Almost a year without posting.... hmmmmm..... Must mean I really didn't have anything to say. Wrong.... had lots to say, but forgot how I use to vent. I have been stifled by thinking people who know me might be offended by some things I write.......sucks for them, because I've got to let go of some of this crap I carry around.....

Okay, so last week I posted a big loss of 6lbs. In this stage of my journey, I'm always leery when I see a big number. Excited, but leery nevertheless. Well this week's weigh in bought a slight adjustment of +2.5lbs. I'm not happy, but I'm not sad either. I know I need to do some further tweaking of my food choices and start eliminating processed sugars and replacing them with choices of

It's been a while, but I have been recharged in my efforts by Twin's progression and the success of some of my Zumba students. At weigh-in I found myself down 6lbs! Hooooraaaayyyyy for heading in the right direction. I'm so happy that my body is responding to all this Zumba that I'm doing! LOL I'm dancing my fat into submission!Seriously though, I am trying to find the balance between

Minus 11.5Yup, I said it.... I lost 11.5 pounds at weigh in this week. This is after gaining for 2 weeks straight. So I lost what I gained, plus a little more. So how did I post this big loss. Who knows? I'm serious. Being honest, I didn't journal like I should, but I did cut the crappy snacks that I was shoving in my face and focused on "filling" foods. So this week I'm doing more

Yup, I said it. Tracking is making me look at my poor food choices head on. And I must say that although they are healthier than what I use to eat prior to weight watchers, I still have some work to do. My quantities are all out of whack. Some days I'm going over my points. Other days I'm not eating enough. I have to force myself to find the balance because neither are good for trying to push

Burnt out..... Work has me feeling this way..... I have a few posts that I didn't publish last week, but blogging everyday has been the least of the things on my mind. Other than work, I'm doing well. I've subbed Zumba at the main YMCA 3 times in the last week. It has been so much fun! I'm finding joy in being able to get others moving and doing something healthy for themselves. I really

So after a terrible Monday, Tuesday was a better day. I slept until 6:45am when the work phone rang. Yes, I still wanted to throw it across the room, but the fact that I actually got some sleep and was getting ready to hit snooze on alarm clock make it better. I subbed Zumba at the main YMCA in my town tonight and boy was I nervous! It's usually a pretty big class. The numbers didn't make

Oh Monday was not on my side this week at all.... but when is it ever?! It started out at 1:45am Sunday night/Monday morning....Yup....The work phone almost got hurled across my bedroom at 1:45am when it awoke me from my slumber.That call presented a problem that took me until 3:15am to fix. At that point my plans to get up and run before lunch were nixed. Serious. Can't I just sleep one

Seriously..... It's Sunday night and I'm not ready for the weekend to be over. I just want one day that I can just sit around and do nothing.... just veg out....Update on my fitness goals.... I have yet to run/jog/walk even a mile of my 35. I'm determined to do it though. I must. I have to get back on the swimming, biking, and especially running horse. April will be here before I know it!

Today's agenda included the AFAA Group Fitness Certification. I have been trying to study for this, but my attention span of a small child with ADD during the week. After working all day and then hitting the gym, I just didn't have a great deal of focus.The workshop was great. Very informative and pretty fun. It was a lot of information but understandable. There were only 6 people there, so

13 Signs you should look for a new job.....1. You greet your coworkers each morning by flipping them the bird instead of saying good morning.2. During your yearly review, your manager points out that your status has been changed from permanent to "pending".3. You walk in to your cube to see that your things have been packed nice and neatly in a box.4. You refer to your manager/supervisor as

Yes, I'm obsessed with Zumba! LOL I'm heading to sub for one of my friend's classes at the local YMCA. It's going to be awesome! Anytime I can dance myself silly, I'm up for it. That's why being a Zumba instructor is perfect! Until Later, Love ya,Lynn

I really need to study. I have the AFAA Group Fitness Certification workshop coming up this weekend and I have not had the time to put what I wanted to into studying for it. I think I'm covered on the practical skills portion, but the written could be a big 'ole mess on my part. One positive that has come out of my minimal study sessions is that I realize that I like to study. Seriously, I'm

I am "studying" for the AFAA group fitness certification exam. It's schedule for this Saturday and I am lacking the concentration to study. And with that said, I'm going to hop off of here and take the last 30 minutes of my lunch and stick my head in the book! LOL Sorry for the short, fluff of an entry, but if I'm going to write every day for a month, it will happen!

As you know, the last 2 years have been a struggle for me weightloss wise. Between the mental battles and my physical injury, I have just not been able to fully regain my focus.

