7 mars hanging inWe are still hanging in there. Mom is still very sick so for the past few days she has been unable to eat or exercise. I on the other hand have been doing very well. I am actually looking forward to weighing in on Monday. I have been staying within my points range everyday and I have been exercising 2 hours a day. I even went to 2 birthday parties today and didnt even think about having having anything sweet!!! I was so proud of myself.
I am so loving the fact that we are having warmer weather. It is so motivating.
5 mars what a dayWell mom is sick so of course no exercise or eating for her today. I stayed within my points range and also managed to get in an hour of cardio today. I also found this awesome book yesterday on Pcos which has given me alot of insight as to why I am losing weight so slowly. I have been eating all the wrong foods!!!! apparently pcos patients process certain foods diffrently and I have been all the wrong foods. foods that I thought were healthy but for pcos they weren't. so Im trying some new things the rest of this week and see what happens. I am really excited about finding this book!!!
Hopefully mom will be feeling better tomorrow so that she can get in her walking, I am loving that it is starting to get warmer here so that we can start taking our nightly walks as a family.
I am also excited about this spring and summer season because for the first time in 10 years I will be wearing shorts in public. Who knows I may even get to wear that sexy bikini I have always dreamed of!!! I am so looking forward to warm weather for a change.  4 mars Happy Birthday to momwell today is mom's birthday and we cheated a little bit and had Ice cream cake for her. She weighed in today and stayed the same. I managed to get in 2 hours of exercise today and mom walked for 30 minutes. Over all i think we are doing great. We are so used to our lifestyle change that most of the time we dont even have to think about what we are going to eat, we just automatically make healthy choices.
I cant wait to see biggestloser tonight. I am so addicted to the show. It would be such a dream come true to meet Jillian. she is such an awesome personal trainer!!! She is so my inspiration and I hope that one day I can motivate and inspire atleast one person the way she has inspired me to become a better person emotionally and physically. 3 mars back to realitywell we are back from our trip to disney. I did pretty well, I definitly got in my exercise everyday!! The eating wasn't great but I didn't eat as healthy as I should have. The good news is I didn't gain anything while we were away!!!! But of course I didnt lose either..over all I am pretty happy with the way I handled myself on vacation!
My mom did awesome while I was away and of course we talked to each other everyday to make sure we were both doing the things we were supposed to. Have I said lately what a wonderful woman my mother is??? If not she is awesome, my grandfather is still in serious bad health and was put back in the hospital the day before we left for disney and since then has been moved to a nursing home. And yet through all the heartache she has had to endure throughout this contest she has stuck with the lifestyle changes and has continously lost weight and she did all of this because she didn't want to let me down and because she wants so badly for us to win a trip to LA....This woman is amazing and I am so mad at myself for never allowing us to become the friends we are today and for not realizing how great of a mom she really is!!! I just hope I am half the mom she is!!! I hope that Jadyn and I have a great relationship when she gets older, I missed out on alot not being close to my mom and I regret that now..... but the good thing is we are getting healthy together so that we can make up for those years we were so distant with each other. I really wish betty-sue and Ally were still on the biggest loser because I saw so much of my mom and me in them and I really wanted to see them win the show but such is life i guess!!
I am really sad that this contest is coming to an end next week, but just because the contest will be over doesnt mean we all have to quit this journey and go back to the way things were.. I know that for my mom and I we plan on reaching our goals and being the women we so want to be!!!
I wish us all the best!!!!!!! 2008 is our year  26 février finally!!well i finally lost on the scales!!! mom and I both lost 3lbs each. I was so excited that the scale started moving again.
We have both been very good about staying within calorie range, exercising and drinking our water.
I posted new pics of us and I can actually see a diffrence. Its so exciting to finally see results from all the hard work we have been putting into this. I hope that everyone is having such great results and fun that we are having. I am actually loving this and who knew eating right and exercising could acutally be fun!!!
I am signing up for the personal training course in april for my gym. So by June I will be helping and motivating people just like me.
I am sooooo excited and in shock that I actually want to be a personal trainer. I owe it all to Jillian. she is such an inspiration to me and so many others. I would so love to meet her and express my gratitude to her in person!!!
oh well, Im trying to get things ready for our trip on Thursday so I will probly not be blogging much the next few days but I will catch up on Sunday or Monday and let you know how our journey is going!! 24 février im loving this!!!!!!well i havent blogged in a few days, we have had alot going on trying to get ready for disneyworld this week. Tomorrow is our weigh-in and im hoping I start showing on the scale but if not I wont be upset. I went shopping today and was pleasantly surprised to find out I am a size smaller in everything!!!!! So I now realize that just because the scales aren't moving doesn't mean Im not making progress. I was so excited!!!!Mom and I continue to stay within our calorie range everyday and we also get in atleast 30 min of exercise a day. I have been trying to get 2 hours in a day and I was able to do it 3 days this past week. Im gonna try for 4 days this week. Im kinda sad that this challange will be coming to an end very soon. I hope that everyone will still continue on their journey to get healthy just as we are.
