Week 4: Plus Size Bloggers Tracking Challenge: 4 Weeks To A Better YOU

2/28/11  187.0 lbs   -4.1lbs (-4.6 for the challenge)

WOW! What a crazy 4 weeks!  But I made it here.  I didn’t lose 10 pounds as planned, but I still did great with all the obstacles I ran into!   I am at the lightest right now that I have been since my weight gain when I was pregnant with my daughter 7 years ago! [...]

Mid Week Update….Need to change the plan a bit

As soon as the doctor took my sock off (it was holding in the swelling), my ankle immediately ballooned!  It ended up twice this size!  can you believe it wasn't broken??

Well, as usual, things don’t always go as planned. The next couple weeks are going to be rough. I have to change my whole routine. I not only have 2 very sick kids at home with pneumonia, I did my best Monday evening to ruin my ankle. I finished up my kettlebell class Monday night, [...]

Plus Size Bloggers Weigh In: November 1

11/1/2010 - 193.6 (+0.3 lbs)

Up and Down.   Yep, it’s up again….not much, but I am right back where I started for this challenge.   Jeesh! I’ve been active.  I have my workouts going on every day.  I have to add some stuff apparently.   I’ll try to do some additional mini workouts at home on the rest days. I can’t help [...]

Welcome Fall!!!

Wow!  I took last week off from posting since the former contest ended.  I only end up posting once a week anyway…I just can’t imagine anyone wanting to read more than that from me.   I don’t have the most witty and exciting posts so I don’t feel it necessary to torture any potential readers [...]

Time to Make the Change Happen

First things first.  My weigh in for the PlusSizeBloggers Challenge.  This week I am back down -2.0 lbs.  I still don’t have my new phone/camera yet. I’ll have ti later today actually so no pic. I know I am not going to hit the 15 pounds I originally wanted, but that’s ok. I have a [...]

Tuesday Weigh In – Headed the Wrong Way

06222010

I’m headed in the wrong direction…..temporarily!  Well, I knew it would be a tough weigh in.  I knew it would be a gain. I know what I did right, what I had no control over, and what I did wrong. Last week started out great…until Friday.  I woke up with a horrible sore throat. So [...]

Kicking Off the Summer 15 Challenge!

204.1 on 6/15/2010

Wow, what a horrid weekend.  I was nothing but LAZY!  I also ate way too much.   I don’t really know what happened.  I had some of my planned workout day screwed up, because I forgot about a tennis lesson on Wednesday and it threw the rest of the week into oblivion. Then instead of being [...]
