6/17/10- my first time

get your mind out of the gutter! i guess you are wondering what the title of this entry means? well, i have decided to participate in the c'ville womens 4 miler. this will be my very first race! i am excited, scared and nervous all at the sametime. i have NEVER wanted to do anything like this before, but i think it will be a great way to celebrate reaching my goal. you all know what the goal is, right? 50 lbs. in one year....only 10lbs. to go! the registration for the race opens next week and from what i understand, it fills up quick. i would like to complete the race in an hour, not sure if thats a realistic goal. i've been reading an online guide on walking. it gives tips on posture, stretching, etc. everyone knows how to walk, but are you walking the right way? i'm learning that i'm not. completing this race means a new beginning for me...physically as well as emotionally. i'm walking into areas i've never been before. not sure where i'm going, but with God leading the way, i KNOW i will be just fine.

all of me,

down..set..hut!

i am on my way to losing the last 15lbs needed to reach my goal of 50 lbs in one year. i have 2 months to do this. i am calling this my "60 day blitz". i'm sure a blitz is not suppose to last for 2 months, but i'm calling the shots here. if you remember from past entries, i am not weighing myself until aug. 1. i know what you are thinking...how will she know if she is losing weight? thats a great question; glad you asked. at this point, i am in tune with my body. i'm not always on point, but i would say that i have a pretty good idea. of course, there are certain times that i dont know what my body is doing!( i think all the ladies can say AMEN to that) listen, if i dont lose 50 lbs. exactly, i'm not gonna be mad. i really am learning that its not about the number, but always moving forward and doing my best to reach my goals. i'm not gonna lie, it would be nice to see that scale with 50 less lbs. on it.

i will make the plea again....WHO"S WITH ME??!!!

all of me,