I will let you know our results after our weigh-in tomorrow and I also plan on posting new pics sometime tomorrow. I have to take one of my mom first!!! she looks soooo good. I am so proud of her. 20 février blah......Its really hard to eat and exercise when your sick... We have been visiting the hospital so much that mom and I are now sick. Which is very frustrating because after the weigh-in on Monday I was planning on working out harder and longer this week to see if it would make a diffrence. So I hope that I feel better tomorrow so I can get back on track, at this rate I am not going to make my 15lb loss goal for this challange. I know our chances of being picked are very slim and this point we are just doing this for ourselves. Its not so much about the contest anymore. I have said many many times I am so thankful for this challange because it has forever changed our lives and has brought us some much closer together. That in itself makes us winners!!!
I also have another test coming up next weekend, we are taking our daughter to Disney World for the first time and I am sure there will be lots of temptations. Being there is really gonna show that i am on the right track.
I am very proud of the progress we have made up to this point and I am soooo proud of my mom. She is my inspiration. anyone who was facing losing her dad and staying at the hospital around the clock and still managed to keep on track and lose 20lbs is awesome!!! She says she didnt want to let me down, she is so wonderful and I hate that it has taken this challange to make me see that.
We are seeing this thru and we are going to continue on until we reach our weightloss goals no matter how long it takes, we are gonna miss this challange when its over though. We have met some truely wonderful people on this journey.
We wish everyone the best of luck!!!! Thanks for all the encouraging words and support.
18 février so frustrated!!!!What the heck is going on???? I did everything I was supposed to do this week and I lost nothing. I guess its better than gaining, its just very frustrating. Mom lost 3 which is great!!! She has lost a total of 20lbs. I am so excited for her.
I just wish I was having the same results as mom. Oh well, I will continue to do what I have been doing and hopefully I will start making more progress soon.
I know I shouldn't get upset since I stayed the same but its so hard not to wonder what I am doing wrong.
If anyone has any ideas please please share your thoughts with me.
I am going to try even harder this week and hopefully next Monday's weigh-in will have diffrent results than todays.
Oh well, im going to bed to sleep the disappointment off. Tomorrow is a new day!
17 février lazy sundayNot much excitement today. It has been cold and rainy today so we just stayed in which means no exercise. Mom is sick so no exercise for her either. For once I didnt get all my calories in, first time since I started this challange. Mom also didnt get hers in because she was sick. We are weighing in tomorrow, I so hope we do well.
I have been looking at alot of other challengers pages and everyone is doing so well with their weightloss, ours is coming off a little slower which is ok, atleast its coming off.
I cant say enough about how this challange has been such a blessing for us. I wish everyone the best.
16 février still on trackWe are still in the game! we have been staying in calorie range and getting in some form of exercise everyday. We weigh in on Monday, cant wait to see what happens. My goal for this next week is to try and start working out twice a day and see how that goes. Mom's goal is to start walking again now that things are going a little better with my grandfather.
I must say it is getting so much easier to make good choices while eating. It is now like part of our lives. I am amazed what an easy transition it was to change to a healthier lifestyle. I know that this is going to be a forever thing for us and we are not going to go back to our old habits when this contest is over. We are loving our new changes, so I know they are here to stay. 12 février I love the biggest loser!!I always seem to be so much more motivated after the bl on tuesday nights. I am so addicted to the show, I love Jillian and I thought it was so wonderful of her to bring in her mom to talk to her team.
As for my team, we are going strong!! stayed within calorie range again today and both of us managed to get in some exercise.
We also got great news about my grandfather, looks like he has turned a corner and they have taken him off the hospice list. He is alert, talking and even wanting food :) God truely answers prayers and is such an awesome God. Thanks to all of you for your prayers 11 février yeah!!!!yeah!!!! we had our weigh-in today and mom lost 4lbs and I lost 2lbs. You have no idea how happy that made us. I think we have finally found our way back. We are still within calorie range even eating hospital food everyday(lol)
We are staying strong and keeping each other motivated and accountable. I have called my mom so many times this week I lost count, just to make sure she was staying within her range and getting her exercise in. It's amazing how many ways you can find to exercise without equipment. I know that the people at the hospital think we are nuts
 but you have to make the best out of what you have right??I am just glad we are back in the game!!! like I said many weeks ago, WE ARE IN IT TO WIN IT!!!!! 9 février hanging in thereI know I havent been posting like I should, but we are still hanging in there. we are still staying within calorie range and still getting some form of exercise everyday. My grandfather is gradually getting worse, but we are staying strong and hanging in there.
I am hoping that we show a loss on the scales on Monday!!! since last week we stayed the same. Its very frustrating when you do all the things your supposed to and the stinkin scale doesnt move!!!!
I am happy that we are just still in the game!!
