I have changed my weigh in days to Thursdays, which just makes sense because I have to be in Nashville any way on that day of the week.  I also missed some of the members that I have known for a long time and the leader, Rita.  I hopped on the scale, I had a [...]

This season of The Biggest Loser is much more educational for viewers that are trying to figure out the correct way to lose weight.  I was grossed out that Jillian had the soles of her shoes on the kitchen counter top as she and Bob held their Q & A and lecture session on calories and [...]

Having supportive and wonderful friends really makes going out even more enjoyable for someone that is on a weight loss plan.  I managed to go out to a very nice dinner and to keep in mind that I was there to celebrate my wonderful friend’s birthday and hang out with some of the most gorgeous [...]

Woohoo!  I have lost another pound, so I have lost 5.6 pounds in the past three weeks.  It was great going to the Thursday morning meeting and seeing some of the regular members and my leader, Rita, who I just adore.  She was so great to me and helped me so much during my marathon [...]

I have decisions that need to be made quickly pertaining to if and which half or full marathons I will run.  My heart was really in it when I planned to run the Country Music Marathon and as disappointed as I was when I injured my leg and had to back down and run the half [...]

Go find something that weighs fifty pounds and pick it up.  It can be your child, a television, a chair, a pile of rocks, whatever you have, and feel how heavy that is.  Well, that is how much weight I carried around every single day on my knees and ankles.    I feel like my knees [...]

Stepped on the scale to discover that I lost three pounds this week.   To be honest, I would have been happy losing anything, but three is a great number.  I was even more excited that there is no longer  a two as the first number of my weight.  I hate and despise that two and [...]

Alright, I’m at day three back on WW and I am pleased to report that it is going very well.  I spent some time this afternoon looking through recipe books in search of finding something different.  I am really burned out on making and eating a lot of the same things.  I know that I [...]
