So this year I am going to lose 70 lbs. Yes that is right 70. That would leave me right at 130lbs. I am psyched cause I need to do this. So to give me the extra push I joined a group of people at my work and put up 50.00 which was what it took to get into the challenge. If I don't lose at least 5% of my weight I am going to have to pay a fine of 20.00 and then I lose. Either way, in the end whoever the winner is gets like 80% of the pot and the penalty moneys and whoever comes in second gets the other 20% . It is a great deal.
I hope that I can get down I am staying at 200lbs cause I can't seem to keep a hold on my diet..I also have super skinny friends who don't help me at all. I am trying to make myself stay on the diet I am doing a low calories diet, I am also doing zumba 2 days a week I need to fill another day with a work out but I have no time. I am super excited because i intend to make it the 12 weeks and at least be 175lbs. 160lbs at the least. I am working very hard and I am hoping to meet my goal.
The kids and I have all had a bad bought of sickness since just after thanksgiving. The head crud, the stomach crud the chest crud you name the crud and we had it.
I am so glad we are almost done with cruds. I am so sick of being sick. I hope we don't catch nothing else. Emma has a horibly runny nose this week and she just got over ear infections. I am hoping this wont become a repeated thing... nasal crud, ear infections, nasal crud again and then back to ear infections cause that would just get way out of hand.
Just after christmas we went to visit Buddy's mom and step dad. By we I mean me and the girls he never goes so we took the almost 4 hour trip to war west virginia. I love visiting his mother we talk and since she has his niece and 2 nephews the kids play. His one nephew is the same age as Emma and his niece and other nephew are a year older and a year younger than kailey. They all get along with each other pretty well.
I am going to try and take the kid's back up there for his nieces birthday party in Feb. It is really funny how the kids all have birthdays in a roll,Dakota (Buddy's youngest brothers son) was born in November Briar (his sisters first) was born in December, Kailey (our first) in January, Olivia (sisters second) in February, then on the second wave it was Reason (his middle brothers son) in September, Emma in (our second) Nov, and Slaton (sisters 3rd) in December... these last three were born in the same year, but the first 4 are all a year apart, in the same order lol which is odd. I guess none of us can have spring/summer babies lol.
I have been trying to get my truck fixed it has some minor issues but I want them resolved. I hope that, that gets done soon. Kaileys 7th Birthday went well. I felt bad cause no one who was supposed to come came, people who werent coming showed up but they were all family members.
I havent been posting because of all the sickness but I am going to try to get back to posting on a weekly basis. I hope that I don't stop again.
