes, I think, like cutting back on serving size, planning ahead, and having good things on hand will be a great thing for me to improve on, and drinking lots of water!  Looking forward to learning more information on nutrition in the morning! Need  alot of help with food choices!