Wishing everyone the best!! May God Bless all of you :)
6 février more bad news!!!Well considering all of the bad news we have been getting I am so amazed with our weigh-ins this week. we stayed the same no loss or no gain. could of been bad considering the stress we have been under. Hopefully next week we will show a loss.
We got the news yesterday that my grandfather now has pneumonia and the Dr. have pretty much said that he is at the end of his life and that we should just let him go. So we have decided to do just that.... we are letting him go. they will be sending in to hospice in the next few days to stay until he goes to be with the good Lord. Please pray for my family.
I am so amazed at what a strong woman my mother is!!! she is keeping everyone together and still trying to lose weight. I asked her why not just put it on the back burner until all of this is over and she said that she made a commitment to me and this challange and to herself and she is going to see it to the end because she doesnt want to let me down!! Know if thats not a superwoman then I dont know what is.
I am greatful to have her in my life.
Ok back to to reason I am blogging, I have still managed to get my exercise in during all of this and so has mom, whenever she visits the hospital she takes the stairs and parks far away so that she can get her walks in.
Once again can I just say how very proud I am of her!!! She is the greatest!
3 février things getting betterwell things are finally turning around with grandfather. Mom and I are still on the right track and hopefully we will see good results at weigh-in tomorrow. I miss not blogging everyday so I am really trying to get back in the habit.
I am working out twice a day now and it is actually going pretty well. Mom and I have been doing great with calories everyday but have been slacking in the journal keeping. We are just taking it one day at a time and really trying to get back on our routines. We are still keeping each other accountable which is a huge thing for us!! We have gotten so much closer since this challange has begun and I am so excited. I see so many changes with my mom and I am so very proud of her.
stay tuned to see what happens at weigh-in tomorrow!! 30 janvier finding our way backWell nothing has changed as far as my grandfather. But mom and I are really trying to get back on track. Its gonna be a long haul with my grandfather so we are trying to get back to some sort of "normal" routine with exercise. I have started working out twice a day to see if that is going to make a diffrence in my numbers on the scale. Even though I haven't been posting as much as I would like, we are still within calorie range everyday and both getting some form of exercise in everyday.
I loved the show last night. I love the fact that even though Jillian is a hard core trainer that she still has a heart and loves the people she trains. I cried with her! I love her!!! I would love to get the chance to meet her and tell her in person what a wonderful motivator she is. But Im sure the chances of that happening are one in a million since there are so many couples entered in the contest. Anyways, Im glad to be back on track and I am hoping I will start dropping bigger numbers on the scales. We shall see.
Thanks to everyone for the kind words about my grandfather.
wish you all the best 27 janvier still hanging inwe are still hanging strong!! staying within calorie range everyday(and thats hard to do with hospital food). I have even managed to get exercise in here and there by taking stairs everywhere I go at the hosp. Mom not getting much exercise at all because she is having to help so much with my grandfather. We weigh in tomorrow so im hoping we have a loss considering the week we have had.
I think all of this has really shown us that we are stronger than we thought and we will succeed this time!! if anyone reads our blogs please keep our family in your prayers.
Thanks and God Bless all of you! 25 janvier we passed the test :)well we did it!!! my grandfather made it thru surgery and we also managed to stay within calorie range for the entire week!! of course we didnt get to exercise because we have been at hosp everyday but we didnt let the stress interfer with our progress. I think we are finally on the path we have been trying to get on for years.
I am so proud of us both and especially for my mom staying strong thru this whole ordeal.
Stay tuned to see what other obstacles we conquer together!! 22 janvier the test begins.well our true test begins. my grandfather fell today and has to have a partial hip replacement in the next couple of days. so what does that mean for us,,,,,well hosp food, lots of added stress,,,,,and little to no exercise. This is going to put what we have learned to the major test and see if this makes us or breaks our success. the next little while is going to be very hard because after surgery then we are facing rehab. So away we go!!!
of course we didnt even come close to calories because we sat at hosp all day, and of course no exercise either. but we will get past this together.
21 janvier what????well we weighed in tonight at ww. mom lost 4 and i lost 1. she has now lost a total of 13 and im at 4. its so frustrating!!! I feel like im doing what I am supposed to but the weight just isnt coming off like mom. My goal for the week is to shake things up a bit and try some diffrent things to see if it makes anymore of a diffrence. I hate having PCOS its so difficult to lose weight no matter what you do!
I will not let this get me down though, 4lbs is 4lbs and its weight that is gone from my body!! I just have to figure out whats gonna work for me. obviously what Im doing isnt.
we both stayed within our calorie range and I worked out to biggest loser cardio blast for 50 min. I did the whole dvd, i was very impressed with myself.
we are so excited about the biggest loser tomorrow night!!! I LOVE TUESDAYS!!
Hope everyone is doing well on their journey. I look at alot of the pages that the couples have come up with and they are so awesome, I just wish I could do most of that stuff, Im not very good at all the graphics and stuff. we are lucky we even have a page lol :)
well, lets try and have a great week, stayed tuned to see if I figure out whats going wrong with my weightloss :) |
