My advice......trust the transformation process, never give up, keep going...no matter what! Anita ...Just Finished My Essay
I am happy about what I have a accomplished. It's been a blessing and a rewarding experience. I was reading what I said about myself in the before picture for Assignment One. I was yelling at that person in the picture. At one point I wrote "What are you smiling about?" "WAKE UP". "No wonder you can't get a date". I was so disgusted back then. I cried that day. But I could not help but giggle and some of ...MY 18 WEEK TRANSFORMATION PICTURES

I posted this in the forum but decided to put in my blog so I will always remember. I had a humbling experience today and wanted to share. So bare with me. I volunteered to help put together food baskets at my church for people who could not afford a Thanksgiving meal. I had every intention of just helping out with the baskets...nothing else. But my heart kept after me to help deliver the baskets. So I decided at the last minute to help with...WooHoo - Rollin with T2 in 2009

I was feeling kind of down because I know my after picture is not going to be done professionally because of finances. I sent a PM to a dear friend who offered me insight. And I just read a post from Kathy in the forum area that just made my day. "ARE YOU GUYS MIND READERS.....OR WHAT!" Back in a great mood again because it is not about the picture it's about the journey. The "T" is the place to be...I DID IT! I DID IT! I GET TO.....

Amazing Day Already! I decided to skip the early AM workout to go and stand in line to vote early. I got up 4:30 AM. Left the apartment at 5:50AM with my snacks, book, blanket, scarf, etc. Got to the voting area at 6:00AM. What a relief, the Mall was opened and I did not have to embrace the cold weather. I was number 16 in line. Woohoo. But I had a two hour wait for the 8:00AM start time. But it was worth it. I was out of there at 8:10...THE TRANSFORMATION - October 29, 2008 WEEK 18-WOOHOO!

Going back down memory lane. Is it possible? Sure it is. Are any of you guys old enough to remember this? “The Presidential Physical Fitness Award” I will never forget this day. I was in the 7th grade. We were honored by the mayor of our town. And that was a big deal back then. Yes….I was a high school basketball player (See picture). My twin and I had been playing the game s...THE TRANSFORMATION - October 25, 2008 WEEK 17
Life got in the way again today but....I did workout in the afternoon instead of early AM. That was tough. My body was crying. It's so use to working out earlier. God Bless to those of you who workout later in the day.Completed upperbody workout, abs, cardio and stretch....THE TRANSFORMATION - October 24, 2008 WEEK 17
I missed my workout this day. This is the first missed workout since the challenge. I didn't stew over it. Stuff happens. My body probably enjoyed the break! ...THE TRANSFORMATION - October 23, 2008 WEEK 17
I've gotten behind on my blogs. I did cardio and stretch this day. ...THE TRANSFORMATION - OCTOBER 22, 2008 - WEEK 17
I decided to switch up by lowerbody workout this morning because of the dread factor. And this time I had fun. By switching my routine I found it amazing how strong my legs have become. All those sessions of pyramid cycle actually improved my stength and endurance in my legs. I can do reps longer. I was happy about that. My new motto:"IF YOU DO THE SAME THING OVER AND OVER AGAIN YOU WON'T GROW AND THAT'S NOT THE GOAL" It's goi...THE TRANSFORMATION - OCTOBER 21, 2008 - WEEK 17
