Despite dealing with the pain left after a serious car crash, 49-year-old Priscilla Hyclak of Mentor knows she has to get moving if she wants to reach her goal of a 60-pound weight loss. She's motivated, though, because the widow's children remind her how much they need their mother.

Feeling better about Saturday

Wasn't looking forward to Saturday not sure but feeling pretty good abou it.  Hoping for at least the six (6) pounds I gained.  Crazy week but fun, finally working toward being on my own with the new job.  Only forward no reason to worry about those things I cannot change.

The never ending story.....

If this was five to ten years ago oh heck two months ago, I would be sitting in front of the tv with a TUB of chip dip and a full bag of chips munching away....I really hate the continuous kick in the back end.  I really am a nice person so WHY?  Okay done venting for today, I think hope everyone else is having a great day!!!!!!

Wk of 03.14.2011

Well things have been going well.....
 
Found a new (used) clothing store and it has great stuff, actually tried and on fit into smaller sizes.
 
Even looked good in a tighter fitting top.  Not sure if I have actually lost any weight but I really feel better.  The Zumba gold is going well.

Sunday

Think I have had some good days since the weight in - was very disappointed with the article but maybe that will be some motivation too :)

Did some Tai Chi today at home and begin some Zumba classes on Tuesday with Char on Thursday.  Maybe this next weigh in will look better for me.

Not worried too much about winning contest but would love to have another 40 lbs off (now 46) off by end of contest.

Thanks everyone for the encouragement - see you all in a couple of weeks.

Today March 3, 2011

When will I feel good again - this "bug" has a hold and won't let loose - will have to break down and go to dr I guess.

Did some Tai Chi today but wore me out since I can't breathe well - but at least I am moving

Here's to getting better soon - PLEASE

Good Day Two

Disappointed that Char's class won't start till Thursday - trying to find some other exercise outlet's too

Wish there were places to dance did you know if you you could burn almost 500 calories an hour dancing - no wonder Kelly Osborne ended up looking so good :)
