Ooops it's been awhile since I have updated everyone,been a really busy life the last month...Martha is now working 2 jobs and I am doing everything I can to keep myself preoccupied when she is not home or we are not working out....We recently purchased the the Biggest Looser Power Sculpt Workout Video and are really excited about working out to it every morning...
Yesterday I tried on a shirt I have'nt been able to wear in two years and it fit!!!!I screamed and cried and jumped up and down,it was a hug accomplishment for me and I am so proud of myself.... I have'nt fealt this great in years!!!!!
We have increased our workouts now that we see such great results,and the weather is getting nicer so soon we will be able to walk a few times a week as well....I am also taking the time to do extra sit up each morning and I am now up to 60 each time,wich does'nt seem like alot but for me it is a shit load!!! My goal is to reach 100 a day and then maybe more if I feel I can....
I am multitasking right now and it sounds like the washer is done,so I need to get the clothes in the dryer and start folding....wanna come fold all the socks?????That is the worst!!!!

Happy Loosing

I just wanna say a special Thank you and Hugs to My Partner,your Support and Encouragement means more to me than I could ever explain,I am soooo Proud of you!!!!
Love You Barpa!!!

Mellissa's Day..........

Today was the first of many more days at the gym.....I was roaring and ready to go today,it was absolutely a feeling of greatness when I was done...:)My Goal for today was to workout for 1 mile(wich if I were to go for a walk would almost kill me!!)I made it just over 2 miles!!!!!I started out on the treadmill for 1/2 a mile then went to the bike for another 1/2 mile I then finished with just over a mile on the sit down bike (whatever theyre called?)Some of you do 5 times as much,but for me it was a huge step,a big accomplishment!!I could'nt be prouder of myself...:)My Goal for tomarrow is 2 miles..I am starting easy so I don't overdo it....But I feel really good about myself and know I could have done more today,but did'nt wanna push it,so each day my goal will increase and variety will be part of my workout each time.Oh yeah,we are also signing up for water aerobics,it's a class for ladies like us,so I am really excited cause swimming has always been easy for me when it comes to loosing weight.

The Hubby and My Son went with us and the highlight of the time at the gym was when Warren stood by me on my last 5 minutes on the bike and says to me,"Mom I am so proud of you,you are doing so good"Later on after I was in the shower the thought of what he said to me brought me to tears...So not only am I doing this for me but I Love knowing how proud everyone who loves me is...:)

*Muah*

These are pictures of us the gym today....along with our "Get up and GO!"Workout Partner Tasha....Mellissa's Goal for today was to work out all together 1 mile and I am so proud of myself and made 2 1/2 miles,my first day,I am amazed!!:)Martha's Goal for today was 2 miles and she did 3 miles,wooo hooo!!We were going to weigh ourselves today ,but the scale at the fitness center was'nt equipt for our weight....So we will weigh in next week,if we can't find a scale here soon....

We are both beginners at making a change in our lives and it's been 3 days since we started eating healthier and working out..It's not a big progress,but it is a start and we all have to start some where!This is the start to a new life for both of us and as hard as it's going to be we are ready emotionaly to take what comes at us and work through it together!!
I could go for hours and days,but just wanted to speak a little about the change we have taken on and the goals we have set for ourselves...

Have a Wonderful Weekend everyone!!

Happy Loosing:)