So this morning was a struggle as far as getting up to go to the gym. I haven't been sleeping well lately and just wanted to lay there instead of going to the gym. So I saw had logged on to my facebook account and saw that Coco was headed to swim. So I said to myself, ok, step up and swim. So I head to the gym and make my way to the pool. There was no one there! Yippie skippie! I'll get

I arrived a little after my meeting had started this morning. As soon as I walked in, my meeting leader stopped and asked if I finished the tri. It was great to earn a non-scale victory star for finishing the triathlon!This just fell right in line with this weeks meeting topic of moving more. They tossed around a lot of great ideas. Nintendo Wii is always a crowd favorite. I purchased the Wii

Now that I have completed Danskin Austin, I'm now ready to take on some more challenges. I have several things that I want to accomplish that will require me to be completely selfish with my time, but hey, you just have to be sometimes.I want to get better at swimming. I didn't take my lesson Wednesday, but will be taking from here on out. My kick has got to get stronger for sure. In the last

On Friday morning, I awoke in a panic. I overslept and only had a about an hour to get to the airport and get on my flight to head to Austin. Man, is this a sign? Should I not go? Once I got to the airport, the line for check-in was hella long and I was afraid that I wouldn't make it. Well, the first Delta rep was less than helpful and told me I couldn't check my bag. The rep at the

Things have been kinda busy lately. So I need to catch up with myself and see what I've done!1. I taught my first full Zumba class on May 21, 2009! I was so freaking nervous. I always tend to think the worse but mostly things turn out for the better. I talked a lot just to get the participants comfortable with me. I think that there was one maybe two that I will be surprised to see back,

....however, with all the follies that have encompassed my first real bike ride, Coco is positive that it's going to end with me being the first female Tour de France winner! LOL Not even close. The days to ride outside have been few and far between. So I through my bike in the back of the car on Sunday and headed to the parking lot at my alma mater. There is lots of grass on the

Ok, so I've been slacking on the blogging. Sometimes there are so many things running through my head that I just can't stop to get it all out. Well, consider this a brain dump because I want to get it all out.Zumba! Yes, I've drank the Zumba Kool-aid and I am hooked. I have been taking for about a year and have had an awesome time. This is where I get to release my dancing energy. I don't

So last week I made my way to Charleston Bicycle Center and ordered a Trek 1.2 WSD road bike. I chose that shop because it's small and seems friendly. And boy is it ever! I had visited the bicycle center last year before I injured my knee and talked to the owner Bill. Bill ran down the basically the history of the bike for me. He showed me the difference between road and mountain bikes.

Okay, so today's schedule included grocery shopping at Sam's Club and Wal-Mart. Of course at Sam's a I played my normal game of "dodge 'em" avoiding the sample tables of french toast sticks and sausage patties. Mozzarella bites and fat stuffed big skins with real butter dipping sauce... you know, the food that "normal" people eat. I made it through the gauntlet, picking up skinless chicken

Just wanted to catch up with everyone and post where my continued efforts towards my goals are landing me these days. Diva C and I just finished up our St. Patty's Day Challenge that ran from February 14th to March 14th. I fared pretty well losing consistently for 3 weeks. That is great for me as my pattern for the last year has been to lose big then gain even bigger. So my weigh ins looked

Weight lifting in any gym can be a bit intimidating with all the body builders and fitness competitors that are usually in there training. Yesterday as I sat down claimed an incline bench to do my arm curls, I noticed a rather fit woman on the bench directly beside of me. She sort of glanced at me and kept to her routine. In the middle of one of my sets, I felt someone staring at me. It was

I'm ready to begin the new phase of the holiday challenge. The last phase was not as successful as I had hoped. I lost 6.5lbs and added $32.50 to my pocket. My eating has not been as clean as it should. I've been resorting to emotional eating lately and just haven't put the effort into making sure I'm consuming the correct portions. We are officially 15 weeks away from the Danskin SheROX

I posted a 1/2 pound loss today! Shweet! A maintain last week and then a step in the right direction this week is great. Those 1/2s will eventually add up and I will be back to new numbers again in no time. Stay positive, anything can happen,Lynn

Drum roll please......I MAINTAINED this week! I'll take it. Wasn't what I was looking for since I total kicked butt tracking, exercising, and making great food choices. I'm not upset, because the scale can always go the wrong way. Now that would have really upset me.I'm proud of myself for picking more filling foods. My snacks were mainly fruits and my water intake was good.This weeks plan

We are not assigned parking spaces, but for the past 4 years that I've been with the company, I have parked in the same space... so have others... and since I can be territorial...

