NO PAIN NO GAIN

Great news! Gerry and I along with Kell Bell joined the gym! Gerry decided to join the band wagon and start going to the gym so we all joined! I went this morning with a friend and we walked on the treadmill. I wanted to do some ab work because I have been losing in my upper and lower body but still seem to have alot of squish in the middle. So my friend Angela:-) showed me some of the ab exercises she knew . I learned alot but I wanted to cry because I could not do a freaking sit up! So I guess I have work to do! I felt like I have been working so hard in the pool and doing pretty good..well today was a bit of a slap for me! Sooooo much more I should be doing! No pain no gain has much truth! There was a girl in the gym that was working with a personal trainer and boy she was kicking ass and sweating! A bit of a wake up call for this chick to step it up! Kyle is coming home today and I am sending him to target to get me an exercise ball so i can start shaping up the gut! Trying hard to turn the frustration into something positive! Boy this is lots of work! NO PAIN NO GAIN RIGHT?

Hope everyone is having a great day...looking forward to some nice weather soon!

10 weeks is a long time!

10 week check up! Another 7 pounds gone! That is a total of 48 pounds...just 2 little pounds away from 50 and 22 pounds away from my initial goal! Pretty much same old same same old for everything ....hitting the pool every weekend and still staying strong to the no cheat rule! Some days My evil witch talks loudly in my head but the good witch keeps her senses and gives the evil witch the big fat middle finger! LOL

I actually had a first the other day. I was walking along and said hello to an old neighbor that I hadn't seen in awhile. She smiled and said hello and didn't recognize me at first! Heheh! That seems funny to me because I don't see that much difference in looks but it was a feel good moment anyway!

Well that is it for now! Can old man winter just please disappear? Bring on spring please!

Thank you all! XOXOXO. ~. K

Happy happy!

if you always do what you've always done; you will always get what you always got. Change is good!

before and 1/2 way there photo ! yowsa!

Week 8 update

Well friends..we are still chugging along on this journey! Not always easy and sometimes just a pain in the ass! It is sooo easy to be unhealthy! This being healthy is hard work and sacrifice. I wouldn't trade it for the world compared to the great feeling of being healthy! I am feeling better all the time!

I just came from my doctor appointment with my awesome doctor (Dr.Partello) :-) this was my 8 week appointment. Since my last appointment 2 weeks ago, I lost another 7.5 pounds. I was hoping for at least 6 pounds and was extremely happy with 7.5! This brings the total weight loss to 41.5 pounds! Just think what might weigh 41 pounds and what 41 pounds of fat would look like! GROSS!

Short and sweet this time! Eat a cheeseburger for me because I would kill for one right now..that and a beer! So you can have one of those for me too! :-)

Thank you sooooo much for reading and all your support and kind words..it is truly keeping me motivated! I am blessed to have each and everyone of you!

XOXO. ~. K

Thoughts

Every choice you make has an end result. Every beginning has an end, every action has a reaction...Life comes with consequences.