So I had signed up for this winter running series at the beginning of December. I missed the first 5K of the series and the day for this one, an 8K snuck right up on me. Along with the run, there was an option for a 4K walk. I took the walk as I was not prepared to run the 8K today. So arrived way to early for the race. I thought it was at noon, but the walk began at 1. The run was to start at 2.

I could spend all day telling you all my excuses for not blogging and what's been going on with me. However, I don't have the time nor the desire to wear out my fingers doing such. :-) So here is my brief overview.In the last 3 years I have slowly lost focus of my goals. I, again, started putting other people's needs before my own and not taking the time to do things for myself. I also

Most of you know that I was training for a triathlon before I injured my knee. Well, I decided that my knee wasn't strong enough after I was released from the doctor's care to participate. I was truly upset that I had to make that decision, but I know it was in my best interest. So since Coco and I are the culprits of suggesting the entire thing, I still wanted to go and support the girls in

Hey all! I just wanted to enter a quick update from last week. I know I'm like 3 days late, but I'm sure you weren't standing on pins and needles. :-) I weighed in on Wednesday morning and lost 3lbs! Yippie! That was what I had gained the week before, so I'm very pleased. My goals for July 9th to July 15th. I did fairly well with the week one goals, but I need to work harder on journaling.

What up?Yesterday I weighed in and was up about 3lbs. Now before you gasp in the horror of it all, I am very prone to water retention and barely drank any water over the weekend and into the beginning of the week. So I fully expected a gain. No biggie. I'll just work harder this week to stay on plan. The my Back to the Basics Challenge that started yesterday is going to keep me mentally on

So I had to laugh to myself today as I went to the gym. I totally was not feeling the gym today. I was tired from work and just wanted to go home. However, just to be able to bring you some things that I find funny. The first thing that I found funny was getting to the counter and telling them I didn't have my pass to get in. The girl looks at me, asks my name, and says "ok, go on in." She

I went to weigh in Wednesday, and found that I was down a pound! Yeah! And although I'm not nearly at my lowest weight, I was still very happy. I've been going through a lot of personal things in the last year and a half and it resulted in me forgetting why I was losing weight. I started this journey for me and when I got down to the 200+ pounds off mark, I freaked out and lost site of my goals

The knee strengthening saga continues. Physical therapy is going pretty well, but I have experiencing a bit of pain this week. Sunday I was on my feet for about 8 hours straight. I need to do some shopping and it took a very long time. By the time I finished, the soles of my feet ached. It's a true sign of how much I haven't been on my feet in the last several weeks.

I don't know if I've ever mentioned this before, but I'm not a fan of veggies. I love fruit, but the only things green I eat are celery and bell peppers. And even at that, I don't eat the latter very often. I won't run down my freakishly short list of veggies that normally enter this body. It would bore you to tears. That's a bit dramatic, but true. At any rate, I am challenging my taste

So today was the big day. The much awaited visit to the orthopedic doctor to determine what is going on with my knee. I got up and get ready. I was running a tad bit late and was worried that I would have to reschedule my appointment. Which, in my neck of the woods, could have meant waiting for another 2 weeks. That would not have made me happy. So I get there and hobble on up to the window. I

Ok... so... I was scaling a pretty steep mountain on my bike, when all of a sudden I spot a man stuck in a drainage pipe. This was no small man. He was around 500 pounds. I jumped off my bike and immediately went in for the rescue. I braced myself by putting each foot on rocks on either side of the drain pipe. I then took his hands and began to pull. With each yank he moved a centimeter

I was less than excited to get to my swim lesson last night. I looked around about 10 minutes before the lesson was supposed to start and noticed my instructor wasn't there. I already had it planned out. I was going to run back in the locker room, throw on my workout gear and head to my normal aerobics class. That thought was smashed to smithereens when she walked in about 5 minutes later.

I have to set mini goals or I lose sight of what's going on. I weigh in on Saturdays, so these goals retroactive to the weekend.

OK, so, I am glad that I pushed myself to sign up for swim lessons. I went to the YMCA, talked to a friend of mine and she agreed I should go ahead and sacrifice my aerobics class on Wednesday nights for swim lessons. The group lesson is only $20 for 7 weeks worth of classes. The private lessons are around $25 per hour per session. So there is a big cost savings with the group lesson.I went

So today my coworker and I decided that we needed to get out of the building for lunch. In retrospect, I should have just stayed in and enjoyed my Lean Cuisine meal and a grapefruit. There are a limited number of "fine dining" establishments around our place of employment. We chose to go to the Chinese restaurant but I vowed to myself to make a good choice. I looked at the menu before we

Happy New Year! I know I'm like 8 days in, but it's taken me a while to figure out what I want to put into my first blog of the year. For once in the last few years, I wasn't trying to make a sprint for the finish line into the next year. Don't get me wrong, 2007 has had some less than favorable outcomes, but I feel that I have gotten better about rolling with the punches. Some of the blows

Konnichi wa,It's been a while, but I'm here. Last week started off great with being on program and getting up and getting my rear into the gym. Then on Wednesday morning my back tightened up to the point that I could barely walk. It wasn't looking good for the home team at all. So I immediately grabbed some ice, took some ibuprofen and called my friend Fromy. I had did my back & bicep workout

What's really good people? I tell you what's really good with me today. I got my lazy booty out of bed and made it for my morning workout. I haven't been feeling well for a few days and actually have been pretty tired. So I had not worked out in 2 days. So to end the trend, I made myself get out of the bed and go do some well needed cardio. For lack of a better phrase to describe the way

It has been a week, let me tell you! My volleyball team started summer practice on Monday and it seems that it has been nonstop ever since. I enlisted the help of a coaching mentor and friend to come and host a private camp for my team. It has worked out tremendously for these girls and myself. They are learning new skills and refining their old ones. I'm picking up pointers from my mentor

The weekend is almost over and I think I'm more tired now that I was on Friday. LOL After work I was supposed to have a small cookout for my v-ball kids. This is the part of coaching that I love. The team bonding sessions. Well, the cookout was rained out and moved to a parent's house. Not everyone was able to show, but it was fun and productive. I didn't make it home until late and went

Happy Friday People!Although I have to come in to work a little while tomorrow, it's good to see the weekend come so quickly. I started the day off right with a 5:45am workout with Fromz. I didn't make it in yesterday because my biceps and legs were still sore from "fatigue" day on Monday night. I'm feeling much better now. I don't feel like I'm walking like a male body builder any more. ;)

Good morning campers!So after my rant yesterday and meeting with my trainer friend this morning, I feel a whole lot better. This stone wall I've hit with the scale is affecting me more than I thought. So going to see Fromz (trainer) was just the kick in the pants I needed. So at 4:45am I rolled over and dragged my but out of bed. I was getting my stuff together to take with me to the gym but

Okay.... So...... Since Saturday, I've been trying to make myself rip out this long meaningful blog that detailed my last year of this my weight loss journey. I was going to write about how I thought I had gotten lazy and comfortable. I was going to use this quote by Thomas Edison "Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up." to convey

I accidentally drove by the bakery this morning and as I approached, there in the window were a host of goodies. I felt this was no accident, so I prayed ...

Let me start this off by saying that I can't stand when people interrupt private conversations. I can't stand it even more when they start offering advice that doesn't make any sense.So last evening, I went to the gym to enjoy a wonderful themed spin class. It was a special class used to fund raise for a local charity fund. The turnout was great and the class rocked. There were door prizes

WW Tip(sort of)I was checking out Cel_Eq blog and she made a very good point and observation about the points system. Check it out. I made this point in one of my WW meetings about 2 weeks ago. We weight watchers get stuck looking at just the dietary fiber, calories, and total fat instead of looking into the big picture. Look at the entire food label. How much sodium is in the food and are we

You know, it's been a struggle the last few months trying to keep the scale at bay and keep my sanity as it pertains to my journey. The scale goes down at the blink of an eye but then shoots right back up at the same speed. It's getting discouraging and down right frustrating. So I've scheduled at doc appointment and hopefully we can get this and my other issues straightened out.At any rate, a

So I get up this morning to get ready for my WW meeting and realize that the weather has once again taken a dip. It was SNOWING... not a little, a lot. Well, it was a lot by my standards. At any rate, I decided to give the weather some time to get better. So I went to a later meeting. I expected to do a little better on the scale, but I have some other issues so the scale will get better later.

I'm around a rather eclectic group of people throughout my day, everyday. They range from nosey coworkers with 80s hair to my fitness instructors at the gym. However, the one that I enjoy the most is my 89 year old basketball buddy Mr. Fee(not his real name).He is awesome to say the least. He is a true fan of the game with plenty of wisdom to spread around. He said something last night that was

The last few months have been pretty good to me.I celebrated my birthday in December by having some nice quiet time.
